Rocket Lab: My Biggest Miss And Best Call Ever
Rocket Lab has delivered a 780% return in under 14 months, validating my initial bullish thesis despite my personal decision not to invest. The company stands out as an end-to-end space services provider, benefiting from a rapidly expanding space economy and strong government/defense relationships. Financials are robust: 36% YoY revenue growth, strong gross margins, a $1B backlog, and a healthy balance sheet despite ongoing losses.
