Sidus Space soars on Trumps Moon plans, but investors bewareSidus Space, a microcap company with a market cap of $94 million, has seen its shares skyrocket fourfold in the past month due to President Trumps renewed push for American leadership in space. The company designs satellites, manufactures hardware, and provides AI-driven data services for space missions.Trumps executive order for space superiority and a Moon landing by 2028 led to a 35% jump in Sidus Space shares on December 19th. The stock nearly doubled on December 22nd after the company landed a spot on the Missile Defense Agencys massive Shield program contract, worth up to $151 billion over time.The buzz has spread across the sector, with NASAs new administrator Jared Isaacman predicting an orbital economy, including data centers and mining helium-three for future fusion power. Sidus plays a role as a subcontractor on NASA spacesuit projects and lunar rovers, but its own finances show challenges, with third-quarter revenue at just $1.3 million and widening losses.The company raised fresh capital to bolster its cash position and completed tests on its advanced satellite tech, like the LizzieSat and FeatherEdge systems. However, one analyst rates Sidus a strong buy with a $10 price target, implying huge upside, but the recent rally looks fueled more by speculation than solid revenue gains. Investors should tread carefully, as these contracts dont guarantee immediate cash flow in a still-maturing space race. Checkout Solipillow.com
