Their shares have 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,440 Speaker 3: been up as much as forty seven percent, so really 11 00:00:38,479 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 3: on the move. As you know, they owned the Dish 12 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,000 Speaker 3: network pay TV business. But earlier this month there was 13 00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:44,960 Speaker 3: that story, right they were getting ready to file for 14 00:00:45,040 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 3: potential bankruptcy filing facing an FCC review of its spectrum licenses, 15 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,639 Speaker 3: a bankruptcy filing that actually offered them some protection from 16 00:00:53,680 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 3: regulatory actions. But now you have the Wall Street Journal 17 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,920 Speaker 3: reporting that President Trump is urging the company the chairman 18 00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 3: of the FCC to kind of resolve that dispute over 19 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,520 Speaker 3: their spectrum licenses. 20 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:05,680 Speaker 2: So this is it. 21 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:07,559 Speaker 4: This is Charlie Ergan, help us, Paul. 22 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:10,840 Speaker 2: This has been a train wreck for longer than trains 23 00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:11,360 Speaker 2: have been in. 24 00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 4: Power ten fifteen years ago. He said the DirecTV. But 25 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:18,120 Speaker 4: he recognized that the DirecTV and Dish businesses were going down, 26 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 4: so he said, let me pivot my company Dish. So 27 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:22,640 Speaker 4: he went out and bought wireless spectrum. So when you 28 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 4: buy wireless spectrum, and he spent you know, thirty billion 29 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,080 Speaker 4: dollars to do it, you got to build a network. 30 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 4: And he hasn't built a network. And now the government's saying, 31 00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 4: either build a network or give our spectrum back to us. 32 00:01:32,720 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 4: He's got thirty billion of debt, got about billion and 33 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 4: a half of EBATAH, terrible credit situation. He's got to 34 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 4: do something. But now he's presumably he went to the 35 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 4: president and got the president and kind of said to 36 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:45,800 Speaker 4: the FCC, give us a little. 37 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 2: Bit of a break here, we'll do something Dish next. 38 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 2: What are you go? 39 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 3: Okay?

They had that fourteen point 42 00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,480 Speaker 3: one billion dollar purchase of US Steel, So it's really 43 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 3: setting the stage for the deal to close this week. 44 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,320 Speaker 3: We shall see, but you have US Steel take her 45 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 3: ex up five percent nip On Steel, they rose as 46 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,000 Speaker 3: much as five percent, that was the most, and over 47 00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 3: two weeks it's kind of paired down. It's about about 48 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 3: up about one and a half percent now.
