Alphabet, Berkshire Hathaway, and Boeing are the three Space stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Space stocks are shares of publicly traded companies whose core businesses involve the space industry—ranging from satellite and launch‐vehicle manufacturers to space‐tourism operators and in-orbit services providers. By investing in these equities, shareholders gain exposure to a rapidly growing commercial and government‐driven space economy that spans earth‐observation, broadband communications, exploration missions and emerging technologies such as in-space manufacturing. As demand for space‐based infrastructure and services continues to rise, space stocks have become a thematic way for investors to participate in the sector’s long-term growth. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Space stocks within the last several days.
