Space Economy

Finding

SpaceX's share releases are a genuine risk, but the evidence does not support treating them as an automatic sell signal for every space stock.

What changed

SpaceX gained around two major release windows, while listed competitors behaved differently; eligibility to sell has not translated mechanically into falling prices.

Decision

Change the action from unknown to HOLD existing, appropriately sized exposure and WAIT on new sector-wide purchases. Do not liquidate solely because shares become eligible for sale.

Watch next

The next 7% release, the larger earnings-linked release, actual shareholder selling, and fund withdrawals rather than falling prices alone.
