Rocket Lab Crash-Lands 11% Post Earnings, Board The Stock Before It Breaks $30
RKLB
Published: May 12, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Rocket Lab USA, Inc. stock crashed 11% post earnings on Friday due to softer guidance, making for a superb buy opportunity into this growth stock. Investors are missing the big picture and what Neutron will bring in 2H25, so what we're seeing is just panic selling. The Neutron rocket, cheaper and reusable, is a game-changer, competing with SpaceX's Falcon9 and securing major government contracts already.

Rocket Lab: Still A Buy Despite High Valuation
RKLB
Published: May 09, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Rocket Lab's Q1 results showed a revenue increase of 32.1% year-over-year but a sequential decline. Long-term growth remains promising with Neutron rocket developments and new contracts. Despite current losses due to Neutron investments, Q2 revenue is expected to grow 6-14% sequentially, driven by improved ASP and Space Systems output. The NSSL Phase 3 contract and Mynaric acquisition bolster Rocket Lab's position in defense and commercial markets, enhancing its end-to-end space service capabilities.

Last month, I climbed out on a limb to ask (and answer) the question: Where will Rocket Lab USA (RKLB -2.70%) stock be in five years?
