Investors view Musk&#8217;s influence on Trump&#8217;s space policies as a potential catalyst for the industry. The previous Trump administration also created the newest branch of the military, Space Force, underlining the value Trump places on space technologies.&nbsp;
Cantor Fitzgerald analyst Andres Sheppard, also sees the Trump administration and Musk's potential influence on its policies as positive for the space industry.&nbsp;
"I think there's definitely a risk-on, post-Trump-win rally that's being reflected in this industry," Sheppard told CNBC.
"It's only going to continue to proliferate because of national security, because of the Artemis program to get the U.S. astronauts back on the moon, because of Elon [Musk]'s ambitious goals of getting to Mars," Sheppard added.&nbsp;
RocketLab's CEO Peter Beck recently expressed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/space/24/11/41961309/rocket-lab-ceo-touts-spacex-rival-status-trump-impact-on-space-as-stock-surges-almost-30">his optimism</a> about space policy under Trump‘s administration, citing its focus on space, national defense and efficient contracting.&nbsp;
"When space does well, Rocket Lab does well," he stated.
Another space stock, Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PL#NYSE">PL</a>) is up more than 34% over the past month. Investors can also monitor the broader space sector through the Procure Space ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UFO#NASDAQ">UFO</a>). 
"Space has been one of the best outperformers in the market this year for a handful of these names," Sheppard said.
Overall sentiment in the space sector remains bullish, with expectations of continued growth under a Trump administration and Musk's influence.&nbsp;

Ethereum's (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) recent underperformance is a buying opportunity, with traders pointing to several factors that an altcoin season is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/ethereum-eth-price-predictions">still to come</a>.
What Happened: Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez predicts ETH will outperform Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) in the current market cycle. 
Martinez highlighted several key factors for his optimism:
<ul>
<li>Investor Accumulation: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/what-is-ethereum-etf">Spot Ethereum ETFs</a> have shifted from distribution to accumulation, amassing over $147 million in ETH, while Ethereum whales have purchased $1.4 billion worth of ETH.</li>
<li>Price Targets: An ascending parallel channel suggests potential price levels of $4,000 (mid-boundary) and $6,000 (upper boundary). A bullish scenario, mirroring S&amp;P 500 patterns, even hints at a target of $10,000.</li>
<li>Critical Support Levels: Ethereum&#8217;s bullish outlook depends on holding two key support levels—$3,000, where 2.82 million addresses hold 6.14 million ETH, and $2,400, the lower boundary of the channel.</li>
<li>MVRV Momentum:  The MVRV Momentum indicator points to significant upside potential for Ethereum, signaling a breakout could be on the horizon. Martinez <a href="https://x.com/ali_charts/status/1859014179455463768">noted</a> that the indicator hasn't yet crossed above its 180-day moving average, despite recent price increases from $2,400 to $2,800, suggesting further upside for Ethereum.</li>
</ul>

Why It Matters: Ethereum&#8217;s potential rally aligns with its increasing institutional interest and whale accumulation. 
IntoTheBlock data shows transactions greater than $100,000 are up from 8,210 to 8,494 in a single day, while large transaction volume decreased by 15.8%. 
Exchanges netflows are down by 126.9%.
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin <a href="https://x.com/VitalikButerin/status/1859092196156469715">also</a> emphasized the importance of strong Layer-1 solutions for stability during tough times and the flexibility of Layer-2 solutions for growth periods.

In the current session, the stock is trading at $188.20, after a 1.45% increase. Over the past month, Interactive Brokers Gr Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IBKR#NASDAQ">IBKR</a>) stock increased by 27.32%, and in the past year, by 129.49%. With performance like this, long-term shareholders are optimistic but others are more likely to look into the price-to-earnings ratio to see if the stock might be overvalued.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732123820_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Interactive Brokers Gr P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Interactive Brokers Gr has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 31.56 of the Capital Markets industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2024/1732123820_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPAI#NASDAQ">SPAI</a>)&nbsp;shares surged on Wednesday after the company announced it secured a U.S. patent for its AI-driven <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b42086502/safe-pro-awarded-us-patent-for-disruptive-ai-drone-imagery-technology-a-groundbreaking-innovation-" rel="noreferrer noopener">SpotlightAI drone technology</a>.
SpotlightAI, powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), is a cloud-based platform that uses advanced machine learning to rapidly detect, GPS-locate, and map over 150 types of landmines and unexploded ordnance (UXO) in drone imagery.
This advanced technology enables efficient, accurate, and scalable mine detection, enhancing safety in hazardous environments.
The patent covers 21 claims for its &#8220;Systems and Methods for Detecting and Identifying Explosives,&#8221; valid until 2043.
This patent underscores the transformative potential of SpotlightAI in applications like humanitarian demining, agriculture, national defense, and reconstruction.
Additionally, the company has previously&nbsp;filed for global patent protection under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT), extending potential rights to 157 countries across multiple regions.
The SpotlightAI system is actively deployed in Ukraine, collaborating with humanitarian mine action organizations, including the UNDP and government entities.
Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro, said, &#8220;To date, our patented&nbsp;SpotlightAI technology has helped locate over 10,000 landmines and other explosives in Ukraine in support of humanitarian, agricultural and reconstruction efforts.&#8221;
&#8221;Our goal now is to further leverage our newly protected IP as we seek to collaborate with a broadened array of potential new partners and customers in commercial, humanitarian and national defense markets where our technology can support their critical missions.&#8220;
Yesterday, the company announced a projected 200%+ year-over-year revenue increase for the fourth quarter, driven by a record monthly <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/b42060777/safe-pro-expects-200-year-over-year-increase-in-fourth-quarter-revenue-driven-by-record-sales" rel="noreferrer noopener">revenue of over $650,000 in October.</a>
This growth is attributed to a surge in activity within its drone services business, primarily due to the increased demand for services following major hurricanes and storms that impacted the southeastern U.S.
Price Action: SPAI shares are up 25% at $2.875 at the last check Wednesday.
