RCKT.AX is trading at A$9.90 (+3.77%) as space equities broadly rallied on August 6.
- Voyager, Redwire, AST SpaceMobile and Rocket Lab posted strong weekly gains; RCKT is particularly sensitive because Space Exploration Technologies represents 28.7% of the portfolio, while Rocket Lab and AST SpaceMobile are also major holdings.
- Softer U.S. private-payroll growth of 44,000 supported rate-cut expectations, while easing Strait of Hormuz tensions and lower oil prices improved risk appetite for growth-oriented space companies.
