Rocket Lab to join the Nasdaq-100 index on June 22
Rocket Lab said on June 12 it will be added to the Nasdaq-100 Index before the market open on Monday, June 22, joining the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq. Founder and CEO Sir Peter Beck called the inclusion a reflection of the company's journey 'from a small company with big ambitions to a global space leader,' capping a 2026 rally that has included its first quarter with revenue above $200 million and a five-launch Neutron deal ahead of the rocket's late-2026 debut. The move makes Rocket Lab one of only a handful of pure-play space companies in a major U.S. large-cap index.
