ADT's Trading Volume Surges 35.24% to $170 Million, Securing 479th Spot in Daily Rankings

On May 23, 2025, ADT's trading volume reached $170 million, marking a 35.24% increase from the previous day. This surge placed ADT at the 479th position in the day's trading volume rankings. ADT's stock price rose by 0.86%.

ADT has introduced a new feature that allows its smart security system, ADT+, to operate solely on a cellular connection, eliminating the need for Wi-Fi. This innovation is particularly beneficial for individuals who have recently moved and have not yet set up internet access, or for those living in areas without broadband options. The cellular-only option is available through ADT's direct channel and offers customers the choice between a DIY or professional installation. For an additional $5 monthly charge, the ADT+ system will use cellular as its primary communication method. If Wi-Fi is later established, customers can contact ADT to validate the connection and remove the cellular charge from future bills.

Despite operating without Wi-Fi, customers will still have access to the ADT+ app experience and the Secure and Smart service tiers. However, certain connected devices such as cameras and smart thermostats will not be available until a Wi-Fi connection is established. This update provides more flexibility and accessibility for customers, especially for those who need immediate protection without waiting for Wi-Fi setup. It also supports ADT's broader goal of bringing smart security to more homes, regardless of their internet connectivity.
