The real space economy “

The macro environment coupled with the fact that AST Spacemobile kind of failed miserably at executing once again, we might see a decent pullback here

I love these moments because in parallel, going on at exactly the same time, Rocket Lab has been executing flawlessly.

Mynaric and a lot of other type of good news have cleared the path towards an incredible eoy Neutron launch

I’m convinced that in space, a solid track record is the best way possible to anticipate future outcomes

Hence, Rocket Lab will keep executing while AST will once again, and for the 100th time, fail miserably at respecting its timelines and deadlines. They won’t have nowhere near the number of satellites or the revenue or anything else really, that they promise at every quarter

Do yourself a favour, load up on $RKLB and forget the rest

Rocket Lab has already begun hiring for positions in Europe. One of note is “Director, European Government Operations”.

A job responsibility which raised eyebrows for me is “Shape Rocket Lab's positioning in active European policy debates - including launch sovereignty, the European Defense Industrial Program (EDIP), dual-use technology regulation, and the EU Space Program's procurement framework works.”

‘Launch sovereignty’ is interesting. Is Rocket Lab eyeing up a European launch pad? Otherwise feels strange that they’d want to put a focus on launch sovereignty.

It could literally use their own satelites to do the exact kind of business that companies like Planet Labs is doing. It could generate another billions and stocks that rely on earth data will be severely affected. I think it is just matter of time SPB announces such business to happen. Vertically integrated means it could do literally anything. Super bullish 🚀🚀

Edit: guys I just thought it was cool to see no need for the hate 🫠✌️
