Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached 7% of the predicted growth at its peak, without hitting the target.
The thesis — published October 14, 2025
T-Mobile holds a strong spot in U.S. wireless and keeps pushing new ideas, like SIM-based ID features built with Glide. The share price looks beat up, even though overall sentiment is decent. Still, the telecom group faces headwinds and price momentum is weak. We prefer buying in small steps on dips and waiting for a steady base. If momentum turns up, a 0-3 month rebound toward the earlier trend looks likely.
Primary drivers
- New SIM-based ID features with Glide that boost security and customer stickiness
- Share price looks beaten down, which could set up a near-term bounce
- Strong market share as the number-two U.S. carrier supports stable cash flow
- Waiting for signs that price momentum improves before getting more positive
