Every AST SpaceMobile Investor Should Keep an Eye on This Number

AST SpaceMobile plans on building a space-based broadband cellular network. Investors should monitor the company's progress toward deploying satellites. Investing in AST involves notable risks since it's not generating substantial revenue. 10 stocks we like better than AST SpaceMobile › There's no doubt that investors often flock to the numbers at the top and the bottom of income statements when investigating companies. But it's often critical for investors to monitor other figures as well in order to gain insight. Take, for example, AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS), which is working to build a space-based broadband cellular network. In fact, investors would be well advised to pay close attention to a number not even found in the company's financial statements. Striving to provide global customers with unique broadband service, AST SpaceMobile is developing what it calls the "first and only space-based cellular broadband network." In order to develop this network, management projects it will deploy more than 60 satellites in 2025 and 2026 -- a feat that will provide continuous coverage to the company's key markets: the United States, Europe, and Japan, to name a few. Since AST SpaceMobile's success depends on developing this constellation of satellites, investors should be acutely focused on commentary from the company confirming that it's on pace to achieve this deployment. Another figure that investors can gauge for insight to the company's progress is the rate at which it's manufacturing satellites. Management forecasts achieving a production rate of six satellites monthly in the fourth quarter of 2025. Should the company fail to achieve this cadence, it may portend a failure to achieve the target of deploying 60 satellites by the end of 2026. Because it's still the early innings for AST SpaceMobile's development, investors won't gain as much insight into the company's operations combing through the income statement in the way they would for a more well-established company. Therefore, space investors will want to consult other metrics such as the number of satellites deployed and the rate at which satellites are manufactured. As a young company that's not generating substantial and consistent revenue, AST SpaceMobile should only attract investors who aren't risk averse. For those comfortable with the risks, though, AST SpaceMobile is certainly worth watching closely.

BMO hikes S&P 500 target to 6,700 with benchmark on the cusp of a record high

The S & P 500 is close to its all-time high, and BMO thinks there are more gains to be made above that February level. Strategist Brian Belski hiked his S & P 500 year-end target to 6,700 — his original 2025 forecast — from 6,100. The new forecast signals upside of 10% from Tuesday's close. Belski highlighted two reasons for the target increase: "Markets are transitioning TO 'show me' FROM 'scare me'. We believe performance is broadening, reactions from daily rhetoric are calming, and actual corporate guidance will increase coming out of the 2Q earnings reporting period." "Facts over feelings WIN AGAIN. … The death of 'American Exceptionalism' was widely exaggerated and too vehemently applauded to hold any merit or duration … That is why the relative performance of other markets that so many investors have been chasing and applauding for emotional reasons [is] already beginning to wane." .SPX YTD mountain S & P 500 year to date The change came as stocks rallied Tuesday following a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, easing tensions in the Middle East. Week to date, the S & P 500 is up 2% and sits less than 1% below its record high set in February. Belski's target is now the highest among those included in the CNBC Market Strategist Survey . Technology is BMO's favorite sector going forward, with the firm recommending a 33% allocation to the space. Indeed, tech has been a leader in the market's rebound from the tariff scare. Since April 2, the day President Trump announced higher tariffs, the sector is up 18%. Already, the tech-heavy Nasdaq-100 index made a fresh all-time high on Tuesday. Others on the Street echo Belski's market enthusiasm. "In my view, we hit new highs sooner rather than later," Mark Gibbens, founder and CIO of Gibbens Capital Management, told me during a phone call. "All things considered, assuming the economy still grows at a 2% clip, the consumer remains healthy, … there's a lot to look forward to in the back half of the year." On Tuesday, JPMorgan's trading desk told clients that it's "time to get bulled up again."
