Vodafone Group

Vodafone $VOD (+0,3%) has raised prices for fixed-line internet by €5 per month in 2023, affecting around 10 million current contracts. However, this decision has caused quite a stir. Consumer advocates see the increase as unlawful and have filed a lawsuit with the Hamm Higher Regional Court on behalf of the Federation of German Consumer Organizations (VZBV). Ramona Pop, a member of the VZBV board, emphasizes that many customers would not go to court themselves to reclaim these 5 euros. This is why the class action lawsuit is so important: it is intended to help the customers affected to get back the amounts they have paid unlawfully if the lawsuit is successful. The association is demanding that Vodafone refund the price difference to all affected users. This shows how important it is to stand up for consumer rights and hold companies accountable.

In the USA, Volkswagen had $VOW3 (+2,07%) had less luck with its legal dispute regarding data protection. Although the company won a partial victory in a lawsuit against the data protection reprimand by the Data Protection Commissioner of Lower Saxony, the central reprimand remains in place. This could result in VW receiving a substantial fine. Interestingly, it was a signature error by the public prosecutor that may have saved the company millions of euros. Although the judgment is not yet final, VW has the option of lodging an appeal with the Higher Administrative Court. However, the effects on the fine seem certain in the current situation, as the reprimand is still valid. This case shows once again how important correct procedures are in a legal context and how easily companies can profit from formal errors.

$ASTS has partnered with Rakuten and Vodafone since 2020. They are not ‚major new partnerships‘…

First space-based video call made in Europe with unmodified smartphones

$ASTS (+18,4%) and its partners (in the video $VOD (+0,3%) ) are currently in the test phase of their 5 BlueBird satellites, which were launched last year. Further satellites are to follow in 2025 and 2026 to ultimately enable global 5G for unmodified smartphones.

$ASTS (+18,4%) has also recently become tradable in Germany. Previously, the share was only listed on the Nasdaq.

Personally, I don't expect the share price to explode this year, as the schedule for rocket launches this year is still quite thin. However, I am still invested because I don't have a crystal ball and therefore have no idea when the share price will move upwards and I definitely want to be involved.

@Kundenservice Since yesterday there have been live price updates here in the app at $ASTS, but it's behaving a bit strangely. First my portfolio is loaded and then, about 10 seconds later, the value of ASTS is added. (Since the share is very volatile, this is expressed in a strong vertical deflection at the current point of the graph).
There is also no daily chart for the $ASTS value directly.
I don't know whether this will go away by itself after a few days or whether you have to adjust something because the stock is now apparently available from your local data provider.
