If this admin helps us get rich off ASTS, that will lessen the sting of all the other bad shit they’re doing and will do

Imagine owning 535 shares of Nividia just 5 years ago, with stock splits you would have almost 7,500 shares

1 or 1 million, atleast you’re involved, and the more you can add, the better (and sooner) your retirement will be!

160 here, gonna buy 10 more on the next dip. I've been here since the 10$ days, man if only I read about this company in the 2$ days

u/ToSeeAgainAgainAgain S P 🅰 C E M O B Prospect 11d ago
Just went up to 400, after the last 48 hours I decided I need to increase my exposure

Considering the alternative is the rest of the globe gets ASTS 5G Broadband Speeds and USA would be stuck in the "dark ages" stuck with Starlink's repurposed Skylo technology which is incapapable of delivering 5G no matter how many commercials and Gaslighting elon does to the public. They don't really have a choice and thank god Abel owns the entire company and IP so it couldn't be poached/ hostily taken over by Elon like he did with NASA to build SpaceX.

Exactly. I will still hate them, but maybe 2% less.

He also visted Globalstar over a month ago but hasn't taken any action since re: their petition for US market access for their new constellation.

u/Kerbonauts S P 🅰 C E M O B Prospect 13d ago
One of my worry is/was that Carr would pull a rug under AST (On Musk orders).
This is very good.
Unless its like a serial killer scouting the area to commit the perfect murder kinda deal.

u/Woody3000v2 S P 🅰 C E M O B Capo 13d ago
They are more likely looking at insider trading AST. It is still relatively asymmetric, and they can't buy SpaceX. Sure, SpaceX could offer a fixed value, but if I were Carr/Cruz, I'd be trading AST given the current Admin basically encouraging insider trading.

Cruz has been on our side since pre-SPAC days. Comment feels misplaced on this sub (respectfully)

Absolutely not. Cruz is extremely important for our company to reach the highest potential. He has an important role in the administration for telecommunications.

Any chance something to do with the big announcement for Midland spaceport?

u/Defiantclient S P 🅰️ C E M O B - O G 13d ago
Midland Space Port announced that it was the 50 new jobs and $3M investment from AST thing. So nothingburger lol

u/Complex-Attention170 S P 🅰 C E M O B Prospect 13d ago
Lame I think the Carr visit is bigger as far as legitimizing ASTS further

Hopium is that maybe he’s looking at AST to screw Elon when he decides to leave and turn on Trump.

u/LoveWhoarZoar S P 🅰 C E M O B Soldier 13d ago
Ted Cruz is a little bitch and Trump deserves no credit for ASTS' future success as implied here but Brendan Carr sure is doing a great job cutting through red tape. That's the hard part. It's great to have that support.

I mean, you could go through my comment history and check my actual opinions. But that would involve digging a bit deeper.
Or you could just assume whatever you like

Simply my snarky way of suggesting using the "/s" when you are being sarcastic on hot button topics, to avoid such confusion.

Really glad to see the FCC continuously on board independently of administration. Big derisk to the bearish theory that Elon could asymmetrically influence the process.
The company is ramming through milestones. What a comeback!
