I was taking a look at upcoming Wallops Island launches after todays Electron launch went flawlessly (as per usual) and found this site with a projected Neutron date. Don't know how legit it is but figured I'd put it up here anyway.
Side note, my two RKLB long sleeves arrive tomorrow!!
Edit: I forgot to circle the part I am referencing, just look at the third listing 'Maiden Flight' TBD 2027 date
TLDR: Looking for advice to increase holdings in the space industry. High appetite for risk!
Here are my positions. Any advice is appreciated. Very bullish on RKLB and ASTS. I like RDW and FLY because I work in defense and have seen the great level of work they do. YSS was bought because I liked the hyper-focus on defense but that hasn't gone well so far, might sell for a loss and re-invest somewhere else. I had a good average for SPCE but got excited when it took off during the SPCX IPO - holding until it rockets or goes bust.
I'd like to add another 75 shares to RKLB to close 50k and increase ASTS by 5k, RDW by 3k, FLY by 3k, & VAST by 3.5k. After that I am open to adding a few more promising companies to the portfolio - any suggestions? I see a lot of people mention Blacksky Tech, Kratos, LUNR (missed the rally because I couldn't pull the trigger), Lockheed & Northrup (I consider these defense stocks more than space but then again I am pretty stupid - also considered buying 2 weeks ago before the defense rally), and yes I am considering... SPCX... after the next lockup period ends - any real advice on this one is appreciated.
Context here: I am 26 and have 4 years reaming on my gov contract so like I mentioned above, I have a very high risk to reward appetite. That being said, I am pretty new to investing, started making decent money 3 years ago and been saving like 90% of my income literally living in a shit room with 5 roommates in a house and eating lettuce and hopium. Going to continue this for another 4 years at least. No family money, but I can move back home worst case so I guess that does let me take more risks. I started with a managed portfolio because 'ProFEssiONals aRe YOur bESt cHaNcE' - learn from my mistake here; don't give away a free percentage or two of your hard earned money just to make peanuts (if you make anything at all). At that point just VOO and chill if you don't want to deal with the investment stress and hassle.
Current value is at $60,512.60, which sits at a loss of $3,611.59 - much better than a few weeks ago, but obviously I am looking long term so I'm confident this number will look very different in 5 years. Remainder of my portfolio is tech (mostly AI and semiconductors, small positions in quantum and nuclear).
I will also add, the financial advisor I spoke with from work is very, very much against this lol. Fortune favors the bold my friends.
Good luck to us all! In space we trust! And lets all meet up with our lambos and Aston Martins in a few years when space triples : )
Edit: Hopefully when I reach institutional investor I can get into things like Impulse Space, I think private offers good value for some stocks right now. One day!
I will get the Nico hublot teeth if someone can find a source for this watch - Venezianico Egypt 100th Anniversary Limited Edition. Been looking for a year and finally decided to just spam watch subreddits looking for this.
