BUZZ-US mobile base station operators' share prices soar after SpaceX acquires spectrum
On Friday, after SpaceX's SPCX.O completed a nationwide acquisition of low-frequency spectrum, shares of U.S. mobile tower operators surged, enabling Elon Musk's Starlink Mobile to challenge traditional wireless giants. Crown Castle (CCI.N) jumped 11.2% to $76.61, on track for its largest single-day gain since March 2020. American Tower (AMT.N) rose 7% to $178.34, poised for its biggest increase in two years, while SBA Communications (SBAC.O) climbed 6.2% to $180.58. Tower stocks rallied as investors bet SPCX’s ambitions in wireless service could drive new demand for terrestrial infrastructure, leading to sharp declines in the shares of telecom giants AT&T (T.N), Verizon (VZ.N), and T-Mobile US (TMUS.O). JPMorgan said the deal was “incrementally positive” for tower operators, noting it could require deploying towers, rooftop sites, and small cells, while broader urban competition would call for a significant boost in terrestrial infrastructure and spectrum. Amid these developments, CCI is down about 14% year-to-date, SBAC is down roughly 6.5%, and AMT is up nearly 2% in 2026. By comparison, the S&P 500 Real Estate Investment Trusts Index (.SPLRCREC) has gained about 6% so far this year.
TSMC's Q3 Revenue Represents a Slightly Larger-Than-Typical Beat, Wedbush Says
10:36 AM EDT, 10/09/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing's (TSM) Q3 revenue of NT$1.494 trillion ($46.77 billion) represented a roughly 3% beat versus the brokerage's prior estimate and consensus, compared with a 1% beat in the previous quarter, Wedbush said in a Friday note. With revenue ahead of the range, Wedbush expects the quarterly gross margin to at least meet the 66% midpoint of TSMC's 65% to 67% guidance and is more likely to exceed its 66.0% estimate given better utilization rates, according to the research note. Looking ahead, Wedbush expects Q4 sales of NT$1.599 trillion and sales growth of 41% in US dollars or 43% in Taiwanese dollars. Additionally, its gross margin estimate of 65.3% sits below the consensus estimate of 66.1%, with Wedbush saying it would not be surprised if Q4 gross-margin guidance ticks modestly lower on account of headwinds the chipmaker has previously mentioned. Wedbush maintained its outperform rating with an NT$3,000 price target. Price: 453.01, Change: -4.98, Percent Change: -1.09
