SpaceX in Talks to Buy Boost Mobile or Lease Its Network
SPCX sits 32% above its 52-week low of $104.83.
Summary
SpaceX is negotiating either to acquire Boost Mobile outright or to gain access to the carrier's network, which Boost leases from AT&T and T-Mobile US, per the Washington Post. The move would give SpaceX a direct retail wireless channel and network capacity to pair with its Starlink connectivity business, which is already a core growth driver. Terms, price and structure are undisclosed, so the financial impact is unknown at this stage. This is a preliminary talks report, not a signed deal — expect volatility until terms or confirmation emerge.
