This recap reflects the discussion at the time of the appearance. The stock ideas and market conditions are historical.
I joined Charles Payne on Making Money to discuss space stocks, potential short squeezes, options trades, and entry points in several growth names. Rocket Lab (RKLB) and AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) were part of the short-squeeze conversation.
Which stocks were in the discussion?
The segment also covered IREN, Cipher Mining (CIFR), Galaxy Digital (GLXY), IonQ (IONQ), Astera Labs (ALAB), and Nebius (NBIS). These were the names on that January discussion’s watchlist; inclusion here does not establish a current position or a current entry price.
From a stock idea to a trading plan
A list of tickers is the starting point. The next question is what makes an entry worthwhile: the chart pattern, the catalyst, and the point where the setup would stop making sense. The recording provides the original context for the ideas Charles and I discussed.
For a fuller explanation of my approach, read my newsletter about short squeezes and options. That later educational article explains how I evaluate these opportunities beyond a short television segment.
