T-Mobile shares are having their best day in three years

T-Mobile is soaring toward its best day in years, helping offset still wobbly knees in the tech sector in the aftermath of Monday’s DeepSeek drubbing.

The mobile service provider’s Q4 numbers, released before the start of trading, were a lot better than expected on both the top and bottom lines. It also offered strong full-year guidance for 2025, implying it will continue to take market share from rivals AT&T and Verizon.

The Wall Street Journal notes that:

“The Bellevue, Wash., company said it added 903,000 subscribers for postpaid phone, its most lucrative phone connection in which service is paid for each month on a contract.

The figure topped Wall Street expectations for 858,500 added postpaid connections and outpaced rivals Verizon Communications at 568,000 connections and AT&T at 482,000 connections in the last three months of 2024.”

SpaceX gets a wave of bullish ratings from Wall Street analysts

SpaceX received more than a dozen positive analyst calls on Tuesday — including from major Wall Street banks — as they initiate coverage on Elon Musk’s space and AI company.

SpaceX went public on June 12 at a $2.2 trillion valuation, the largest debut in history. While the company hasn’t yet posted a profit, it seems to have convinced Wall Street that it will get there and grow its valuation on the way.

Of the at least 17 analysts that gave a rating on Tuesday, all but one gave it a “buy” or “outperform” rating. MoffettNathanson was "neutral."

The ratings come as SpaceX joined the Nasdaq 100 index, a benchmark tech-heavy basket of companies that underpins millions of portfolios. The inclusion adds built-in demand for the stock from index funds and ETFs.

Still, SpaceX fell more than 5% on Tuesday amid a broader sell-off, and is currently effectively flat from its opening price of $150 a share.
