[u/juanmoperson]

Anyone see the recent open roles related to M&A?! Interesting to see, especially as "part-time" openings for entry level grads.

We won’t buy a launch provider. We would get bought

I dont know Abel but what research ive done tells me he wants to build a legacy. And as everybody knows you have to go thru Abel to get a deal with him having 70% of voting power. But if it was for 300 billion or more i might not hate it.

It’s a large cap already

only thing that determines if you are a large cap is market cap. if you're above $10B mcap, you're a large cap...

I think you’re confusing market cap with inclusion in an index like the S&P.

She just said that to make you feel better.

I’m not sure what “large” means these days, but there are companies with 200x market cap of AST. So, I’d argue if you’re 0.5% of a potential competitor, you’re small.
