Space Score · weekly edition 2026-W40

Biggest movers, week of Sep 28, 2026

The largest changes in the SpaceNexus Space Score since Sep 23, with the inputs behind each one. Every explanation is computed from the stored readings: no AI, no editorial judgement. How the score works.

This is the first weekly edition under methodology v2, so there is no earlier edition to compare with. Movement is measured against the earliest daily reading under the same methodology, taken Sep 23, 2026. That is 5 days, not a calendar week.

This edition: inputs measured Sep 28, 2026 (02:10 UTC), methodology v2, 161 companies ranked. Of 154 ranked in both readings, 43 rose, 104 fell and 7 did not change.
