πŸ”₯πŸš€ $RKLB: Pennant Breakout Meets Multi-Decade Space Supercycle πŸš€πŸ”₯

Barcode
08-11

$Rocket Lab USA, Inc.(RKLB)$ I’m extremely confident $RKLB is on the verge of a breakout that could redefine its market position, driven by a bullish pennant setup, institutional accumulation, and a Neutron launch window that could ignite a space sector re-rate. This isn’t noise; it’s the start of a multi-decade growth cycle that Wall Street is still underpricing.

πŸ“Š Chart Breakdown

$RKLB closed at 44.64 (+1.09%), breaking through a tightly wound bullish pennant that’s been forming since the 53.44 high. The 1H and 4H Keltner and Bollinger overlays show price consolidating near the EMA21 and EMA55 mid-zones, with upper Keltner resistance near 48 and Bollinger squeeze targeting 50+. Weekly structure holds above the 30MA at 43.24, maintaining higher lows from 25.92. This is not divergence; it’s detachment from prior range dynamics. RSI remains in mid-60s on higher timeframes, avoiding overbought territory while MACD flattens for a potential crossover. The pennant’s measured move projects toward the 55–58 zone on breakout confirmation, with volume expansion already spiking. A liquidity flush under 43 could retest 40.32 support before the next leg, but sustained closes above 46 open the path to 49.29 and 53.44.

πŸ’° Earnings Snapshot

Q2 2025 revenue growth came in at 35.9% YoY with a 2-year CAGR of 52.5%, continuing a multi-quarter trend of scaling efficiency (Q4 2024’s explosive 120.7% YoY growth was a high watermark). Execution here shows no signs of fundamental erosion despite macro volatility. This isn’t just about quarterly beats; it’s about sustaining aerospace compounding in a market reckoning for credibility resets.

πŸ›° Segment Revenues

National security contracts, mega-constellation deployment, and deep space infrastructure are the core revenue pillars. Neutron’s first launch is still targeted for late 2025; even if delayed 3–6 months, the multi-decade growth arc remains intact. That launch opens multi-billion dollar TAM in defense, commercial constellations, and eventual crewed missions. DARPA-related AIM-9 Sidewinder integration underscores $RKLB’s role in defense-grade propulsion and payload adaptability, a moat few can replicate.

πŸ“ˆ Flow & Institutional Moves

Options chain shows Aug 29 calls in heavy play: 48C at 2.05, 50C at 1.50, and 55C at 0.67, with IV at 78.58% (+8.22 implied move). Delta clustering between 0.30–0.38 suggests targeted directional exposure. Institutional accumulation has pushed $RKLB into the #6 spot on IBD50 with a Relative Strength rating of 99, alongside $PLTR and $HOOD. That’s a technical badge reserved for the market’s leadership cohort.

πŸ’΅ Valuation Check

Current market cap near $20B sits at ~5% of SpaceX’s ~$400B valuation. Using ARK Invest’s base case $2.5T for SpaceX by 2030, that ratio alone yields a $125B target for $RKLB, or ~$264/share (6x from here). The bear case ($1.7T SpaceX) still implies $85B ($187/share), and the bull case ($3.1T SpaceX) lands at $155B ($352/share). If $RKLB grows market share to 10% of SpaceX’s footprint, those 2030 PTs double. By 2040, ARK projects SpaceX at $13T, the extrapolated upside becomes generational.

πŸ” Analyst PTs & Sentiment

Sentiment is firmly bullish, with social chatter spiking post-earnings on the pennant breakout. $RKLB’s defense and launch cadence narrative is being positioned as β€œSpaceX’s only pure-play publicly traded peer.” Analysts are framing execution risk as short-term noise versus long-term inevitability. As one space sector analyst noted, β€œIf Rocket Lab keeps executing, they’ll own the small-to-medium lift segment before competitors even reach pad readiness.” Prove me wrong.

πŸ›  My Trade Plan

I’m tactically bullish into the breakout, scaling on dips toward 43 with defined risk under 40.32. I’m holding a staggered call spread into late August targeting 50–55 with runners toward 58 on momentum continuation. If we see a credibility reset pullback, I’m prepared to double exposure ahead of Neutron’s first launch window.

πŸš€ Conclusion

By year-end, $RKLB trades north of 60 if Neutron’s pad-readiness is confirmed, setting up for a market-wide re-rate that prices in its share of the space supercycle. This isn’t hype; it’s asymmetric risk-reward in a sector about to experience its market reckoning.

    πŸš€$Rocket Inc.(RKLB)$πŸš€ That 99 RS rating puts RKLB in serious leader territory. I’m all for loading watchlists with names breaking technical patterns while having TAM expansion like this. The SpaceX comp just makes the upside case stronger πŸ”Šlet’s go rocket lab πŸ’₯

      The 55–58 target’s interesting because it lines up with where momentum traders and long-term funds might overlap. That overlap’s rare and usually fuels the kind of sustained runs leaders are built on

    RKLB’s breakout energy feels a lot like when PLTR ripped on contract news but with way more upside potential if Neutron delivers. The 43 floor and those higher lows make it super hard to ignore right now

      Totally KT, the 43 floor with those higher lows gives RKLB a strong base to launch from. If Neutron hits timelines, the upside could mirror PLTR’s momentum but with a far bigger TAM πŸ’₯πŸ’₯

    πŸš€That valuation spread between RKLB and SpaceX really puts things in perspective. If ARK’s base case for SpaceX plays out, this multiple compression could snap back fast. It reminds me of how PLTR rerated when its gov contracts hit scale. The breakout setup’s clean and worth tracking

      Exactly CCW, that valuation gap’s the sleeper catalyst. If SpaceX scales anywhere near ARK’s forecast, RKLB’s re-rate could be fast and aggressive. PLTR’s move is a perfect parallel, and the chart’s already showing the kind of base strength that institutions chase.

      The forward contract visibility is exactly what strengthens the long-term case. As margins expand with scale, the shift to profitability could re-rate the stock significantly.

      That kind of early positioning shows real foresight. If execution stays on track, the compounding effect from here could be substantial over the next few years.
