Rocket Lab drops 11.3% as its string of higher lows breaks down

August 28, 2026

Our view last week

After last week's bounce attempt into resistance, Rocket Lab drops 9.6% and closes the week with 92% of volume on the sell side, the sharpest seller dominance of the past four weeks. The weekly picture stays bearish with several warning flags stacked together: contracting volume, fading candle-body conviction, and a widening distribution phase. On the daily chart, though, price keeps tracing a sequence of higher lows between the 58 and 78 areas, the level worth watching in the coming sessions.

This week's summary

Rocket Lab stock drops 11.3% this week, its second double-digit plunge in a row, breaking down the sequence of higher lows it had built on the daily chart between the 72 and 78 areas: a fresh 7-day low now sits in the 63 area. The Sell signal has been under management since week 13, with the short above 41% in profit. Sellers control 88% of volume and money flow keeps sinking deeper negative — the downside pressure isn't easing.
