Space stocks could offer significant long-term growth opportunities as the industry expands beyond rocket launches into satellites, orbital broadband, communications, defence applications and other space-enabled services, although high valuations and extreme volatility could make the investment journey uneven, according to a research report by Goldman Sachs.
The research report noted that opportunities may increasingly emerge from the broader space ecosystem and its supply chain, rather than only from companies directly involved in launching rockets. Semiconductor, electronics, software, advanced materials, manufacturing and communications infrastructure companies could benefit as the commercialisation of space accelerates.
