Does Rocket Lab have what it takes to keep winning big?          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">When it comes to charting the outlooks for companies operating at the frontiers of transformative new technologies and services, there&#8217;s inevitably a lot of speculation. Rocket Lab has a strong position in the rocket-launching services space, trailing only Space Exploration Technologies\u00a0(SpaceX), but there&#8217;s a lot of guesswork when it comes to forecasting how the category will unfold over the long term.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">On the other hand, Rocket Lab&#8217;s strengths in launch technologies and services look promising &#8212; and the company has been making some smart moves to capitalize on them. The space tech specialist recently announced it is purchasing telecom company Iridium Communications in an $8 billion deal that should significantly expand the business and dramatically improve its financial picture.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The move will move Rocket Lab into more direct competition with SpaceX&#8217;s Starlink business, but that actually looks like a smart move. With Rocket Lab already offering strong rocket launch services, it makes sense to move more directly into satellite and communications businesses to capitalize on substantial cost synergies.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">So while Rocket Lab stock remains very risky, I think it offers potentially massive upside for investors willing to hold it over a decade.  <\/p>\n<p>        We just issued &#8216;double down&#8217; alerts on 3 stocks \u2014 find out if\u00a0Rocket Lab made our list          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Ever feel like you missed the boat in buying the most successful stocks?
