Joby Aviation Inc. has seen its stock price decrease by 5.03% as it hits a 5-day low amid mixed market conditions, with the Nasdaq-100 slightly up and the S&P 500 down.
The company recently announced the acquisition of a 700,000-square-foot aerospace facility in Ohio for $61.5 million, aimed at doubling its aircraft production capacity to four electric air taxis per month by 2027. This strategic investment is expected to enhance Joby's manufacturing capabilities significantly and create thousands of jobs in the region, aligning with the U.S. Department of Transportation's advanced air mobility strategy.
This expansion reflects Joby's commitment to meeting the growing demand for urban air mobility and positions the company favorably in the competitive air taxi market. The new facility will support its transition to scaled manufacturing and is expected to accelerate technology development and market rollout.

According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for JOBY is 15.67 USD with a low forecast of 8.00 USD and a high forecast of 22.00 USD.
