  • Should Investors Sell AST SpaceMobile to Buy SpaceX at Its IPO?
    June 8, 2026, 2:05 PM EDT. SpaceX, led by Elon Musk, is set for a historic $2 trillion IPO on June 12, possibly raising $75 billion. While many investors sell other stocks to fund SpaceX shares, AST SpaceMobile (ASTS), a satellite internet player, has gained over 30% this year. Both companies use Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites for internet but operate differently: AST connects mobile devices via telecom partners without selling its own internet, whereas SpaceX's Starlink provides direct satellite internet service. SpaceX is larger, profitable, and controls full production, reporting $18.7 billion revenue and $791 million net profit in 2025. AST is smaller, less profitable, with fewer satellites but larger arrays and a different business model. Both firms plan significant satellite expansion, serving distinct markets and offering growth potential, presenting investors with varied risk and opportunity profiles ahead of SpaceX's IPO.
