SpaceX shares stay above the IPO price through two insider unlocks, but Wednesday’s larger 700 million-share release may test investor demand.
Alphabet's P/E ratio of 17x appears undervalued compared to the S&P 500's 25x, but this is misleading due to one-time investment gains from SpaceX holdings artificially boosting earnings. Using alternative valuation metrics like operating profit and operating cash flow, Alphabet trades at average to above-average historical levels. The stock is a reasonable investment but not a compelling buying opportunity like it was in April 2025.

AST SpaceMobile and SpaceX compete in satellite connectivity but with different business models.

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.
