Movement Alert｜Rocket Lab USA, Inc. Falls 5.03% in Regular Trading, Massive Bearish Options Bets Continue to Pressure Stock

Market Focus08-25 02:49

On August 25, Rocket Lab USA, Inc. declined 5.03% in regular trading, trading at $68.95/share, with turnover of $703 million, extending its recent downtrend.

The decline comes amid sustained large-scale bearish positioning in the options market. On August 21, two deep-in-the-money PUT orders totaling approximately $17.9 million emerged, including a $13.65 million dual-leg PUT combination explicitly betting on downside. Earlier on August 19, a $2.61 million far-dated out-of-the-money CALL sell order appeared, with institutional traders capping upside expectations at the $145 strike price. On August 18, another $1.07 million out-of-the-money CALL was sold at the $110 strike, further reinforcing the view that large capital sees limited upside potential.

The cumulative effect of these multi-day bearish flows has intensified selling pressure on the stock, which has now retreated significantly from its mid-August levels above $80.
