🚨🚨 $ASTS WEEK IN REVIEW🚨🚨

Block 2 gears up, FUDsters freak out as ASTS once against prepared to strike, and much more... Image
🪷ISRO Launch Coming. Not May Day, but a Day in May or June

It will be exciting to see the start of the main campaign. Block 2 Bluebird 6 starts the wave of launches that will occur over the next 12 months

🧑‍⚖️Guidance Confirmed

Nice to see everything reiterated

💙💙FCC Filings Shows Us BB2

FM1 coming.

Will allow AST SpaceMobile to test the satellite’s architecture and function of its mechanical systems
The instant test will evaluate various mechanical components and subsystems of the new platform, including mechanisms and firmware employed to unfold the FM1’s phased array antenna

Carr is moving quickly to get $ASTS ready to go

💩FUD Parade

It's always when ASTS is at its best moments of achievement does the Poo Police come out in force.

What the FUDsters did not anticipate is that this 'retail' community actually isn't retail. And it fights back.

Tim New FUD
ASTS has a filing requirement
ASTS has a thermal issue b/c it added a solar array
ASTS flying at same altitude as Block 1
Verizon within 2 years

Tim Farrar on Starlink
Starlink needs a bailout
Starlink $36bn valuation totally untenable (now 10x higher)
Starlink cost will be meaningfully higher than terrestrial and "not a big deal"
Starlink made 'outlandish' claims about its potential
Starlink 'fake it till you make it' (Tim knows!)

🍼The FUD Economy

Why the FUD? It sells. Shorts want things that fulfill their internal narrative and Tim sells them the notes they need

🔬Reminder: 3rd Party Validation

Reminder that ASTS is the only company to get this type of 3rd party validation

💸Huge Potential

The math is astounding. We only have to be right on a fraction of our assumptions

🤰Disruption Potential

I have always thought the scenario Catse outlines here is more likely than not. The tech will get better and better and the avoided costs of terrestrial will make it compelling

🦀We Are Seeing Telecom's Run From Towers

Sell while you have edge

🤔Interesting Math

$1/GB and overages at $2/GB for overages. You have to have a terminal and this is hardly convenient, although it will be fast

This is a data point on the value of convenience.

🚗Use Cases

I spent time with AST SpaceMobile’s chief executive Abel Avellan towards the end of the event, and we discussed several potential use cases for SatCo’s services beyond the obvious ability to use low earth orbit satellite connectivity for remote terrestrial network gap coverage. Three examples of this potential are dramatically improved connectivity services on commercial aircraft, support for large-scale agricultural technology deployments to improve crop and livestock yields and, eventually, widespread autonomous driving. This extensibility of AST SpaceMobile’s technology stack shows how it reaches well beyond simple SOS text messaging, such as the Business Direct to Cell service currently offered by its rival Starlink.

📰Catalyst Review

There are a lot of things that will help us pass the time until the constellation is up

😘Throwing Copper

The FCC looks to be throwing its weight behind upgrading networks

We know that AT&T believes it can use $ASTS to help it meet service requirements in expensive-to-serve areas

⭐️Star Wars

If you want to be on the right side of defense spending, you want to be invested in $ASTS

x.com/spacanpanman/s…

"I feel like there's no way to ignore the fact that the next and the most important domain of warfare will be the space domain. ... So, you're going to see far more investment from this administration into that domain, both offensively and defensively ... because that's where we can continue to maintain an advantage," Hegseth said.

👧More Stock Influencers Take Note

The tent is getting wider. Awareness matters. Antonion Linares has been in the middle of a lot of momo stocks. His recap nails the nice summary points; he understands this is a high moat business with a lot of upside.

💩More FUD. FUD Runs Amok

Shorts use any opportunity to attack $ASTS. Why?

🩳Short Interest Is High

Cost to borrow is extreme. People are demanding to short the stock and we don’t know if it’s a technical or if there is a new short thesis.

XOXO

Plan on 8 pm PST / 11 pm EST for Spaces although if I can, I'll try to do earlier.

🚨🚨 $ASTS WEEK IN REVIEW🚨🚨

Policy lock in, more FCC ground work, and a large slate of catalysts. That and more, on the Weekly Image
💋ASTS Is Hot Again (until Friday)

More attention. Does this stuff matter? Yes, in the sense if someone new is looking at it, the more surrounding validation that ASTS is a real company helps lower the threshold for people digging into the story. Then they will 🅰️themselves.

🔨ASTS Continues Its Infrastructure Build Out

🤯T-Mobile Advertises…$ASTS?

Wait, what the? Who had this on their bingo card? A T-Mobile advertisement for Starlink causes $ASTS to nearly double? Lol. Stocks are crazy. What's even funnier is that it flushed out that one of the great tech titans revealed he owned $ASTS. We are not alone.

📣Cantor Initiates

It starts. We'll get BAML soon. That could fire up a lot of long only buying and add significant credibility. Cantor notes that the #Spacemob is healthy and an asset. True. MNOs are free to use us. We love you. A waffle party went a long way toward getting our allegiance.

PS, where the f- is the Barclays coverage?
