Is Rocket Lab Stock a Safer Option for Space Investors Than SpaceX?
Both stocks have been on similar trajectories since SpaceX went public.
Overview
Investing in space is a huge growth opportunity for investors. Did you know that by 2034, the global space economy is projected to be worth more than $1.1 trillion? That's according to analysts from Fortune Business Insights. In 2025, it was estimated to be worth $648 billion. It's already large and is on track to become even more massive, and companies are investing heavily.
Space Exploration Technologies Corp (NASDAQ: SPCX), also known as SpaceX, is easily the most recognizable and largest company in the industry. But Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) also makes for an intriguing investment. And with its valuation being a fraction of SpaceX's, expectations may not be nearly as high for it.
