We recently published 10 Big Names Stumbling Hard. Redwire Corporation (NYSE:RDW) was one of the worst performers on Monday.

Redwire Corporation (NYSE:RDW) dropped its share prices by 12.46 percent on Monday as investors resorted to profit-taking after jumping to a five-month high in the previous session.

Last Friday, the stock climbed to as high as $13.74—a level it last touched in August 2025—as investors took heart from President Donald Trump’s announcement of progress in the US government’s Golden Dome ambitions.

The Golden Dome, initially known as the Iron Dome of America, is an initiative of the Trump administration that aims to combine a range of capabilities to create a “system of systems” to protect the United States from “aerial attacks from any foe.”
