$ASTS. Even $SPCX says this is true. SpaceX is an amazing company. But for mobile connectivity, $ASTS will prove to be amazing-er.

Encapsulation complete. BlueBirds 8, 9, and 10 are now secured inside Falcon 9's fairing ahead of launch. A stacked configuration powered by advanced carbon fiber structures, engineered to withstand ascent forces comparable to carrying a fully loaded space shuttle orbiter during launch. 💪 Next stop: launch. 🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀 Built in Texas. Broadband from space. Designed to connect directly to everyday smartphones. 🌎📶📱 #ASTSpaceMobile #Broadband #ConnectingtheUnconnected #BlueBirds

$ASTS and the continous deployment flow. AST is transitioning to an "Execution Story". It will come as no surprise to SpaceMob stalking every new factory building raised and every new imported shipment. But it will surprise the market as satellite shipments starts rolling out.

Confirming the post I made Friday on the $SATS / $ASTS proxy unwind - it's playing out exactly as described. Friday I mentioned the entire space complex was being sold to fund direct $SPCX buys. SATS - the purest SpaceX proxy that exists, holding $11B of actual SpaceX stock also got dumped 14% on IPO day. The logic: once you can buy the real thing, you sell the proxy. That dynamic continued through today morning. SPCX kept climbing post-IPO. The proxy names got sold. ASTS got dragged down with them - and bounced off its lows today as buyers stepped in. But here's the distinction that matters more every day this plays out: SATS gets sold because it genuinely IS a SpaceX proxy. Its entire value depends on SpaceX. When that trade unwinds, nothing underneath catches it. $ASTS and other space stocks got sold by association - lumped into the same basket despite being a SpaceX competitor, not a proxy. Its catalysts have nothing to do with SpaceX: BB8-10 launches Wednesday, radar testing for the Space Force is live, Japan's J-LEO decision lands this month, $1.2B backlog, 18% short interest. $ASTS was collateral damage in a trade that was never about it. That's not a broken thesis, that's a CLEAR mispricing. The rotation exhausts itself. What's left standing is what matters. SATS is left holding a SpaceX stake. ASTS is left with the densest independent catalyst stack of the year and it's already bouncing. Not calling the bottom. But know the difference between a broken thesis and a stock caught in someone else's trade. Launch is in ~36 hours. $ASTS 🛰️🚀

$ASTS: 🚨 SPACEX AST SPACEMOBILE BLUEBIRD 8-10 MISSION PAGE IS LIVE SpaceX is targeting Wednesday, June 17 for launch of AST SpaceMobile’s BlueBird 8-10 mission to orbit from Space Launch Complex 40 (SLC-40) at Cape Canaveral Space Force Station in Florida. Liftoff is targeted for 2:39 a.m. ET with additional opportunities available 4:15 a.m. ET. If needed, a backup launch opportunity is available on Thursday, June 18 during a launch window that opens at 2:19 a.m. ET. A live webcast of this mission will begin about 15 minutes prior to liftoff, which you can watch here and on X @SpaceX. This will be the 29th flight for the Falcon 9 first stage booster supporting this mission, which previously launched Crew-5, GPS III Space Vehicle 06, Inmarsat I6-F2, CRS-28, Intelsat G-37, NG-20, TD7, and 21 Starlink missions. After stage separation, the first stage will land on the A Shortfall of Gravitas droneship, which will be stationed in the Atlantic Ocean.

$ASTS ​The "SpaceX Crowding-Out Effect" that flushed the stock on Friday has effectively exhausted its selling pressure. The market opened this morning (Monday, June 15) with an aggressive gap-up to around $86.20. ​The data confirms that the high-volume flush on Friday was a textbook structural liquidation event, setting up an entirely new baseline for what is officially Launch Week. ​Expect a steady, upward-grinding "short-covering" rally through Monday afternoon and Tuesday session close. Short-sellers who pressed the stock into the low $80s last week face immense overnight risk holding their positions into a live rocket launch; their forced buying to close out shorts will act as a natural tailwind.

Bluebird 8/9/10 is next on deck at LC-40! $ASTS 🚀

$ASTS 🚀 ​The market is now officially closed for the weekend, and the "SpaceX Crowding-Out Effect" has completed its initial wave. ​Starting Monday morning, the entire financial media and algorithmic trading ecosystem will shift their focus from the completed IPO to the next imminent catalyst in the sky: AST SpaceMobile's locked-in BlueBird 8, 9, and 10 satellite launch this coming Wednesday, June 17. Time to sit back, ignore the weekend noise, and watch the narrative transition toward launch week!

Happy SpaceX IPO Day to those who celebrate 🥳 $ASTS

$ASTS Looks like we have another rocket in the supply chain. Congrats to the H3 flight 06 on successful launch and deployment. Can wait to see 3 Bluebirds on that beautiful candle.

$ASTS In May 2026, SpaceX's S-1 became the most explicit statement the market has ever seen about Elon Musk's intentions regarding the telecommunications business. By valuing its connectivity segment against a total market of $1.6 trillion, SpaceX is not signaling an alliance with mobile operators. He is signaling his replacement, to the greatest extent that physics allows. Not in twelve months. But the ten-year arc is clear. Faced with that, the industry has organized around a single name: @AST_SpaceMobile. telesemana.com/blog/2026/06/…

$ASTS: Pitstop Ahead of June 17th BlueBird 8, 9, 10 Launch - New Nuggets and Watershed SpaceX IPO Today @ 10AM EST x.com/i/spaces/1RKjppkYXlWJw

Rough day. Nasdaq down, Iran tensions back, CPI fears building, rate hike talk creeping in. $ASTS caught in the wash. Not going to lie - I hate seeing red like everyone else. Some days you stare at the screen and wonder if the market knows something you don't. Then I remind myself what happened just today. Launch confirmed for June 17. India blocked Starlink over national security. FCC radiolocation testing for the Space Force starts in 3 days. SpaceX prices its IPO in 2 days at $1.75T telling every fund manager on Earth that D2D is a $740B market. The company is executing. Macro just doesn't care right now. I'm not the 2021 OG who's been through every dip and doesn't flinch anymore. Red days still bother me. What keeps me steady is position sizing and knowing what I own. I come from an engineering background and have been taking a satellite NTN course to understand this technology at the deepest level. When bears spread misinformation about spectrum or antenna physics, I can read through it. When they say "SpaceX will figure it out" - that's not how physics works. This company was $2 three years ago. No satellites. No authorization. No carrier JV. No defense contracts. No proven speeds. Today - 248 satellites authorized. 98.9 Mbps proven. Three US carriers in a JV. Radar for the Space Force. $3.5B cash. 60 partners. 3 more satellites launching in 8 days. Cheaper on fundamentals today than it was on promises at $2. Red days pass. June is just getting started. $ASTS 🛰️
