<h3>Why Insider Transactions Are Key in Investment Decisions</h3>
While insider transactions provide valuable information, they should be part of a broader analysis in making investment decisions.
Exploring the legal landscape, an "insider" is defined as any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated by Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and major hedge funds. These insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
Highlighted by a company insider's new purchase, there's a positive anticipation for the stock to rise.
But, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>A Deep Dive into Insider Transaction Codes</h3>
When dissecting transactions, the focal point for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> is often those occurring in the open market, meticulously detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase, while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

Charter Communications's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NYSE">CHTR</a>) short percent of float has risen 6.32% since its last report.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Charter Communications has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Charter Communications's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Charter Communications's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 15.12%, which means the company has more short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Is the Market Bullish or Bearish on Charter Communications?

T-Mobile US Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TMUS#NASDAQ">TMUS</a>) is grappling with a fiber shortage <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/06/45981229/t-mobile-stock-tmus-plunges-after-softbanks-4-8b-share-sale-report">that could hinder</a> its growth in a competitive market, according to KeyBanc Capital Markets.
The T-Mobile US Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/59f8cd40efacff000111b43b/brandon-nispel">Analyst Brandon Nispel</a> downgraded the rating to Underweight, while establishing a price target of $200.
The T-Mobile US Thesis: While the company is fiber deficient, the latest strategic transactions &#8211; of AT&amp;T Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) with Lumen Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUMN#NYSE">LUMN</a>), Charter Communications Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) with Cox Communication, and Verizon Communications Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) with&nbsp;Frontier Communications Parent Inc (NASDAQ:&nbsp;FYBR) &#8211; are focused on converged mobile and home broadband, Nispel said in the downgrade note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
These developments suggest that a bundled offer may be needed to compete in the market, the analyst stated. Following these strategic deals, T-Mobile US now has a "poor competitive position," he added.
Net adds across the industry seem to be declining, possibly due to macro uncertainty, price hikes, and competition, Nispel said. "Ultimately, we are forecasting elevated churn, a slower net-add environment, and share going to Cable," he further wrote.
TMUS Price Action: Shares of T-Mobile US had declined by 1.6% to $232.04 at the time of publication on Wednesday.

Assessing Charter Communications: Insights From 8 Financial Analysts

UBS analyst John Hodulik maintains Charter Communications (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $400 to $425.

UBS Maintains Neutral on Charter Communications, Raises Price Target to $425

Welcome to the Easy Income update for June. The markets remain volatile, though perhaps not as volatile as they were in April during the announcement of Liberation Day tariffs. The market has recovered 1.6 percent, a solid comeback. Over the last week, we have been essentially flat.
Bonds have not kept pace with stocks. We have attempted to generate movement in the bond market, but every time it tries to rally, economic news knocks it back down. We are up about a percent for the week in bonds, which represents all of the stock returns for the last month since May 15th. Much of that return was driven by the consumer price index and producer price index reports that emerged earlier this week.
Interest Rates and Geopolitical Developments Interest rates remain steady, but the big curveball this week was Iran and Israel. Israel attacked Iran, Iran fired back, yet this has not led to a dramatic rally in Treasury prices or the US dollar as it might have just last year. The high degree of uncertainty around trade and commerce continues to weigh on markets.
The president has announced that we will levy tariffs. I believe it is July 9th when he will send letters over the next couple of weeks (hopefully by the end of next week) to nations around the world, informing them of their new tariff rates. No more discussion. This is simply what it will be.
Federal Reserve Outlook We have a Fed decision coming this month, though there probably will not be any action in June. The Fed has essentially telegraphed they will not act. Had we seen a truly bad jobs reading, unemployment claims report, or other economic indicator giving them reason to think the economy was slowing rapidly and required lower rates, they might have acted. We did not get that. CPI and PPI came in lower than expected but remained above the Fed&#8217;s two percent target.
More importantly, when examining CPI prices, everything increased to varying degrees: rent, shelter, car insurance, except energy and energy-related commodities. Gas prices provided a significant boost, falling considerably during the month. Add energy back in, and inflation rates would have had the Fed seriously considering raising interest rates in the coming weeks, not lowering them as the president desperately wants.
I believe (trying to recall what he called Powell this time, whether it was &#8220;moron,&#8221; &#8220;stupid,&#8221; or &#8220;idiot,&#8221; something along those lines) he demanded one hundred basis points, roughly four months of rate cuts at once, to spur economic growth. Powell correctly sat on his hands because the primary fear must be reigniting inflation by cutting rates prematurely.
Economic Fundamentals The economy is actually in decent shape. Unemployment numbers remain solid, though we must monitor continuing claims hitting cycle highs, meaning people stay unemployed longer. The Challenger Gray Report shows impending layoffs. All federal government employees with expiring employment agreements will hit the market later this month, followed by deferred retirees entering the rolls in September and October.
Current hard numbers look good, but looking ahead several months, unemployment claims could easily jump. Another serious concern for the US economy: we witnessed over 300,000 quits and removals from the workforce by foreign workers through legal means. These workers are critical to meeting job demand across several industries. If they continue departing due to fears about current US immigration policy, it will create labor shortages that drive inflation higher.
Powell made the right call. He did nothing. The president does not like it. He is a real estate guy who will never like anything that does not involve lowering rates at every Fed meeting forever. Obviously, that will not happen anytime soon.
Portfolio Changes In our Easy Income portfolio, yield has remained high while volatility stays relatively low. We are raising the yield this month with one portfolio change. We rarely make changes, but I want to move away from XBB, the completely unmanaged BB index, and swap it for InfraCap Capital&#8217;s bond ETF corporate bond BNDS: also high quality, high yield with an average rating around triple B.
I see minimal triple C paper or junk in the portfolio holdings. They hold some high-quality preferred stocks, but this is essentially high-quality, high-yield where Jay Hatfield and his team have done the credit work. He approaches credit analysis almost exactly as I do. I have tremendous faith in his portfolio management approach.
Portfolio Holdings Analysis The top holdings are bonds I know well, having completed credit analysis on many that I own and have recommended:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Plains All-American (Ticker: PAA) The pipeline company</li>
<li>Crescent Energy Finance (Ticker: CRGY) The oil and gas partnership between John Goff and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts</li>
<li>Charter Communications (Ticker: CHTR) A company we paid substantial monthly fees to until leaving Florida (we own the stock in another portfolio, have completed credit work, understand the outlook and impending spinoff, all positive for the debt)</li>
<li>Organon (Ticker: OGN) A Merck spinoff from several years ago focused on female healthcare products (excellent company with strong cash flow)</li>
<li>Lincoln National (Ticker: LNC) One of the country&#8217;s finest insurance companies (their headquarters sits ten minutes from here in light traffic, convenient for any necessary discussions)</li>
<li>Flagstar Financial (Ticker: FLG) The renamed New York Community Bank, which I like, have recommended, and own (we hold shares of that particular preferred stock)</li>
<li>Land O&#8217;Lakes: The butter company</li>
</ul>
This combination delivers monthly dividends with experienced management that understands credit and economics. We are getting slightly over eight percent yield, replacing a 5.8 percent yield with over eight percent.
Management Perspective I spoke with Jay Hatfield recently. He expects Fed rate cuts in the second half of 2025, probably correct unless we see higher inflation, higher energy prices from prolonged Iran-Israel conflict, or tariff war expansion.
The bond market has stabilized following the Liberation Day sell-off, though it is not rallying. Hatfield believes Treasury yields will remain between 4.25 and 4.5 percent over the coming months. He doubts the ten-year will stay above 4.5 percent long because that means seven percent mortgage rates, which would damage housing demand and force earlier Fed action.
Like me, he believes credit fundamentals for high-quality, high-yield remain very strong even under mild recession scenarios when excluding obvious junk. Most BNDS portfolio companies are asset-sensitive, old-economy businesses: oil and gas pipelines, real estate, industrials, and banks with stable cash flows. The key: extremely low default risk.
Risk Management Strategy
Default risk represents the major challenge with high-yield bonds. If we can underwrite most of that risk away, we deliver solid total returns—exactly what Hatfield accomplishes. The market prices in more risk than Hatfield believes exists, and he anticipates potential rate cuts providing additional tailwinds by lowering treasury base rates.
The fund targets mispriced high-yield bonds and preferred stocks where rating agencies are overly pessimistic, just as I have done for thirty-five to forty years. Rating agencies make static assumptions and poorly understand real estate, banking, or oil and gas pipeline industries, consistent with my three decades of findings. Hatfield excellently exploits these inefficiencies in ETF format.
By focusing on underappreciated credits, the portfolio generates yields modestly higher than the general high-yield market without additional risk. That is where we capture the extra 220 basis points: through credit underwriting. He also includes some preferred stocks (under twenty percent of the portfolio) that provide a nice yield boost.
We are excited about this swap. Hatfield employs one additional strategy I appreciate: they own positions in high-yield indexes and, when appropriate, sell covered calls against them for extra income. They are not doing much of this currently but are permitted to do so and have succeeded with it in other funds.
Trade Recommendation: Sell (Ticker: XBB) not because it is a poor product, but because we can capture 220 basis points without reaching or stretching by adding modest leverage and superior underwriting to high-quality, high-yield bond selection. Sell XBB, buy BNDS first thing Monday morning.
Economic Outlook The economy is fundamentally sound, though we will probably see a summer slowdown. Too much uncertainty exists to avoid this. Businesses do not know how tariffs will affect their operations or raw material sourcing. They are postponing hiring, delaying, or eliminating capital expenditures, and avoiding expansion: essentially treading water.
The uncertainty index from the National Federation of Independent Businesses shows the highest reading ever since tracking began in 1975. Considering everything that has negatively impacted the world and economy since 1975 that would frighten, unnerve, and paralyze small business owners, this highest-ever reading demonstrates how much tariff and trade war possibilities concern American small business owners.
This will likely trigger a late-year slowdown. If tariffs are implemented at White House-suggested levels, we will almost certainly see inflation. Expect mild to moderate stagflation sometime over the summer, possibly into fall, with interest rate cuts becoming more likely once we have trade clarity toward year-end or early next year.
Sector Exposures Our biggest exposures are well-distributed (we are not overcommitted anywhere) but include oil and gas exposure through pipeline companies, pipeline closed-end funds, and oil and gas royalty trusts. Obviously, the war sparked a huge Friday crude oil rally. Continued conflict will drive prices higher.
Long-term, remember that even if Chinese demand remains weak and OPEC increases production, oil and gas demand will keep rising. As long as demand exists, product will flow through infrastructure: pipelines, gathering centers, shipping terminals, the assets we own in closed-end funds. We will collect those fees and that money will keep flowing.
We will continue extracting from the ground, though US oil and gas production probably will not change significantly over the next year or two: no economic incentive exists to fully open the throttles. But as long as production continues, we collect royalties. Natural gas demand in particular will remain very strong from electrification initiatives with an AI component that we expect to continue growing.
We are not concerned about recent weakness in oil and gas-related assets. We consider this complete market mispricing, largely offset by gains in other fund assets.
Real Estate Markets Examining the Mortgage Bankers Association data (we maintain mortgage exposure), no major changes are coming in residential mortgages. Default rates are not rising. According to the Mortgage Brokers Association, we probably will not see mortgage rates fall meaningfully below six percent for several years. Rates will generally stay around current levels with some political and other volatility, but barring serious economic problems spurring refinancing waves, we will not see dramatic mortgage rate declines.
Current coupon mortgages being purchased now are solid, unlikely to change significantly, and will continue producing high income levels, making our residential mortgage assets more attractive.
Regarding commercial real estate, KKR reported last week: &#8220;This is perfect. We love being real estate debt investors here. Prices across all real estate classifications are showing improvement signs. This is when we want to aggressively be the lender of last resort with solid underwriting and loan-to-value ratios because we are still collecting nice premiums to older rates—we get paid to take the risk.&#8221;
Asset class collateral is stabilizing across all sectors, including office. Last month, conversions from offices to condos, laboratories, and medical facilities, plus demolitions, exceeded total new office buildings coming online in the United States. We are destroying supply. Class A buildings we lend on through our assets will see steady demand at eighty to ninety percent occupancy rates that will continue rising, at the expense of lower-end properties. Our mortgage assets primarily handle new and transaction financing, not the assets facing elimination.
Even commercial real estate&#8217;s most troubled segment is improving, making our commercial real estate mortgage investments increasingly attractive.
Risk Factors The biggest potential disruptions are war: obviously, continued conflict will spike interest rates and inflation, though our oil and gas assets will largely offset this within the portfolio. Tariffs and related political noise will remain problematic.
If we can reach deals or compromises that allow the administration to feel comfortable backing away from aggressive tariff implementation, and achieve some resolution and certainty, everything will stabilize at levels that do not negatively impact financial markets.
Portfolio Diversification This portfolio structure includes US bank subordinated debt that trades differently than our oil and gas infrastructure. Business development companies operate under completely different conditions than Indonesian and Australian government bonds. Closed-end fund arbitrage funds (we own several) do their own thing and generate monthly cash. Risk transfer securities on European and US banks behave completely differently than oil and gas royalty markets.
We own numerous uncorrelated assets. Some zig, others zag, smoothing volatility. They share one trait: consistent high cash flow streams, much of it monthly. Cash constantly flows through our accounts, further dampening volatility, filling our pockets, and creating reinvestment opportunities.
Conclusion That covers the June Easy Income portfolio update. This portfolio performs exactly as intended. It is easy.
&nbsp;We are performing at a very high level with most performance paid in cash, and volatility remains at sleep-well-at-night levels.
Thanks, folks. We will return next month with the July update.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

Live On CNBC, Sarat Sethi Announces Sold Charter Communications

NSFW content platform OnlyFans is seeking <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/25/05/45583803/onlyfans-owner-in-talks-to-sell-company-for-8-billion-amid-soaring-revenue-and-investor-interest-report">a tantalizing $8 billion price tag</a>. 
Leonid Radvinsky&#8216;s Fenix International, the UK-based parent company, is chatting with a consortium led by U.S. investment firm Forest Road Company. The group includes Disney and TikTok alum Kevin Mayer, because apparently, the natural career progression from Mickey Mouse to "mature content" is a short — and profitable — one.
OnlyFans boasts over 4 million content creators and 305 million fan accounts, with creators keeping 80% of what they earn. The other 20% goes to running the platform — and, you know, fueling those billion-dollar payouts.
While the company insists it's more than adult content — think celebs like Iggy Azalea — the reality is it's still very much making bank on letting the internet showcase its most unfiltered self.
Also for sale: Paramount Group, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGRE#NYSE">PGRE</a>). The office space landlord announced it's exploring a potential sale. Whether a lucrative deal can "maximize shareholder value" remains to be seen. CEO Albert Behler announced that Bank of America Securities and Latham &amp; Watkins are tasked with running the process.
Meanwhile, there&#8217;s a c-suite shuffle going on with Ermelinda Berberi stepping up as the new CFO. This comes after the company revealed some eyebrow-raising fiduciary flubs: more than $4 million in "previously undisclosed" payments went toward CEO Behler's personal expenses — including $900,000 for his accountants and $3 million for flights on a private jet company he partially owns. 
Following these disclosures, the Wall Street Journal <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/c-suite/major-office-landlord-is-exploring-a-sale-of-the-company-794701e3">reported</a> that some of Paramount&#8217;s top executives have exited the firm.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates From The Block</h2>
A trio of telecom deals grabbed this week&#8217;s headlines. The most recent transaction involves AT&amp;T (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>), which is looking to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/05/45553442/lumen-technologies-stock-surges-on-fiber-business-sale-to-att">spend $5.75 billion in cash</a>. 
The target is Lumen Technologies' (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUMN#NYSE">LUMN</a>) consumer fiber business.
U.S. telecom dealmaking, it seems, is sizzling. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/price-target/25/05/45502573/charters-proposed-cox-deal-could-challenge-comcast-surpass-att-in-broadband">On Monday, news broke</a> of the Charter Communications, Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) merger with Cox Communications. Then, the FCC approved Verizon's $20 billion acquisition of Frontier Communications.
These takeovers come as many regional and legacy telecom providers struggle to meet infrastructure investment demands. Larger players seize the opportunity to purchase assets at attractive valuations, consolidate operations, and eliminate redundancies.
For AT&amp;T, the move reinforces its strategy of unifying its wireless and fiber offerings to meet increasing consumer demand for high-tech connectivity. 
Lumen, meanwhile, is pivoting away from consumer services to concentrate on enterprise clients and the infrastructure needed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/10/41429423/lumen-and-meta-join-forces-to-boost-ai-with-flexible-on-demand-network-solutions">support artificial intelligence initiatives</a>. 
The trend isn&#8217;t exclusive to the U.S. 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Off The Block</h2>
Spanish telecom company Telefonica <a href="https://www.datacenterdynamics.com/en/news/millicom-to-acquire-telef%C3%B3nicas-uruguayan-unit-for-440m/">agreed</a> to sell its Uruguayan unit for $440 million to Luxembourg-based Millicom International.
Millicom, which operates as Tigo in the region, will gain 100% ownership of the unit and sees strategic infrastructure benefits for its nearby operations in Paraguay and Bolivia. The deal follows Millicom's earlier acquisitions of Telefónica's mobile units in Colombia, Panama, Costa Rica, and Nicaragua.
For Telefónica, the Uruguay sale is part of a broader divestment strategy aimed at reducing debt and limiting exposure to currency volatility. Since 2019, the Spanish telecom giant has been shedding assets across Latin America to refocus on its core European markets, including Spain, the UK, and Germany. 
Recent moves include the sale of its Peruvian, Argentinian, and potentially Chilean and Mexican units.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Bankruptcy Block</h2>
Semiconductor supplier Wolfspeed (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WOLF#NYSE">WOLF</a>) is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/05/45534429/wolfspeed-reportedly-prepping-bankruptcy-filing-after-snubbing-debt-deals-buckling-under-6-5-billion-burden-stock-plunges-over-60">preparing to file for Chapter 11</a> bankruptcy within weeks, according <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/wolfspeed-prepares-to-file-for-bankruptcy-within-weeks-7bd98040">to</a> The Wall Street Journal. The company has been struggling with weak demand in the industrial and automotive sectors, as well as uncertainty from tariffs. Wolfspeed&#8217;s stock plunged over 57% in after-hours trading on Tuesday following the news. The bankruptcy filing is expected to have backing from a majority of its creditors, after the company rejected several out-of-court restructuring proposals.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Notes From The Block: Back To Telecom</h2>
According <a href="https://www.bain.com/insights/telecom-m-and-a-here-are-the-latest-deal-trends-worldwide-interactive/">to</a> Bain Capital, global telecom M&amp;A took a breather in Q1 2025. Deal value dropped to $16 billion—down from $22 billion a year ago—suggesting that telcos may be suffering from a bit of a financial hangover after a strong 2024. The Americas still brought the most party favors, accounting for 64% of global activity.
The real stars of the quarter? Divestments. Crown Castle offloaded its U.S. fiber and small cells businesses for $4.25 billion, and Telia <a href="https://news.bloombergtax.com/mergers-and-acquisitions/telia-sells-tv-unit-for-614-million-to-schibsted-media">jettisoned</a> its TV and media unit.
Meanwhile, those big-scale deals that were all the rage last year only made up 14% of Q1's deal value—down from 47% a year ago. Still, they've held strong over the long haul, accounting for the biggest share (39%) of deal value over the past five years, followed by infrastructure divestments at 32%.

Deal Dispatch: OnlyFans To Sell For $8 Billion? Telecom M&A Heats Up, Wolfspeed On Road To Bankruptcy

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Elon Musk amplified a cost-cutting move by President Donald Trump's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) on Wednesday, stating that the U.S. government may be wasting $100 million a year on inactive phone lines.
What Happened: In a post on X, formerly Twitter, DOGE's official handle revealed that an internal audit found 198 out of 1,048 phone lines at the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) were either unused or duplicated — roughly 19% of the total.
DOGE said canceling the lines took one hour and would save around $100,000 annually.
"Since OPM is ~0.1% of the federal government, this suggests that ~$100M/yr is wasted on unused lines," the agency wrote.

Musk, who helped lead DOGE's early initiatives but announced <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45381782/elon-musk-vows-to-spend-less-time-in-white-house-doge-office-investors-warn-the-damage-is-done-and-teslas-troubles-are-far-from-over">plans to reduce</a> his involvement during <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/04/44937440/tesla-q1-misses-estimates-as-tariff-pressures-weigh-on-outlook-lower-cost-evs-still-on-track">Tesla's first-quarter earnings call</a>, reposted the update and added:

This latest move by DOGE could impact leading telecom providers that deliver services to both residential and business customers.
Only 2% of U.S. adults use landlines exclusively, according to a 2023 <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2023/06/23/landline-telephone-holdouts/">report</a> by The Washington Post. In 2019, the Federal Communications Commission scrapped requirements that made it compulsory to run copper wires to each home. The report noted that Verizon Communications Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VZ#NYSE">VZ</a>) is the dominant landline player in the Northeast of the country.

Elon Musk Wants The US Government To Hang Up The Phone: 'Government Is Wasting About $100 Million Per Year On Unused Phone Lines'

BofA Securities analyst Jessica Reif Ehrlich maintained a Buy rating on Charter Communications, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CHTR#NASDAQ">CHTR</a>) last Friday, with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CHTR/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">price target of $450</a>.
Ehrlich noted that Charter had announced an agreement to merge with privately held Cox Communications for an equity purchase consideration of $21.9 billion and the assumption of $12.6 billion in Cox debt and lease obligations.
The $21.9 billion equity consideration is comprised of $11.9 billion in common units, $6 billion notional value in preferred units, and $4 billion in cash, the analyst said.

The combined entity's pro forma economic ownership will be 67% Charter, 23% Cox, and 10% Advance/Newhouse, according to Ehrlich. She views the $33.9 billion transaction as value accretive, noting it implies a ~6.44x EV/2025E EBITDA multiple before synergies. With $500 million in synergies—likely a conservative estimate—the multiple drops below 6x by year three.
Ehrlich said the deal will expand Charter's reach to 69.5 million passings, 37.6 million customers, and 35.9 million broadband subscribers. It also allows Charter to apply its pricing and packaging strategy across an additional 12.3 million passings and pursue mid-sized commercial and enterprise markets more aggressively.
As per Ehrlich, the deal should not present significant regulatory hurdles and should likely close in mid-2026. The companies do not have overlapping footprints, and 69.5 million passings is only ~5 million larger than Comcast Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMCSA#NASDAQ">CMCSA</a>) (64 million) and also not significantly larger than AT&amp;T Inc&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/T#NYSE">T</a>) (and AT&amp;T also offers nationwide wireless).
Time Warner Cable&nbsp;/Charter deal in 2015/2016 received regulatory approval in less than 12 months, and the environment has become significantly more competitive.
Ehrlich noted that Comcast is unlikely to present a competing bid due to a likely more difficult regulatory path.
The analyst expects the Cox merger to boost revenue growth across broadband, video, and mobile, improve margins, increase free cash flow, and reduce leverage. While integration may pose challenges, Charter's strong execution history and improving broadband and video trends should support EBITDA growth.
CHTR Price Action: At the last check on Monday, Charter Communications stock was down 2.1% to $418.27.
