The investors know what Virgin Galactic can do. Thus, it is difficult to know how this stock can move? One hand the price for the round trip is expensive and its not sustainable long run? But the selling point of being fascinated by the galactic views is there... lets see how it would go..

Since the close of trading on Friday, shares are down 31.6% as I'm writing, trimming over $3 billion in value off the company.\nThe only announcement out from Virgin Galactic Wednesday was the scheduling of its second-quarter 2021 earnings announcement for Thursday, Aug. 5, after the market closes. But that's not what's moving thisgrowth stock Wednesday.\nSo what\nThe sell-off in Virgin Galactic shares began early this week after management filed to sell as much as $500 million in stock. The sale wasn't a block sale at a set price, but instead will be made \"from time to time\" through \"sales agents.\" In other words, the company may have sold a large chunk of stock earlier this week, or it may have sold nothing, sitting on the $630 million in cash it had on the balance sheet as of March 31.\nInvestors will likely get an update on the stock sale and cash position on the earnings call, not to mention what management plans to do with the cash. As Virgin Galactic moves closer to commercial operations it may ramp up spending on spacecraft and other operations, which could be a good use of the cash to drive growth.\nNow what\nThe sell-off this week seems to be a lot of \"sell the news\" after last weekend'sspace flight, which included Sir Richard Branson. With a volatile stock like Virgin Galactic that's not entirely surprising, and for long-term investors it could create a buying opportunity. If shares fall much further I'll be looking to add shares to my portfolio in what could be a revolutionary space tourism and travel company.","kind":null,"is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":true,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"0","news_tag":"","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":1},"commentList":[{"id":144487895,"gmtCreate":1626310452017,"gmtModify":1703757552642,"author":{"id":"3582074828081294","authorId":"3582074828081294","authorIdStr":"3582074828081294","name":"asdine","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/1de6a3b69cd62b99233606d7c5500508","vip":1,"crmLevel":5,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3582074828081294"},"htmlText":"Yup","listText":"Yup","text":"Yup","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":2,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/144487895","repostId":1166344664,"repostType":4,"isVote":1,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false,"reportStatus":false,"tweetType":1,"langContent":"EN"},{"id":144488213,"gmtCreate":1626310255532,"gmtModify":1703757545041,"author":{"id":"3575407991823828","authorId":"3575407991823828","authorIdStr":"3575407991823828","name":"Alihuat","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/d450d741a6a78a315c768cda177843d8","vip":1,"crmLevel":4,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"idStr":"3575407991823828"},"htmlText":"The investors know what Virgin Galactic can do.
