Why EchoStar Stock Soared Today
Shares of satellite communications company EchoStar (NASDAQ: SATS), owner of the Sling and Boost Mobile brands, soared by 18.2% through 10 a.m. ET Monday -- for reasons that have nothing to do with either Sling or Boost Mobile.
On Monday morning, EchoStar announced it will sell its AWS-4 and H-block satellite spectrum licenses to SpaceX for the latter's use with Starlink. The total sales price: $19 billion.
