Sidus Space belongs in the too-hard pile because its leadership cannot be trusted, however much cash it holds. Its CEO owns Craig Technical Consulting, a private firm with 94% of the voting power, raising conflict-of-interest and governance concerns. A post the author replies to argues that after a $100 million raise, its cash could earn $4 million a year and end dilution. x.com x.com x.comÂ
Sidus Space has great technology but looks too early to own, with better entry points likely ahead. Shifting from manufacturer to a high-margin space data business takes time, hardware iterations and capital. 2026 guidance targets $9 million in revenue after $3.4 million in 2025, and the first two quarters of growth should materialize before buying. Cash is $43.2 million with no term debt, but a $500 million shelf registration creates a dilution overhang. x.comÂ
Sidus Space keeps diluting shareholders. It announced a $58.5M direct offering of 13.45M shares at $4.35, with ThinkEquity as placement agent and proceeds going to working capital and general corporate purposes. x.comÂ
Sidus Space is a 2026 stock hiding in plain sight: it does real satellite manufacturing and mission operations at scale rather than launches, and it is a direct play on the SpaceX IPO ecosystem. The stocks nobody talks about are the ones that make investors rich. x.comÂ
Sidus Space's $58.5 million raise at $4.35 a share, about 27% below the $5.95 it traded at days earlier, is a classic dilutive raise into a momentum pump that destroys per-share value. It adds 13.45 million shares to a company with $3.4 million of 2025 revenue, down 28%, and a $29.5 million net loss, and the proceeds simply fund runway. The bearish signals after the pump point to FOMO buyers serving as exit liquidity. x.com x.comÂ
Other space stocks look less attractive as liquidity concentrates in SpaceX. StonkChris expects most to face a tougher long-term outlook, though some may still win; the visible flow of liquidity into one name supports that concern. x.comÂ
Sidus Space gained access to the Missile Defense Agency's SHIELD IDIQ pool, a potential opportunity of about $151 billion over the program's life, though it grants only the right to bid on task orders rather than guaranteed revenue. The chart looks great as long as $3.36 holds, with an 80 million share float. x.comÂ
RS Technologies' asset discount persists amid high management ownership, no activist and no real investor interest. Those are the reasons given for why it trades so cheaply despite its Chinese holding. x.comÂ
Space names such as Spire Global, Sidus Space and Satellogic are getting an upward re-rating from sector-wide capital flows ahead of the SpaceX IPO. Spire is debt-free with plenty of cash after selling its maritime tracking business for a $154M gain, and it partners with NVIDIA on rapid weather forecasting models. Sidus and Satellogic are more speculative, and space as a whole is inherently riskier. x.com x.comÂ
The selloff in smaller space stocks after SpaceX's IPO is an opportunity: it was mechanical rotation into the new benchmark, not a rerating, as Rocket Lab was sold the week it joined the Nasdaq 100. Satellites bill monthly for years while rockets get paid once; AST SpaceMobile stands out with approval and launch cadence. SpaceX is the core holding, Rocket Lab's Neutron the second-mover bet; Firefly, Virgin Galactic and Momentus are lottery tickets or survival cases. Suppliers are ballast. x.com … Show more
Sidus Space is expanding its agreement with Lonestar Data to develop an additional data storage payload, and the market is under-reacting to the good news, a reaction that will likely come later in the day or week. Daily and weekly charts remain intact. x.comÂ
