RKLB for the sheets, SIDU for the streets and SLS for the antibiotics after seggs

After the huge run up on INTC NKE MU ASTS RKLB ONDS SNDK last week, the market is gunna rip even harder. Those names are going to absolutely gap up tomorrow lol, don’t be surprised if you see INTC 43 MU 350 etc. etc.

RKLB back to 30 a share by EOY **🤫**

TradingDeus

I like that your calls go brrrrr! But I think some of them are going to stall out all. A lot of them have similar patterns which indicates they will follow the greater index moves. MU been on a nice rise but weather report shows it's raining in San Jose today so some of gains are going to be washed away. LUNR - little suspect, priced increase based on news not fundamentals. Execs sold shares while fellas hope this takes off like a rocket RKLB - hesitates this week needs more rocket fuel. (Execs sold shares not acquired) Fellas dreaming this is the next SpaceX. But really just space dust ... KRKNF - test the tops and then drops

If you want to win you have to pick stocks with more room to grow. As good as your picks are as companies, none of them can double in size this year. The contest isn't compounding for decades, it's this year. Check out SLS, RZLV, ASTS, RKLB... stuff like that can go up much faster.

RKLB is moonshot but SpaceX is already in the moon; Don’t sweat about politics. Focus on making money.

Celticsmoneyline

bought my first RKLB shares two years ago today

livehotrod

So they already raised 50M so that is over.. It’s a handful of companies in the vertical area that SIDU is involved, SIDU covers hardware, software and data (handful of companies on each one of those, close to none that does ALL three and at a low cost). They will win by expertise in different areas and by low cost which is how SpaceX gets so many contracts. Traded around 1.5B in the past two weeks, so a 10-20M offering literally had zero impact on stock price, it was bullish. Primarily die to its criminally undervalued market cap, compared to other peers, they’ve operated extremely frugally and lean to focus on tech and manufacturing. They also have Jim Larson, the AI mastermind of Palantir. They also have an inked deal with Lonestar, the company putting data centers in the moon/space which is backed mostly by NVDA. Due to low cost of manufacturing and operation, a contract can send this flying above 20$. And still be undervalued, RKLB is at 6-7B market cap while SIDU is at around 130M market cap. Being selected for SHIELD and also for Golden Dome means that YOU BRING SOMETHING IMPORTANT TO THE TABLE, ESPECIALLY A SMALL COMPANY LIKE THIS. My entry was at 2.40 and i’m not selling a single share. So, over 2,100 companies on shield but they all do extremely different things, from selling bolts to satellite software and hardware and missiles and gas and everything you can imagine, but for what SIDU does, its a handful and pretty much none that does all three under one roof. I rarely post DD here, but saw this and wanted to make sure we all know the truth, this company is heading much higher.

IhateEfrickingA

RKLB ? Why not Echostar corp ?

ObiHanSolobi

I have the same story with RKLB, though only sold a little on the way up. For energy storage, EOSE did well by me. Still holding it. My gut says it has more room to run if the AI infrastructure industry keeps growing strong.

gaintraiin

It’s too far out to invest in now. And the two companies with writing on the wall would be blue origin and SpaceX since they’re the only ones with reusable heavy and super heavy launch systems, but they’re currently private. RKLB produces satellites but they’ll be medium lift with Neutron, still one of the most solid space plays.

bank_truth

I think you're kinda in the middle with this with that timeline. It's not quite long enough to go full risk, but not so short that you need to play it safe either. For individual stocks like RKLB, you don't want your down payment dropping 30% right when you're ready to buy. Maybe diversify that. Put some in VTI and or VOO, and 40 to 50% in a HYSA. Over 5 to 7 years, there's about a 10 to 15% chance the market is down when you actually need the money. With a house purchase, that timing matters. HYSAs are still paying decent returns. When you factor in the tax hit on short term gains and volatility, they look pretty reasonable for part of your savings. We built a comparison tool on our site (BankTruth) so you can check updated rates without hunting around. Rates can always rise or fall depending on the Fed. All in all, just don't put everything in one place when you've got a specific goal and timeline.

RKLB will $100 this year guaranteed

1 million? wouldnt that mean RKLB hits something like $250 for that part of your options contract to hit that?

Bought ONDS at $0.84 RKLB at $4 KULR at $0.43 and sold before the RS See my posts on ONDS subreddit

ndykstra24

APLD, ARKX, NBIS, IREN, MU, QBTS, BBAI, POET, ASTS, RKLB if you think AI and space sector will keep advancing through 2026.

BuildingElectronic69

Damn, ASTS and RKLB printing. My turn next year!

MildTerrorism

Start investing in them now, their prices will continue to rise through 2026 with all the AI stuff they're doing, RKLB is still a good buy even at its current price imo

Salt_Safety2234

Buddy, respectfully, there is no way ASTS & RKLB are tanking 80 - 90%

Beefjerkysurf

the amount of replies on folks that don't understand RKLB or the TAM of the opp in space the next 15 years makes me want to buy more ofer $75

OrdinaryReasonable63

Huh? Like what company listed above is critically important to the US national interest? I’d even argue the current administration would happily let RKLB fail given how much influence Musk has.

The-zKR0N0S

RKLB is my biggest position but you are being delusional. To begin with, Gwynne Shotwell is who really runs SpaceX. If anything, compare her to Beck. SpaceX definitely has an advantage in their access to capital for sure but that is not their only advantage. Falcon 9 has flown over 600 times. Starlink is already dominant. If Starship ends up being successfully developed as intended then it will be game changing. It looks like SpaceX will IPO for $1.0 - $1.5 trillion which pretty decisively refutes your claim that SpaceX’s rocket development program is not shareholder friendly.

Consistent_Mood9238

RKLB good for another run you think?

alysslut-

Same. My only problem now is that RKLB grew from 10% of my portfolio to >70% and I'm no longer diversified.

alysslut-

Me too. I have the exact same line of reasoning as you. Have you since invested in any other companies besides RKLB?

ethereal3xp

Last year has nothing to do with 2026 How many companies are capable of doing what ASTS and RKLB do, and how essential are their services?

Anthais

War here... answer space.. RKLB calls?

Worried_Quarter469

Yeah I missed space, I considered RKLB at 16 last year, too risky now

Macaframaz

I researched space related stocks when Trump first took office on his second term under the thesis that his presidency would favor space companies for USA military and communication expansions. From there I looked at who had the most upside and financial stability to invest in. Landed and locked in both RKLB & ASTS positions at sub $20. Essentially, you have connect world or national events to companies that can benefit, see who is the best candidate & choose your position and risk profile accordingly.

The-WideningGyre

Most brokers have a "paper" account, which will track how it goes, but won't use real money. I'm not actually sure how they deal with bid/ask spreads, which often get larger for options. The basic ideas, all options have an expiry date, the latest date which they can be exercised, a price, and an underlying security. 1) a call is the option to buy at a fixed price (you want the underlying price to go up) 2) a put is the option to sell at a fixed price (you want the underlying price to go down) You can both buy and sell options. When you sell, you are selling the *commitment* rather than the option to buy/sell. It's riskier. In general, the price of an option is set by two things -- the difference between the strike price and the current real price, and the expected volatility, which increases the further out the option expires (so it will cost most to but a TSLA call for $450 in June than in March), but also depends on underlying security -- some are more volatile than others, so more a of a volatility premium is added to the cost of an option. Generally, when you buy an option, you are paying that volatility premium (since you have the choice to exercise), and when you sell one, you are being paid for it. When you buy an option (put or call) your losses are limited to how much you paid for the option -- it can become worthless, but that's the most you can lose. Both generally have higher potential upsides. When you sell an option, you losses can get quite large. When you sell a put, you commit to buying at a certain price. So if the stock drops far below that price, you can end up overpaying by a lot. If you sell a call, you are committing to sell at a certain price. If you own the stock, it's called a "covered" call, and you downside is limited, but you'll be out the stock. Your upside is limited essentially to the premium you got selling the option. If you don't own the stock, it's called a "naked" call, and you can have a very large downside indeed. Most brokerages won't let you sell naked calls unless you have a lot of money and experience with options already. In practice, I personally use options for two reasons. One, less so, the classic reason is to hedge. I have a fairly large GLD position, for example, and so have bought puts at about 20% below the current price, 6 months out. This is like buying insurance. If GLD drops more than 20%, I can still sell most of mine at the -20% price, so I'm limiting my downside, but I'm paying the option premium for that. The other reason can be to buy ETFs that you want to buy, but can't, e.g. with a European residency. You sell a put, and pocket the premium, and when the option expires if the price is right, you are "assigned" (you buy) the ETF/stock. Finally, it can be a way to get exposure to security without investing as much money, but typically you're better of just buying the stock. But maybe you don't want to buy RKLB directly -- you can buy a call a few months out and slightly above the current price. If the price drops, you're just out the price of the option, if it goes up, you can either sell the option for profit (called "selling to close") or let the option be assigned (you buy the stock). You will have paid the volatility premium, but have traded a small fixed cost for reduced maximum downside. If you get it into it, start small, and start with a paper account, and recognize you probably don't need to.

Do it and buy 2027 and 2028 options on stock with upside like rocket lab! ( RKLB ) I’ve been exercising options and buying hundreds of rocket lab in my Roth yesterday at 4 to 5 dollars! I maxed on my Roth with options while RKLB was cheaper to maximize my share count later on and worked beautifully yesterday. Felt good buying yesterday at 4 bucks while sure price was over 70. Still have 2028 options. Also just bought leap options yesterday to pull this off again in 2028 with ( archer aviation) and ( red wire )

I made mistakes when the tariff scare occurred. I had sold puts on RKLB, ASTS, and SOUN a few weeks before. I did panic on SOUN and sold off PUTs losing a good chunk, but hung in there on RKLB and ASTS getting assigned. I think the lesson was I panicked when I should have hung in there and got assigned on all since my PUT strikes were reasonable at the time to get assigned and then do ITM calls. Also, chose stocks that had a good chance of gains for the year. Turned out the tariff scare was emotionally driven, and had a quick reversal. Should have kept the SOUN puts in play. The story ended good though. End of year I did very well on ASTS and RKLB doing ITM calls, selling shares, and doing some LEAPs last month. Still holding ASTS for big bounces this year.

raddaddio

Whole thing is in RKLB and has been since $7

SmanSman234

I made a few too. I sold some put options on SOUN and INOD too high that tied me up since October doing rolls due to the AI scare. I think it was manufactured to decrease values for big money to make moves, but that is another story. I rolled puts and got assigned on most. This happened to me with RKLB, ASTS, and SOUN last year, I did well end of year selling Leaps, doing ITM Calls, and selling shares, though a short time of pain, looking at the total year return was very good. Key is though assigned, these are still money making stocks, so their values will go up again. Waiting for a bounce, probably at earnings coming up will do ITM calls, leap Calls, or a combo for INOD and SOUN.

xploeris

If ASTS can actually gets its sats up, it will fly. Lots of execution risk so it's not priced for perfection yet. Sentiment on RKLB is mixed. Surprisingly, there seem to be a lot of people who believe SpaceX will crush it, it's just a garbage meme stock that doesn't make profit, etc. If you believe that it's overpriced. OTOH they've gotten a lot of contracts, including the very big one with Space Force, there's more to their business than just rockets, and when Neutron goes operational it may eat into SpaceX's business - if this is how you see the company, the stock is still cheap (though nowhere near as cheap as it was at $40 just weeks ago, and boy, I wish I'd bought more then, but I was trying to keep my port somewhat diversified for safety). Either way, we should see substantial movement in 2026.

Ok-Range-3306

you cant be serious when you start at september 2022 when the stock market was at a low? anyone could have invested anything and made way more than this why didnt she buy RKLB or NVDA? where was the insider information there? zoom out on TCMD and look at where they were in 2020 shes actually very bad at picking stocks, any regard here would have done better

I was replying to your comment about ‘gambles’ not OPs original question, however, RKLB has extremely strong leadership via their CEO who lives and breathes rockets/space and with a 100% success rate in 2025 with their Electron rocket, I have strong confidence their Neutron rocket will also be a success, this coupled with their recent contract wins puts them in a good position to start making a profit by 2027-28. ASTS proven tech and multiple partnerships with all the major carriers should see them make decent margins in the near future. There’s a lot of good detailed DD on the respective subreddits which should sway your decision to hold these for the long term and make some good $$.

Jasoncatt

Four fund portfolio was up 13%. Dividend portfolio earned me 11.7% yield but had some NAV decrease due to large number of BDC investments. Ended up 9% overall, but with overall beta of 0.7 was significantly less volatile compared with the market. Star of the show for me was the speculative growth and trading account, started this with $800k in February, ended up with $1.36m, a 70% increase give or take a few dollars. This holding and trading options on RKLB, SMCI, SOFI, RDDT, NVDA, SMCI, ASTS, HOOD amongst a few others that I sold puts on but was never assigned. In total my accounts were up almost $780k to $3.45m - almost 30% for the year.

altonbrownie

I’ve got $10k in RKLB and ASTS. Will that make me a $20,000-aire?

AlohaWorld012

Thank god for RKLB

Leeschannel

I am too chicken to try options. The one time I came closest I wanted to buy RKLB calls (this was around a year ago). I was sitting on the toilet in the morning, with my hands shaking as I scrolled ETrade and looked at the options available. But when I was going to buy one, Etrade didn’t let me because they had to wait a few days to verify my account or something. The feeling of almost buying it was like a drug, my hands were shaking. Glad I have not touched it because I probably would’ve lost a bunch of money.

conradical30

Not the same guy, but I’m also absurdly overweight in RKLB. I also started going in on it in Aug-Dec 2024. Peter Beck is one of those CEOs you feel good about. Adam Spice is a huge add as CFO. There are too many things to go into detail about with the company. I’ve been doing heavy research on them & ASTS for well over a year.

dont_downvote_SPECIL

It's very clear & obvious to me everyone saw the top stock picks of 2026 on Wall Street Bets and bought those stocks ASTS, RKLB, MU, and RDDT

SpaceX buys out Coreweave and puts data centers in space. They’ll all it Starweave. Then Google will buy NBIS and RKLB and they’ll do the same but call it Constellation. Thus begins Star Wars Episode I.

They should have gone public before Elon started the political shit. They still will be valuable with only US Government contracts (and maybe Brazil, but imagine if the ESA, JAXA, and India were still on the table. RKLB is going to clean up outside of the US

RKLB, BKSY, and SMR. The Roth is where risk is turned up pretty high for me. Within reason of course.

I am just holding the ETFs that cover those stocks. Mostly UFO. I sold off my ARKX today in my main account to move some of those funds to my roth IRA, plus Cathie Woods' changes to the holdings the last couple of months have made me move away from it (plus i get twice the % return on UFO anyway). Ive been considering doing some scaliping on the leverged RKLB ETFs recently though 🤔 working a full time job makes scalping hard though ☹️

I do get that sentiment analysis matters, but what is it about the fundamentals of RKLB that makes you believe there will be a pullback? I can see it dropping to $55 but this looks like the epitome of a buy and hold stock. Interested to hear your thoughts.

P/s of 72x. For comparison SpaceX is projected to be at about a P/s of 68x so RKLB is in the same ball park with more meat on the bone from a marker cap growth perspective. Source of SpaceX projections: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/spacex-1-5-trillion-value-162337757.html

I can say that I'm a buyer at today's prices as my goal is to accumulate and top off at 3,000 shares. You can find all you need about RKLB here: [https://rocketlabcorp.com/](https://rocketlabcorp.com/) The next few launches this quarter are around 6 from Electron, their small rocket: [https://nextspaceflight.com/launches/?f=rocket\_4](https://nextspaceflight.com/launches/?f=rocket_4) Their medium lift rocket Neutron, a Falcon 9 challenger should fly their maiden voyage this quarter: [https://nextspaceflight.com/rockets/284/](https://nextspaceflight.com/rockets/284/) A successful launch and landing should propel the stock RKLB to $90-$100 easily as it's a validation of their capabilities. Neutron gets $52M per launch.
