SPCE has strong momentum and high volume. SPCX may get SpaceX hype, but SPCE is already moving and could benefit directly from space-sector excitement.

What's the updates and news today, everybody?

I had 40 shares before the drop and used stop loss for profit and then into $SUNE while it’s down. I need someone who actually did the math and things of that nature to theoretically tell me when’s the last day to buy to hit obviously before the 12th but want sum more opinions like what price would you buy again at?

Annoying pattern tbh,

It goes down and right back halfway the whole day to the opening high,

Are you scared mr market maker,

You dont wanna price it LET IT DOWN THEN ARE YOU SCARED…

DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE HOLDING?

The question is, how much mistakes will there be made?

0,01% = 50% gains for SPCE

0,1% = 500% gains for SPCE

0,5% = complete Mayham!

Take ur dirty ass stops out till Friday lil volatility won't hurt you js hold ts

I’m not posting this as a “SPCE to $20” hype thread.
I think the market may be mispricing what could happen over the next few weeks.

Here’s why.
Most people look at SPCE and see a company that hasn’t started commercial operations yet and has diluted shareholders multiple times.
What I think they’re missing is the setup.
Space is about to become a mainstream investing theme again.

For years, space investing has been niche.
That changes when one of the most recognizable private companies in the world becomes investable. Whether you’re bullish or bearish, SPCX is likely to bring millions of new eyeballs to the sector.

Every major IPO creates sympathy trades.
The question isn’t whether sympathy trades happen.
The question is where the attention goes.
There are very few pure-play public space stocks.
If retail investors suddenly become interested in space, there aren’t many liquid names to choose from.
SPCE remains one of the most recognizable publicly traded space companies in the world.

The debt overhang may be getting less attention than it deserves. The recent note redemption structure potentially pushes meaningful principal obligations further into the future while reducing near-term pressure on liquidity.
The market may not fully appreciate how different the narrative becomes if investors stop focusing on survival and start focusing on execution.

Short interest remains elevated.
I am not claiming a short squeeze is guaranteed.
But history shows that when a stock has a large retail following, a recognizable catalyst, and elevated short interest, moves can become much larger than fundamentals alone would suggest.
Commercial operations are approaching.
The company continues targeting commercial operations in Q4 2026.

If management executes, the conversation shifts from “Can they survive?” to “How much demand exists?”
Those are very different valuation discussions.

My thesis is simple:
Most traders are focused on SPCX.
Very few are asking which public stocks could benefit if retail money starts rotating into the broader space theme.
SPCE might be one of the most obvious answers.

What am I missing?
I’d love to hear the bear case.

It’s the amount of flights that make this a proposition.

Space-Ex has nothing to do with this company. That is a civilization or at the minimum infrastructure builder into orbit and beyond to propel humanity.

This company can benefit from that and much more from other advancements now, not in 10 (data centers), 20 (moonbase), 30-45 years (mars), but now….

This is not a space or science company, this is an amusement ride. The most expensive one!

People have paid tens of thousands to implode in a multimillion submarine near instantaneously underwater using a ps5, no……., ps4 or 3, controller.

What do you think about riding up into and past the sunset, around the world once over to experience the weightlessness of gravity, the lonely planet beneath you, and back down, an astronaut.

As an investor, they are doing almost each other day flight schedules hopefully before 2030….even at 2x biweekly, no amusement ride can come close this amount of money as of right now it is valued as one too if not below it’s full future.

The price keeps going down. Do you think it’s gonna moon this friday?

There are two answers: what they can do right now, and what they hope to do when the system is fully mature.
Right now (June 2026)
Essentially zero regular commercial flights per month.
They are:
Testing vehicles
Finishing Delta-class spacecraft
Preparing for commercial operations
Not running a high-frequency tourist service yet
The first Delta commercial flights are targeted for late 2026.
Initial commercial phase (early 2027)
Virgin Galactic has stated it expects:
4 flights per month starting around January 2027
8 flights per month by Q2 2027 when the second Delta spacecraft enters service.
With:
6 passengers per flight
$750,000 per passenger
That equals:
4 flights/month = 24 passengers/month = $18 million/month gross ticket revenue
8 flights/month = 48 passengers/month = $36 million/month gross ticket revenue
End-game plan
The real goal is much higher.
Virgin Galactic has repeatedly stated the Delta spacecraft are designed to fly roughly twice per week per spaceship.
If they have:
2 Delta spacecraft
2 flights/week/spacecraft
That’s approximately:
4 flights/week total
~16–18 flights/month
~200 flights/year
The company previously discussed targets around 125 flights per year using its initial mothership/Delta setup, then expanding further as additional vehicles arrive.
At 125 flights/year:
125 × 6 passengers = 750 passengers/year
750 × $750,000 = $562.5 million/year gross ticket revenue
At ~200 flights/year:
1,200 passengers/year
$900 million/year gross ticket revenue
Those numbers are why investors still watch the company. Today it generates almost no revenue, but if it can actually reach the planned flight cadence, revenue could jump from hundreds of thousands of dollars per quarter to hundreds of millions of dollars per year. The challenge is proving it can fly safely, frequently, and profitably.

Who else is buying ?

Been watching this one for a while now and yeah the last week has been a rollercoaster. Went from $3 to nearly $8 then back to the $4s. Stings if you chased the top but honestly? I see this pullback as an opportunity.

Here's my thinking. They actually got VSS Unity flying glide tests again at Spaceport America. That's not a press release, that's a plane in the air. The Delta ship is physically in the hangar being prepped for Q3 test flights with commercial service still targeted for Q4 this year. That's months away, not years.

Jefferies just reiterated a Buy a few days ago. They cut operating costs 26% and beat Q1 EPS estimates. They've got roughly $220M cash on hand. Not great when you're burning $50M+ a quarter but enough to get to the finish line if nothing goes sideways.

The ticket backlog is real too - hundreds of reservations at $450K-$750K a seat. The second a Delta flight actually happens the story completely changes from "are they ever going to fly" to "they're flying."

Float is tiny. Short interest is still high. You do the math on what happens when good news drops.

I'm not pretending this is without risk. It trades like a meme stock half the time and the losses are ugly. But I've been around long enough to know sometimes you just have to hold through the noise if you believe the underlying thing is real. Space tourism is real. The Delta program is moving. I'm staying in.

Not financial advice, do your own research etc.:)

You really think money is going to magically flow from SPCE into a SpaceX IPO?

Come on.

The people selling you that story are counting on retail investors not understanding how these things work. The big players have already positioned themselves long before any IPO hits the public market. They’re not waiting for your shares.

Don’t believe every headline or every YouTube thumbnail screaming “SPCE is dead because SpaceX is going public.”

Space tourism, research flights, hypersonic technology, future satellite deployment — SPCE still has its own story to tell. Whether you believe in that story is up to you, but at least make the decision based on facts instead of fear.

The market loves to shake people out right before things get interesting.

To everyone still holding: do your own research, ignore the noise, and remember why you bought in the first place.

See you at the hangar on Monday.

If we manage to go below $4, my hedge fund is ready to buyout around 1-2% of virgin galactic.

Why would I be telling you this? My hedge fund already owns a large share of options bought over 2-3 months which are largely in profit so a pump regardless would benefit. If we do hit below $4, I will pull the trigger as I am the director and purchase a whopping 1-2% of SPCE. You will see on the charts, we are ready. Are you?

All the negative comments about virgin galactic are hilarious. I was on a spacex reddit and everyone was calling elon a fraud and said spacex will crash. These reddit post are filled with people who short stocks and have puts.

I bought around $7 and now I’m down like $300 I put $1000 in. I thought it would go up to maybe $14 $20 and didn’t want to miss my chance. What’s everyone’s thoughts on this stock think we can see over $10 in a few months.
