I'd Double A Position in This Space Economy Stock Right Now With No Hesitation
Yahoo Finance ·
After falling more than 35% over the past month, Rocket Lab 's ( RKLB -9.13% ) latest price action may seem troublesome. However, this sharp pullback looks like an opportunity to bottom-fish in this popular space stock . Yes, the shift in sentiment does have substance. After an initial wave of enthusiasm, investors are now having second thoughts about the company's recent acquisition plans. While this pending deal has negatives, its long-term impact on Rocket Lab's future growth and valuation could offset the initial uncertainty. On June 29, Rocket Lab, a satellite launch and manufacturing company, announced plans to acquire Iridium Communications ( IRDM -4.05% ) in an $8 billion cash-and-stock deal. As this transaction adds Iridium's satellite network and space telecom business to Rocket Lab's existing capabilities, post-acquisition, Rocket Lab could become a smaller version of Space Exploration Technologies , aka SpaceX. In fact, it was these SpaceX stock comparisons that initially drove investors to respond positively to the deal announcement, rocketing the rocket stock from the mid $80s to just over $100 per share. Since then, however, shares have fallen back to Earth, and then some. Right now, the stock is hovering just around $70 per share. Initially intrigued by Rocket Lab becoming a possible "SpaceX in the making," the concern now is how this merger affects future growth.
