EchoStar (DISH) Falls Over 7% After Hours

A number of rumors about an AT&T (T) buy-out of satellite TV provider Echostar (DISH) took the stock up 19% today to $47.49.

But, it may all have been too good to be true. DISH fell 7% after hours. Perhaps Wall St. figured out that AT&T can have a partnership with EchoStar with without owning it, or that the phone company’s fiber-to-the-home business will eventually compete with EchoStar and DirecTV (DTV).
