All Eyes Are on SpaceX's Next Share Unlock on Sept. 9. But These 3 Unstoppable Growth Stocks Are Better Buys Hiding in Plain Sight.
Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile, and Redwire offer alternative ways to invest in the growing space infrastructure market.
Overview
Space Exploration Technologies (NASDAQ: SPCX) has given investors plenty to get excited about this year. The company's IPO was all the rage this summer, as tech pundits and analysts weighed its impact on the market. But for retail investors, SpaceX has a problem that has little to do with rockets: Its various stakeholders can't sell most of the shares they own -- yet.
When companies go public, their pre-IPO stakeholders -- employees, executives, and other early investors -- can't start selling their shares immediately. Lockup periods are put in place to prevent too many shares from flooding the market in too short a time frame. SpaceX laid out a staggered schedule for the release of those shares over the next year, and the next release date falls on Sept. 9.
