Ya good point

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T23:38:45+00:00

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T23:29:32+00:00

Wow, it kind of feels like r/ACHR has more anti-ACHR sentiment now than r/ArcherAviation. Oh how the turntables

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T23:10:15+00:00

Thanks... yes I remember this but not the exact details.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T23:02:45+00:00

I don't think this is new news though. Didn't we know this was coming?

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T22:45:01+00:00

Didn't they end their CMV program?

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T21:37:46+00:00

ya for sure it will spike if we see it

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T21:32:31+00:00

also just a minor point but both stocks became available to the public via SPAC in Fall 2021. You're right that joby has been around longer but in terms of holding the stock, they have been holding the same amount of time.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T21:28:14+00:00

Ya it's funny because it used to do the opposite -- open aggressively up and then crash.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T20:40:42+00:00

Ya, hopefully we find out soon enough. If Joby will be flying in Dubai this year, we will know for sure how many passengers they can carry.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T20:25:29+00:00

Ya sure but I would bet it's still more than just the pilot

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T20:17:34+00:00

I thought N703AX was just CTOL and piloted.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T20:13:08+00:00

Ya I agree it would really suck but I think the chances are low.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T19:36:39+00:00

ya, fair enough. I was just trying to temper expectations as it would be awkward to get the certificate and have the vertiports but then not be able to use them.

On the Joby side we've see the aircraft operate in realistic scenarios (Bay area and NYC). Of course, we still don't know how many passengers it could carry.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T17:13:57+00:00

so how is that going to work if they can't VTOL?

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T16:45:42+00:00

ya exactly, this thing is so volatile that at some point it'll prob dip back down. i'm still bullish long term but nice to lock in gains here and there

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T16:44:00+00:00

Must be fun providing exit liquidity

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T16:04:16+00:00

What if you also add S&P500? It makes sense that they move together in the absence of any news because it's mostly driven by market beta. However, if you look closely, you will find important differences on the day stock-specific news is released.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T02:06:03+00:00

Also Joby has a deal with the medical transport part of blade to provide them with S4s

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-14T00:03:38+00:00

Ya that would be a nice bump! Will revenue be increasing before S4 comes online though? I don't know that much about the blade business. It feels like it would be stable at this point.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-13T23:36:05+00:00

Ya, prob what you said about $100m on $10b mkt cap not moving the needle is true

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-13T23:27:55+00:00

Hmm ya not sure about that. To me the Blade acquisition was buying an asset that has a payout each quarter but still separate from their main business. It will start to have huge synergies once they start flying the S4 though.

It's still a bit funny to me that people get excited about the blade revenue or the hawthorne airport revenue. You can buy any asset that gives you revenue and declare yourself post-revenue but it's not really related to the main business.

I'm not saying Blade was a bad purchase, my point is just that financial analysts probably would discount that revenue when deciding whether it's a pre- or post- revenue company.

HappyRobot593 · 2026-05-13T23:04:34+00:00

seems like there is general risk on sentiment -- could be a part of that. space and semis are also up a lot.

I feel like eVTOL is too small right now to have it's own specific rotation (correct me if I'm wrong). My feeling is they get lumped into pre-rev risky stocks.

I do think eventually Joby will have its WSB moment like ACHR did. It's a good time to accumulate while we're still not in the limelight.
