Word of the new space ETF had a swift impact on the limited number of public companies in the sector, withshares of pure-play space companies rallying the day after an Ark securities filing about the ETF was made public — as well as the stocks of two SPACs, or special purpose acquisition vehicles, which are looking to take space companies public.\nWood declined to comment on the coming ARKX fund, noting that she couldn't yet say anything about her firm's plans.\n\"We're in the quiet period when it comes to the fund itself. You have to wait until the SEC deems it effective,\" Wood said.\nReusing rockets is the 'only way' to get to Mars\nWood especially highlighted the work that Musk's SpaceX has done to develop reusable rockets, with the company now landing and re-launching rocket boosters with consistency. SpaceX is working on developing a next-generation rocket called Starship, to fulfill Musk's vision of building a rocket that is capable of regular flights – similar to an airplane.\n\"Many people were saying: 'Why is he doing that?'\" Wood said. \"Now we know the only way [Musk] is going to be able to get to Mars, or whoever the first people are. We are going to need reusable rockets.\"\nSpaceX has successfully launched multiple Starship prototypes, landing them safely after short flights to about 500 feet altitude. But its two most recent high-altitude flights, despite passing multiple development milestones, exploded on impact during attempted landings.Despite the explosive endings to the last two flights, SpaceX has viewed the launches as steps forward in the rocket's development.\nMusk three years ago estimated that the Starship project will cost SpaceX about $5 billion to develop. The companylast week closed its latest round of fundraising, CNBC reported on Tuesday, bringing in $850 million in new capital at a valuation of about $74 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":384654800,"gmtCreate":1613650812500,"gmtModify":1704883193021,"author":{"id":"3576713330249090","authorId":"3576713330249090","name":"GearOSv2","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97125e9070de3fba17a22a3186819452","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576713330249090","authorIdStr":"3576713330249090"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/384654800","repostId":"1102078157","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102078157","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613643052,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102078157?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-18 18:10","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Exchange hopes to list SPACs as early as this year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102078157","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"[SINGAPORE] The Singapore Exchange (SGX)could list blank-cheque companies this year if it gets enoug","content":"<p>[SINGAPORE] The Singapore Exchange (SGX)could list blank-cheque companies this year if it gets enough support from the industry.</p><p>An impending marketconsultation on special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC)this quarter could take some time to get feedback, chief executive officer (CEO) Loh Boon Chye said in an interview Wednesday.</p><p>\"If the market is supportive, we hope to be able to do that sometime this year.\"</p><p>SPACs became a buzzword last year, sprouting by the dozen as the rich and famous - from hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman to former US Speaker of the House Paul Ryan - and private equity firms rushed to set up new ones.</p><p>SPACs are increasingly seen as an appealing alternative route to public markets because the process avoids the risk and uncertainty of an initial public offering, though they've also been criticised for their structure, where managers - the founders - collect fees as an incentive to find a target and complete a deal.

Word of the new space ETF had a swift impact on the limited number of public companies in the sector, withshares of pure-play space companies rallying the day after an Ark securities filing about the ETF was made public — as well as the stocks of two SPACs, or special purpose acquisition vehicles, which are looking to take space companies public.\nWood declined to comment on the coming ARKX fund, noting that she couldn't yet say anything about her firm's plans.\n\"We're in the quiet period when it comes to the fund itself. You have to wait until the SEC deems it effective,\" Wood said.\nReusing rockets is the 'only way' to get to Mars\nWood especially highlighted the work that Musk's SpaceX has done to develop reusable rockets, with the company now landing and re-launching rocket boosters with consistency. SpaceX is working on developing a next-generation rocket called Starship, to fulfill Musk's vision of building a rocket that is capable of regular flights – similar to an airplane.\n\"Many people were saying: 'Why is he doing that?'\" Wood said. \"Now we know the only way [Musk] is going to be able to get to Mars, or whoever the first people are. We are going to need reusable rockets.\"\nSpaceX has successfully launched multiple Starship prototypes, landing them safely after short flights to about 500 feet altitude. But its two most recent high-altitude flights, despite passing multiple development milestones, exploded on impact during attempted landings.Despite the explosive endings to the last two flights, SpaceX has viewed the launches as steps forward in the rocket's development.\nMusk three years ago estimated that the Starship project will cost SpaceX about $5 billion to develop. The companylast week closed its latest round of fundraising, CNBC reported on Tuesday, bringing in $850 million in new capital at a valuation of about $74 billion.","news_type":1},"isVote":1,"tweetType":1,"viewCount":68,"authorTweetTopStatus":1,"verified":2,"comments":[],"imageCount":0,"langContent":"EN","totalScore":0},{"id":384654800,"gmtCreate":1613650812500,"gmtModify":1704883193021,"author":{"id":"3576713330249090","authorId":"3576713330249090","name":"GearOSv2","avatar":"https://static.tigerbbs.com/97125e9070de3fba17a22a3186819452","crmLevel":1,"crmLevelSwitch":0,"followedFlag":false,"idStr":"3576713330249090","authorIdStr":"3576713330249090"},"themes":[],"htmlText":"Nice","listText":"Nice","text":"Nice","images":[],"top":1,"highlighted":1,"essential":1,"paper":1,"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"link":"https://ttm.financial/post/384654800","repostId":"1102078157","repostType":4,"repost":{"id":"1102078157","kind":"news","pubTimestamp":1613643052,"share":"https://ttm.financial/m/news/1102078157?lang=&edition=fundamental","pubTime":"2021-02-18 18:10","market":"sg","language":"en","title":"Singapore Exchange hopes to list SPACs as early as this year","url":"https://stock-news.laohu8.com/highlight/detail?id=1102078157","media":"Bloomberg","summary":"[SINGAPORE] The Singapore Exchange (SGX)could list blank-cheque companies this year if it gets enoug","content":"<p>[SINGAPORE] The Singapore Exchange (SGX)could list blank-cheque companies this year if it gets enough support from the industry.</p><p>An impending marketconsultation on special purpose acquisition companies (SPAC)this quarter could take some time to get feedback, chief executive officer (CEO) Loh Boon Chye said in an interview Wednesday.</p><p>\"If the market is supportive, we hope to be able to do that sometime this year.\"</p><p>SPACs became a buzzword last year, sprouting by the dozen as the rich and famous - from hedge fund billionaire Bill Ackman to former US Speaker of the House Paul Ryan - and private equity firms rushed to set up new ones.</p><p>SPACs are increasingly seen as an appealing alternative route to public markets because the process avoids the risk and uncertainty of an initial public offering, though they've also been criticised for their structure, where managers - the founders - collect fees as an incentive to find a target and complete a deal.
