The Smartest Way to Invest $5,000 in a Trillion-Dollar Stock Over Private Space Rivals

Yahoo Finance ·

The potential of the space industry can be attractive to many retail investors. The problem, though, is that the flashiest names in space, like Jeff Bezos's Blue Origin and a wave of rocket and satellite start-ups, share one big flaw for ordinary investors: They are privately held. You cannot buy their shares unless you're an insider, a venture capitalist, or a deep-pocketed accredited investor with the right connections. Moreover, those shares are illiquid, and each is an all-or-nothing bet on a relatively unproven venture. Chasing them is mostly wishful thinking for the average retail investor. However, if you have $5,000 to put to work and you want exposure to the space sector, I would suggest going in a different direction. The smartest move may be to buy a less-hyped trillion-dollar company whose chips quietly power nearly every satellite, rocket, and missile flying today: Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ( TSM -2.98% ) .
