In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker welcomes back Wei from Yummy Century Stocks for a follow-up on EchoStar/Sats. They analyze the surprise $23 billion spectrum deal with AT&T, what it means for the rest of the spectrum portfolio, and whether liquidation or a new satellite venture is next. The discussion touches on cable’s strategic options, risks of regulatory interference, and shifting dynamics in fixed wireless and spectrum valuation. They also explore ongoing broadcaster M&A and close with a candid conversation on value investing psychology, bagholding, and lessons from QVC.First SATS podcast (episode 322): https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/yummy-century-eggs-guowei-zhang-on?r=a7n3&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web___________________________________________________________
