Why a Trump-Musk Feud Could Mean Big Wins for AST SpaceMobile
[content-module:CompanyOverview|NASDAQ:ASTS] But a five-day return of more than 38% could scare many investors off unless there's reason to believe it could be part of a longer-term rally. The major boost to ASTS stock coincided with a highly publicized dispute between President Trump and Elon Musk. Though this feud is not the sole reason ASTS shares have skyrocketed in recent weeks, it is likely the primary driver of this performance. Ultimately, much of the rally aligning with the Trump-Musk back-and-forth probably stems from speculation. Nonetheless, it reveals some critical considerations investors should make about AST SpaceMobile and the rapidly evolving landscape of space companies. Feud Casts Doubt on Starlink AST SpaceMobile has experienced striking growth in recent months, surging by nearly 262% in the last year. However, a lingering thorn in its side is Starlink, the satellite internet service provider subsidiary of Musk's aerospace company SpaceX. Starlink's threats to AST became more significant after last November's election and Musk's close relationship with Trump. Indeed, reports indicated that Starlink began to expand its reach across federal government agencies early into the new Trump administration. Investors in AST and other publicly traded competitors may have worried that Musk's partnership with Trump could result in a monopoly for Starlink. With an estimated two-thirds of internet satellites in orbit being represented by Starlink after the election, this risk appeared likely only to grow. An issue for other satellite-based providers is that there is finite orbital capacity, meaning that once a certain number of satellites are in place at particular orbits, it is difficult or impossible for others to be added. Starlink's early advantage still has the potential to crowd out other companies from getting infrastructure in place, despite AST's moves to rapidly launch a growing number of its own satellites. However, the recent rift between Musk and Trump may have threatened Starlink's advantage. Trump responded to Musk's criticism of the former's signature proposed spending bill by floating the idea of canceling federal contracts held by Musk's companies, presumably including SpaceX. Musk also signaled his willingness to pull back from prior partnerships by suggesting that SpaceX would discontinue the Dragon spacecraft previously used for International Space Station missions, although he later retracted that statement. Potential Impact for AST SpaceMobile While investor response to the public dispute arising between Musk and Trump is speculative, the boost has so far been priced into ASTS shares. This adds to a series of positive developments for AST SpaceMobile, making it an increasingly attractive prospect for many buyers. [content-module:Forecast|NASDAQ:ASTS] The firm has made significant progress in building out its infrastructure, both in terms of satellite launches over recent months and in a series of lucrative, high-profile partnerships with existing telecommunications providers. The company has also recently secured important agreements with multiple government agencies, independently of any developments related to Musk and Starlink. A coordination agreement with the U.S. National Science Foundation and a $43-million new contract award in support of the United States Space Development Agency are prime examples. Another key development for AST is its shift toward commercialization. In its first-quarter earnings, the company said it expects to activate initial cellular broadband capabilities across multiple continents in the coming quarters thanks to partnerships with telecommunications companies in the United States, Europe, and Japan. This is forecast to lead to revenue opportunities of between $50 million and $75 million in the second half of 2025. AST Remains Attractive, Despite Starlink Uncertainty Investors will likely have a hard time predicting whether a blossoming feud between Trump and Musk continues to develop or fade away, and it will be even harder to decipher the potential impacts for Starlink and its competitors. However, AST is an attractive prospect on its own, regardless of these external factors, and is worth investor attention as it continues to expand its reach into a massive addressable market.

J.C. Flowers-backed Jefferson Capital eyes US$1.1B valuation in US IPO
The Nasdaq MarketSite in New York's Times Square, on May 16, 2012. (AP / Richard Drew) Private equity-backed Jefferson Capital said on Friday it was targeting a valuation of up to $1.1 billion in its U.S. initial public offering, as buyout firms look to take advantage of an improving new listings market. The company, and some of its investors, are seeking to raise up to $170 million by offering 10 million shares priced between $15 and $17 each, in what would be a rare flotation from the debt buyer industry. Mounting pressure on financial sponsors to return money to investors is encouraging buyout firms to list their portfolio companies. A winning streak for latest U.S. stock market entrants has also boosted the IPO market, particularly for tariff-insulated companies. Jefferson is offering 625,000 shares in the IPO, while selling stockholders, including J.C. Flowers, are putting up about 9.4 million shares. Founded in 2002, the Minneapolis, Minn.-based company purchases and manages charged-off and bankruptcy receivables with operations mainly in the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Latin America. It expanded into Canada with the acquisition of debt buyer Canaccede Financial Group in 2020. The company had net income of $128.9 million and revenue of $433.3 million in 2024, up 15.6 and 34.1 per cent, respectively, over the year earlier. Jefferson competes against PRA Group, Encore Capital Group, Resurgent Capital Services and Cavalry Portfolio Services in its core U.S. market. Investment firm J.C. Flowers had acquired Jefferson from buyout firm Flexpoint Ford in 2018. Jefferson will list on the Nasdaq under the symbol JCAP. Jefferies and Keefe, Bruyette & Woods are the lead underwriters for the offering. J.C. Flowers will own about 68.9 per cent of Jefferson after the offering.

Stanley Cup Final is becoming a showcase for the Oilers' Leon Draisaitl
Edmonton Oilers center Leon Draisaitl (29) takes control of the puck as Florida Panthers left wing Matthew Tkachuk (19) defends during the third period of Game 4 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup Final Thursday, June 12, 2025, in Sunrise, Fla. (AP Photo/Lynne Sladky) SUNRISE, FLA. — This is becoming Leon Draisaitl's Stanley Cup Final for the Edmonton Oilers. The standout German forward has scored the overtime goal in each of their two wins in the championship series rematch against the Florida Panthers, including Thursday night in Game 4 to pull Edmonton even. He's just the fifth player in NHL history and first in more than three decades to score twice in overtime in the final. 'He's as clutch as it gets,' goaltender Calvin Pickard said while sitting next to Draisaitl, who also had a pair of assists for a three-point performance. 'Always scores big goals at big times.' Draisaitl's four OT goals this playoffs are the most in a single postseason. John LeClair was the last to score two OT goals in a final for Montreal back in 1993, the last time a Canadian team won the Cup. Edmonton is two victories away from ending that drought thanks in large part to Draisaitl delivering when it matters most. 'It's incredible,' longtime teammate Ryan Nugent-Hopkins said. 'He's a horse out there for us — just always. It's just constant. It's consistent. We always can lean on him, and he always finds a way to get those big ones.' It's also nothing new. Among modern day players with at least 40 games of playoff experience, only Hall of Famers Wayne Gretzky and Mario Lemieux and teammate Connor McDavid have produced at a higher rate at the toughest time of the year to put the puck in the net. Draisaitl is averaging 1.49 points a game, and this series has been a showcase for him after being far less than 100% a year ago when he and the Oilers lost in the final. All the overtimes aren't bothering him. 'I feel great,' Draisaitl said. 'It's a long season, of course, for either side. We've played the same amount of minutes in this series. Fatigue kicks in at some point, but your adrenaline usually takes over and you just chip away at it, chip away at it.' Draisaitl addressed teammates after a 6-1 loss in Game 3 on Monday night, an uncharacteristic effort from the oldest team in the league. He was equally as unpleased after Edmonton fell behind 3-0 in the first period of Game 4. 'We were kind of lollygagging around a little bit,' Draisaitl said. 'It's certainly not the time to lollygag around, especially after getting spanked in Game 3.' The Oilers rallied to tie it, took the lead and then gave up the tying goal with 19.5 seconds left in regulation. That set the stage for Draisaitl to lead the way with his play, not just his words. 'He not only says what he's going to do, he backs it up with his play and his actions,' defenseman Darnell Nurse said. 'That's what makes him an amazing leader. We get into overtime, those tense moments and he has an ability to relax in them and just make plays. He gets rewarded for working hard.' Draisaitl accurately called his goal 'a fortunate bounce — no secret about it.' But there were enough plays throughout the night that he did not finish, so call it even. With the Panthers putting all their energy into stopping McDavid, Draisaitl is taking over just about any time he's on the ice. 'Leon, I don't know what could be said that really conveys what he brings to our team — not only the leadership but the play,' coach Kris Knoblauch said. 'He has just elevated his game in the toughest moments.' Draisaitl is making his case for the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP, the award McDavid won last year in a losing effort and refused to leave the locker room to accept. He pulled even with McDavid as the favorite on BetMGM Sportsbook after scoring in overtime and tying him for the postseason scoring lead with 32 points. Asked how Draisaitl seems to be so automatic in overtime and other clutch situations, teammate Vasily Podkolzin responded: 'Because he's one of the best players in the world. That's why.' ___ AP NHL playoffs: and Stephen Whyno, The Associated Press
