    MNTS is up 26.1% on news that OQ Technology selected Momentus to fly a 5G narrowband IoT payload. The commercial deployment is a concrete customer-selection catalyst, but the announcement provides no disclosed financial terms or quantified revenue, making the move outsized relative to the information released.

    WHYA 26.1% gain and 21.43% five-minute surge is large for an unpriced payload-flight selection with no disclosed economics.
