SpaceX is reported to have announced third-quarter results this year with revenue exceeding market expectations and a return to operating profit, and Sphere and HVM, which are cited as SpaceX-related stocks in the domestic market, are rising together. Aerospace-related stocks and some investment-related stocks are also mostly trending higher.

◆ Revenue Up 161%... Operating Profit Turns to Black

SpaceX's reported third-quarter revenue was $14.58 billion, up 161% from the same period last year. This is $1.86 billion above the market forecast of $12.72 billion.

Operating profit was presented at $2.791 billion, turning to profit compared to both the same period last year and the previous quarter. The return to operating profitability alongside revenue growth is the notable point of these results.

◆ Sphere Up 5.54%, HVM Up 3.59%

According to the morning stock prices on the 21st, Sphere is trading at 22,850 won, up 1,200 won (5.54%) from the previous trading day. It started trading at 23,500 won and rose as high as 23,600 won during the session, with a low of 22,300 won. Trading volume was recorded at 662,955 shares.

HVM rose 2,300 won (3.59%) to 66,400 won. It opened at 70,500 won, climbed as high as 76,800 won intraday, and is now trading at 66,400 won, with an intraday low of 61,500 won. Trading volume is 421,343 shares. The gap between the intraday high and low reached 15,300 won.

In the domestic market, the stock price movements of the two companies, known for their participation in the SpaceX supply chain, were particularly notable.

◆ Kenkoa Aerospace and Other Aerospace Stocks Also Strong

Kenkoa Aerospace is trading at 10,410 won, up 440 won (4.41%) from the previous trading day. It rose as high as 11,250 won intraday, with a trading volume of 599,072 shares.

YJ Link is up 100 won (3.03%) at 3,400 won, and SensorView is up 32 won (2.05%) at 1,591 won. Nanoteam rose 30 won (0.54%) to 5,600 won, and Innox Advanced Materials climbed 160 won (0.84%) to 19,200 won.

◆ Mirae Asset Securities Up 4.62%... SeAH Besteel Holdings Declines

Investment-related stocks also rose. Mirae Asset Securities is trading at 26,050 won, up 1,150 won (4.62%) from the previous trading day. The intraday high was 26,650 won, the low 25,300 won, and trading volume was 1,387,434 shares.

Mirae Asset Venture Investment rose 510 won (3.54%) to 14,910 won. It climbed as high as 16,200 won intraday, with a trading volume of 241,087 shares.

Aju IB Investment is up 70 won (2.46%) at 2,910 won. The intraday high was 3,300 won, the low 2,855 won, and trading volume was recorded at 5,185,362 shares.

On the other hand, SeAH Besteel Holdings is trading at 34,700 won, down 50 won (0.14%) from the previous trading day. It rose as high as 37,100 won intraday, but its current price is below the previous day's close.

◆ "Direct Link to Improved Earnings of Related Stocks Hard to Confirm"

As SpaceX's third-quarter results announcement and the rise in domestic related stocks' prices occurred at the same time, market attention is focused on them. However, the scale of each company's supply to SpaceX and its revenue contribution were not confirmed in this data. It is difficult to conclude that SpaceX's increased performance directly translates into improved earnings for these companies merely because they are classified as related stocks.

In particular, while both Sphere and HVM are rising, their intraday price fluctuations differ. Sphere is trading 750 won below its intraday high, while HVM is trading 10,400 won below its high.

As the SpaceX performance figures presented this time draw attention alongside the stock price trends of domestic related stocks, each company's actual supply performance and revenue reflection are expected to become important points of confirmation going forward.
