On June 22, Rocket Lab USA fell 3.21% in pre-market trading, trading at approximately $104.84/share, with turnover of $4.25 million. The decline comes amid sustained pressure on the broader space sector as SpaceX's post-IPO capital siphon effect continues to weigh on mid-and-small-cap space stocks.

SpaceX's market capitalization exceeded $2 trillion on its debut day, drawing massive capital concentration that has created systemic pressure on peers including AST SpaceMobile, Intuitive Machines, and Rocket Lab. AST SpaceMobile recently fell over 8%, while Intuitive Machines dropped more than 5%, reflecting broad-based sector weakness.

Notably, Rocket Lab is officially being added to the Nasdaq 100 index today, and KeyBanc recently upgraded the stock to Overweight with a $135 price target, arguing that the sector pullback represents short-term technical pressure rather than fundamental deterioration. Despite these positive catalysts, the persistent capital rotation toward SpaceX appears to be outweighing near-term buying interest from index inclusion flows.
