 This was on the NYSE:VOD news feed 3/3/25'Vodafone and AST SpaceMobile Sign Agreement to Create European Direct-To-Device Satellite Service ProviderSource: Business WireVodafone Group Plc (Vodafone) (LSE: VOD), a leading European and African telecommunications company, and AST SpaceMobile Inc. ("AST SpaceMobile") (NASDAQ: ASTS), the company building the first and only space-based cellular broadband network accessible directly by everyday smartphones, designed for both commercial and government application, have signed an agreement to create a jointly-owned European satellite service business ("SatCo") to serve mobile network operators (MNOs) in all European markets.SatCo will seek to provide 100% geographic coverage in every part of Europe to give consumers and businesses access to secure space-based cellular broadband connectivity via their MNO.The new venture will exclusively distribute AST SpaceMobile's satellite services to European MNOs under a single turnkey arrangement. This will be underpinned by a full network management and network operations centre capability, based in Europe, drawing on Vodafone's advanced engineering expertise. SatCo will build and run a network of ground stations to provide backhaul services from these MNOs across Europe to the satellite network in low Earth orbit.SatCo's solution will fully support European digital sovereignty. AST SpaceMobile's satellites already operate as remote radio heads where the core network capability remains with the MNO. SatCo builds on this by providing fully sovereign backhaul capabilities under Vodafone co-ownership, with European headquarters and management.' |
Nothing like a good old yarn about investing to get the grandkids excited |
Expecting a RR type rise in the near term as Elon and others look on with envy as Vod achieve industry leading capability. |
I think you're witnessing the start of the 10 year advance. Remember these times and tell your grandkids about them one day. |
This dog is strong relatively |
Salver2/4380: 'God there’s a lot of amateur trading analysis (Voodoo rubbish ) spouted on this board -I wish someone’s gap was filled!'
You mean Technical Analysis, perhaps?
Either way I'll still take pointers from TA and they have long proved their utitity to me over the years. |
A hold above 70p is meaningless as we have just found out . It will do whatever it wants . The only thing you can say with certainty is that if it falls to 65p there's a good chance it will get to 70p lol |
God there’s a lot of amateur trading analysis (Voodoo rubbish ) spouted on this board -I wish someone’s gap was filled! |
Unbelievable, almost everything in the green and this lump of lard is in the red, WTAF ? |
finish above 70p will be good...or higher!! |
The Nov 11th gap down does look like it is about to get filled.. :o) |
We have a breakout 72p fills the gap |
Stay above 70.02p at close, please |

LLB I hope you are right sir. |
1st close over 70 pence for a long time, buybacks in progress, debt reducing from asset sales and the reduced dividend, this should be the start of the turnaround..
Germany elections could open up opportunity through legislation..? they are in a muddle right now but what ever the outcome they need telecoms and providers..
See what we get but good to see the reversal from 65 pence upward recently, from a TA a treble bottom too so it should have bounced off it.. |
Forget 80p, this is the start of the whooosh. Expecting 145p as a first target. |
132m traded in the auction |
Boom! Hmmm onward to 80p then .....lol. |
Not so long ago this was in lock step with BT on the way down and with each and every bump on the way. About time it grabbed on to the coat-tails and started a similar recovery. Just getting through that 70p barrier is proving to be more difficult every time it approaches it. |
And then NY opens |
And then NY opens |
And then NY opens |
70 whole English pence at last .. :o) |
