Rocket Lab RKLB (Page 16 of 16)

Rocket Lab - 'Viva La StriX' Launch After much thought I hedged a large part of my position with $130 covered calls for July. I really like Rocket Lab but I feel like the $80B valuation doesn’t make sense with where the company is currently at. |

Anyone have a specific strategy on how to play the SpaceX IPO via the RKLB shares? I'm almost exclusively a buy and hold investor, but due to some circumstances beyond my control I'll be losing my corporate gig at the end of the calendar year Because of this, I'm thinking about trimming my position by 12% in both RKLB and LUNR. Polymarket (at the time I'm writing this) has a 71% chance that SpaceX closes first day above 2T. . . . I'm thinking I sell a small amount the day prior to the IPO and then the remainder day of (pending the price action) |
Look, yes, I have banged HUNDREDS of broads. INTERNATIONALLY. But know this - I wrap my rascal, TWO TIMES, cuz I like it to be joyless and without sensation. It's a way of punishing supermodels.

@The_Master_Shake The premiums right now on RKLB options are insane probably due to the SpaceX IPO. Instead of just selling shares I’d probably look at selling covered calls. The January 15th 2027 $185 call closed Friday with a bid of $27.45. In plain English: you could agree to sell shares for $50 higher than today’s price and get paid $27.45 for doing so. |

I have access to level one options trading, but I haven't gone down that road before. I'll look into it as an option, thanks! |

Worth noting I just threw out the January expiration because it would push any taxable gains into the next year. Could be to your advantage w/ the job situation. |

I think at $8 and change its a pretty good coin flip to get some exposure prior to the SpaceX IPO, but Im out @Procat Sorry I didn't give you a more enthusiastic response. Saw they hit $20+ this morning

The entire sector is on fire in the run up to the IPO and the Iran peace deal prospect is pouring gasoline on it. I did put some sell orders in. My portfolio is sitting at 60% + space stocks so Im going to trim, but will do the majority of it the week of the IPO. |

Blue Origin just lost a rocket on the pad. Tomorrow should be interesting with what a tear space companies have been on lately.  Blue Origin New Glenn spacecraft exploding at NASA Cape Canaveral launch complex 36. |

Reading on Stocktwits that the rocket that exploded likely destroyed the pad and that was the only pad set up for New Glenn, I’ve never dug deep enough into them to know if that’s accurate or not. |

I’m not that up to speed with Space things, just looking for deals…mainly RKLB. While I don’t know any Blue Origin employees, there’s around 2,000 of them here (Huntsville) and several large facilities. |

Normally, this would be a great time but we're stacking all our powder/chips gunning for an allocation on June 8th for June 12th. Part of my thesis is that; -Trump and Musk are buddies again -Trump has historically been able to control the narrative surrounding Iran -Trump would make sure the market is favorable during the IPO even if it's short term I am hoping that the above is still true and come IPO week/day we see fresh ATH. This is why I only sold a small portion (5%) of my RKLB position last week. Planning on selling 25% around the IPO |
