Satellogic’s stock jumped about 22.5% in midday trading after Freedom Broker raised its recommendation from “hold” to “buy” and named a $10.40 price target. The analyst consensus now stands at four buy and one hold recommendation, with no sell ratings. The upgrade coincided with several company-specific catalysts, including a strategic cooperation with SynMax to develop AI-powered geodata products, the planned Merlin network with a first launch in October 2026, and a previously secured $18 million contract for continuous earth observation. A generally positive market backdrop for risk assets and rising defense budgets amplified the price move. » Mere på de.investing.com
