Expansion plan momentum muted by sustained market skepticism

US Mobile announced plans to launch direct-to-cell satellite coverage on its Verizon-based Warp network in late 2026, powered by AST SpaceMobile's BlueBird satellites. Production progress continued, with BlueBird 14 completed and BlueBirds 15 and 16 nearing completion, and the company targeting up to six satellites assembled monthly to exceed 100 satellites globally in the long term. The recent deployment of several BlueBird satellites and ongoing collaboration with Verizon were reported, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees sustained bearish pressure on AST SpaceMobile. Technicals remain weak, with the price deeply below all major moving averages and momentum skewed to the downside. Recent operational achievements, including satellite launches and new partnerships, have not reversed market sentiment. Selling dominates intraday action and oversold readings fail to attract meaningful bids. "Despite company milestones, I remain cautious as the technical landscape points to further downside risk for ASTS."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, takes a constructive view of AST SpaceMobile’s recent developments. He believes the partnership with US Mobile and ongoing BlueBird satellite progress highlight strong business momentum and growing industry adoption. The company’s ability to scale production points to fundamental resilience. Karapetjanc sees the current pullback as a setup for long-term positioning once technical resistance is cleared. "I expect the stock to benefit from expanding satellite coverage and remain optimistic about further growth in the coming quarters."

Jainam Mehta, market strategist, notes ASTS is stuck in a well-defined range after the recent decline. He points out oversold technical signals and elevated volatility may set the stage for a tactical rebound if resistance at $56.5 is broken. However, Mehta remains scenario-focused, watching closely for confirmation before considering a trade. "If the range resolves upward, I would consider a tactical entry above $56.5, but I stay neutral until a clear signal emerges."

Downtrend confirmed as technical signals highlight oversold weakness

AST SpaceMobile is trading below its 20-, 50-, and 200-day moving averages ($66.83, $67.48, and $81.41), confirming sustained bearish pressure across all timeframes. The MA-50 remains under the MA-200, reflecting a dominant downtrend. Immediate focus is on the resistance at $56.5 and support at $53.67, with the Ichimoku Kijun at $63.94 acting as a further resistance zone. Momentum signals are negative: MACD remains a sell, ADX at 11.47 signals a weak trend, RSI is 40.86 and also favors a sell stance, and both CCI and Stochastic RSI indicate deep oversold conditions. Intraday action is dominated by sellers according to Bull/Bear Power at -3.84, and the Awesome Oscillator also reinforces the downside. The stock remains near session lows with elevated volatility.

Earlier, analysts noted that AST SpaceMobile was under sustained downside momentum despite operational developments and strategic partnerships. The current article strengthens this bearish case with continuing negative technical signals and deep oversold conditions, highlighting $53.67 as a key support level that, if breached, could accelerate further declines.
