1247 ET - When asked about the risk posed by SpaceX's Starlink, AT&T CEO John Stankey says his company is in a good spot. "There are going to be new competitors, and there are going to be folks who come in, but the reality is, they're coming to the game very late after this industry has been established," he says during an appearance on CNBC. New players will have to catch up with substantial amounts of infrastructure investment that's been going on for decades, he says. (kelly.cloonan@wsj.com)
