Highlights

  • Amazon is negotiating to acquire Globalstar, aiming to accelerate its Leo satellite internet ambitions amid Apple's complex 20% stake.
  • Any potential deal may require Amazon to address Apple's $1.5 billion investment or establish a joint venture structure.
  • Despite recent intraday weakness, technical signals remain bullish with a projected $69.90–$79.70 range and a high probability of further price gains.

Deal uncertainty as Apple’s stake complicates Amazon negotiations

Reports emerged that Amazon is in talks to acquire Globalstar, with negotiations ongoing and one key complexity arising from Apple Inc.'s 20% stake, which was acquired in 2024 through a $1.5 billion investment supporting the satellite network for Apple's Emergency SOS feature. For Amazon, the deal is intended to advance its Amazon Leo low-Earth-orbit satellite internet project, although any agreement could require either the acquisition of Apple's holding or the creation of a joint venture involving the two companies. Globalstar's upcoming earnings report on May 7 is noted as the next major scheduled event, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Bullish momentum diverges from volatile intraday bearish move

Momentum for GSAT remains positive, with the MACD signaling Buy and the ADX on the daily chart at a neutral level, indicating ambiguous trend strength. The RSI is near overbought at 68.80, joined by both the CCI and Stoch RSI in overbought territory, while BBP also signals buyer dominance. The Awesome Oscillator remains neutral. However, intraday action has weakened; after a small opening gap, the price slipped 6.79% and is trading near today’s low in a wide, volatile range. This negative short-term price move contrasts with the ongoing bullish momentum from the key indicators, presenting a divergence and suggesting pressure following the open.

Sideways trading anticipated as breakouts hinge on support levels

In the next five trading days, GSAT is expected to move within a range of $69.90 to $79.70, based on its typical volatility band relative to current levels. The probability of a price increase is estimated to be greater than 80%, with a significant decline deemed less likely. The baseline scenario anticipates continued sideways consolidation between the defined support and resistance levels. Should a bullish breakout occur, GSAT could rise above resistance near $76.90 and explore higher targets, while a failure to maintain support at the Ichimoku Kijun level of $65.78 may trigger deeper pullbacks towards the lower end of the projected weekly range.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees GSAT holding above key technical levels, but notes an immediate risk from recent selling pressure after Amazon acquisition rumors. He points to bullish momentum indicators, though overbought readings and a sharp intraday drop signal caution. The analyst remains mindful of upcoming earnings and possible volatility around the Apple stake issue. "My base case is continued range trading between $69.90 and $79.70, but any loss of support at $65.78 would be a clear warning sign for bulls."

Previously, analysts highlighted Globalstar’s robust bullish momentum following acquisition speculation and upbeat corporate guidance. The current backdrop introduces a new layer of complexity with Amazon entering the fray and Apple’s stake at play, making the interaction of major tech players a key variable to monitor as traders watch for price stability above the Ichimoku Kijun level at $65.78.
