Look, I know what you're thinking. "Space stocks? Really? Didn't we already do this dance in 2021 when Virgin Galactic crashed harder than a SpaceX prototype?" Fair point. But hear me out – 2026 might actually be different. And by different, I mean we've got three massive catalysts lining up like planets during a rare alignment, except instead of cosmic wonder, we're talking about potential stock rockets. The Government Actually Wants This to Work First up: Uncle Sam just signed a "Space Superiority" ...

So apparently, Trump really, really wants Greenland. And when I say really, I mean "threatening-to-slap-tariffs-on-half-of-Europe" really. The market's response? A collective "oh crap, he's not kidding this time." Tuesday was what you might call a "Sell America" day, with the Dow dropping over 700 points faster than you can say "Danish pastry."

When Markets Have Seasons (And Why Your Portfolio Probably Doesn’t Know It)

Remember when your mom told you everything happens for a reason? Turns out she was onto something – at least when it comes to the stock market. Here's a wild story that'll make you rethink everything: Back in 1854, people in London were dropping dead from cholera faster than you could say "diversified portfolio."
