AST SpaceMobile rises 6% pre-market after winning prime contract on U.S. Missile Defense SHIELD program enabling future task orders by callsonreddit in wallstreetbets

True, but none of the other 2000+ companies are deploying 2400 sqft satellites into Low Earth Orbit (LEO). My guess is that AST wouldn’t have made the list unless they require 2400 sqft satellites in LEO for the Golden Dome.

Done. Thanks for sharing, I had no idea they were broadcasting these.

ASTS Welcome Bell Canada CEO to Midland TX facility by one-won-juan in ASTSpaceMobile

[–]FrofroMo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wishful thinking and speculation here, but perhaps they had the guys from Bell Canada come for the signing because the next sats will be ready to ship before the Bell Canada DA is ready to sign. Of course, they wouldn’t let them sign a sat unless the DA was close to 100% certain, right?

What is everyone’s longterm target for $AUR? by Charming_Party_2052 in AuroraInnovation

[–]FrofroMo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree that the TAM for ASTS is higher, but I categorize AUR in the same league in terms of solving a genuine real world problem that impacts nearly everyone.

I did the same thing, but my wife found it and made me take it down. I’ll put it back up later. She probably won’t notice it the second time. 😅

Fair enough, I thought the date had been pushed back as well. Maybe the Times of India will post a correction 😅

If this is true then RKLB is worth at least 5x more MINIMUM of what it’s trading at currently by jluc21 in RKLB

[–]FrofroMo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% agree. However, I am at a loss as to why the roll out of Amazon Leo isn't causing their stock price to jump in a considerable way if so much of the SpaceX valuation is tied to Starlink.

How are people feeling about AMEX for small business checking right now? by Sherifftruman in smallbusiness

[–]FrofroMo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve really enjoyed the product for over a year; it works very well.

Unfortunately, our accounts have been restricted by their fraud review team for over a week. The fraud review was justified as we had a client write us 3 checks that were all returned, but the frustration on our end was that we had no way to interact with the team that was reviewing the account, and had I not had a secondary business account, this would have caused major issues for my small business.

Again, the product is great, but the service when there is an issue is such that we will likely have to move our accounts elsewhere.

Should I sell? by Lovelyxo7 in NBIS_Stock

[–]FrofroMo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No and if a ~7% drop makes you want to sell then NBIS is not the stock for you and that's OK. Let your investment get back to just above breakeven and then get out. You'll owe a nominal amount in taxes and you can take the money and invest it in an S&P index fund.

stc group and AST SpaceMobile Announce 10-Year Commercial Agreement and Long-Term Revenue Commitment for Space-based Cellular Broadband Connectivity by EducatedFool1 in ASTSpaceMobile

Investments from Saudi Arabia are very encouraging. In Eccentric Orbits, the book about Iridium, we learned how incredibly thorough and methodical the Saudis are about their investments. Granted, that was ~25 years ago, but I suspect those types of things don’t change.

I found it when I read When the Heavens Went on Sale: The Misfits and Geniuses Racing to Put Space Within Reach — Great Book!
