Why the 24% Virgin Galactic Stock Jump Is Only the Beginning

Virgin Galactic (NYSE: SPCE) successfully flew to space for the first time since 2019 on May 22 (Saturday).

As a result, the stock jumped 24% the following Monday.

But Virgin Galactic stock has much higher to go in a space industry poised to reach $1 trillion by 2040, according to Morgan Stanley.

That's nearly triple its 2020 value of $350 billion.

Virgin Galactic will almost certainly share in that growth.

The successful test flight represents a giant leap forward for the company's plans to lead human spaceflight for individuals and researchers.

Here's what you should know about this space stock meanwhile.
