Rocket Lab Corp (NASDAQ:RKLB) was last seen up 0.4% to trade at $71.16 at last glance. The company is gearing up to announce fourth-quarter results after the close Thursday, Feb. 26.
RKLB's post-earnings history is all over the place, considering the satellite giant finished higher the day after earnings four times in the last eight reports. The shares averaged a 7.8% move in the last two years, but the options pits are pricing in a much larger-than-usual 15.8% swing this time around, regardless of direction.
The security hit a Jan. 16, record high of $99.58 before pulling back and finding support at the $64 level. While today's move has shares on track for a second-straight loss, they are still up more than 380% from April lows.
RKLB has tended to outperform traders' volatility expectations during the past year, per its elevated Schaeffer's Volatility Scorecard (SVS) of 84 out of 100.
