I might buy more RKLB. Spacex keeps raining on the RKLB parade
The only two I liked were Apple puts and PLTR calls for earnings so far. The IV on Apple was sub 50 going into earnings, up 600% in a day. Starting to load up on Sep/Oct RKLB calls. At least you didn’t lose 98% by open though lol
Short spaceX and long RKLB so i feel like a hedge fund maintaining delta neutrality or something
I finally came back into the green on RKLB today and now.....
RKLB should sell Neutron shaped Dildos Would definitely make a decent revenue(and profitable) stream!
Keep RKLB out ya damn mouth op!
Fuck this stock and the algos. Dragging ASTS and RKLB down again.

RKLB is much more than just rockets already.
This is why I invest in ASTS over RKLB. There are definitely paths to RKLB growing rapidly but I personally think it would need to be fueled through military applications and not just their rocket transpiration. Space X has proven that there is a market with insane profit margins in space based telecommunications/broadband and they do a shit job with the service. It will be interesting to see if the space stocks ever diverge from each other because there really is zero reason for them to love together. RKLB, ASTS, and LUNR are all completely different business.
why is ASTS & RKLB charts perfectly locked in sync?
Lost half my port on RKLB going down, leveraging the fuck out out of it now into earnings mondays
Would be awesome if RKLB woke up and joined ASTS, wouldnt it???
I feel kind of silly putting so much money on RKLB calls when I would've made much more money just doing SPY calls even though SPY is moving only +1.1% vs RKLB's +5.5%. That's IV for ya
Do I hold my RKLB $75 12/18 calls through Earnings? Or take my 48% now and run….

RKLB is starting the stairway to heaven for my weeklies 🤌🏼
somehow my regarded self managed to bag weeklies on ASTS, RKLB & PLTR. How have I managed this moonshot when i’m this retarded
god shone upon me when i decided to choose ASTS, PLTR and RKLB this week, literally generational level gambling
Totally forgot RKLB has earnings next week. I have found where my PLTR money going. The week after they’re last er was the craziest shit I’ve ever seen
I sold RKLB too early
RKLB is going to 80 today 90 tomorrow and 100 the next week.
“Yeah I’m an investor :) I do deep research and invest in companies that I believe have significant upside potential” My research = “Rottenpusi34: RKLB $200 EOY!” Full port i’m >!sold!<
Same reason the East India trading company was the largest company of its time. RKLB has (or at least will have) unrestricted access to space real estate, and enough in house expertise to make use of that real estate. Any space business that they're not directly involved in, they build the components and satellites for it. I bought in at $6. It wasn't a large stake but I invested what I had, and that has given me enough to be able to diversify into other growth stocks. If SPCX is as big as it is, there is no reason RKLB can't be at least a fifth as big given enough time.
RKLB 150 end of month?
I want to full port RKLB but I’m afraid it’ll poopy down tomorrow, anyone give me insight
RKLB going up or down tomorrow?
Almost sold RKLB covered calls. Left so much upside and lost half my stack earlier this year, selling covered calls… trying to learn lessons. It’s gonna rip. Might buy calls
Damnit….uhhh all in on RKLB and ASTS! They probably have amazing margins. Lot easier to send rockets up carrying satellites then get DRAM, NAND, or HBMM these days.

That’s the thing. I love RKLB and am deep in the stock, but no one comes even close to SPCX. They won’t be losing any of these contracts as there isn’t a single company at their size or scale. It’s not even close.
I mean you're going to just think its cause I'm a TLRY hater again but i just really don't think TLRY is moving up on its own merit. IMO it really is just benefiting from timing with the broader market. It flushed down to lows, then the next day and continuing the broad market is ripping. MSOs just do not participate in that market action whatsoever, GTI has 150,000 shares moved today 30 mins til close.... I mean sucks you missed out on another few percent gains... but look at MSFT, MU, AMD, RKLB, META, even SPCX as you said... they're all up huge percent gains. I just don't see the benefit of trading TLRY vs companies that are actually good (literal cornerstones of the market), memes, or more volatile if swing trading a few percent is your trading goal. Obviously you have a slight "edge" in how emotionally attached you are to TLRY since you know and follow every bit of news about it... I just don't see that TLRY is trading as is because investors were all of a sudden like "you know what, those earnings were actually good after all" and instead is just participating through proxy/name recognition in algos and may just stabilize instead of continuing to dig new lows. As far as CGC is concerned... it just does not have the same name recognition as TLRY and has not yet "refreshed" itself in the news cycle since it hasn't done earnings yet.
I lost about 750k trading shares thanks to margin, SPCX, and RKLB With the way the market looks today what would you regards is a really conservative option play that will pay out pretty fat. I'm thinking about going a few months out and I need something to pay me out like $600,000. Do you have any ideas?
That would be 38 for LUNR, and I don’t have much RKLB but it’s 147

Is it too much to ask for RKLB to go up 400% today?
I'm thinking if there's any silver lining here, it's that the rest of the space sector probably tumbles with it. If that happens, I wouldn't mind picking up more ASTS and RKLB at even better prices.

Be careful man, I thought the same about RKLB and ASTS

What about RKLB, any feedback?
I'm already kicking my balls for not buying more RKLB when it dipped below 60. Feel like it's just gonna continue to rebound from here...
Why would anyone buy RKLB over SPCX?
RKLB was $16 in March 2025. It went up 10x and now after the crash it's still 4x what it was. It's not a cheap stock and buying it is a speculation of its future success. It's still a $40B company with annual revenue of under 1B. So it really trades on sentiment rather than fundamental, and its sentiment is tied to SPCX. SPCX most likely has more shedding to do. If I were you, I would wait for RKLB to decouple from SPCX before making a move.
RKLB went from 3 dollars to 100+. Then there were memory stocks. Just within the last year there were many more.
RKLB is actually doing real work in delivering communications and ISS work with no defects in their rockets. SpaceX actually has defective units and ketamine head just laughs it off like it's a hot wheels toy that lost a wheel.
Went heavy into RKLB at around $120 ahhhhhhhh need that bounce and execution. ....argh!!!
And here I am holding my bag OF RKLB $75 Puts expiring Aug 26th...😂 😅 😂
>So let me get this straight. RKLB **rips 46%** in the first half of the year, everyone in here is posting rocket emojis and calling it the next SpaceX, and then July shows up and deletes half the stock in a month. And the best part? **Nothing happened**. No failed launch. No dilution. There was dilution, but if you don't consider "ripping 46%" as *something happening* you're a fool and should stick to index stocks. You can't give a reason it should have been at $150 rather than $30, and yet you complain that it's not reasonable that after shooting up for no reason it falls back down for no reason. The reality of the situation is that it was already an inflated valuation when it pumped from $30 to $60-80. Then SpaceX announced an IPO and money poured into ETFs that included private SpaceX shares, which happened to also have the rest of the space sector, turning the entire sector into a big bubble that's now deflating while people cry because they're mentally anchored to the sky-high peak values as the "true" value of the companies. I wouldn't buy RKLB until it gets back to $30, and only then as a long-term hold. If I was looking for a shorter term profit I'd want it in the $15 or below range because that's the only way you can guarantee a good multiple in the short term.
Coincidentally about the time I first bought shares in RKLB
Buying RKLB dips is hard, I've been trying since $6. Sir Peter Beck is the shit and, while the $150 was fun, it was also silly; they are a great company and a long play.

Sold DRAM CC’s for EOM and my RKLB for this week Feels like we’ll be pretty range bound after such a volatile week, maybe slightly up
For me, 45 DTE is still short term. 120 is better, 180+ is better still. You still have convexity, but less convexity. I do like to pick wide OOM bear spreads for initialization. LT expiries are more expensive up front though, so you can narrow the bear spread a bit if that is an issue. My logic is that is that when own stocks with the most quickly ramping earnings and margin, I have to put up with a ton of volatility, especially overnight and Asia but I don't want to be forced to sell. If the spot drops all the way through a spread, like it did with SPCX and RKLB recently, I mostly just close them, sometimes roll, because I always have layered spreads. If spot drops through the spread, you already made most of the money, and you have lost convexity. But, I don't like to default to rolling because the best time to sell spreads is NOT the best time to buy them. I plan to permanently run with at least 5% of the value of my portfolio in bear spreads, unless the bottom falls out, then I may go straight long again. Because of this, I want to minimize the cost per day of hedging. Year-DTE bear spreads are even better, but again cost more up front. With layered LT expiries, you can afford to wait for great times to buy them, when the sun is out, when stocks are hitting new highs on fierce volume, when MTUM is ascendant, when call interest >> put interest, when there are no massive put floors right underneath the price. Most importantly, when IV < HV. If IV == HV, then I think the options are still underpriced. Black-Scholes models assume a random-walk Gaussian distribution, which is plain wrong. Actual forward distributions are much narrower than Gaussians and have much longer tails on both sides. The market dramatically overestimates the time that the spot will stay in a narrow range. If IV<< HV, on a stock, that is a juicy price. So wait for rallies to find firesale prices on LT puts. No one is forcing your hand. The middle of a crash is a bad time to buy bear spreads, but with 4-12 months DTE, that's fine, because you already have them. I always have a spread because I never expect a security to fall by 50%, though it happens, so why not make it cheaper? With this setup, your portfolio is the equivalent of a Poor-Man's VIX structure. This means you would just flat out buy SPY and buy a SPY bear spread or put at the same time. This is arguably cheaper and better than buying VIXY. I probably have some SPY bear spreads, but I like to concentrate on more volatile stocks but only when IV is low and spreads are good. I like SPCX and TSLA because they are so active so they have tight spreads, so you don't lose on the bid/ask spread just to enter. I'm flat out bearish on TSLA, and a little scared of SPCX because the last falcon heavy launch was a good one. Still overvalued, but I think a lot of retail traders who are rich from betting on TSLA (I was long until the cybertruck and semi delays happend) will give Elon all the funding he needs. I also think that these fanboys are leaving TSLA for SPCX, which is conventional wisdom, and behind all the talk that Elon will try to merge them. I think we does want to merge them, but he would rather hit TSLA capitalization targets first, then roll into SPCX to it SPCX valuation targets. In this market, I don't think he'll get the TSLA kickers, but he certainly could if SPCX made an offer for TSLA that is just ridiculously far above spot. SPCX and RKLB puts were super cheap with great spreads in the early days of the IPO, and let's face it, we know the average trajectory of an IPO. It will open too high, rally to a blow-off-top peak, then fall below the entry point as investors that have been in 5-10 years rush to the gates to unload as the lockup ends. I even have some low-value SMH spreads for more direct volatility purchases. But yeah, tl;dr: OOM bear spreads are very convex when the price falls into them. I just think it makes financial sense to go as LT as you can afford if you want to run with hedging; volatility can literally give me ulcers without them. Every down day, you can sort your portfolio by daily gains, see a lot of green, then think about when you want to close spreads, before you think about selling stocks with strong margin growth into a panic/value-at-risk unwind. Also, when you buy LT bear spreads, you don't have to buy them as often, so you lose money on the spread ONCE, not many times. But, everyone has their own style. I used to take a lot more concentration risk, I've made all the mistakes that noob investors make. Never buy LT spreads when the market is crashing because the MM and Wall Street will be busy stacking puts, IV>HV, a dumb condition.
> generational buying opportunity or are we the exit liquidity? Exit liquidity. Has nothing to do with RKLB the company, or aerospace in general. The month of July was the *worst month on record* for momentum/high growth sectors of the market; that is, worse than the dotcom crash, worst than the 2008 GFC, the group falling upwards of *40* for the month, which is of course a completely insane drawdown, particularly when the indexes are still near ATH. What happened? Institional traders, seeing massive amounts of leverage in the market, went risk-off, started selling/shorting their high growth sector positions and parking their capital elsewhere in the market (thus indexes still near ATH). Basically it was (and perhaps still is) an engineered selloff which triggered margin calls and cascading stop losses across the board. It's certainly a "generational buying opportunity" for the big players that triggered the selloff -- party time once the bottom is in and they pick up shares on the cheap in the very sectors that they destroyed.
Doesn't make much sense as to why RKLB would go down when a competitor is doing poorly.
Tbh the issue is the market cap. RKLB would be better valued around 5-10 billion, anything more feels like too much hype.
Yeah man and don't get me wrong like I love space as much as anyone else. So I'm not a space hater. But I am a realist and the reality is that none of these were even remotely close to worth the price they traded at. ASTS, RKLB, PL, LUNR (to a much lesser degree), etc. still aren't worth what they trade at as of Friday at close. It's a bull market so living in reality is kind of worthless but I think most people should be looking at the last year chart for these things and selling after such legendary runs. Diamond hands mentality and timing the market is different for stocks that aren't growth stocks. I mean your time frame on ASTS at the minimum is like 5+ years to actually see some sort of significant returns. So when this thing was $18 back in April of 2025 and ran close to $150 just a few short months ago.... And the company has literally done nothing. They make zero money.... You want to tell me "oh yeah we're just going to hold and it'll come back"? Lol.
I think because RKLB was $3B company to a $50B company in a short couple of years, it has a high beta correlation to market volatility, except that SpaceX's excessive valuation and volatility is driving the space sector as the market relevant to RKLB. RKLB just recently joined the Nasdaq 100. After Neutron, after earnings call, closer to Iridium acquisition, and more institutional buying, then the beta will be lower, though still high. So I think liquidity continually increases into buying the stock because the new contracts are continuing to come in, and the breadth of customers (EU and Japan) is only growing.
I’ve never understood the ASTS hype, it’s dependent on others to get its product where it needs to be(which isn’t straightforward). Like you pointed out RKLB has potential going forward especially if DoD contracts take off.
Don’t forget the penis rocket blowing up so dramatically. RKLB took a big hit that day. Started the slide IMO.
Maybe we somewhat have to become more realistic in valuating those space companies. What revenue and profit can they achieve with a working neutron rocket with working reuseable boosters and their satellite A to Z business. Hell even add research/space exploration/whatnot missions on top of that and some military stuff. Just napkin calculation to get a sense of the magnitude of their business. Then add realistic multiples to such a company - maybe look at premium priced aerospace companies for comparison (as they also have high barries to entry for new competition), maybe add some premium to this because space much bigger projection for growth. Each time I did this I was not really pleased. Because they have to become huuuge to justify a 100b USD valuation with said business above. And they are not even there yet. Still invested and bought more into RKLB when they nosedived recently. Started at 90 or smth. But if i look at it as said above this is stupid. It needs a hype for this position to work. People habe to ignore common sense. And thats retarded actually.
Sometimes for fun ill go on investing subs and comment illogical things like how ASTS is a better buy than RKLB because its share price is less. 10 angry people will downvote and comment essays about market cap vs total available shares and forward P/E and ill just close the app and carry on with my day. You just drop the bait and log off and let the fun begin. Im a sick person
I will be loading up on RKLB when it enters the high 20s
Because it's hype, and everyone wanted to get rich, and the hype faded, and everyone sold. Don't ask why RKLB is doing this. Ask why EVERY hyped meme stock is doing it, and then ask why RKLB "wouldn't*.
