12 Communication Services Stocks Moving In Thursday's After-Market Session

Editor&#8217;s note: This story has been corrected to reflect that Tim Walz is the governor of Minnesota. 
In previous presidential elections, the Democratic and Republican candidates typically didn&#8217;t address cannabis and cryptocurrency as issues <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/election-day">heading into Election Day</a>. 
This year, it&#8217;s different. Both Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump have recognized cannabis and cryptocurrency — two areas of coverage for Benzinga — as key topics of interest among the electorate.
On Tuesday and Wednesday, the future of the cannabis market will be front and center at the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/cannabis-conference/">Benzinga Cannabis Capital Conference in Chicago</a>. 
For Trump, he seemingly took a hint <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/05/38880719/biden-announces-monumental-marijuana-rescheduling-doj-to-take-next-steps">from the Biden-Harris administration</a> and recognized that a majority of people, including most Republicans, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/05/38922599/69-of-voters-including-majority-of-republicans-support-marijuana-legalization-did-you-catch-that">favor marijuana legalization</a>. Last month, he even expressed a desire to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/40774795/trump-says-hell-reschedule-cannabis-if-elected-backs-marijuana-banking-reform-and-floridas-amend">federally reschedule cannabis</a> if he&#8217;s re-elected — a take that&#8217;s at odds <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/05/38649648/ron-desantis-plan-to-scuttle-floridas-cannabis-legalization-initiative-with-his-vast-fundraising">with other GOP leaders</a>. 
And when it comes to crypto, Trump was notoriously <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40429919/trumps-crypto-reversal-ex-president-reportedly-holds-more-than-1m-in-digital-assets">a skeptic at first</a>. Not anymore. Now the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/21/01/19152983/donald-trump-is-the-first-us-president-to-be-impeached-twice">twice-impeached former president</a> is looking to cash in on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/09/40668757/trump-vs-harris-majority-of-us-crypto-owners-support-this-candidate">crypto fandom he&#8217;s amassed</a> and launch, with his sons, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40800775/donald-trumps-world-liberty-financial-plans-to-raise-540m-with-token-sale">a new business venture</a> called World Liberty Financial. 
Voters keen on knowing where Harris stands on each issue will likely hope to get some answers this week when she and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, her running mate, embark on a media blitz, starting Monday night with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/10/41214476/will-kamala-harriss-media-blitz-including-60-minutes-and-call-her-daddy-improve-her-2024-el">a &#8220;60 Minutes&#8221; interview</a>.
The Democratic ticket will face a multitude of pointed questions on a variety of topics: the economy, inflation, women&#8217;s rights and saving democracy.
Whether Harris mentions cannabis or crypto in her media appearances this week remains to be seen. Until then, here&#8217;s a recap of the candidate&#8217;s stance and questions her interviewers would be wise to ask.

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Harris On Cannabis</h3>
Last week, Harris — in an interview on &#8220;All the Smoke&#8221; — reiterated her stance on cannabis legalization to hosts and former NBA players Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson.
"I just feel strongly, people should not be going to jail for smoking weed. And we know historically what that has meant and who has gone to jail," Harris <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/09/41106120/kamala-harris-we-need-to-legalize-cannabis-vp-says-for-first-time-as-presidential-candidate-in-a">told Barnes and Jackson</a>.
On average, Black people are 3.6 times more likely to be arrested on marijuana charges, according to ACLU data.
"Second, I just think we have come to a point where we have to understand that we need to legalize it and stop criminalizing this behavior," she added. "And actually, this is not a new position for me. I have felt for a long time we need to legalize. So that's where I am on that."
Harris&#8217; <a href="https://apnews.com/article/harris-positions-flipflop-trump-marijuana-death-penalty-f35dbacc2137e6aebc214befd4503ff8">critics</a> often point to her time as California attorney general from 2011 to 2017. At the time, she did not support legalizing recreational use of marijuana. Since then, she&#8217;s changed her view.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/20/10/17835892/kamala-harris-pledges-to-decriminalize-marijuana-expunge-records-at-vp-debate">During her 2020 debate</a> with then-Vice President Mike Pence, Harris promised to decriminalize the drug and expunge marijuana-related criminal records. By 2022, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/22/10/29175510/breaking-biden-announces-pardons-for-all-federal-marijuana-possession-convictions">White House announced a pardon</a> of all prior federal offenses of simple marijuana possession.
Key Question To Ask: Why has the number of people still imprisoned remained unchanged? The Last Prisoner Project has been calling on the White House to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/10/41214802/joe-biden-quick-question-before-you-go-are-those-cannabis-pardons-from-2-years-ago-still-on">make good on its promise</a>. 
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/cannabis-conference/"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="970" height="250" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/07112738/ccc-oct-24-banner__1_-14.gif" alt="" class="wp-image-583764" /></a></figure>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Harris On Crypto</h3>
Polymarket, where gamblers bet on real-world events using cryptocurrency, currently has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41214859/this-polymarket-trader-holds-6-4-million-in-donald-trump-election-bets-if-not-musk-definit">Trump in the lead</a>. This is perhaps a reflection of how the crypto community views Harris. 
Over the last four years, crypto investors and venture capitalists have grown frustrated with the way Biden-appointed SEC Chair Gary Gensler approached the industry.
Harris hears these complaints. She <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/09/40972902/kamala-harris-finally-mentions-crypto-and-that-too-on-wall-street-promises-to-encourage-in" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">recently commented</a> on the future of digital assets at a Manhattan fundraiser, adding it to "innovative technologies" like artificial intelligence that are worth supporting.
She has also <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/09/20/anthony-scaramucci-kamala-harris-campaigns-digital-asset-policies-.html">asked</a> SkyBridge Capital managing partner Anthony Scaramucci and other crypto advocates to advise her campaign's policies on digital assets.
Trump once dismissed cryptocurrency as worthless. He <a href="https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1149472282584072192" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">warned</a> in 2019 that unregulated Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) and other digital assets can &#8220;facilitate unlawful behavior, including drug trade and other illegal activity.&#8221; The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/08/33851310/donald-trump-election-fraud-probe-georgia-grand-jury-reportedly-issues-10-indictments">quadruple-indicted candidate</a> has since pivoted 180 degrees on his position.
Key Question To Ask: Who would Harris name as SEC chair if she&#8217;s elected president? The future of the sector depends on it, as businesses dealing with crypto remain in the dark on the industry&#8217;s legal nuances. Trump is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41212008/trump-considers-robinhood-exec-dan-gallagher-for-sec-chair-if-re-elected">reportedly looking to make his pick</a>.
What's Next: The influence of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/is-bitcoin-a-good-investment" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bitcoin as an institutional asset class</a>&nbsp;is expected to be explored at Benzinga's upcoming&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/events/digital-assets/agenda/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Future of Digital Assets</a>&nbsp;event. Check it out on Nov. 19.
And in addition to &#8220;60 Minutes,&#8221; Harris has several other media appearances during the week, including:

Kamala Harris On Cannabis And Crypto: Key Questions That Could Be Answered On '60 Minutes' (CORRECTED)

Vice President Kamala Harris is ramping up media appearances with less than one month to go until the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/2024-election"> 2024 presidential election.</a>
Here's a look at Harris's schedule for the week and how it could strengthen her visibility in the presidential race.
What Happened: One criticism of Harris since she became the Democratic Party's 2024 nominee is her lack of media interviews. Her appearance on "60 Minutes" Monday is one of several <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/entertainment/24/09/41011819/trump-harris-could-appear-in-back-to-back-60-minutes-interviews-could-paramount-stock-be-a-">high-profile media spots </a>during a busy week that could help dispel doubts.
"60 Minutes," a program by Paramount Global (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARA#NASDAQ">PARA</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PARAA#NASDAQ">PARAA</a>) unit CBS, will air a special election edition of the news program Monday, Oct. 7 at 8 p.m. ET. Harris took part in an interview for the episode while former President Donald Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41133540/trump-backs-out-of-planned-60-minutes-interview-ex-presidents-campaign-says-cbs-asked-for-unpreceden">backed out</a> or never agreed to appear on the program, depending on who you ask.
Harris has several other media appearances during the week, including:
<ul>
<li>Tuesday, Oct. 8, 11 a.m. ET: "The View" on ABC</li>
<li>Tuesday, Oct. 8, 1 p.m. ET: "The Howard Stern Show" on SiriusXM (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SIRI#NASDAQ">SIRI</a>)</li>
<li>Tuesday, Oct. 8, 11:35 p.m. ET: "Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on CBS</li>
<li>Thursday, Oct. 10, 10 p.m. ET: Town Hall with TelevisaUnivision, which is 45% owned by Grupo Televisa (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TV#NYSE">TV</a>)</li>
</ul>
Harris' running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz is also increasing his media appearances, which included an appearance on "Fox News Sunday" over the weekend. Walz will also appear on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Monday and an unnamed pop culture podcast later this week, as <a href="https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politics-news/kamala-harris-media-blitz-howard-stern-the-view-colbert-1236025387/">reported </a>by The Hollywood Reporter.

</ul>
Why It's Important: Several of the interviews were pre-taped, and others will be live, which could show that Harris is now ready to turn her attention to an all-out media blitz with one month until the 2024 election day.
With Trump opting out of another presidential debate against Harris, both candidates are left to make their case through speeches and media appearances.
Harris's appearance on "60 Minutes" Monday and Trump's refusal to be featured in the episode could show a difference in the media strategy of the candidates.
With both candidates targeting undecided Hispanic voters, the Town Hall on Thursday could be a key event for Harris. A town hall by the media outlet with Trump in Miami will air on Tuesday, Oct. 8 at 10 p.m. ET.
Harris's appearance on "The Howard Stern Show" and a weekend appearance on the "Call Her Daddy" podcast could benefit SiriusXM, which is the home of both shows.
Known for often talking to guests about sex, the latest &#8220;Call Her Daddy&#8221; episode that featured Harris has drawn backlash as being too political and coming across as propaganda, as <a href="https://nypost.com/2024/10/07/us-news/call-her-daddy-fans-blast-podcast-host-alex-cooper-over-kamala-harris-interview/">reported </a>by the New York Post.
Fans of the popular podcast were also upset that Harris was not questioned more on controversial topics like illegal immigration and the Biden administration's response to Hurricane Helene.
Tuesday's appearance on "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" marks Harris' first since becoming the presidential nominee in August. CBS said this will be Harris' seventh appearance with Colbert on the show, with her first appearance on April 19, 2018 as a senator and the most recent appearance on March 15, 2023 as the vice president, as <a href="https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/kamala-harris-the-late-show-with-stephen-colbert-returns-tuesday-1236169155/">reported </a>by Variety.
While Harris has been leading Trump in most 2024 election polls, prediction market Polymarket shows users betting on Trump to win the election, with his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/10/41205762/donald-trump-takes-2-7-point-election-betting-odds-lead-over-kamala-harris-more-accurate-t">odds now ahead </a>of the current vice president.
Election betting odds and polls released next week could show the impact of Harris' media blitz.

Group B: Mexico (15), Ecuador (30), Venezuela (54), Jamaica (53)
Group C: U.S. (11), Uruguay (14), Panama (43), Bolivia (84)
Group D: Brazil (4), Colombia (12), Paraguay (58), Costa Rica (52)
The winner of Group A will play the runner-up of Group B, the winner of Group B will play the runner-up of Group A, the winner of Group C will play the runner-up of Group D and the winner of Group D will play the runner-up of Group C.
Argentina is the betting favorite and the reigning champion of the tournament. Argentina is also the defending World Cup champion, helping to secure the number one ranking in the world. The team features global superstar Lionel Messi, who could be playing in his last international tournament for Argentina.
Messi scored four goals in the 2020 Copa América and was named the best player of the tournament. Messi scored seven goals in the 2022 World Cup, ranking second among all players during the tournament.
Betting Odds: The 2024 Copa América features only two of the top 10 ranked teams in the world based on FIFA rankings and they are the favorites to win the tournament.
Here are the current betting odds to win 2024 Copa América from DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKNG#NASDAQ">DKNG</a>):
Argentina: +175
Brazil: +225
Uruguay: +500
Colombia: +1,000
U.S.: +1,200
Mexico: +1,400
Ecuador: +1,400
Argentina and Brazil being heavy favorites could provide more value on teams like Uruguay and Colombia for bettors, but the teams could also face off in the first elimination game based on their group placements.
The winner of Group B, for which Mexico is a slight favorite (+110), could have an easier path, playing the runner-up of Group A and avoiding Argentina or Brazil until later in the tournament.
Messi ranks as the favorite to be the top goalscorer during the tournament with odds of +330. Darwin Nunez (Uruguay) and Vinicius Junior (Brazil) follow closely behind at odds of +450 each. Colombia's Luis Diaz is listed at +3,500 and could be an interesting pick if the team advances deep into the tournament.
Fans of the U.S. Soccer team will find Christian Pulisic with odds of +4,000 to be the tournament's top goalscorer.
DraftKings also has several Team USA-specific props, including what stage of the tournament they will be eliminated in and an over/under of 7.5 goals in the tournament. A special prop bet is if Team USA will qualify from Group C without conceding a goal in the three games, with odds of +1,200.
Stocks to Watch: Fox could be the big winner from its soccer coverage during the summer. The media company will air Euro games during the day and Copa América games at night, a potentially perfect combination to get the best from its exclusive coverage.
Grupo Televisa, a key owner of Univision, could also benefit from the Spanish-language rights to the tournament with several Spanish-speaking countries taking part in the country and soccer remaining incredibly popular with the Spanish-language-speaking population of the U.S.
Univision's TUDN <a href="https://corporate.televisaunivision.com/press/press-releases/2021/07/13/61935/">had </a>over three million viewers for the 2020 Copa América final, up double digits from the previous tournament. The media unit averaged 1.8 million total viewers for the final eight matches in the tournament and had an average of 1.1 million total viewers for the 28 matches in the tournament.
A <a href="https://www.thewrap.com/biden-harris-copa-america-advertisement-campaign/">report </a>from The Wrap highlighted the rise of political ads during the Copa América with the Biden-Harris 2024 election campaign spending seven figures on advertising during the tournament. The ad spend is being done in a push to Latino voters and could benefit Univision with its coverage.
"Our campaign knows the power of showing up to earn the Latino vote, and today's historic announcement to organize and mobilize around Copa América is a perfect example of doing that important work," Biden-Harris 2024 Campaign Manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez said.
The Biden-Harris campaign will also sponsor local events during the Copa América tournament, including in key swing states of Arizona and Nevada, according to the report.
Another stock to watch is Anheuser-Busch InBev SA (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BUD#NYSE">BUD</a>), which is the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/sports/23/12/36166611/lionel-messi-to-the-rescue-could-soccer-superstar-help-beer-company-move-past-boycott-and-backlash"> official beer sponsor</a> of the tournament. The company also has signed Messi as the company's brand ambassador.
Instead of promoting its struggling Bud Light brand, Anheuser-Busch InBev will use the tournament to promote its Michelob Ultra brand.
"I look forward to the energy the United States will bring to the competition and the memorable experiences and atmosphere Michelob Ultra will help create for football teams, players and fans alike," Messi previously said.

Benchmark analyst Matthew Harrigan reiterates Grupo Televisa (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TV#NYSE">TV</a>) with a Buy and maintains $12 price target.

Benchmark Reiterates Buy on Grupo Televisa, Maintains $12 Price Target

Actor and entrepreneur Ryan Reynolds is buying another soccer team, adding a win to his sports assets after his previous attempt to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/m-a/23/03/31362824/ryan-reynolds-mobile-company-gets-1-35b-buyout-from-t-mobile-will-he-purchase-an-nhl-team-with-that">buy an NHL team failed.</a>
Here's the latest on Reynolds&#8217;s soccer ventures.
 What Happened: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ryan-reynolds">Actors Reynolds </a>and Rob McElhenney bought a stake in Necaxa, a Mexican soccer team that plays in Liga MX.
Exiting owners of Necaxa include actress Eva Longoria and investors Al Tylis and Sam Porter, according to <a href="https://variety.com/2024/biz/news/ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-club-necaxa-eva-longoria-wrexham-1235985035/">Variety</a>.
The move followed Reynolds and McElhenney buying the Welsh soccer team Wrexham FC, which is one of the oldest soccer teams in the world. The acting duo brought an increased fan base to the team and help it through several promotions.
Terms of the deal were not announced, but the minority investment was believed to be significant according to sources. 
Club Necaxa was valued in the low nine-figure range in 2021 when Tylis, Porter and Longoria bought around 50% of the franchise. The team was valued at around $200 million in a 2022 funding round that brought on new investors.

Why It's Important: While no media plans have been announced, Reynolds and McElhenney's purchase of Wrexham previously led to the docuseries "Welcome to Wrexham" airing on FX, a unit of Walt Disney Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DIS#NYSE">DIS</a>).
Two seasons of the hit series have aired with a third set to premiere on May 2, 2024. The series won five Emmy Awards for its first season including Best Unstructured Reality Program.
Liga MX is the most-watched soccer league in the U.S., outdrawing the country's own Major League Soccer.
The league doesn't sell commercial rights in a package, instead allowing teams to <a href="https://www.sportico.com/leagues/soccer/2023/liga-mx-televisa-president-international-broadcast-rights-consolidation-1234723898/">negotiate </a>their own deals. Necaxa's media rights in the U.S. currently belong to Univision, which is owned by TelevisaUnivision, a joint venture which counts Grupo Televisa (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TV#NYSE">TV</a>) as the largest holder.
Major League Soccer previously discussed a merger with Liga MX. The two leagues have the Leagues Cup, which includes teams from both countries.
The new celebrity owners could help boost overall attention to Necaxa and Liga MX.
While Necaxa had a string of success in the 1990s the team has struggled in recent years. In the 2023-2024 season, the team ranked ninth in Liga MX. The previous season saw a 17th place out of 18 teams finish in the Liga MX.
Similar to other soccer leagues, but unlike the MLS, Liga MX uses a promotion and relegation system that moves up the best teams each season and moves down the worst teams. The league suspended this system in 2020 in a move to last through 2026.
Returning Necaxa to a higher position in the league and boosting the fan base could help the team negotiate better television deals on its own.

<h1>How Are Analyst Ratings Determined?</h1>
Ratings come from analysts, or specialists within banking and financial systems that report for specific stocks or defined sectors (typically once per quarter for each stock). Analysts usually derive their information from company conference calls and meetings, financial statements, and conversations with important insiders to reach their decisions.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.
