Space as an Investment Opportunity: Rocket Lab Has Grown 1,100% Since 2024

From an investment point of view, the capital market offers many interesting opportunities, and not only those related to artificial intelligence. Investors often forget this, which does not provide their portfolios with a sufficient degree of diversification. In recent years, the space industry has also experienced a significant boom, as evidenced, for example, by the successes of a well-known company - SpaceX. However, this giant is out of reach for a retail investor, which is why attention is turning to Rocket Lab.

Space as an Investment Opportunity: Rocket Lab Has Grown 1,100% Since 2024

Strong growth and strong partnerships

Starting with the focus, the company deals with the most modern space technology, and from 2024, investors can currently see an appreciation of more than 1,000% with this investment. To some investors, this number might seem suspiciously high, but at the same time, it is crucial to note that the growth was also directly supported by the company's growing fundamental situation.*

Most recently, it managed to carry out the 68th successful launch of the Electron rocket, including two launches in 48 hours, which confirm the technical maturity and reliability of their rocket technology. Following this, Rocket Lab has also signed a contract with the European Space Agency (ESA), with which it plans to launch satellite systems, before December 2025.

Where does a company have a competitive advantage?

Upon closer examination of Rocket Lab's business, it can be found that the aforementioned Electron system is defined as small within its size, which brings with it one very key factor that investors will undoubtedly appreciate when planning investments. Given that the space business is relatively only at the beginning, many companies cannot afford traditional large rocket launches, which is why Rocket Lab wins by a wide margin when choosing a satellite carrier for orbit.  Of course, very beneficial. In addition, according to the latest information, the company is able to produce one rocket every 15 days, which is, of course, very beneficial for the expansion and also for the final result.

Outlook for investors

In conclusion, Rocket Lab is currently one of the most interesting stories in the space technology market. With record share price growth, a strong portfolio of partnerships and a strategic focus on small rocket launches, the company is becoming a key player in this segment, and as an investor you can be part of this whole, especially in its beginnings with long-term growth potential.
