Abstract
The completion tower of a nonunital commutative ring is a classical construction in commutative algebra. In the setting of structured ring spectra as modeled by algebras over a spectral operad, the analogous construction is the homotopy completion tower. The purpose of this brief note is to show that smashing localizations, such as that given by the Johnson-Wilson spectrum E(n), commute with the terms of this tower.
