# Why AST SpaceMobile Stock Is Skyrocketing This Week

> Shares of AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) surged 33.9% this week, driven by speculation of a potential partnership with Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin after a board member's social media post. The stock's rise coincided with gains in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100. Additionally, a public dispute between Elon Musk and Donald Trump may create opportunities for AST SpaceMobile. While these developments suggest potential growth, investors should be cautious due to the company's high-risk profile and the need to justify its valuation.

Shares of **AST SpaceMobile** (ASTS 0.55%) are moving higher this week, up 33.9% as of 2 p.m. ET from last Friday's close. The gain comes as the **S&P 500** gained 1.5% and the **Nasdaq-100** gained 2.2%.

Earlier in the week, a board member posted a picture to social media that fueled speculation of a possible partnership with Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin. The stock also received a boost after yesterday's public spat between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

## A possible partnership

After Bezos visited the company's Texas headquarters, AST board member Adriana Cisneros posted a picture of Bezos, AST CEO Abel Avellan, and herself to Instagram with the caption, "Amazing things are happening at AST & Science + Blue Origin."

This fueled speculation that Blue Origin, Bezos' space exploration company, could be looking to create a closer relationship with AST. The company already has a contract with AST to launch 45 satellites, but a more formal partnership would be a game changer for AST SpaceMobile.

## Musk and Trump fall out

Elon Musk and President Donald Trump escalated a public spat yesterday. What began when Musk took to X to criticize Trump's flagship "Big, Beautiful Bill" quickly turned personal and included Trump threatening to cancel contracts with Musk's SpaceX. If this were to happen, it could leave the door open for AST SpaceMobile to, at least partially, fill the void.

This is all speculation; nothing is concrete. That being said, both of these possibilities represent a huge upside for AST. For investors with a high risk appetite, AST can be a solid pick. However, be aware that there is a significant risk. The company has a long way to go to justify its valuation.
