$SATS booming. Why? DISH had 40% short interest prior to merge. Short brokers got trapped
SATS taking Off after heavily shorted!!!
$OZK will probably explode very soon, their revenue share and bridging are best on the market
Conventional wisdom says you should invest in companies that you have had a quality, personal experience with. Should you short the others?
To all the ASTS haters, you're going to lose money anywhere you go, even the ocean!
ANOTHER AWESOME SHORT SQUEEZE IDEA... $SATS

Google ownership stake in SpaceX is around $30 billion today but the entire market cap of Google Alphabet is $3.5 billion. Therefore each $1 of Google stock you buy represents less than $0.01 of SpaceX private share, which defeats the purpose of buying a Google for SpaceX. You will be buying Google stock for Google. Echostar had a follow on spectrum deal with SpaceX for additional shares. Their total SpaceX ownership will be $11 billion compare to its market cap of $20 billion. For every $1 in SATS you invest is equivalent to $0.55 in SpaceX shares. This is as good as you will get. Downside is deal won’t close until 2027 and Echostar is heavily in debt ~ $30 billions. Good news is their debt will be completely paid off when AT&T cash-only spectrum deal close next year plus cash portion of SpaceX deal. They also have a bit more spectrum to sell for a few more billions.
SATS has been an absolute dark horse in my port. Added it as part of thematic inviting and it’s sitting nicely at 170% in 4 months.
SpaceX bought wireless spectrum from Echostar (SATS) for $17B. $8.5B of that was in SpaceX stock. SATS has a maret cap of around $20B.
This post didn’t get enough love, $SATS is definitely undervalued rn
I know a trade that went 10,000 to multi millions in one day. On August 25th SATS abruptly went up 70% in one day. Since it wasn’t an earnings play the IV was nonexistent. There were options that went up 50,000%.
EchoStar ($SATS) in [talks to sell spectrum to Verizon](https://www.reddit.com/r/SATS_ECHOSTAR/s/Ui9i2kzM34) In last month SATS sold spectrum for $23B to AT&T, $19B to SpaceX ($8.5B in SpaceX stock) and probably another $10-$15B to Verizon.
PL, SATS, IRM, and the mag 7 continue to be some of my favorite Roth investments. Continuing to add while I gamble away all my money on weed and mineral stocks in my brokerage
Bro, just YOLO your portofolio on 0dte calls, go to r/wallstreetbets , post loss porn and it’s done. If you see value in SATS then I envy the reality in which you live.
SATS was not performing and it sold it’s nr 1 asset thus ghe massive injection of cash. What other arguments you want?
Great post and insights. I just created r/SATS_ECHOSTAR so please feel free to crosspost there. In my opinion, the $8.5 Billion SpaceX stake along with Boost Mobile being a hybrid AT&T terrestrial+Starlink satellite gives an advantage over other MNOs that are still waiting for ASTS and others to get their satellites into orbit. Boost is already the 4th largest wireless provider so they got room to grow. I like their Hughes government business, it's a $1+ Billion in revenue but it's not growing and competition is intensifying. They should acquire VSAT government unit with their new cash injection. I really don't like Dish and Sling, their time has passed and if there's a buyer, they should sell it and move it on. They claim to have [$24 Billion](https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/echostar-expects-have-24-billion-cash-after-spectrum-sales-debt-payments-2025-09-15/) in cash now so they have a lot of options to pivot and become a growth story.
I agree. Can you go into more details on how you arrived at $110 as the intrinsic value of SATS.
May I interest you regards in IRDM, GSAT or ASTS? Spit that SATS and SPAX out.
Seriously, why the market sucks Elon's ball so hard? One purchase of spectrum from SATS and it trashed all other satellite companies. WTF. D2D 5G is not even a proven thing.
Long SATS. Who wants to own some SpaceX?
Why do ASTS and IRDM get their asses whooped by Elon Musk's deal with SATS but GSAT is unscathed? Anyone can explain?
Ditto $SATS Deals 3x market cap but is mostly cash!!
SATS has abruptly become the purest public market way to get SpaceX exposure with 8.5 billion in spacex stock (plus other assets) on a 22 billion market cap. I'm hoping it gets the same sort of premium as destiny100, etc.
SATS is going to own about 2 percent of spaceX.
SATS was 100$+ in pre. Free money here?
Friendship with RKLB ended. SATS is my best friend now
$SATS deal with SpaceX/Starlink. Is buying $SATS the best way to get equity exposure into SpaceX or Starlink now?
If this dip is because of the spaceX buying SATS news, then I'm buying calls as it'll recover. Not sure how long it'll take though.
SpaceX bought SATS and for some reason people are surprised lol
Into $SATS due to the SpaceX stock / spectrum acquisition
SATS jumps every time it sells its spectrum. Maybe it should sell everything.
Starlink made large spectrum purchase from SATS, big move to compete directly with ASTS which is still waiting and silent on next satellite launch.
SATS my fuckin god man. What a good investment
Welp time to short the living shit out of SATS
SATS short squeeze almost to ATH!
Musk buying SATS spectrum and price target increase !
SATS needs to drop 10% and KSS needs to drop back to 10 and lower. Or just go bankrupt. That works too
Bringing SATS back to 26
I want to have opening bell tomorrow show me KSS at under 11 and SATS under 46
SATS volatile after hours. Wouldn't be surprised if its in the 40s by open
What happened to SATS?!
If you short shit then SATS is where you want to be…🩸🩸🩸
I hope SATS drops 30% of its 80% gains overnight.
SATS puts are about to print
Loaded on SATS puts. Looking for a pullback second half of trading day.
I woke up to my SATS position up 80% and nuke/uranium stocks thru the roof…. What happened today lmao
SATS can you please drop like 10% thanks.
There is definitely some insider trading on SATS , some people opened 32c expiring this week even though it was only 200 contracts around $5k , they turned it to $500k+
whoa SATS skyrocketing today, apparently on the news of a deal with AT&T
Id love to see SATS lose 20% of the 75% its up today.
Hopefully it drags SATS down with it
No clue but my guess is calls on $SATS AT&T just bought a ton of licenses from them and the stock is up over 70% today. Its in the low $50s and was $17 like within the last few weeks
The fact that SATS had valuable spectrum assets was a known fact (although nobody knew exactly when/how it would be monetized).
lucid, rivian report slightly better results? TSLA pumps energy sector down? TSLA pumps tariffs imposed? TSLA pumps declining sales? TSLA pumps SATS contract with AT&T? TSLA pumps because starlink, why not
SATS not gonna stay up +75% all day. Profit taking and pullback inevitable. Drop back into the 40s coming
Forget about ASTS Chat can talk about SATS
I think SATS gonna come back down into mid 40s
How high can SATS go? 60+?
SATS reaching ATH after the contract with AT&T
Inny of you wanna SATS on muh dik
ASTS not SATS damn you dysexlia
SATS is about to print so hard
Rklb & asts are the old story. Welcome to new golden boi SATS +70% premaket. To the 🌙🌙🌙
Why is SATS up that much?
SATS is already up over 40% premarket… Source: PR Newswire https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/echostar-announces-spectrum-sale-and-hybrid-mobile-network-operator-mno-agreement-steps-toward-resolving-federal-communications-commissions-fcc-inquiries-302538317.html
Ohh I thought you meant watch SATS to show a sign of weakness, use that as a signal to short NIO. No idea why I read it that way
Short NIO, watch SATS for weakness to short.
SATS has a huge call wall at $30 but it hung on over $28 support today during the rotation sell off. Little profit taking and compressing. Worth setting an alert over $30. SOUN also found relative strength today. Like both of those as breakout plays when this rotation BS is over.
It’s been months since I’ve participated on this subreddit. I was told by some idiot to buy $DISH because of some dumb story, and ended up being a huge bag holder. $DISH got turned into $SATS, and today $SATS is up %50. Hey dish guy, wherever you are, you were right! Just a couple years early…
$SATS is going to move wildly one way or the other this week. FCC Chair is due to announce his actions regarding his request for comment on $SATS 's spectrum. I'm banking on him backpedaling a reasonable amount from how much action he was looking to take, because Elon pissed Trump off.
I wish SATS were called kernels
I like how SATS are trolling people like you by not telling them the most obvious reason for BTC. Rethink the whole concept and you may get it.
Any thoughts on SATS Echostar announcing this AM?
Stop it, nobody in this post wants to read a rational thought!!! SATS to 50$ 🤟🏻
It's hard to have revenue when you just put the first block of SATS on the sky. RemindMe! 1 year
I have been sitting on 100 shares of SATS I got when Dish was converted (orig 300 shares) The stock has been super lame, so last month I sold a covered call in Dec exp and only got $200 out of it, but the strike price was high enough to get me out of the position with a small loss. Well, SATS takes off like a rocket, and to buy back the option and sell the stock I will take a beating. A buy/write was suggested but I don't see the advantage. Her's a good article on the topic, good luck. [Placing Option Trades (Multi-Leg) (schwab.com)](https://help.streetsmart.schwab.com/edge/1.6/Content/Placing%20Option%20Orders%20Multi-leg.htm)
check out echostar SATS
how do you think the acquisition will affect the stocks of both T and SATS?
trying not to buy any options this week and SATS -20% is staring me in the face...
SATS under $23 Is this a good call?
I was just bragging about how well you've treated me on Friday SATS, how could you do this to me? (-17% right now)
SATS Echostar down 15%
Keep stacking SATS bro
well the puts were an insurance policy to limit my downside, I know that until the call expires I am guaranteed $22.90 per share, which beats the $17.50 it was at when i sold the option. I originally bought 300 shares of Dish that was converted to 105 shares of SATS (echostar). I sold the 5 shares to buy the puts.
No one is holding "the" option, but there are an equal number of shorts and longs in existence. When a long exercises, a short is chosen essentially at random for assignment. And it would be a waste of money for a long to exercise right now. That option still has about 1.50 of extrinsic value. It doesn't matter how much they paid for it, and it doesn't matter how much you received when you sold it. Imagine you are holding one of those December 21 strike calls, and you happen to want to buy 100 shares of SATS. Well, yes, you could exercise, and pay $2100 for the shares. Or you could just sell the call, receive about $590, and buy the shares on the open market for $2523, effectively "spending" only $1933. Why would you spend $2100 when you could spend $1933? So a long is not going to exercise.
In general, this is a common beginner question. You are not going to get assigned if the option has any extrinsic value remaining. It would be a waste of money for a long to exercise. They would be better off just selling the option. Having said that, we can't look up your position and verify, since you left out the most important detail: the strike price of the option you sold. That is way more important than how much premium you received to sell it or what it is currently worth. Also, there are both adjusted and non-adjusted SATS options. Hopefully, you sold a non-adjusted one.

So, what’s the chances musk gets his shit together, and starts firing up SATS that meat the standards…. Could easily catch up?
Who in their right mind is buying SATS? Don't understand why it keeps melting up after every horrible quarterly report.
Didn't the FAA make a rule that all LEO SATS need to de-orbit after 5 years? Or maybe it was just 5 years after mission end date...
I'll just repost what I put in Weekend Thread: "It's being priced above well-established existing satellite service providers. Moreover, it's being priced at 2x their valuations while having just ONE satellite in orbit. These other companies already cover remote areas. What does ASTS have over Starlink? Hughesnet? VIASAT? The company will need billions to launch the hundreds upon hundreds of necessary satellites it'll need to have a functional network and is hemorrhaging cash. It has a 100 million dollar deal with VZ/T. So what? 400m in assets. 200m in liabilities. 200m in cash. 200m in debt. -150m in net income. 900k in revenue. Where is this company going to get the capital it needs to get this shit off the ground? I'll tell you. Stock dilution. They're going to issue tens of millions of shares.

I see you also have FFIE positions so you're just a memestock guy. Saw so many people like you during the GME/BBBY/NOK/TSLA squeeze go bust and I tried to tell them.
So far my best performers today are SSD (construction supplier) +4.3%, SATS (communications) +3.8%, and HAL (drilling supplier) +3.8% My worst performer is, no surprise, Ford at -17.3%. Other than that CAG and GOOGL are each down ~1.5%
