Quoting: "The decision was in part due to pushback from Deutsche Telekom’s works council, an entity that represents employee interests, according to the report..."
You want it to get better, then jack any person whim helps the india fans. Teclo IA going down hard cause usa born do not have the ba--s to get down and dirty
Comments and posts like this are a perfect example of how ridiculous this thread and posts on here are. For one, Tmobile US is so highly valuable they compared to DT. Tmobile would lose value because DT is much more slow growing and not as valuable as Tmobile. So go do some homework.. it’s no wonder why this company is getting rid of its d-mb as--s
DT can achieve a “merge” by other means.
Instead of spending its own money, DT can simply have TMUS use its own cash flow to buy back public stock. Since DT keeps its own shares locked, shrinking the public pool automatically increases DT’s ownership toward 80% at which point they can legally and automatically buy out the remaining 20% giving them 100% control.
This means that DT will most likely continue forcing customers onto more expensive plans to spike immediate revenue, continue making deep cuts by laying off employees, and possibly dismantle certain lines of business - all in favor of automated software and T-Life app.
This is just a theory but keep an eye out so you’re prepared.
We don't have capitalism. We have crony-capitalism.
Good! Then Srini and Andre can pack it up.
…or, ”Deutsche Telekom doesn't want to merge…because, why buy the rest of the cash cow when they are getting the milk for free!” TMUS is a Free Cash Flow machine with a decent Dividend. As per the latest Schedule 13D/A, DT ownership is 55.9% with 592,065,875 shares. The next Dividend jumps to $1.17 from $1.02 with a payout date 12/10/2026. The Ex-Dividend date is November 25, 2026, so you have time to “stock up”!💵💰

It's nice to see TMUS leadership taking DT employee interests to heart.
Don't make the same mistake Verizon Wireless did when they overleveraged themselves to by Vodaphone out.
Good - maybe we will stop looking outward. Stop merging with mediocre companies! Stop hiring directors and officers from outside! Stop outsourcing jobs! Greatness takes commitment and these outsiders have zero commitment to T-Mobile.
