Joby Aviation just sent shockwaves through the eVTOL sector, cratering 16% in a single day and wiping out months of momentum. The "moonshot" phase has officially met a cold reality check following a missed FAA milestone and a sudden cooling of the Toyota partnership hype. With reports of a year-long delay to their commercial launch and eyebrow-raising insider selling, investors are asking: is this a temporary turbulence or a total system failure?

In this episode of Implied, we break down the FAA hurdles, the "sympathy drop" hitting competitors like Archer, and why Joby’s massive cash pile might be the only thing keeping this crash from becoming a catastrophe. Tune in to find out if this 16% dip is a painful reset or a warning to stay on the ground.
