Why Joby Aviation Stock Just Popped 12%

Shares of topsy-turvy air taxi stock and former special purpose acquisition company play Joby Aviation (NYSE: JOBY) took flight in Thursday-morning trading, rising 12.3% through 10:50 a.m. EDT. You can thank Morgan Stanley for that. In a note out this morning, investment banker Morgan Stanley initiated coverage of Joby stock with an overweight rating (which doesn't sound like it, but is actually a compliment) and a $16 price target.
