Proposed FCC rules to more than double SCS spectrum are wildly bullish for AST SpaceMobile and SpaceX, the only two SCS license holders. AST trades below the value of its Ligado rights; its agreed deal has almost no chance of FCC blockage despite objections. AST could return to its highs sooner rather than later if the November 9 call clarifies production and Blue Origin keeps moving New Glenn toward the pad. New Glenn is the value unlock. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com 

Anterix's 900 MHz spectrum looks undervalued against the WSJ-reported $8 billion cash SpaceX will pay for 800 MHz, compared with EchoStar's $3.59 billion option to buy that spectrum. x.com 

Entravision is hard to buy because its ad tech business is decelerating, whatever the multiple. That is the reply to @leevalueroach, who calls the stock deep value and the market drunk at the wheel. x.com 

SpaceX's valuation front-ran a great business that still has two hard dependencies, and the stock is repricing the hype. Starlink Mobile's V2 satellites, deploying from 2027, depend entirely on Starship cadence, and its urban 5G story needs EchoStar spectrum that transfers only in November 2027. The real moat is polar and high-latitude coverage, shown by a Deutsche Telekom deal covering 140M subscribers. The stock is down 50% from its $225 June peak at 60 times sales. x.com  x.com 

SpaceX's push to become a major mobile carrier makes a carrier-backed direct-to-cell oligopoly around AST SpaceMobile increasingly likely. Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile and dozens of foreign operators have every incentive to preserve competition rather than hand a vertically integrated rival that much influence, and AST's wholesale model lets them extend networks, keep subscribers and share the economics. Execution and launch cadence remain critical, but the reward is massive. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  … Show more

AST SpaceMobile faces growing satellite-cellular competition beyond Starlink Mobile, which, per Starlink, agreed to acquire a nationwide US low-band spectrum portfolio. A later 5,105-satellite direct-to-cell system from Amazon tied to Globalstar is also a threat. AST's best chance is giving AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile a fighting chance against them; that reliable Starlink Mobile service is a long way off doesn't matter. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com 

SpaceX buying Grain's spectrum is not bullish for AST SpaceMobile, with only secondary angles that read positively. SpaceX has spent roughly $26 billion on spectrum, so AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile should spend to defend their moat instead of downplaying Musk; letting Grain buy spectrum only to flip it to SpaceX likely ranks among the most self-destructive management moves ever. AST's change-of-control filing came at an unusual time, likely ahead of this news, suggesting more than housekeeping. … Show more

Entravision is nearing a valuation worth loving as emotional traders sell an already hated stock and AppLovin adds to the fear. At this lower price, its valuation is becoming undeniably more interesting. x.com 

SpaceX remains unattractive: its reported $8 billion spectrum deal covers only a tiny fraction of what a nationwide wireless network would require, even with expensive satellites that last just five years. x.com 

SpaceX should post huge numbers in 2027 as Starlink's recurring revenue grows alongside a much faster-growing SI business. Kalshi Finance reports 13.6 million Starlink subscribers, up from 7.2 million a year ago. At $69 monthly revenue per user, Starlink is generating close to $938 million a month; it is SpaceX's second-fastest-growing business at 69% year over year, behind SI at 830%. x.com
