NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 10:17 ET — Regular session Rocket Lab Corp shares rose 2.4% to $72.36 by 10:11 a.m. ET on Monday, a bounce after last week’s sharp swings.

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 6:58 PM ET — Market closed Rocket Lab Corp shares fell 8.5% to close at $70.65 on Friday, a sharp pullback that ended the holiday-shortened week on a weaker note for the high-flying space stock.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:59 p.m. ET — Market closed U.S. stock exchanges are shut for the weekend, leaving space and defense investors to parse a dense batch of late-week headlines and year-end macro signals before trading resumes Monday morning.
