$Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ my biggest issue with the company is not that it's peaked, this is just the beginning. The next catalyst will be their neutron rocket reaching orbit next year and having a partially successful re entry. If they do it in H1 next year, the stock will jump again. If it's delayed into H2, well I'm perfectly happy with that, I think that's more realistic. But it would put downward pressure on the stock if it doesn't launch til H2.
I run a margin account here in tiger, so my only issue with Rklb is volatility. To be fair when it goes from $42 to $77 in under a few weeks it plays havoc on my portfolio. Now I'm once again in a position where I mite have to trim. Not because I want to, it's just repeating earlier "problems". It once again is getting up to over 50% weight in my portfolio.
Realistically, it's not a bad problem to have. At one point two years back I went all in at around $3.60 buying shares and call options. I would buy 2 calls at various prices and various leap dates. Then I would sell 1 call and excise the other with the profits.
The trade pic below just shows the returns on the stock, made as much if not more on calls.
Next year I'll be just picking up rklb on dips. I will be using the rklb call strategy on 3 other stocks. I believe there will be less volatility next year though. What I would consider the Trump factor this year, aka crazy announcements, retraction, double downs. I think while this spooked markets in 2025, next year it will be largely shrugged off, it's just Trump blowing his Trumpet. The market will be less bothered. Merry Christmas tigers
