- T-Mobile Stock Decline: Despite T-Mobile achieving an all-time high stock price of $276.49 last year, shares have fallen approximately 33%, reflecting market concerns over CEO transition, even as the company reported record postpaid net additions in Q3, showcasing its strong operational performance.
- Acquisition and CapEx Increase: T-Mobile completed a $4.3 billion acquisition of U.S. Cellular in 2025 and raised its capital expenditure targets, which may impact near-term cash profits; however, its historical success in integrating acquisitions suggests potential for long-term growth.
- Super Micro's Customer Growth: Super Micro secured major clients, including Elon Musk's xAI, in 2025, and although revenue dipped due to customer architecture changes, management anticipates over 100% quarter-over-quarter growth in the December quarter, indicating robust market demand.
- Margin Improvement Plans: Super Micro aims to enhance margins by increasing its large customer base, predicting the addition of 2 to 4 new major clients in fiscal 2026, while also launching higher-margin modular data center solutions to address market competition and boost profitability.
