The Zhitong Finance App learned that on Friday, American telecom tower operators rose collectively. Guancheng International (CCI.US) surged nearly 14%, American Electric Tower (AMT.US) rose more than 7%, and SBA Communications (SBAC.US) rose more than 6%. According to reports, SpaceX is in talks with Guancheng and other cellular infrastructure companies to acquire at least 80,000 cellular base stations in the US to build a nationwide wireless network. Guancheng was one of the targets of the negotiations. The potential agreement involves site leasing. The report said that the relevant agreement could be worth several billion dollars. Guancheng operates about 40,000 US communications towers, and the 80,000 sites SpaceX plans to acquire is about half of the total number of 158,500 dedicated cell towers in the US last year.
