Space Stock Watch: Rocket Lab Joins Russell 1000, NASA And Netflix Announce Streaming Deal

Shares of Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PL#NYSE">PL</a>) are soaring Tuesday morning after the satellite imaging company announced a series of major recent contract wins with global defense and intelligence agencies.
What To Know: The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46193767/planet-secures-four-major-wins-for-ai-enabled-solutions-in-the-defense-and-intelligence-sector">agreements</a> include a €240 million contract funded by Germany, which incorporates a multi-year, eight-figure annual renewal for data and AI services.
In the U.S., the Defense Innovation Unit expanded its contract with Planet to provide AI-driven alerts for the Indo-Pacific Command. The company also <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/07/b46193767/planet-secures-four-major-wins-for-ai-enabled-solutions-in-the-defense-and-intelligence-sector">secured</a> a seven-figure expansion with the U.S. Navy for Pacific maritime surveillance and a separate seven-figure deal with NATO for persistent monitoring.
These wins follow Planet&#8217;s recent earnings call where leadership <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/06/b45780259/planet-reports-financial-results-for-first-quarter-of-fiscal-year-2026">highlighted</a> a strategic shift toward AI-enabled products. CEO Will Marshall noted that the &#8220;changing geopolitical landscape&#8221; is driving unprecedented interest. Analyst Ratings: In recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/PL/analyst-ratings">analyst updates</a>, sentiment on Planet Labs has been mixed. On June 30, Goldman Sachs shifted its stance, downgrading the stock from Buy to Neutral and setting a price target of $4.60. This move suggests a more cautious outlook on the company&#8217;s near-term performance. 
In contrast, on June 24, Cantor Fitzgerald maintained its Overweight rating, viewing the stock favorably with a price target range of $6.30 to $8.50. Earlier in the month, on June 6, both Citigroup and Wedbush reiterated their positive outlooks, maintaining Buy and Outperform ratings, respectively, with price targets in the $5 to $7 range.
Price Action: According to data from <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174">Benzinga Pro</a>, PL shares are trading higher by 4.58% to $6.38 Tuesday morning. The stock has a 52-week high of $7.72 and a 52-week low of $1.73.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How To Buy PL Stock</h2>
Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Planet Labs&#8217; case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.

<li>Four New Significant AI-enabled Solution Contracts Awarded in June</li>

</ul>
Planet Labs PBC (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PL#NYSE">PL</a>), a leading provider of daily data and insights about change on Earth, today announced that following its June 4, 2025 earnings announcement, it has secured four major awards for its new AI-enabled solutions with customers in the Defense &amp; Intelligence sector. These wins build on the global momentum discussed on Planet's last earnings call.
These contracts support enhanced situational awareness and informed decision-making for government customers in the U.S. and internationally. They underscore the growing demand for Planet's modern approach to national security, leveraging its proprietary satellite data and advanced artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities.
Among the key agreements being highlighted:
<ul>
<li>As announced today in a <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.businesswire.com%2Fnews%2Fhome%2F20250701149801%2Fen&amp;esheet=54284502&amp;newsitemid=20250630563514&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=separate+press+release&amp;index=1&amp;md5=a6750252008fa47c2eac4196de369ed3">separate press release</a>, Planet won a €240 million contract, funded by Germany, one component of which is a multi-year contract renewal with an 8-figure annual value for PlanetScope data and AI-enabled solutions.</li>
<li>In addition, Planet's existing Hybrid Space Architecture (HSA) contract with the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU), part of the U.S. Department of Defense, was recently expanded in support of the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (INDOPACOM). It will provide AI-enabled solutions focused on delivering vital indications and warnings for national security. As the U.S. government modernizes its defense capabilities, Planet's broad area data and AI advancements are designed to enable customers to monitor entire countries or regions for critical changes and threats.</li>
<li>Planet signed a seven-figure expansion with the U.S. Navy to provide Maritime Domain Awareness over the Pacific Ocean region.</li>
<li>Finally, as <a href="https://cts.businesswire.com/ct/CT?id=smartlink&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.businesswire.com%2Fnews%2Fhome%2F20250612808959%2Fen%2FNATO-Selects-Planet-for-Landmark-Seven-Figure-Contract-for-Advanced-Daily-Monitoring-and-Early-Warning-Capabilities&amp;esheet=54284502&amp;newsitemid=20250630563514&amp;lan=en-US&amp;anchor=announced+on+June+12%2C+2025&amp;index=2&amp;md5=39cc78c769d6a7cf448ce93792a7278d">announced on June 12, 2025</a>, Planet was selected by NATO for a seven-figure contract to deliver persistent space-based surveillance, enhanced indications and warnings, and critical Maritime Domain Awareness functions.</li>
</ul>
These wins build on the momentum highlighted in Planet's other recent announcements, which include another 8-figure annual contract value win with a European defense and intelligence customer for PlanetScope and Maritime Domain Awareness (MDA) products, as announced on Planet's prior earnings call.
Additionally, Planet was recently awarded a contract option by the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) as part of the Electro-Optical Commercial Layer (EOCL) program. This extends Planet's provision of daily monitoring and high-resolution tasking data, maintaining its prior EOCL performance level from June through October 2025.

What To Know: Planet Labs announced that it was selected for a new seven-figure contract with NATO to deliver advanced daily monitoring and intelligence capabilities across strategic areas of interest.&nbsp;Planet Labs shares initially surged on the news before pulling back.

Besides going to a brokerage platform to purchase a share &#8211; or fractional share &#8211; of stock, you can also gain access to shares either by buying an exchange traded fund (ETF) that holds the stock itself, or by allocating yourself to a strategy in your 401(k) that would seek to acquire shares in a mutual fund or other instrument. 
For example, in Planet Labs (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PL#NYSE">PL</a>)'s case, it is in the Industrials sector. An ETF will likely hold shares in many liquid and large companies that help track that sector, allowing an investor to gain exposure to the trends within that segment.

Benzinga examined the prospects for <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
U.S. markets closed higher this week, buoyed by a stronger-than-expected May jobs report. The economy added 139,000 jobs, surpassing forecasts and easing recession fears. The S&amp;P 500 rose 1.5%, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 1.2%, and the Nasdaq Composite climbed 2.2%. The Russell 2000 outperformed with a 3.2% increase, reflecting optimism in domestic small-cap stocks. The 10-year Treasury yield rose to 4.51%, as investors moved away from bonds amid improving economic sentiment.
Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) experienced significant volatility due to the public feud between CEO Elon Musk and President Donald Trump. After Musk criticized Trump's spending policies, Tesla's stock plunged 14%, erasing $150 billion in market value. However, the stock rebounded 3.7% on Friday as tensions appeared to ease. Despite the rebound, Tesla remains down 27% for the year. investopedia.com
Trump celebrated the strong jobs data but renewed pressure on the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, citing concerns over borrowing costs. The Fed has maintained current rates, citing inflation concerns tied to trade policies. Meanwhile, upcoming U.S.-China trade talks in London are anticipated, with investors hopeful for progress that could further stabilize markets.

Planet Labs (PL) Shares Surge Over 50% Following Q1 Beat: What's Going On?

All three major U.S. indices were in the green in Thursday&#8217;s midday trading, reversing earlier losses after President Donald Trump said that he held a &#8220;very good phone call&#8221; with China&#8217;s President Xi Jinping and more trade talks with Beijing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45787817/us-stocks-likely-to-open-on-a-mixed-note-after-dow-snaps-four-day-run-powell-and-the-fed-are-doing-the-right-thing-holding-rates-says-expert">will take place &#8220;shortly.&#8221;</a>
The S&amp;P 500 rose 0.42%, while the Nasdaq Composite gained about 0.7% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average was up 0.27%.

On Wednesday, a disappointing private sector payrolls report showed only 37,000 jobs were added in May, well below forecasts.
