On July 21, AST SpaceMobile rose 5.6% in regular trading, trading at $61.515/share, with turnover of $197 million. The stock continued to recover from a sharp selloff earlier in the week triggered by dilution concerns.
On the news front, U.S.-listed space concept stocks rallied collectively, with SpaceX up over 5%, Virgin Galactic up over 4%, Rocket Lab and KULR Technology up over 2%, and Sidus Space and Redwire up over 5%, lifting the broader sector. The sector-wide momentum provided a tailwind for ASTS, which had previously fallen over 17% on July 16 after announcing a $1 billion convertible senior notes offering due 2034 that raised equity dilution concerns among existing shareholders. The stock has since been supported by analyst upgrades, including B. Riley upgrading to Buy with an $85 price target and Piper Sandler initiating coverage at Overweight with a $100 price target.
