What stands out
Bloomberg hosts highlighted a single newsline that moved whole swaths of the market: reports that SpaceX plans to build at least 80,000 U.S. cell sites and is talking to major tower owners. The clip shows tower owners jumped while wireless carriers sold off within the same trading session, a clear example of how network-level infrastructure news can reprice both winners and losers on the same industry story. The immediacy of the moves, towers rallying and carriers falling on the same headline, is what made this close-of-day segment notable.
