stay tuned 

To hang on, awaiting more news on a subject.

On old dial-tuned AM radios before there were even preset buttons, it was a non-trivial task to tune into a particular station. So radio news announcers would tell their audience to stay tuned to the station if they were expecting more info on the current story."

Stay Tuned 

A phrase used by TikToker Daniel Larson at the end of his videos. His fans will often comment it under other people's videos to signify that he has liked one of their videos or talked about them.
Hello everyone, this is Daniel Larson. I will currently be going on tour with Grace Vanderwaal next year. And, we will possibly date. Stay tuned.

StayTuned 

The business version of 'we are waiting to see what happens during the next few steps before we make any moves or decisions'.

It is a very descriptive term, in the sense it immediately identifies the user as a douche.
Paul: Could you ask Peter if he could get us tickets to the game tonight.

Marion: Good call, I just sent him a text. StayTuned.

Paul: Fucking hell, forget it.
