Archer Aviation's stock fell 5.11% as it crossed below the 5-day SMA, reflecting investor concerns amid broader market gains.
The company has been selected by the Republic of Serbia as its preferred eVTOL air taxi partner, planning to showcase its Midnight aircraft at the 2027 Belgrade Expo. This partnership may involve Serbia purchasing up to 25 Midnight aircraft, contingent upon legal frameworks, indicating a strategic collaboration that could enhance Archer's market presence in Europe. Additionally, the collaboration aims to explore industrial development opportunities, including the production of rare earth magnets for batteries, which could further solidify Archer's competitive position in the electric aviation sector.
This partnership not only opens doors for Archer in the European market but also highlights the company's potential for technological innovation and market share growth in the rapidly evolving eVTOL landscape.

Reason
JPMorgan analyst Bill Peterson raised the firm's price target on Archer Aviation to $10 from $9 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm views the recent outperformance in the electric vertical take-off and landing sector as "irrational exuberance." While President Trump's executive order is a positive signal around the government's support for eVTOL, any further developments are unlikely to impact company earnings materially in the near-term, the analyst tells investors in a research note. JPMorgan thinks significant cash burn and further push-outs of revenue should be better reflected in shares today.
