Charter Communications (Revised) | CHTR | Long at $269.50 Charter Communications, Inc.BATS:CHTRWorthlessViews**This is a revised analysis from December 26, 2024: . My stop was triggered in that original trade after the recent price drop (some gains were taken at 13%, as noted).** Charter Communications CHTR stock recently dropped due to a disappointing Q2 2025 earnings report, with earnings per share of $9.18 missing estimates of $9.58 and a larger-than-expected loss of 111,000 residential internet customers. Despite the recent subscriber losses and increased competition, the following factors suggest long-term growth potential: Network Expansion: Launch of 2x1 Gbps service in eight markets in 2025, boosting competitiveness. Rural Growth: Rural revenue projected to reach 10–15% of total revenue by 2025. Cox Acquisition: $34.5B merger expected to close by mid-2026, yielding $500M in annual cost savings by 2028 and enhancing market share. Mobile and AI Strategies: Strong mobile growth and AI-driven customer service tools to improve retention and efficiency. Lower Interest Rates: Reduced bowering costs to help with profit margins. Charter's President/CEO recently grabbed $2.5 million in shares under $300. From a technical analysis perspective, there is an open price gap near $195 that could be of concern in the near-term. I foresee that being closed if the whole market flips or more bad news for the company arises. But, with a P/E of 7x and the industry average being near 13x, I believe CHTR is a good value at the moment. Thus, at $269.50, CHTR is in a personal buy zone with a note of "risk" of a drop near $195 (a second personal entry point if it hits that level before targets are reached). Targets into 2028: $330.00 (+22.4%) $375.00 (+39.1%)
