1. On October 8, SpaceX announced the acquisition of an 800MHz low-frequency spectrum portfolio covering the entire United States. The company plans to integrate it with satellite and terrestrial networks to directly expand its mobile communications business. This frequency band will help improve coverage indoors and in remote areas, strengthening expectations for competition against Verizon's mobile users and enterprise communications business.
2. On October 8, SpaceX received approval to deploy up to 15 thousand mobile communication satellites, though its spectrum transaction is still pending approval by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission. AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon all weakened in after-hours trading, putting pressure on the telecom operator sector.
