Rocket Lab USA (RKLB) shares have surged on strong Q1 2026 results released May 7, with revenue of $200.4 million beating consensus estimates of $189.7 million and gross margins reaching 38.2 percent amid a $2.2 billion backlog that more than doubled year over year. The company also secured its largest launch contract to date, bolstering defense and hypersonics exposure as the U.S. Space Force and allied programs accelerate spending. After hitting an all-time high near $133 in mid-May, shares pulled back about 6 percent on May 15 to close at $124.77 amid broader market rotation, yet remain up over 25 percent for the month on elevated trading volume. For the week of May 18, trader focus centers on whether momentum from the earnings beat and Neutron development updates can sustain levels above recent highs or trigger further volatility tied to launch cadence and sector risk appetite.

Only prices achieved during the regular trading hours of the primary exchange on which the listed security trades (typically 9:30 AM – 4:00 PM ET) will be considered. Prices occurring during pre-market or after-hours trading will not qualify.
Prices will be used exactly as published by Pyth, without rounding.
In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, or similar corporate action affecting the listed company during the listed time frame, this market will resolve based on split-adjusted prices as displayed on Pyth.
The target price will be adjusted proportionally to reflect any stock splits. Resolution will be based on the historical price data as shown on Pyth after any adjustments have been applied.
The resolution source for this market is Pyth — specifically, the Rocket Lab USA, Inc. (RKLB) "High" prices available at https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.RKLB%2FUSD, with the chart settings configured for 1-minute candles.
Historical 1-minute candles may be accessed by appending a Unix timestamp (seconds) to the Pyth chart URL using the "t=" parameter. Any timestamp within the listed market time frame may be used to view the relevant candle data (e.g., https://pythdata.app/explore/Equity.US.RKLB%2FUSD?t=1773432000)
If the relevant Pyth data is unavailable due to a system outage, data failure, or other technical disruption that prevents verification of the required 1-minute candle data, the official daily high price published by the primary exchange on which the listed security trades will be used to determine whether the listed price was reached during the applicable trading session.
