Shares of US wireless carriers are trading lower after SpaceX agreed to purchase low-band 800 MHz spectrum licenses from Grain Capital, which Grain recently acquired from T-Mobile. SpaceX also says Starlink will build a terrestrial wireless network to supplement satellite with indoor coverage.
After several years of unprecedented success, T-Mobile’s reputation with consumers is as strong as ever. In an increasingly rational competitive environment, the firm will continue growing market share while increasing revenue per customer.
T-Mobile will eventually need to step up network investments to keep pace with AT&T and Verizon, which have dense fixed-line networks at their disposal. A costly acquisition could be necessary.
