Is Apple's $1.5B Satellite Deal the Future?In the rapidly evolving world of satellite communications, a transformative partnership has emerged between tech giant Apple and satellite operator Globalstar. This landmark $1.5 billion agreement has the potential to reshape the way we connect in remote and underserved regions, inspiring questions about the future of global connectivity. At the heart of this deal lies Globalstar's commitment to develop and operate a state-of-the-art mobile satellite services (MSS) network. Backed by Apple's substantial infrastructure prepayment of up to $1.1 billion and a $400 million equity investment, Globalstar is poised to enhance the reliability and coverage of emergency satellite communications for iPhone users worldwide. This strategic alliance not only demonstrates Apple's long-term vision for satellite-based connectivity but also positions Globalstar as a dominant player in an industry that is expected to witness a surge in activity in the coming decade. As the satellite communications sector braces for the launch of an estimated 50,000 satellites into low-Earth orbit, this Globalstar-Apple partnership stands out as a game-changer. By dedicating up to 85% of its network capacity to Apple, Globalstar is solidifying its role as a critical infrastructure provider, catering to the growing demand for seamless connectivity in remote and underserved regions. This move, coupled with Globalstar's plans to expand its satellite constellation and ground infrastructure, suggests a future where satellite-based services become increasingly integrated into our everyday lives. The financial implications of this deal are equally compelling. Globalstar projects that its annual revenue will more than double in the year following the launch of the expanded satellite services, marking a significant improvement from its recent financial performance. Furthermore, the company's ability to retire its outstanding senior notes and secure favorable adjustments to its funding agreement highlights the transformative nature of this partnership, positioning Globalstar for long-term growth and stability in the evolving satellite communications landscape.

Verizon (VZ) bullish scenario:The technical figure Triangle can be found in the daily chart in the US company Verizon Communications Inc. (VZ). Verizon Communications Inc., commonly known as Verizon, is an American multinational telecommunications conglomerate and a corporate component of the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Verizon's mobile network is the largest wireless carrier in the United States, with 120.9 million subscribers as of the end of Q4 2020. The Triangle broke through the resistance line on 23/12/2022. If the price holds above this level, you can have a possible bullish price movement with a forecast for the next 29 days towards 40.32 USD. Your stop-loss order, according to experts, should be placed at 36.58 USD if you decide to enter this position. Verizon is expected to post earnings of $1.21 per share for the current quarter, representing a year-over-year change of -7.6%.

AT&T - Future Growth and DividendsAT&T (NYSE:T) shares recently fell by approximately 10% after the firm released its second-quarter earnings. Despite better-than-expected earnings per share and revenue, excitement was muted by cash flow issues. Following the current drop, AT&T's stock yields around 7.3 percent. Furthermore, AT&T is dirt cheap again, trading at approximately 7.4 times forward EPS expectations. The market may be overreacting because the most recent earnings report was strong, and the cash flow decrease is most likely a one-time occurrence. AT&T Financials Furthermore, the corporation has set a clear strategy for future growth over the next several years. Furthermore, AT&T is recession-proof and may profit from a management shuffle. AT&T's downside looks to be limited, and the stock is appealing in this environment. Multiple growth and other factors might cause AT&T's stock price to rise significantly from here while also paying a sizable dividend. AT&T announced non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.65, above average projections by $0.03. Revenue of $29.6 billion was also $130 million more than expected. During the quarter, the business added over 800,000 postpaid phone net adds and over 300,000 AT&T Fiber net adds. While AT&T raised its mobile service revenue forecast to 4.5-5 percent, it lowered its free cash flow forecast to the $14 billion range. The headline statistics for AT&T are impressive, but the cash flow drop is depressing. Cashflows are being impacted by heavy expenditures in 5G and working capital requirements. However, inflation is most likely a role, and when the economy recovers, AT&T's cash flow problems may be resolved rapidly. AT&T's figures were pretty strong. Revenues from standalone companies were $29.7 billion, up 2% from $26 billion in the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA increased by $175 million, or 1.7 percent, year on year. In the most recent quarter, standalone adjusted EPS climbed by 1 cent to 65 cents. Perhaps most critically, AT&T's core Wireless Service expanded by 4.6 percent year on year and is expected to rise similarly in 2022 and 2023. In addition, we observe certain FCF remarks implying that the decline in FCF is a transient event. While AT&T's performance have remained excellent, and the company has demonstrated persistence in exceeding consensus analyst predictions in recent quarters, this has not prevented the stock from underperforming its competitors. AT&T's stock has underperformed the market, falling nearly 32% in the previous five years. AT&T's nearest competition, Verizon (VZ), is up marginally over the same time period. T-Mobile US (TMUS) is also higher, while Comcast (CMCSA) has destroyed the competition over the previous five years. If we extend the picture further, we see that AT&T's is down by around one-third during the last 10 years. How much longer will shareholders have to wait for a genuine management revamp? For many years, AT&T's management has done nothing useful with the corporation. For decades, AT&T's stock has been worse than dead money, and it currently trades at the same price it did in 1996. AT&T has become extremely inefficient and has devolved into a bureaucracy that must be changed fast. AT&T requires new management to restore order and return the firm to growth and profitability. AT&T's previous regime, which we don't want. We'd like an expert. We are looking for someone who will offer a unique perspective and creativity to AT&T. We need someone to turn AT&T around and bring the firm back on track. A management revamp would likely be welcomed by the market. High Dividend Yield Furthermore, with its extremely low forward P/E multiple of 7.4, AT&T might experience a slight multiple expansion, resulting in a much higher stock price as time goes on. Even a P/E multiple of nine times, as Verizon has, would result in an increase of around 18% for AT&T. If the company's P/E multiple rises to 10, its share price will grow by around 30%. also,  because of the dividend and the potential for numerous expansions. We recommend owning AT&T

Alpha opportunity from modem and processor chips monopolySummary 3 years into Covid and the risk of recession starts to outplay the chip shortage story of semiconductor industry. With its unmovable monopoly status in its own specialties, we think there is alpha for Qualcomm against its semiconductor peers . Dominance in modem chips and smartphone processors, the company recently declared another victory as Samsung KRX:005930 gave up the plan of using the self-developed processor Exynos2300 and continue with the latest snapdragon SM8550 for the coming new galaxy S23. Just a few days earlier, another source has also shown that Apple NASDAQ:AAPL might not be able to develop their own 5G modem chip on time, which means until 2023 100% of apple products will continue to rely on Qualcomm for connectivity modem chips (instead of the previous forecast at 20%). Although the smartphone market is expected to go into a bear market for 1-2 years, Qualcomm business should still be able to maintain growth by expanding market share within . Another trend worth note taking is the rapid adoption of electric vehicles that has speeded up the development of smart-automobiles, which as a result dramatically increased the chips consumption for the automobile industry. Qualcomm infrastructure and experience in internet-of-things (IOT) application is going to give them a natural edge to make a monopoly again in car chips , which can be the growth story in the coming 2-3 years. Albeit claiming monopoly in modem and high-end mobile processor chips, there are plenty of challengers from Taiwan and China especially on the lower-end chips. Among the challengers, Mediatek from Taiwan is rapidly gaining market shares by producing chips for mid-to-low tier smartphones such as Oppo, Vivo and most models of Xiaomi. The price barrier from lower-end chip makers make it hard for Qualcomm to entering the broader IOT market especially for devices that do not require high efficiency and computational power. Trading discussion Given the mid to long term positive outlook of Qualcomm, we can trade QCOM from both a short term rebound angle, as well as long term investing perspective . The company is currently trading at PE of 13.5, which is lower than its semiconductor peers. Low PE stocks are more defensive against valuation squeeze under the current increasing interest rate environment. Here are QCOM’s peers current PE for reference: NASDAQ:AVGO : 23.9 NASDAQ:NVDA : 40.7 NASDAQ:AMD : 28.7 NYSE:TSM : 17.4 Technically speaking, QCOM is still under a bearish trend with the 20 days moving average running below the 50 days, and both pointing downward. The 50 days moving average is still the biggest upside resistance for QCOM with two previous breakout attempts on Apr-28 and May-31 both failed. Currently QCOM is flirting around the 50 days moving average again and we shall closely monitor if the breakout will be successful or not. Here are some technical levels one should pay attentions to: Downside support 118.23: Jun-23 dropped to a 52-weeks low 96.17: Jan-17 2020 pre-covid high, which was broken on Jul-30 2020 Upside resistance 136.39: Jul-8 attempt of breaking 50 days moving average 151.2: Apr-28 attempt of breaking 50 days moving average (also the current 250 days level) Note that short term traders and long term investors can see and use the above levels quite differently. For short term traders, the upside resistance can serve as entry when breakout for trend following, and breaking downside support to exit. On the contrary, long term investors might make use of the downside support as entry to accumulate long positions at lower cost to save up more cost buffer to ride a longer cycle.

ERIC 5G METAVERSEERIC is gapped up this morning, got filled yesterday during the downturn at a ridiculously low bid, & was up well before market close. As you can see the daily chart is what's used, it was easy to see the turning point on volume looking for swing trade type positions. ERIC is expected to give earnings today & is expected be positive. ERIC has huge upside potential as a Metaverse 5G play. Its low price and huge infrastructure make it perfect to capture the developing metaverse market. Ericsson may not be a "leading" metaverse brand like Facebook, but it's going to grow in the background as it provides the actual bandwidth for the metaverse. This is called the picks & shovels method. Watch this space for MACRO & supply chain plays.

AT&T Communications/Metaverse Play?AT&T did a double bottom with equal buying and selling here on the Daily. The double bottom happened only over a few days, however there's Four Green Candles "Marching Up" a fifth one would have been nice, but four is pretty strong. What do you think is AT&T going to gain 5G Market Share? I recently saw a comparison to T-Mobile, but can't help think which other brands will gain in this sector. The Metaverse is going to need 5G as more games roll out onto phones, which platform do you all think be the biggest? Also AT&T just bought it's own Advertising Brand, so again it's going to be collecting tons & tons of data. After taking a beating politically & economically this might be a buy, no bags but looking. Not advice, please DYOR & view AT&T & it's subsidiaries prospectus.

Helium Looks Ready for Round 2!! BINANCEUS:HNTUSD has strong fundamentals and news that continues to shine even during the recent pullback. If today’s Daily candle can close over the 23.6 fib extension then we could see nice price action back to $40 plus range. If you haven’t purchased any $HNT yet I highly recommend looking into their project. Continue to monitor $HNT as they keep releasing new 5g news! Look in to HNT mining if you haven't heard of it yet. Trade : Daily close over $34.8 price level would signal a solid entry for a swing trade. Risk : You could risk off of the 50 EMA convergence zone and edge of HVN at about $33.75. This would give you roughly 8% SL. Profit : Profit taking would come in around $40-$41 as this is edge of the next HVN as well as 38.20% fib extension and fib retracement on the daily chart. This is almost a 2-1 R:R. Not the most appealing but HNT is such a great long term investment IMO. As always DYOR - Not Financial Advice!
