At around 11 to 12 per share, I think the growth that's already visible in the business is enough to justify the current stock price. You're getting a company with exposure to two industries that could see substantial spending growth over the next decade, defense autonomy and space infrastructure, while still having some very large optional opportunities on top of that. So, my final rating for Redwire is a moderate buy.

Luke Lango is back with another massive stock prediction. This time he says Elon Musk is building toward a much bigger vision involving SpaceX, Tesla, AI, robotics, and even data setters in space. And Lango claims he found a tiny stock that could 10x as a result. But as usual, he wants money for the stock pick, but that's where I come in. I sat down and watched his hourlong presentation, was able to figure out the stock based on the clues in the presentation. In this video, I'm going to reveal it completely free and tell you whether or not I think this stock is a buy. But before we do anything, let's look at Luke Lango's recent track record to see if he's worth listening to. One of his biggest recent winners was Taiwan Semiconductor. That stock has more than tripled after his recommendation. He also pitched Palanteer. That one worked out well and climbed roughly 50%. Then there was Meta Platforms. This was a solid call and the stock moved nicely higher afterwards, but he's also had some major misses. Mobile Eye has been one of the worst. The stock has lost nearly 3/4 of its value since the pitch. He also recommended Enovix. That one has been hit hard and is down well over 50%. And finally, there was Axon Enterprise. That stock has also struggled and is down around a third since the recommendation. So overall, Luke Lango's record is very mixed. He's had some major winners, but he's also had a few stocks absolutely collapse. Now, let's quickly go through this presentation and figure out the stock. Luke Lango's latest presentation is built around a massive prediction involving Elon Musk. He believes Musk is moving towards combining SpaceX, Tesla, XAI, and the rest of his technology empire into one interconnected ecosystem, something Lango calls expanse. But the part we care about today is SpaceX. Lango believes Spac X's next major opportunity could be putting enormous AI data centers into orbit powered almost entirely by solar energy. And rather than betting directly on SpaceX, he says there's a much smaller public company that could benefit from supplying critical hardware for his buildout. And according to Lango, this tiny space stock could 10x. And lucky for us, Luke left us plenty of clues to figure out the stock. And his first clue is simply that this is a small publicly traded company supplying hardware to the aerospace and space industry. Obviously, that's not enough to identify it yet, so we need to keep digging. Lango then tells us this isn't simply a company hoping to eventually participate in the space economy. Its hardware has already been used on major government space programs. More specifically, technology from this company was on board NASA's Orion spacecraft for the Aremis 2 mission. That cuts our pool dramatically. Instead of dozens of speculative space companies, we're probably down to less than 10 realistic candidates. Established suppliers are actually trusted enough to put hardware on a crude NASA spacecraft. But we can narrow it down further. Lango says this company has also delivered multiple payloads to the ISS space station. Now, we're looking for something fairly specific. A publicly traded aerospace supplier with hardware connected to Artemis 2 that also has a real operating history aboard the ISS. At this point, we're down to about a handful of companies. But there's one clue that takes us all the way there. The company doesn't just make generic spacecraft components. One of its specialties is advanced solar array technology. And that's extremely important to Lango's pitch because his entire thesis revolves around SpaceX potentially building huge AI computing infrastructure in orbit. Those systems would need enormous amounts of electricity. And in space, the obvious source is solar power. And then finally, Luke gives us one last clue that really seals the deal on figuring out this company. He says this company's stock has recently exploded 181% in only 3 weeks following an earnings report. And there's only one company that fits all these clues. I'm going to reveal the stock in 15 seconds, but before I do, I want to tell you about my free report on the top 10 stocks to buy and hold right now. These are companies I believe have the best mix of strong long-term potential and growth. When you're done watching, click the link in the description, enter your email, and I'll send it right to your inbox. The stock being pitched here is Redwire, ticker RDW. If you appreciate me figuring out this stock for you and revealing it free, make sure to drop a like. Also, figuring out the stock is only half the battle. Now, we have to figure out if this stock is worth buying. And to do that, we're going to first look at what this company does. And then after, I'll give you a rating and actually tell you whether or not I think the stock is a buy. In plain English, Redwire is basically a picks and shovels company for the space industry. It doesn't build rockets or try to compete with SpaceX. Instead, it builds many of the critical systems that spacecraft need to actually function. That includes solar arrays that generate power in space, sensors and avionics that help spacecrafts navigate, docking systems, spacecraft structures, microgravity research equipment, and other infrastructure. And after acquiring Edge Autonomy, Redwire is no longer purely a space company either. It now is a sizable defense business building autonomous drones and related military technology. And that's where I think we need the first reality check on Luke's pitch. He makes Redwire sound almost like a direct play on SpaceX building giant AI data centers in orbit, but as of now, I haven't found a disclosed contract where Redwire is supplying SpaceX with solar arrays for orbital AI data centers. Now, Redwire does have a relationship with SpaceX. Its Space MD subsidiary recently signed an agreement to fly pharmaceutical research equipment aboard SpaceX's Starfall spacecraft in 2028. But that's a completely different business from powering giant AI data centers in orbit. But there's another important detail. Redwire's recent growth isn't being driven entirely by its traditional space business. In the latest quarter, revenue reached about 117 million, but a large portion of that growth came from the newer defense businesses following the Edge Autonomy acquisition. The company now has about a $542 million backlog, and management expects 450 million to 500 million in revenue for 2026. At a roughly $11.50 per share, Red Wire is valued at around 2.9 billion or roughly six times expected 2026 sales. So, this isn't just some tiny company waiting on SpaceX to give it a contract. It's already a sizable space and defense company with real technology, real customers, and a meaningful valuation. The question now is whether Red Wire's existing business is strong enough to justify that valuation, even if the huge SpaceX opportunity Lango is imagining never happens. And that's what we're going to figure out in this section, where I'll tell you whether or not this stock is a buy. To figure out if it's a buy, let's start with Luke Lango's headline claim that Redwire could potentially make you 10 times your money. Because at today's price, that's a much bigger claim than it sounds. Redwire is already worth roughly $3 billion. So a 10x from here means we're talking about a roughly $30 billion company. Management expects somewhere around $450 million to 500 million in revenue this year. So, if Red Wire were still valued at roughly the same sales multiple it gets today, getting anywhere close to that 30 billion valuation would eventually require something like 5 billion in annual revenue. In other words, this means a single SpaceX contract is not going to make this company worth 10x. Red Wire would have to become a dramatically larger company. Now, I do think there's a legitimate path towards that growth. Redwire isn't some pre-revenue space startup built around one futuristic idea. It already supplies real technology to NASA, defense customers, and commercial space programs. Its backlog is now above 550 million, which gives the company a pretty substantial amount of contracted future work. And I actually think the acquisition of Edge Autonomy makes the story stronger. Redwire is no longer completely dependent on the commercial space market. It now has a meaningful defense technology business focused on autonomous aircraft, surveillance, and military systems. This gives Redwire two growth markets at the same time. You have space infrastructure on one side and autonomous defense technology on the other. Then you have the longerterm opportunities that are much harder to put a number on today. Artemis, national security space programs, commercial space stations, microgravity manufacturing, large power systems in orbit, and potentially even orbital computing. If just a few of those markets become substantially larger over the next decade, Redwire already has technology positioned in some very valuable parts of the supply chain. And this is why I don't completely dismiss Luke Lango's claims. The idea that future spacecraft or orbital computing systems are going to require enormous amounts of power makes sense. And Redwire has genuine expertise in deployable solar arrays. Where I disagree with Luke is he's treating this like an opportunity that is already happening right now. I haven't seen evidence that Redwire has some giant SpaceX solar array contract for orbital AI data centers. This part is still just speculation and there are some other things I would watch closely. A lot of Redwire's recent revenue growth is coming from the edge autonomy acquisition. The core space business itself hasn't suddenly started exploding. So going forward, I want to see organic growth, not simply growth created by buying another company. I also want to see margins improve. Redwire can keep winning impressive contracts, but eventually those contracts have to translate into consistent profits and cash flow. This is what happens for Luke's thesis to work. Redwire needs to successfully integrate edge autonomy and turn defense into a durable second growth engine. Its space segment needs to return to meaningful growth and improve profitability. The company's backlog needs to steadily convert into revenue. And over the longer term, Redwire needs to keep winning meaningful roles in the next generation space programs. If orbital data centers become real, that's potentially enormous upside. But I don't think you need that specific prediction to come true for Redwire to work as an investment. And that's what I actually like about this company. At around 11 to 12 per share, I think the growth that's already visible in the business is enough to justify the current stock price. You're getting a company with exposure to two industries that could see substantial spending growth over the next decade, defense autonomy and space infrastructure, while still having some very large optional opportunities on top of that. So, my final rating for Redwire is a moderate buy. I'm not buying it because I believe Luke Lango's 10X prediction is inevitable, and I'm definitely not assuming some enormous SpaceX contract is right around the corner. I'm buying the underlying growth story at today's valuation. However, I expect this to be very volatile and especially more volatile than traditional large cap stocks. Red Wire is still relatively small. It's operating in industries where contracts can be lumpy, expectations can change quickly, and the stock can move dramatically in either direction. So, this is not a stock I'd build my entire portfolio around. But for investors comfortable with the added volatility and looking for exposure to the growth of space and autonomous defense technology, I think Red Wire is interesting enough at the current price to earn a moderate buy. And before you go, don't forget to grab my free report on the top 10 stocks to buy and hold right now.
