T-Mobile, Sprint show signs of impending merger

The long-rumored and much-anticipated merger of T-Mobile and Sprint merger may be happening soon. Both companies have decided to forego the investor question-and-answer sessions that typically take place after the carriers release their quarterly earnings.

T-Mobile struck first Oct 23 releasing its third-quarter earnings a day earlier than expected and, instead of a live Q&A with telecommunication analysts, the No. 3 wireless carrier opted for a video blog starring CEO John Legere. "With all the rumors and speculation out there we decided that we wanted to make sure you all saw and focused on our Q3 results," he said in the video. Also on Oct 23, two days before its own second-quarter results are released, Sprint said it will not host a conference call Wednesday.
