    AST SpaceMobile vs. Space Exploration Technologies: Which Telecom Stock Is a Better Buy in 2026?

    AST SpaceMobile and SpaceX compete in satellite connectivity but with different business models. AST SpaceMobile focuses on direct-to-device smartphone connectivity with partnerships from major telecom operators, while SpaceX leverages reusable rockets to scale its Starlink broadband service. Despite SpaceX's larger revenue base ($18.7B vs $70.9M) and established business, the article recommends AST SpaceMobile for 2026 due to strong telecom backing and clearer near-term profitability path, though both companies face significant cash burn and execution risks.

    AST Spacemobile Just Moved Its Commercial Launch Target to 2027. Is That Bad News for Its Stock?

    AST SpaceMobile pushed back its target of deploying 45 satellites from late 2026 to early 2027, disappointing investors and contributing to a stock decline from a record high of $133.09 to the low $60s. Despite the delay caused by the loss of BlueBird 7 in April, the company maintains strong fundamentals including partnerships with 60+ carriers, a $1.3 billion backlog, and analyst projections showing revenue growth from $71 million in 2025 to $1.73 billion by 2028.

    Why Is AST SpaceMobile Stock Up 13% Today?

    AST SpaceMobile stock surged 13% on September 2, 2026, after Berenberg initiated coverage with a Buy rating and set a $92 price target, implying 51% upside. The bank believes AST can build a profitable satellite network using a direct-to-device model complementary to terrestrial carriers like Verizon and AT&T. However, the company faces significant execution risk with a $230.9 million net loss last quarter, despite $31.5 million in revenue, and carries $3 billion in long-term debt against $2.7 billion in cash.

    AT&T Benefits From Margin Expansion: Can the Trend Last?

    AT&T's Q2 results show improved profitability with adjusted EBITDA margin expanding to 39.1% and operating income rising 8.3% year-over-year. The company is on track to achieve $4 billion in annual cost savings by 2028 through network modernization and legacy copper network shutdown. Wireless gains, fiber growth, and service bundling are driving customer growth, while competitors Verizon and T-Mobile also report resilient performance despite market challenges.
