If The Market Crashes, This Is The 1 Space Stock I Can't Wait To Buy
Yahoo Finance ·
With the S&P 500 trading at a multi-year high of 29 times earnings, possible interest rate hikes on the horizon, and unresolved military conflicts driving oil prices higher, it seems like it's only a matter of time before the market crashes. When that happens, many of the priciest growth stocks will go on sale and become compelling purchases for patient investors. One of those stocks is AST SpaceMobile ( ASTS +0.11% ) , a producer of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites that was overshadowed by SpaceX 's ( SPCX 0.15% ) historic IPO . Let's see why AST SpaceMobile is one of the only space stocks I'd buy in the next market crash. AST and SpaceX's Starlink both produce LEO satellites for internet communications. However, AST mainly helps telecom giants like AT&T and Verizon extend their broadband networks to rural areas that their terrestrial networks can't reach. Starlink provides its own first-party satellite internet service. AST's satellites are also twice the size of Starlink's largest satellites, making them the largest communication arrays ever deployed into orbit. AST also processes its data on the ground using Radio Access Network (RAN) software, while Starlink processes it in its satellites. AST can upgrade its ground infrastructure to new wireless technologies (such as 6G), but Starlink must completely replace its satellites with each upgrade.

Amidst this potential crash, growth stock valuation adjustments could offer patient investors a buy-the-dip opportunity for quality aerospace stocks. Notably, AST SpaceMobile, partnering with telecom giants like AT&T and Verizon, holds differentiated competitiveness in the low-Earth orbit satellite communications market.
