SpaceX’s (NASDAQ: SPCX) stock has fallen approximately 11% since its initial public offering (IPO) on June 12, with a current market cap of $1.85 trillion, down from $2.1 trillion at debut. This decline may be attributed to a high number of outstanding shares and the historical trend of IPOs underperforming after launch, rather than a lack of confidence in the space sector. In addition, investor attention is shifting back to smaller space companies that work with SpaceX.
Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) has seen a 21% drop over 30 days ending July 13, primarily due to its non-profitable status despite being added to the NASDAQ-100 index. Analysts estimate a price target of $111.88 for RKLB, indicating a potential upside of over 38%. Meanwhile, AST SpaceMobile (NASDAQ: ASTS) aims for revenue between $150 million and $200 million for the full year, targeting up to 45 BlueBird satellites by year-end, although it faces significant cash burn. Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ: LUNR), aligned with NASA’s Artemis program, projects around $1 billion in revenue for 2026 and has a backlog of $1.1 billion, with a consensus price target of $31.50 suggesting a possible 105% gain despite operational risks.
