Key Highlights
- These 10 stocks could mint the next wave of millionaires › Rocket Lab (NASDAQ: RKLB) had one of the most promising bull runs in 2025 -- until one announcement brought the stock crashing over 27% in a month.
- Some investors think of Rocket Lab as "SpaceX-lite," noting that it operates in the same ring (reusable rockets) but in different weight classes (SpaceX mostly does medium- to heavy-lift and mega-constellation launches, while Rocket Lab focuses on small-satellite launches).
- Rocket Lab's Neutron was set to change all that.
- The medium-lift rocket increases its payload mass to 13,000 kg for low Earth orbit (LEO), which makes it a viable alternative to SpaceX's medium-lift clients that don't necessarily need a full Falcon 9 experience.
