ASTS

doernotspeaker

Could you give me an example? Next two weeks are not looking that good. APLD and ASTS have much higher return/risk.

JRshoe1997

So the top 10 are RKLB, ASTS, AMZN, NBIS, GOOGL, RDDT, MU, SOFI, POET, and AMD. Good luck Reddit!

put_your_drinks_down

I found out about it on WSB then did a ton of research. The fact that ASTS has an incredible retail community really helped.

put_your_drinks_down

I did. $50k (all my savings, mid 30s) into CCIV/Lucid, then $200k from that into ASTS.

zuno_uknow

I’m all in on ASTS and found out about it back in 2022 here on WSB. People were pretty crazy about it back then but when it dropped to all time low of 2 bucks crickets then the rallies came. I’m a degenerate and was literally just putting my paychecks into this thing when it was 2, 3, 4, 5 dollars and kept buying when it was going up or down I didn’t give a damn. 12,000 shares $8.56 average cost and I’m not even close to even thinking about selling.

barfplanet

I jumped on ASTS and RKLB early on after reading about them on Reddit. Under $5 average for ASTS and under $10 on RKLB. Had the best year ever in 2024, and then blew it out of the water in 2025. Sold off a lot on the way up but still holding a fair amount. This success 100% has me feeling like there's gotta be another $3 winner floating out there, and I can just do this over again if I just read the right hot tip on reddit. This is 100% the fallacy that makes people like me go broke. Anyways, I'll still probably buy some random battery or drone stocks but this feels like the kind of euphoria that loses people a lot of money.

Lilbiguwu

I opened a Roth pretty late into the year. Just started with ASTS and RKLB.

Aevykin

ASTS...27B market cap for a company with basically 0 revenue... RKLB....37B market cap....for what is probably TTM revenue of 550-600M.... You might as well also try the casino, you may have better odds.

MT-Capital

Imagine thinking ASTS is stupid and high risk. This will be a 2 trillion dollar company in 10 years.

MaxEhrlich

Closed out 2025 up 26% with a total portfolio value of 212k. I made about 44k for the year and now I’m just sitting on positions with MU, NVDA, RDDT, LUNR, NVO, RKLB, ASTS, PATH and SHLD ETF. I’ve left plenty on the table this past year and now I think I might just stop trying to day/swing trade and hold onto what I got for 2026. Anyone with a less smooth brain than me can tell me if this is the way or nah?

SurgicalDude

You're comparing apples to oranges. Simply put you need an additional hardware to receive signals from starlink and their tech is inferior. ASTS is straight to non-modified equipment. Also check the link to look report the other commentor posted

East-Description-243

Are you worried about SpaceX and their 10,000 satellites trying to do the same thing as ASTS and their 6 satellites? Not trash talking… I think Musk is gonna eventually take the bulk of the TAM. 

HugeAd5056

Wow, what a helpful comment. Yeah, I have a LEAPS on INTC good for the latest available date, fairly deep ITM to minimize theta and maximize delta. I’m betting on INTC getting additional deals for their new fabrication business which puts them in direct competition with TSM. They are, however, under threat of lawsuit by TSM for collaborating with a former executive from TSM. LUNR is awesome and I just have shares on it. All of these are in highly competitive very niche spaces (except HOOD/SOFI which are more commonplace). I think wheeling the higher IV ones would be reasonable, especially ASTS, but I’m holding off on that for the time being. Have shares on most and LEAPS on the lower IV ones like INTC. I also sort stocks similar to your method sometimes. I appreciate all of your suggestions.

sushiguy6

I found ASTS at $5. Mine was very simple. I searched top 100 small cap stocks. I found an article with same title by Forbes. Found it interesting and started my DD. Down payment on new house and the rest is riding it out till 2030 or beyond.

Secret_Mix4532

If anything the IPO of SpaceX will bring more attention to ASTS and the space sector in general. Once more eyes are following SpaceX more people will notice all the launch contracts ASTS with them and look into the company more. A lot of people don’t even follow ASTS or know much about them, but this will all change.

TowerStreet1

What’s your target for ASTS by eoy 2026

Vast_Cricket

I bought both msft and intc during year 2000 at peak. It took me 16 years to recover my msft. If I still hoarded Intc paid 55-60 I will still be waiting the rest of this decade for a miracle. ASTS? Sold it in 4 years ago at 19 will not touch it with a 30 ft totem pole. I am out with these speculative stocks.

dieselbp67

You’re going to see a few players - spaceX and ASTS. You might see Amazon if they can get more spectrum. Likely see IRDM, GSAT taken out, VSAT spectrum might get sold and it’s A&D biz would be remainco

ffo_kcuf_og

I very much like the fact that the majority of the chatter on this tread is RKLB vs Spacex. ASTS takes a bit of effort to understand and is highly suspect in the eyes of those that haven’t done much research.

callsonreddit

The one great thing about ETFs is you don't deal with BS dilution I'm talking about you ASTS \-10% up my butt

foldyaup

ASTS I thought in early 2024 they have the ability to revolutionize telecommunications, the most boring sector we have seen in decades and they’re proving it. Rklb just wanted exposure to space/spacex but I do believe the company is a good one and growing

yellowstickypad

I never bought enough RKLB or PLTR. I thought LUNR would do better than ASTS.

michael_curdt

How dare you forget about ASTS

BananTarrPhotography

Take a look at the projected cash flow of ASTS in a few years.

AverageUnited3237

Starlink can do text barely, the claim that they have a service that's live right now is a marketing claim. ASTS is launching full 5g from space, true broadband, where by their own admission Starlink is 3 years behind at least. ASTS has Verizon, att, Vodaphone, vi, etc, a 3b user install base is there once their service launches. ASTS and Starlink currently have fundamentally different products and business models. The more you know the more you realize SpaceX and Starlink are not this omnipotent crushing force no one can compete with, and in this case against ASTS it might be the other way around if anything. Starlink currently does fixed broadband direct to dish (buy a Starlink terminal, broadband internet speeds for $120 a month) and a very unreliable texting service that barely works. Sometimes the text goes through, but after minutes of waiting, sometimes not. Their claim to having any type of service if just a marketing stnt and not even the same product or market as what ASTS is going for, which is true 5g broadband direct to device. Starlink is currently incapable of true 5g, it's a physics problem, small satellite and antenna cannot physically transmit broadband at scale to a phone on earth. Starlink tries to compensate for this with a large constellation - they claim they will need 6000-10000 of their NEXT GEN satellites to do true 5g service, which by their own optimistic claims is 3ish years away... and that's an elon timeline. Starlink service now is text only, it's a different product to what ASTS is launching this year and it will be Starlink who is the one that will prove they need to catch up to ASTS after this year. ASTS already has superior spectrum exclusivity via MNOs, superior tech, younger, growing faster, better business model, and further along in r&d. Starlink has 11m subscribers, ASTS can get that in a weekend once the service turns on. It's a global monopoly in this market for the foreseeable future, assuming they launch 45-60 satellites this year. SpaceX is dependent on Starlink v3 for true 5g due to antenna size, ( it's basic physics. You Need a large satellite). V3 is too big to fit in a rocket fare on any current flight, so it's dependent on starship, which has trouble recently. Best case, very generously, starship and by extension v3 won't deploy their satellites until 2027/2028, most likely by 2029/2030 given space timelines. V3 is also more comparable to block 1, ASTS is launching block 2 currently (just did the first with ISRO). By 2029/2030, ASTS will be on block 3 or 4. SpaceX and Starlink are not this insurmountable beast. ASTS will have a massive margin once the constellation is e deployed, their CAC will be near zero, their install base is already there to the tune of billions of devices, and no one is competing with them for the foreseeable future on a tech landscape - let alone on a spectrum acquisition and MNO partnership basis. Anyway, even assuming Starlink can compete, I'll give. Then credit and say they're only 1-2 years behind - the market is HUGE IMO. Analysts have no way to value it so their models are broken, numbers will be concrete this year and the conversation will shift from tech/binary risk to "wow how big will this be"? Buying asts is a bet not on 2026 nevessarily, just continued execution. You're free to make your own your assumptions about adoption, personally I think 1b users by 2029/2030 for atss is realistic if not conservative. Then the question comes down to ARPU, margins, valuation, and non communication (government) revenues - which will be significant.

FeeIcy156

I can enjoy this type of dilution. End of 2023: $6.03 End of 2024: $21.10 End of 2025: $72.63 AST SpaceMobile Inc (ASTS) share prices

burnerboo

For the quick overview, if you think starlink d2d service compares at all to ASTS, I have a bridge to nowhere to sell you. Starlink needs 1000s of dedicated satellites launched for d2d, and even then they likely won't get past text messaging. Yes they also have a signed contract with T mobile, but that's about their biggest customer. ASTS is signed with 50+ MNOs around the world representing more than 3B cell phones globally. ASTS is MUCH more positioned to capture global market share. They have very recently started their launch campaign with a launch 2 weeks ago and have another within 3-4 weeks. They expect to have beta service started by June of this year and full service in the US by year end. Spacex/starlink are both amazing companies in their own right, but they are miles behind ASTS in terms of D2D. It's not even close. Just look at the MNO agreement numbers to verify for yourself.

overthrow32

Don’t listen to any of these people. ASTS is going way higher, and we both know it. I’ve got similar returns as you!

Hacking_the_Gibson

Neither of these companies has actually grown at all.  This is entirely hype.  ASTS in their own most recent earnings report straight says they don't make any money from space phone service. It's a $40B, pre-revenue company. Fucking nuts. 

Business-Bathroom603

I used to work for ASTS. RKLB is one of my favorite companies. I think both are good stocks to hold on to long term. Good teams, good tech. Proven track record.

PotatoAltruistic7371

Would love to discuss that last point further. Interested to hear your thought here. Agree that ASTS has larger TAM and you see Starlink projected to have made 10-12B in revenue this year. But Starlink is already working on Direct to cell connection and certainly has more resources to complete that. ASTS is just finalizing a constellation of satellites and is like a 20M revenue company. You’re betting on them to sink their teeth into LT contracts by ‘27 beyond the sub 200m commitments from AT&T + Verizon. Meanwhile SpaceX has TMobile. And 9M customers. ASTS doesn’t even have their product out yet, just rolling it out - they are 3 years behind. I have no doubt they will get something out and it might have first mover for a bit but Space X will certainly be coming for that TAM - they are in the works to do that. Meanwhile RKLB is a 500m rev company that has a monopoly over its market small launch that SpaceX has no reason or desire to compete with. Not to mention that they will launch their own vertically integrated platform from creation to launch to deployment of systems when Neutron is operational (6 months max - they are almost done with the regulatory and that’s a overestimate of delay with how it’s already been delayed) Neutron won’t be their big step, that’s a 20B TAM which is less than their opportunity in spacecraft (30B TAM) and dwarfed by what I think is the real goldmine, Space Systems (400B TAM) and they’ve been planning that last element all along. Neutron isn’t the castle, it’s the gate. Soon RocketLab will have some actual cash reserves and can begin developing further ideas to be an instrumental player in the growth of space. They are operationally excellent and better in QC than any other rocket company IMO. When they flywheel their manufacturing in space it will literally be going through Space X or RKLB if you want to do something in space. they look more primed to be a definitive player 20+ years down the road versus ASTS who can be marginalized and cannabalized by SpaceX. Not to mention ASTS only has cellular. RKLB will be a player in 5+ verticals of space utility. I own both but am surely more bullish on RKLB to be a 100b company. Would love to hear your view!

captainri66

ASTS is the only stock that will triple and quadruple from here, think PLTR but on steroids

Emilio___Molestevez

I don't know the difference between $ASTS and $RKLB so I hold them both but the truth is I like $RKLB better

Iunatic

Good job sticking with it for so long. You could sell some if you want but the bankruptcy risk for ASTS is basically zero now. It will only fail if the tech literally doesn't work or Russia nukes Midland Texas lmao

Fun-Choices

I think LUNR is gonna be in the $50-$100 range this time next year. That’s my gut, I only have 300 shares, debating on when to add more, not if. I’m cash heavy going into the next few months, hoping for a big dip for ASTS (my dumbass sold at $40 after buying at $20) RKLB, and I don’t know if LUNR will dip much but if it even drops a few bucks I’m gonna try and have 1000 shares, at 300 now.

coronialnomore

Thats me about ASTS right now

Shdwrptr

SpaceX is big, but not even remotely big enough to push out everyone. ASTS has too big a hold to push out of D2C and RocketLab isn’t competing with Falcon9 launches at this point. The US government wouldn’t let SpaceX dominate the entire market for launches either

mikemikeskiboardbike

Still riding the ASTS train(rocket)... Holding.

BTTammer

I bought ASTS at 3-4 and sold at 17 and 34 thinking I was a king....ugh!

Heisendoof

Ya bro this is generally right.. too bad your recommendation sucks because ASTS and RKLB will likely outperform the market RIDICULOUSLY for the remainder of the decade. Every situation is unique, and this is one of the cases where you're just wrong. You should probably research the company now if you also want to retire early. Source - also made life changing money from ASTS.

cheapdvds

Trump on Monday: "RKLB and ASTS are run by illegal Somalis that have pocketed billions and billions of dollars, shut them down!"

Mapleess

I believe SpaceX also acquired a company that could rival ASTS better than the stuff they’ve currently got. The announcement for this caused ASTS to also drop a decent chunk in share price, but I’m pretty sure it’s recovered already. Elon or someone supposedly also said it would be ready in 2 years, which is more like 3-4 years probably.

GeneralTyler

I miss when ASTS was below 10$, missed out big time when people were talking about it back then

YoshimuraPipe

Also genuinely curious. What makes ASTS > RKLB

Odd-Block-2998

Retail must have a great year until September last year, where tech stock market became flat (QQQ +8% since 9/1/2025), rotation started, and meme stocks crashed. Only a few millions dollars posts and most of them are from big tech or already-surged-in-2024 ASTS or RKLB play. How about the old days where everyone +$1M every 3 months?

PooPooPointBoiz

How the fuck do people put SO much money into meme stocks, and hold that shit and come out with massive gains in the end? ASTS and RKLB come to mind. Yes, they have a good product, but the stock is so goddamn volatile, and when they've gone from 10 bucks to 80 bucks in a year, how can you keep holding, thinking they'll go even higher? I was on ASTS back when it was around 30, after it had run up from single digit dollar amounts. And I thought, I need to be ready to drop it at any moment, because this shit could crash. And lo and behold, that shit rocketed to what, 90 some dollars at the peak? How the fuck could someone put more money than me, hold longer than me, and come out ahead. With that mentality I'd think you'd lose your ass within a year and be broke as shit.

Jelopuddinpop

Their tech is simply inferior to ASTS.

justwannaretire45

Same as you, 8600 (ASTS) and 8100 (RKLB). I sell covered calls with strikes I’m okay selling at on half my total shares each, 2-3 months out. Haven’t gotten assigned..yet. Generated about $100K in 2025 doing that. I dump the premiums in SNSXX for the big dip that never comes.

swizzle213

Yep! ASTS is geared up to have a phenomenal year with launch cadence ramping up, beta service and opportunities for those sweet sweet gov contracts. Upside is huge with that company right now

Infamous-Safety4632

They held ASTS through the high risk phase. Hold that shit and when the company meets half of its launch targets he will be here again.

14X8000m

Why do you think ASTS is better than RKLB?

IndependentCod3330

What originally put you on to ASTS and RKLB?

davehan88

All these comments telling you to sell are just jealous broke kids. Having deep conviction in a few stocks and going all in on a few names for a long term hold is not the same as what these gambling apes do. Diversification preserves wealth but concentration is what builds it in the first place. Source: me holding 50000 shares of ASTS

captainri66

Dump RKLB and keep ASTS or buy more ASTS. ASTS is the next $1 trillion company.

Sufficient-Tie-8735

I’m with you. ASTS is gonna fly this year and then everyone’s gonna be commenting again saying sell sell sell

PoorhouseDog

I could see Elon expanding Starlink into ASTS market and forcing them out. While he is busy with that RKLB offers an alternative to other companies for payload deliver and space system development. IMO separate enough from what Space X offers that it will not trigger Elon.

foldyaup

9800 ASTS 15,500 RKLB. You have a great position.

AverageUnited3237

$asts gang here let's go! Im getting close to 14000 shares, thinking 2026 is our year What's your split between ASTS and rklb? I sold rklb for ASTS last year because I felt ASTS had a much bigger long term opportunity. So far id have been better off holding rklb, but can't say I regret buying asts. Personally think ASTS has a larger TAM and more explosive growth the next few years and monopoly like economics compared to rklb... But should be a good year for both! L

WickedSensitiveCrew

They are different market segments. ASTS’s direct-to-device cellular model is meaningfully different from Starlink’s user-terminal-based broadband. Starlink could move into D2D more aggressively, but that involves regulatory hurdles, spectrum issues, and potential cannibalization of its existing model. SpaceX dominates heavy lift and constellation launches, but Rocket Lab has carved out a niche in responsive launch, dedicated missions, and vertically integrated space systems. SpaceX can undercut on price, but not every customer wants rideshare or Falcon-class capacity.

Apollo506

Long on ASTS/RKLB and, tangentially, RIVN. I don't give money to nazis that throw sig heils at rallies and i couldn't care less what he does. On a more specific note, i think it is likely that a SpaceX IPO would draw attention to the space industry and investment toward stocks that are more affordable, so i think if anything these will get a boost.

Sea-Speech5213

That’s a fair concern. The biggest risk for ASTS/RKLB isn’t really the technology it’s whether SpaceX decides the market is big and profitable enough to aggressively compete

tastelikemexico

Will stick with RKLB or ASTS but I know nothing, I will watch this one and see what happens. Thanks.

Uzunzatu

Don't worry it's not bird brain - what I told you is not true in this caae. When I said Pelosi method I was referring to a lot of the Pelosi trades being deep ITM options on tech conpanies like MSFT or AVGO 12 or 18 months out. So deep ITM that they were essentially like buying shares, but with ASTS even deep ITM leaps are expensive as you rightly pointed out. Anyway, let's say you have $10.5k to invest in ASTS. If you buy shares at $73.21 that's 143 shares. If you buy $35 calls expiring Jan 2028 at $52.60, each contract will cost you $5260. So for your 10.5k you would effectively have 200 shares. Your breakeven would be $87.60 in 2 years. So you wouldn't have 2x the buying power, or whatever I said, you would have about 1.3x the buying power. This is just because ASTS is the most fancied stock for 2026 by retail investors so IV is very high. Basically your comment was more right than mine. For most other stocks, even Mag7 with the probable exception of TSLA, buying deep ITM leaps will effectively 2x your buying power but not here. Having said that, you could buy the $35 call for $52.60 and sell the $150 call for $26 which would mean your calls effectively cost you $26, but you would cap your profit if the share price goes over $150. If you're not sure what I mean by that better to run it through AI!

Astronut325

What are your plans for 2026? Are you going to continue holding ASTS or jump into other stocks? If other stocks, which stocks are you buying?

Jazzlike_Thanks_1869

ASTS will double if they hit their launch and production cadence! Been in since $17, it’s a wild ride but their Tech and Partnerships are about to change the industry. I like SOFI - PATH - BBAI - CTM - SOUN as well to all break out this year. It’s going to be a volatile year / Mid- Terms

SurgicalDude

Keep dreaming. TAM for ASTS is way bigger than RKLB.

I like the long term view! We usually just stick to our ETF’s for more long term stuff… do you think RKLB still has room to go? I’ve also been watching ASTS

superbilliam

Hey thanks for sharing, I had no clue. I already found info about the lawsuit with Wisk and a more recent one that JOBY filed against ACHR. Crazy stuff. I gotta dig more apparently. Full disclosure I'm invested into JOBY and ACHR. More so into JOBY, but you got me rethinking ACHR. I'm still bullish on JOBY. Also from your original list PL, ASTS, and AUR are a few others I'm bullish on. ASTS is a bit off track on their launches, but if they can keep up their pace and beat the cash burn they should be a compounding machine in a few years. Best of luck and Happy New Year!!

Slow_Investment_2211

ASTS

awe2D2

ASTs is beginning a major launch campaign this year, first one a couple weeks ago. Next one being fitted into the rocket capsule now for a soon launch and many more to go. With over 50 telecom companies worldwide with over 3 billion subscribers to those companies, the market ASTs has for global communications is massive. For example, Starlink just hit 9 million subscribers and predicted to have earned $11.8 Billion in revenue. If ASTS only matches those numbers with a 20PE would be worth 8x what they are today. And well, with all the telecom companies and subscribers with those companies already, they have potential to pass 9 million subscribers very quickly. Once ASTS gets enough satellites up there to turn on full commercialization this company will be worth more than 10x what it is today easily, and becoming a major player in world communications the sky is the limit for how much money they could make

Own-Rise-9328

Thanks so much for sharing! I think it’s really helpful. I’ll keep a close eye on PKLB, and I’m happy to share why I’m bullish on ASTS and INTC with you.

Iunatic

All of the WSB favorites were ripping the entire year too. ASTS RKLB HOOD PLTR NBIS all returned around 200% YOY. If someone didn't make money this year they will never make money in any market lol.

Own-Rise-9328

Thanks so much for sharing! I’ve been holding ASTS and INTC since 2025, and these are the two I’m really focusing on in 2026. Which companies are you keeping an eye on this year? Mind sharing a few?

MightBeOrMaybeNot

For a quick lottery stack, maybe: ASTS RKLB LUNR PL POET ONDS NBIS

HatTrickers

Tech stocks are looking super promising in 2026. Companies like ASTS with their satellite internet plans could totally change global communication if they pull it off. And Intel’s constant innovation in AI and data centers is setting them up for strong growth. With all the tech advancements, these are definitely stocks to keep an eye on in the coming years!

captainri66

ASTS is quite possibly best pure play in 2026, and beyond. It will take over Starlink and make it completely obsolete, that's why Musk and SpaceX are rushing to IPO.

Tasty-Musician3539

A lot more is priced in with respect to RKLB than ASTS. Just look at the forward projected EBIDTA margins of both companies and you see that if execution comes in ASTS will re-rate. I can't speak to NBIS.

Top_Effort748

I’m holding ASTS too. I’ve done some pretty deep research on it, and honestly, I think it has a lot of upside. I really believe this could turn out to be a solid investment

TeBp242

RKLB, ASTS, NBIS has had crazy run-ups last year. really what are the chances they'll run again?

2DaMoonAlice

How much would you have made buying ASTS calls instead?

ImpossibleOrb

Kind of jealous that if you install in ASTS and they own even half or 40% of the market you will be a billionaire or something when you are 40 lol. Can’t say the same thing for NVIDIA or riskier stocks, this is about investing in a “secular winner”

Shadowfax4221

\+109.84% RKLB and ASTS did the heavy lifting

Shdwrptr

Most of my money went into ASTS and RKLB. I invested into some other growth companies I thought were interesting that basically all failed (or at least lost almost all value). Some have somewhat recovered by now but I sold for a large loss to recover what I could at the time. From what I remember, they were MVST (EV batteries, LICY (EV battery recycling), ORGN (green plastics), LCID (EV Car maker). I ended up making small amount of money, or at least only losing small amounts in SOFI and STEM.

I'm still stacking SOFI this year, but also RKLB and ASTS in the space sector RDDT HOOD MELI CRWD MU / CEG / VRT in AI related plays

StonklordBenno

To realize a real / net positive return you have to account for a ~12% drop in USD value as well. Which makes the SP500 gain a net 5%. It’s on place 67 of performance of all stock exchanges this year. Something to keep in mind! That being said, did pretty well for myself with some big GOOG / NVDA buys in April, and a bag of ASTS 😎

I like the space stocks (ASTS especially, and then RKLB) but man. If you thought ASTS management was shady, RDW is an entirely different level. These guys are actual retards who don't give a fuck about the company's investors. The float has more than doubled in the last year.

younggungho91

Anyone buying more PL and ASTS?

EstablishmentFull797

How many other SPACs did you invest in during that same timeframe and did you put more or less money into ASTS and RKLB?

Silver_Initial3718

To be honest they remind me a lot of $IREN last year where people didn’t quite understand their business, worried about dilution and cash flow etc. Also reminds me a lot of $OPEN where they’re doing a lot of revenue but losing money which has lowered the multiple immensely. My biggest concern is a full blown recession will send all stocks cratering so this will easily be cut in half but if the govt. continues investing in drones, the $RDW recent acquisition could see new govt contracts and a rerating in 2026. I could easily see this one becoming the new darling for the year and running with $ASTS $RKLB. Big risk big reward imo

CyberbianDude

I got into ASTS at $32, about $15K worth. Hoping to hold it long term but keeping a watch for the next 5 years.

squirtymagoo

RKLB was just $40 a month ago and ASTS $17 one year ago. I like RKLB but at this price a lot of profit is still going to be taken in the following days. It's going to be a bumpy ride to $100.

RKLB was just $40 a month ago and ASTS $17 one year ago. I like RKLB and I think it gets to $100 in 2026 but its not gonna be a smooth ride getting there.

Will also be able to put another 8k in and will do a more long holds with opportunities in swing trades on breakdowns, and will use the 6k I'm up from 25 for a bit more speculative trades RKLB -ASTS - GOOGLE - INTEL - CEG - QBTS - IONQ - KRMN sone of which I'm waiting for next leg up confirms- and all with stops at either thesis breakdown or tighter trail stops or below the KC on runners/ strategy is to also keep the 8k a year in strong compounders and trip profits to pool into my speculative bin. Which is nice without any tax events within my Roth IRA.
