SpaceX (SPCX) just filed. Here are the 7 stocks I'm buying instead. (Ad)

SpaceX has officially filed for what could be the biggest IPO in history - a $1.5 trillion valuation with a June listing. But at that price, retail investors are paying for perfection on day one, overallocated to institutions before most traders get a chance. The real opportunity may lie in 7 publicly traded space stocks already growing around SpaceX. One competes directly on launches. Another holds a monopoly on U.S. rocket engines. A third just turned profitable with a $900M backlog - and most traders have never heard of it.tc pixel
