Undeniable Tailwinds for MTNOY

Would love to hear opinions on a company like MTN (MTNOY). MTN is the largest mobile network operator in Africa, based in SA but with a controlling share of the market in Nigeria, Ghana, Zambia, Ivory Coast, and runner up in Iran and South Africa They’ve expanded into fintech with a 23% rev growth YoY as of Q3 25 and is the dominant mobile payment system in both Ghana and Uganda. They’ve been building out their most by buying out IHS towers for 6.2 billion so now they’ll own towers instead of bleeding money paying for them + its competitors will now start paying them for access as well The stock price has been volatile and has just recovered to around $12 where it was 3ish years ago, and as an African company they are obviously in constant trouble with geopolitical shit like US Israel & Iran fears as well as general instability in most of its markets. Another worry would be companies like starlink cutting into their market share before they can establish dominance with the new demographic that Africa will have in the coming decades. These are some basic facts and there’s more out there and plenty of things I haven’t mentioned, but at the core of my investment thesis is the fact that Africa is producing major companies that thrive on large populations, and the continent as a whole isn’t anywhere close to its peak. I say continent but really MTN isn’t everywhere yet, but even if it can maintain its dominance in the markets I listed the company is in place to become the largest service/fintech company in the world Crazy things happen and sometimes companies with everything going for them get replaced by someone else, but this seems like a great bet that is far closer to materializing than it was 10 years ago since much of the continent is now closer to their baby boomers turning into teens Thoughts?
