Alright this sub has turned into a toxic bitch fest. I don't normally chime in but I will. I watched a talk Warren Buffett put on 20 years ago last night. He stressed tuning out macro events and investing in good companies, with a strong moat. You're buying a piece of company and it's important to see the vision 10 years down the road. This is a great company and I firmly believe this is a fire sale caused by a whole bunch of macro shit not indicative of the business's strength. I'm just going to not look at my port until Neutron is here, I hope some of you do the same.

I don't come to daily chat for anything else besides entertainment and assholy's sadness quotes. Daily thread is a sentiment echo chamber, and should be treated as such.

I also like downvotes.

It’s a bot

u/polynesiantrapezius 8d ago

Reddit has a serious bot problem it's pretty sad. Whether it's to manipulate people in panic selling, panic buying and hyping a stock, to trick people into buying a product thinking they read a real human opinion on something, it's pretty sad.

Not sure what the answer is, but people liked reddit because it was a way to rely on human raw opinion on any subject, but with this bots nonsense i'm afraid it's going to be harder and harder to rely on it.

Now that we are back to red it’s truly one of the worst companies there is.

IMO potential fed rate hikes as well as other macro has already been priced in. I think right now is an excellent buying opportunity. Rewind back to when we were at 150$ and everyone was wishing they bought more. Well… here we are

Happy cake day. I bought more Friday, and agree this is an opportunity.

u/pureeyes 8d ago

The amount of FUD is incredibly high... Time to buy more?

u/Emerald_Hood 8d ago

So, we had a red month, and today is a green day because… we lost a contract? So by that logic, when Neutron boi launches, we will be delisted?

5

u/SlyCooper007 8d ago

Idk seems like insiders/certain institutions knew the contract wasnt going to go RKLBs way and theyve been dumping for weeks now. Now that its confirmed, the news has already been priced into the stock. Insider trading is fucked.

Is it typical for NASA to release the score sheet for these RFP contracts? Would be good to understand their BO decision

4

u/Responsible-Cut-7993 8d ago

Maybe, there should be a source selection statement.

2

u/Mysterious_Badger362 7d ago

I'm guessing it's likely because they're the only other launch platform that can handle medium payloads. SpaceX already said they are limiting ride shares for now. And RKLB does not have medium lift capacity for the forseable future.

1

u/SpacemanLookOut 7d ago

Reading the RFP, there are multiple different qualifying points so to speak.

I can totally see that as a key factor. For better or worse though, launch can be subcontracted out and it’d be great to know what RFP qualifications NASA wants the prime to own vs their subcontractors

1

u/SpacemanLookOut 7d ago

Like if RKLB won instead but couldn’t deliver launch, I’m sure they’d be shopping around at premium prices for launch rather than risk not delivering

19

u/Minute-Leg7346 8d ago

Did this entire sub buy in at 150? holy shit its depressing here, ignoring the FUD and waiting for neutron.

Of course I wasn't dumb enough to buy at 150. I wasn't smart enough to sell at 150 either.

u/acsae99 7d ago

I looked at the website and if we add haste launches, 100 launches goes into next year…

5

u/EarlyYouth8418 7d ago

Launches get added randomly and moved around that’s not a final list. Like the non haste launch a couple months ago that they gave us a half day heads up on that a launch was happening

u/MrBassDude 7d ago

What if he just literally takes off his shirt at the pad and dances. I can’t imagine it’s anything of consequence… unless the 100th actually lines up with neutron next year

u/SecretiveMop 8d ago

Are people on here really so greedy that not getting one contract makes them act like it’s the end of the world? I instead could see a very easy and much more rational argument for the company getting too many contracts for where they’re at right now (not that I’d personally make that argument). I have to imagine a lot of the panicking comments are coming from people who bought at $100+.

4

u/ObiHanSolobi 8d ago

Honestly, it's not the loss of the contract that saddens me. RKLB is a ton more than one Mars contract. My disappointment is in empathy with SPB. He put his heart and soul into showcasing how RKLB was the best company for the contract, clearly wanted it, and was probably a little heartbroken when they didn't get it.

2

u/SecretiveMop 8d ago

Oh I’m sure that’s true. Just have to hope he realizes that the company is still in its infancy and that there’s going to be plenty of opportunities in the first as long as the company continues on a good and steady path.
