Keywords: Terafab changes, chip sector decline, high-level pullback
1. On October 8, Elon Musk confirmed that Tesla and SpaceX will build and operate Terafab themselves, only considering letting TSMC sublease part of the facilities; although Intel will continue participating in the project, its specific role in wafer manufacturing and foundry remains uncertain.
2. On October 8, rising oil prices and long-term US Treasury yields led to broad weakness in technology and semiconductor stocks, with Intel, NVIDIA, AMD, and other chip stocks coming under pressure simultaneously.
3. On October 7, Microsoft announced pre-order information for the high-end Surface Laptop Ultra. The flagship model is equipped with an NVIDIA processor instead of an Intel solution, increasing competitive pressure on Intel in the high-end personal computer market.
4. On October 8, following a significant increase in Intel's stock price earlier this year, shares saw a continuous decline, resulting in increased short-term valuation correction pressure.

SpaceX to acquire nationwide 800MHz spectrum portfolio pending FCC approval
SpaceX (SPCX.US) announced on Thursday that it has reached an agreement to acquire a portfolio of low-frequency spectrum licenses covering the entire United States, enabling it to directly compete with traditional wireless communication giants nationwide. While Starlink Mobile’s existing global 2 GHz mid-band spectrum will provide high bandwidth capacity, this new spectrum will allow its signals to penetrate obstacles. This move accelerates Elon Musk’s ambitious plan to bypass traditional wireless infrastructure and deliver cellular network connectivity directly to smartphones from Earth’s orbit. The deal involves acquiring 100% of a nationwide 800 MHz spectrum portfolio owned by private equity firm Grain Management, and is still subject to regulatory approval by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). In addition, the FCC this week approved Starlink Mobile’s application for a second-generation satellite constellation, authorizing SpaceX to deploy 15,000 satellites worldwide optimized for the 2 GHz band. Following the announcement, shares of US telecom companies fell in after-hours trading, while SpaceX (SPCX.US) shares rose by over 1.7%.
