AMT Surges 0.72% as 5G Spectrum Auction Adjustments Spark Infrastructure Resilience Focus Rises to 145th in Trading

On September 17, 2025, , ranking 145th in market activity. , outperforming broader market trends as investors focused on infrastructure resilience amid regulatory developments in spectrum auctions.

Recent market dynamics highlighted renewed investor interest in communication infrastructure equities. A key catalyst emerged from the ’s (FCC) proposed adjustments to 5G spectrum licensing rules, which could enhance tower operators’ revenue flexibility through revised site acquisition timelines. Analysts noted this regulatory shift may indirectly benefit AMT by expanding its tenants’ deployment capabilities without immediate capital outlay pressures.

Short-term technical indicators showed mixed signals. While the stock’s crossed above the 200-day line, suggesting potential , volume contraction compared to prior sessions raised questions about sustainability of the upward trend. Institutional activity remained subdued, with no major fund disclosures of position changes in the latest filings.

To run this strategy rigorously we need to resolve several practical details that aren’t specified explicitly in your request: 1. Stock universe • Do you want all U.S. listed common stocks (NYSE + NASDAQ + NYSE American)? • Should ETFs, ADRs or OTC names be excluded? 2. Execution assumptions • Buy the 500 highest-volume names at that day’s close and exit the entire basket the next day at the close (close-to-close return)? • Any transaction-cost or slippage model you’d like applied? 3. Re-balancing rules when the 500 names change from day to day • Equal-weight the basket each day? • Ignore stocks that become un-investable due to halts, delistings, etc. (i.e., drop them from the next day’s selection)? 4. Data scope / feasibility Our current tool set can fetch price and volume for individual tickers, but constructing a daily cross-section of 500 names for ~4 years (≈ 1,000 trading days → ~500,000 individual ticker-day pulls) is heavy. Two practical alternatives: a) Proceed with the full universe (will take some time to run). b) Use a representative subset (e.g., S&P 500 constituents) so that only the intra-index volume ranking is required. Please let me know which universe and execution details you prefer (and whether the lighter subset approach is acceptable). Once I have that, I can generate the retrieval plan and start the back-test.
