ASTS is holding above its long-term 200-day MA ($72.31) but has slipped below the 50-day MA ($89.30), pointing to short-term weakness in an otherwise intact trend. An RSI of 55.2 sits in the neutral zone — momentum is neither stretched nor exhausted. The 1-year return of +282.0% compares to +35.1% for SPY (beat the market by 246.9%). The current 34.1% drawdown from the 52-week high reflects elevated risk for momentum-based strategies.
