Here's Why Joby Aviation Stock Flew Higher in July
Key Points Joby Aviation is leading the race to Federal Aviation Administration certification. The company's vertically integrated business model means that expanding its manufacturing capacity is even more critical to investors. Joby has the backing of key companies that will enhance its prospects of offering its air taxi services while running its fleet. 10 stocks we like better than Joby Aviation › Shares in electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) company Joby Aviation (NYSE: JOBY) soared by 57.9% in July, according to data provided by S&P Global Market Intelligence. The move came largely after the news broke that Joby announced the expansion of its manufacturing site in California and, in doing so, doubled its aircraft production capacity. In addition, Joby expanded a facility in Ohio that will manufacture and test components. It's an important development for two main reasons. Joby Aviation expands manufacturing capacity First, it's a sign of growing confidence in its ongoing certification process. The latest news on that front came from the recent announcement that Joby is "preparing for final assembly of its first conforming aircraft intended for Type Inspection Authorization (TIA) flight tests" with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Management expects to complete its first TIA flight this year as it moves toward final certification. Second, the news is particularly important for the company because of its vertical integration strategy. In this case, "vertical" means management is primarily designing and manufacturing its eVTOL components in-house. This differentiates it from eVTOL competitors like Archer Aviation or Vertical Aerospace, which have technology partners. As such, Archer and Vertical Aerospace both believe their business models should result in a quicker certification process and with less risk attached. However, it seems Joby is leading the field in terms of FAA certification, and expanding its manufacturing capacity helps de-risk the stock from one of investors' most significant fears: the possibility that its vertically integrated model will create manufacturing issues for a young company. Toyota's and Uber's involvement is key While Joby has a vertically integrated model, it also has investment from and a manufacturing alliance with Toyota. The Japanese car company has invested $894 million in Joby, and Toyota is working with Joby to help optimize its manufacturing processes. In addition, Uber has invested $125 million in Joby so far, with the eVTOL company acquiring Uber Elevate. This is a key part of Joby's overall business model, which involves owning and operating its own fleet of aircraft and offering transportation services (air taxis) itself rather than selling aircraft to other operators. Moreover, Delta Air Lines is on track to invest $200 million in Joby, with the intent to deliver a service to Delta customers traveling to and from airports. Joby's plans are ambitious, but they are perfectly feasible. The partnerships with Toyota, Uber, and Delta make sense, and Joby's management is de-risking the stock with its capacity expansion and progress toward certification.

Why Clean Energy Fuels Stock Raced Nearly 13% Higher Today
Key Points The energy company delivered better-than-expected numbers in its latest earnings release. It beat on both the top and bottom lines with second-quarter results. 10 stocks we like better than Clean Energy Fuels › Clean Energy Fuels (NASDAQ: CLNE), a company that sells renewable natural gas (RNG) as a fuel for automobiles, scored a clean win on the stock exchange Friday. Its shares zoomed almost 13% higher after it unveiled its latest set of quarterly results, which, among other things, featured a double beat on analyst estimates. With that performance, it crushed the 0.8% increase of the S&P 500 index. Confidence renewed after results published Clean Energy Fuels' second quarter saw the company post revenue of $102.6 million, which was nearly 5% higher on a year-over-year basis. Non-GAAP (adjusted) net income fell to $337,000, shaking out to less than $0.01 per share. Despite the bottom-line decline, analysts were expecting notably worse results. On average, they were modeling slightly over $94 million for revenue and a net loss of $0.06 per share. In its earnings release, Clean Energy Fuels CEO Andrew Littlefair said, "RNG remains the most immediate and cost-effective clean transportation fuel, as we see continued strong demand reflected in our solid second quarter results." Littlefair also pointed out that the government's recently passed "big, beautiful bill" supports the RNG market. Its extension of the clean fuel production tax credit should be a boon for RNG producers and suppliers. Powering big fleets Clean Energy Fuels is doing quite well in its rather limited niche, and during the quarter, it executed new supply arrangements with a number of municipal transit fleets, including LA Metro in Los Angeles. Such customers tend to be long-term and reliable, so it'll be worthwhile for investors to keep an eye on how the segment continues to develop for the company.
