How it trades on rate days

How CCI has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.41 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), Crown Castle moved 0.41% on average · correlation 0.13 · higher than 42% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.50 about the same as over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −2.02% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days −3.70% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — Crown Castle

CCI in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Crown Castle owns and leases roughly 40,000 cell towers across the United States, renting space on them to wireless carriers that mount antennas and radio equipment. The towers form part of the physical network that carries mobile voice and data traffic. It operates as a REIT, a real estate investment trust that must distribute most of its taxable income as dividends. The company is headquartered in Houston and has traded publicly since 1998.
Where it sits in the stack
Crown Castle carries no seat in Closelooknet's own build-out indices; within our wider universe it sits under Real Estate, in the REIT - Specialty group that covers tower and infrastructure landlords rather than any layer of the AI stack itself.
Who it is priced against
There is no peer group set for it in the diary's records, but the market usually compares Crown Castle with American Tower and SBA Communications, the other large US tower operators that lease space to wireless carriers.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
Crown Castle is a constituent of the S&P 500 and carries no Closelooknet score. Its single appearance in the diary was incidental, in a report listing technical indicators, and does not reflect editorial coverage of the company.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether carriers keep adding equipment to existing towers as networks are upgraded, since tower revenue depends on tenants leasing more space rather than on the tower count changing.
