Why Virgin Galactic Stock Keeps Falling
For the second day in a row -- and the sixth session out of the last eight -- shares of Virgin Galactic (NYSE: SPCE) are heading lower on Friday, down by 7.3% as of 1:40 p.m. ET.
That's kind of a surprise given that this week was a pretty great week for Virgin Galactic on the news front. The company finally -- after years of waiting -- launched a revenue-generating commercial space tourism flight, and brought all three of its passengers back home safe and sound.
In its press release announcing the success of said spaceflight -- dubbed "Galactic 01" -- Virgin Galactic also confirmed that it's on track to launch "Galactic 02" in August, and then proceed to monthly launches thereafter, using its VMS Eve mothership and VSS Unity spaceplane.
