ASTS

yourbikash

I just took care of this 'problem' last week. 3 of my stocks - NVDA, PLTR and RKLB- grew 10x and were about 35% of my portfolio. I just sold 30% of each in first few days of this year and moved some of that money to VOO, some to Google and some to other high risk/reword stocks like ASTS, LUNR, NBIS, IREN etc. I actually sold 30% of PLTR and RKLB about a year back as well and they have more than doubled since then. Hurts a bit but I guess, that is smart. Also, I wanted to pick other high risk stocks.

Nearly all my gains were from holding WSB classics ASTS BTC ASML and swing trading 3mo calls on them

the fundamental are insane, Thursdays analyst warning for ASTS was a breath of sanity — question is when do I place my puts? March June or Sept?  Source: I lead LEO comm infrastructure for many years 

sovereign_MD

Yes, fundamentals are so so critical. Just look at TSLA, RKLB, PLTR, ASTS…

Wooden-Prize-4694

I wish I did but ASTS gonna need some nuclear energy for the rockets to go up 👀

Legitimate-Space8847

Bro buy ASTS and go to sleep

callsonreddit

What are some good momentum stocks that have more room to run? Ex: ASTS APLD RKLB ONDS

CoC_Axis_of_Evil

ASTS and rocket lab will go so high until a market pullback triggers margin calls and they will easily fall 50% from the peak.

RYCEY was being pushed heavily on all the investing subs a few years ago. Reddit is by far the best place I’ve discovered stocks that have subsequently made huge gains. RKLB, ASTS, PLTR, GME, etc. Lots of crap gets pushed too, but look at the best performers for the year and they’re always discussed in advance here

Opposite_Engine_6776

“Margin the Lambo” said someone in the ASTS sub. We’re back in the halcyon days, aren’t we?

Vegetable-War-8539

110k savings…. 950k ASTS. Like a true window licker

Avenger_of_Justice

Currently Aurora, Lynas and Iluka. I sold RKLB and ASTS in December. Then I accidentally bought another 100k of Aurora just before the bounce because I was trading tired and drunk.

Blackhole_sun81

ASTS and/or RKLB Its so obvious 

ps850

I did the same exact thing with 1000k shares of ASTS a few years back. Can’t scroll 1 min without being reminded. Lol.

BoredandTypin

I understand the concept of taking profits but you also have to ask yourself what are you going to do with that money. First. Pay taxes. So you lose some % to LTCG that you need to make up in your next investment. And you need to decide where to deploy that capital that will perform better than ASTS. if you have a target that will overcome the taxes and have a strategy that you believe will outperform ASTS then do it. If not. Then consider holding. For me. I don’t have a better selection and truly believe in the LT of the company and so I’m not selling. Avg cost basis is about $16. I believe in letting winners run. Sell some covered calls if you want some cash.

BouchWick

$RKLB $NBIS $ASTS are good ones, the rest is just an utterly trash portfolio.

Ok_Employment_192

In my portfolio I have RKLB, ASTS, NBIS, and AMPX. So I really hope you will do it my friend ✌️

Rnd1337_

My focus is on long-term investment, so my core position is the FTSE All-World (VWCE). The rest is therefore more risky conviction picks as a potential boost for the next 5-10 years: KRKNF, RKLB, ASTS, ONDS, NBIS, IREN, LAES, ABCL, PRME

nanotothemoon

The amount of money doesn’t matter. Everyone has a different threshold for what “a lot” of money is. If you are investing there is nothing to sweat about. You only sweat when you are gambling. There is a clear difference. When investing, the decisions are already pre-made. If you just picking stocks and timing trying to time the market on the fly, you are gambling. In each of those scenarios ASTS is considered a high risk stock. You could own a high risk stock as a part of your investment strategy but most of the time your strategy is not 100% high risk stocks. Why? Well because it’s very high risk. You are pretty much always dollar cost averaging when investing. Even If your strategy was to buy a single high risk stock as 50% of your portfolio, you shouldn’t be sweating at all time highs or any particular value of your fund at any time. Unless you are constantly unable to stick to your strategy due to fear that you are at too much risk, in which case, maybe 50% portfolio in high risk individual stocks is a not a good strategy for you.

Vegetable-War-8539

Buy low sell high ASTS calls the past month or so

Satorius96

You mean ASTS or ASST?

Apetarded4980

A bit early but ASTS will pay dividends eventually!!

iLov3musk

Quick summary dyor. TSLA - leading in robotics, ASTS - going operational this year and will start making revenue, OKLO - this is just common sense energy is a AI bottleneck

chainer3000

This. I might have missed the top but I booked massive profits across multiple accounts, I will wait for a macro event pullback. Same for ASTS. Will buy back in after a large pullback

terraform0805

Could you point out in what aspects? I recognize these as highly speculative bets, which don't fit my style but I'm still interested to hear your thinking. TSLA seems to have lost all mooring from fundamentals and BYD is eating its lunch in every market its allowed in. I'm also concerned that Musk's volatility in the public eye and multiple companies vying for his attention is troubling for TSLA's core business. What's the bull case that doesn't depend on Gamestop-like meme stock performance? ASTS is finally in its execution phase which is exciting, but the balance sheet is too risky for me and I'm not confident it can stand up to Starlink. I'm assuming you think differently, why? Now OKLO I am interested in, but it's price to book is 18 compared to the sector median of 2, and it's not profitable, running a -6% loss compared to a sector median of +3%. When do you think it will reach profitability? Do you have any insights on its leadership?

iLov3musk

🤣 none lmao TSLA, ASTS, OKLO are all better

ASTS

Derek_the_Red

I sold all but 100 shares of ASTS. Ill rebuy if it goes down a bunch again.

OREG_Keith

I don’t do options. Shares only and my portfolio finished up almost 100% last year and this week it was up 40%. I buy low and hold through dips. When there is a major dip I add to my position. I sell on big unexpected gains like ASTS I bought at $25 PS on a long hold. It rose so high so fast that I sold half of that at $100 PS and then started adding to my position once it dipped below $60 PS and kept adding on every major dip on the ride back up to $100 PS, which it hit again today. I did something very similar with ONDS and I’ve already made a ton of money on it. In fact, I bought the dip right before clothes on ONDS today.

MasterpieceLiving738

ASTS? They don’t do the same things at all. I’m not invested in either, but just because they are both involved in space doesn’t mean they’re the same thing.

Fritzkreig

It was mostly what I thought was a clever pun, as ASTS stock price is rising, and rockets also go up!

Fritzkreig

ASTS probably goes up more!

No-Albatross-781

!banner ASTS $115 2w

Local-Banana6514

Cashed out a 30% swing trade gain on ASTS today but should I have held

Joshiie12

It settled in for me particularly with ASTS. If your conviction is strong about a company's fundamentals and decision making, and you're *sure* it'll come back around, as long as you never sell red, you can't lose. Sure, we'll all pick actual losers here and there, but if the company is actually making progress and developing things with results, it'll always come back. Just can't get caught up in pump & dumps and FOMO. Stay the course, like you said.

BiggieMoe01

Well played on both! Sadly missed the ONDS boat. However sitting on 200 ASTS shares with a $70 average. Holding it until Jan 2027 at least. Will sell covered calls once it hits $140

Satorius96

I am going to be so salty if ASTS dumps monday after touching $100 again

hework

I found ASTS on seeking alpha but landed here eventually.

sevseg_decoder

The bulk of my gains this year are NVDA, GOOG, SOFI and ASTS… When I started what really got me ahead the most to begin with was NVDA. It split twice before I sold.

BiggieMoe01

ASTS is a money glitch and will keep printing

BigOleLeaps

Wanted to bet against ASTS but then remember I’m not a rookie and IV crush will skullfuck you all the way to Sunday

Crazy-Being7729

Sold those ASTS calls after the dip earlier this week, y’all are welcome

Dangerous_Pie_3338

If ASTS closes over $100 I’ll take a shit

Diamondhands4dagainz

KTOS +50% YTD, ASTS +35% YTD, ONDS +38% YTD, RKLB +20% YTD, KRKB +22% YTD, MU +17% YTD, INTC +20% YTD, OKLO +43% YTD, SNDK +56% YTD, SK HYNIX +14% YTD This is absolutely fkn insanity

negitaro

I got ASTS at $3 for 13 shares only cus I had change to spare 😅

Degen-Tingles

A little head and shoulder afternoon for ASTS… will she dump?

Round_Hat_2966

I am a bit more scared of cyclicality affecting launch providers. ASTS is basically cell towers in LEO. They will trade at inflated multiples in a space bubble, but the profitability of the core business (once it is established) shouldn’t be as directly impacted by space capex from big tech, government, etc. I expect ASTS to have a more inherently stable business model.

NotEasyOne_Regard

Bro, $ASTS and $RKLB.

Paul_Robert_

Oh maaaan, I feel your pain, had a similar situation with $ASTS 😅 A lot can happen in 8 months, hopefully you'll be able to exit with a profit soon 🫡

makeammends

In my own semi-irrational moves today, finally said byebye to HIMS (in 16, out at 32 better late than never). Said hello to RDW added to the space names: RKLB (in early, up more %%% than I can count), ASTS (similar, but smaller stake), LUNR (recent addition). Space is the place.

Ruby_Rhods_Hair

ASTS, at $77, is valued at 28 billion, which is 100x 2026 sales. I'll let you make the smart decision here.

WillNeighbor

i like both ASTS and RKLB. overvalued, sure but also not where they could be. my view is would i buy them today? probably not, but also, fast forward 5 years and they’re both more valuable than today… so my logic doesn’t make sense, but only if i’m really looking for a great/better entry. otherwise if im a patient investor, i can just buy and not worry about the day to day… just keep reaffirming how in 5 years these companies will probably be cooking at at least 100B MC A

Get_dat_money

LUNR going green today after that drop this morning was money in the bank for me- easiest calls i ever bought. this week on ASTS and LUNR analyst news. Do RKLB on Monday for me plz?

Standard-Top-5942

ASTS has super bullish techs right now. This bitch won't die.

DorianSoundscapes

I just bought some weekly puts for the inevitable drawback then I will load up on June calls. Be scalping the volatility on RKLB and ASTS for a few months and am up 78% for the last month in my retard gambling IRA. 🤷🏻

Squidchip

Congratulations! I'm a noobie in trading (began this year) other than just letting 401k decide. Would you and experienced traders be able to share how you were able to find/know that ASTS and other stock will grow big? I'm pouring over finance news but I can't seem to pinpoint what is real and what is hype yet :S

WhoreIn_Buffet

Very nice. I was in ASTS at about 20 cb. Sold covered calls at 90 that expire today itm. Gonna let the shares get called and roll the profit into PL. I love space!

Dudebobski

ASTS spac team has another spac w/ ticker NPAC and NPACW for warrants. Do you think they can merge with a similar spac to ASTS, RKLB ,IONQ ,or RDW? Or will they go with a food company like Liquid Death, Athletic Brewing, Chobani, Raising Cane’s, Impossible Foods, Olipop, Spindrift, or Kind Snacks? Since their team looks kind of food industry based (not to say they’ll go with a ASTS-like company). Team: https://www.newprovidencecorp.com/people

xEppyx

Ugh, wish I bought more ASTS calls earlier this week. +100% already. To dump or not to dump, does the greed consume me?

redtitbandit

i'm at 900 option positions and 10K shares. every dollar ASTS moves is $100K in my pocket. got in at \~$54

Yaboyhamz

Same, made 5x my income on ASTS. Only have a bit more than 2k in shares left. Been playing short term leaps whenever it dips under $70 for past few months and selling CC when it hits over $90. In trying my best to hold on to my last shares because in 5-10 years she’ll be $$$$ If she dips sub $70 might just margin call some 700 day leaps like $150 strike

Salt-Bedroom-7529

I dont want him to do anything its his money, his life, his decisions Im just stating my opinion. I am % wise even higher than him, though i invested less but still wont sell untill ASTS starts providing the service, it will be 1000$ stock and it will get splits so its a wait game. I do understand his sale, I mean he can buy back on next drop anyway

AdLeather8371

Always think that RKLB and ASTS are overpriced and are going down and it never happens, but also cant buy it at ATH... fml

Scotia Bank downgrades ASTS ASTS - Hold my beer

Gather round, gather round, kids: Here’s how you make money…. buy RKLB + ASTS shares and then DO NOTHING for year!  Guaranteed then whatever stupid option plays the bots here keep pumping

ASTS really broke the sell wall huh

OkResponsibility2470

I’ll be shocked if ASTS holds 100 going into next week tbh

chainer3000

I sold all my leaps between 95-100. This price makes no sense. Been in and out of ASTS since 6$ One bad macro event and you’ll see what just happened in November happen again, it’s just a matter of time. I’ll jump back in then

DorianSoundscapes

Bruh. My condolences. Have you considered buying ASTS and making some money?

Overall_Option_8883

Glad I'm not a 🐻. ASTS has tslr strength 

WhoDatis0803

The crazy part is ASTS is literally just getting started

Academic_Lock_1699

Sold RDDT & ASTS too early 🤦

BagPitt

Couldn't agree more. I can easily see ASTS going much higher especially as revenue starts kicking in but I just couldn't hold it anymore. This is more money I have seen (or made) in my entire lifetime

ASTS short squeeze

Ok_Wealth_3433

Will ASTS ever stop cause what the actual fuck

isolated-cat

space bros flying high today. wtf is going on with ASTS

Throw_Away_TrdJrnl

Oh me too man. Pretty much let my emotions rule my trading and also I don't size correctly. Bought ASTS last year at 55 bucks. Sold like a month later at 41 because of the spooky red color. Then a month later it goes to 100 bucks. Shiiiiiit I am TERRIBLE at this. At least I've recognized that I'm bad at this and refuse to add any money into my account. I'm either going to learn my lesson one day or drive the account to 0 and be done 🤣

Get_dat_money

remember when Scotiabank downgraded ASTS- bet you wish you bought calls

DrestinBlack

I wish I could get one, been into ASTS since $3

SalemKinkTrials

I made this flair when ASTS was like $25 now it’s $100 🍑

dbd209

Had a little over 1,300 shares of ASTS, which I ended up selling this morning at $97.43. I was able to make some solid gains, but left at least an extra 4.5k on the table with where the stock is at right now. I say this to ask, that a big part of my issue still remains the same; when to take gains, and when to let things ride? I feel like I do a good job of buying dips, knowing when to go in and when to slowly DCA, however, when it comes to selling, I feel like I always react passively. I panic sold at 97 because I didn't wanna round trip my gains, but at the same time, I hate always leaving so much meat on the bone when I sell early.

KissMyRichard

ASTS is bout ta bust loose!

ASTS is insane.

poorat8686

If it makes you feel better I sold 01/09 ASTS calls today for half they’re worth now, and 01/09 OKLO calls yesterday for half what they’re worth now too so, we’re both retarded

dalooooongway

i know i should sell ASTS but my greed is powerful

OkResponsibility2470

Thoughts on how long until the inevitable ASTS dump? Sorely tempted to sell CCs at 100 here but with how volatile it is, seems like a bad call

VotedOut

Unpopular Opinion here, but I am highly suspicious of ASTS. ASTS trades at $36B market cap now and has $0 top-line revenue. The company has [only 578 employees](https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/asts/employees/) \-- that's less than a small local school. There's an overly suspicious amount of people on stock subs trying to promote the stock of a company with just 578 employees and still $0 revenues. What's to say that the whole future narrative isn't just a sham that never delivers on anything? How does the company expect to do what investors are claiming with just 578 employees? It reminds me of the SPCE (Virgin Galactic) pump & dumps in 2020-2021.

What’s the path to profitability for ASTS or is it just another cash burner?
