Wall Street is edging higher on ceasefire hopes, but the calm remains fragile. Between Trump’s looming Iran deadline and JPMorgan’s stark 60% plunge warning for Tesla, volatility is the only certainty [tap to join us for Profit Panel]
Last year was what I’d call beta heaven. Every high-beta name seemed to catch fire, and the fast money chased anything with momentum.
The problem is that many of those stocks climbed so high that trading them now requires a large account or deep risk tolerance.
Today I’m looking at a corner of the market that still offers that high-beta upside without forcing you to drop a mortgage payment on a single position: Space sector stocks.
Most of them are still trading in the same band they’ve been in, even as volatility remains high, creating room for traders who want leverage without oversized price tags.
Spire Global (SPIR), Globalstar (GSAT), Sidus Space (SIDU) and Momentus (MNTS) all trade at accessible levels. You’re not trying to swing at something out of reach for most retail traders, and SPIR is actually starting to look constructive if you’re scanning for names that are tightening up.
Take SIDU, it’s sitting around $3. You don’t even have to trade options if you don’t want to, you can accumulate shares. But if you want leverage, there are solid options chains across many of these names.
Firefly (FLY) has also been moving well lately, another reminder that there’s a broader group of space stocks waking up beyond the usual suspects.
That’s the setup I like: You can trade options, or you can trade the underlying stock. Your account size and risk appetite determine the tool.
High Beta Without the High Price
The space sector is loaded with high-beta stocks, which means when they move, they move hard both ways. AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) and Rocket Lab (RKLB) are the more expensive leaders if you have the capital, but GSAT, SPIR and SIDU give you similar volatility characteristics at a fraction of the entry cost.
Flywire (FLYW) is also coming back into play after a rough stretch. It’s another name where the chart is starting to behave again and the options are tradable. These aren’t blue chips, and they’re likely to see retracements, possibly sharp ones.
But when you’re working with stocks priced in single digits, you have room to scale in, test small positions and manage risk without putting your entire account at risk on one entry.
A Tiered Approach Based on Your Account
If you have a larger account, you can afford to trade the premium names with cleaner charts and tighter spreads. If you’re working with less capital or want more opportunities, this lower-priced tier gives you the same high-beta exposure without forcing you to go all in on one ticker.
I’m watching for setups where these stocks reclaim key levels and hold them on the daily close. If they do, I’ll consider starting small, either with shares or a defined-risk call spread depending on how the chart develops.
The space sector isn’t going away. The question is whether you’re positioned to take advantage when the next leg starts and whether you’re using the right tools for your account size.
