Is JOBY a buy? — what our data shows

⚡ TradesZ research ·Updated June 22, 2026 ·~2 min read ·Grounded in SEC data

Joby Aviation is building electric air taxis — small, quiet aircraft that take off and land vertically, designed to whisk passengers across cities the way an Uber does on the ground, just through the air.

What our data shows

Our data on Joby focuses on two things. On the smart-money side, over 600 big investment funds report holding it — and these aren't small players: Berkshire Hathaway, Tiger Global, and Coatue are all in. That kind of heavyweight lineup is a real signal that serious long-term money sees something here. On the theme side, we tag Joby under Space — which puts it in the same bucket as some of the most ambitious, future-facing bets in the market right now.

The takeaway

🟢Bullish lean

Joby has the kind of institutional backing that's hard to ignore, but this is still an early-stage, high-risk story — the key thing to watch is whether it can move from test flights to actual paying passengers.

But watch out
Smart-money signals lag the market (13F filings ~45 days) and never guarantee direction — always check the latest price and news yourself.
