Space stocks are publicly traded companies whose businesses are materially connected to space-related activities—such as satellite manufacturing and operations, launch services, space-based communications, remote sensing, in-orbit servicing, and the aerospace components and software that support them. Investors buy space stocks (directly or via themed ETFs) to gain exposure to the commercial space economy, which can offer high growth potential but also carries sector-specific risks like long development timelines, heavy capital requirements, and regulatory uncertainty. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Space stocks within the last several days.
