Just before the president-elect gets seated, the U.S. Federal Communications Commission has called for a stop to regulatory reform measures that adversely affects firms like CenturyLink Inc., and AT&T Inc. Expectations that the commission will reject the proposal from FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler are also surfacing.

The proposal involves opening a market worth $20 billion that will provide pay-TV set-to boxes. If pursued, cable companies will greatly oppose the move while Apple Inc. Google will benefit from it. The said initiative has been backed-up by the outgoing administration.

Analyst Jan Dawson said that Google's involvement in this issue was more active that Apple's.

"I'm not sure it's critical to Google's business at all that it be allowed to provide these next generation set-top boxes, but there was a business opportunity there." Meanwhile, cable companies were left worried as the proposal will allow Apple and Google to create applications and devices that can carry their cable content advertisement.

Following Trump's win, chances of Obama's net neutrality rules being reversed are becoming more possible. A majority of the Republicans do not agree with net neutrality that mandates Internet service providers to set equal treatment of data while removing obstruction to online content.

Since the announcement of Trump's win, Google's parent company Alphabet, Netflix, and Amazon's shares have dropped by 2.4 percent, 5.9 percent, and two percent, respectively. Meanwhile, the shares of Comcast Corp. has risen by 7.7 percent while the shares of Verizon Communications Inc. and AT&T remain unchanged.
