Dish Networks
Dish Network (DISH:NSD) has seen a decline of about 8% in the DISH stock price during the last week. The stock price remained relatively stable over the past month.
In comparison, the broader markets have increased by 4% during the past month. The recent decline in the DISH stock can be attributed to a contraction in the company’s pay-TV subscriber base, which includes both its Dish TV satellite and Sling TV Internet-based users.
The company lost 270,000 subscribers in Q4 2022, reversing the gain of 30,000 subscribers in Q3. Additionally, the possibility of a recession in the US economy, coupled with the Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes, could present challenges for Dish given its high debt and declining core pay-TV operations.
