••3. Consistency of the profitability
4. Piotroski F-Score

Guru Investment Theses on American Tower Corp

Spiros Segalas Commentary on American Tower - Jul 10, 2017

Another detractor to Fund performance, American Tower (NYSE:AMT), which operates broadcast and communications towers, wireless towers, and distributed antenna systems, was hurt by its sensitivity to interest rate increases and exposure to currency translation headwinds. We eliminated the position during the period.

From Spiros Segalas (Trades, Portfolio)' Harbor Capital Appreciation Fund Managers' second quarter 2017 commentary.
