The Starship&#8216;s many engines are isolated from each other, preventing the risk of one engine failure causing failure of all as in the case of the Soviet Union&#8217;s N1 rocket, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk said on Thursday.
What Happened: &#8220;If engine failures are isolated from each other and the primary airframe, then more engines &#x2A;increases&#x2A; reliability,&#8221; Musk said in a post on social media platform X. &#8220;The problem with N-1 was that a failure of any engine caused failure of all.&#8221;

&mdash; Elon Musk (@elonmusk) <a href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1859667589817041394?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 21, 2024</a></blockquote>
<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div>
</figure>
The Starship has often been compared to the Soviet N1 rocket owing to its large number of engines. Musk himself has admitted that the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/05/32566212/elon-musk-reacts-to-comparison-of-starship-with-doomed-rocket-that-knocked-soviet-union-out-of-moon">N1 is the closest comparable rocket to Starship</a>. However, the Starship has 33 engines on its Super Heavy booster, even more than the 30 engines on the Soviet N1&#8217;s first stage.
About N1: N1 was aimed at enabling crewed travel to the moon. However, all four attempts to launch failed and the program was suspended in 1974.
The Soviets carried out a clandestine launch of the N1 on July 3, 1969, which ended up in a colossal explosion. This effectively knocked out the Soviet Union from the Moon race just days before U.S. astronauts walked on the surface of the moon.
About Starship: Starship is SpaceX&#8217;s most ambitious launch vehicle aimed at taking humans back to the Moon and Earth&#8217;s neighboring planet Mars. 
The company has conducted six test flights of the vehicle thus far but without a payload. The last flight test took place earlier this week and NASA is looking forward to taking humans back to the surface of the Moon after a gap of over 50 years with the help of a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42108681/spacex-shows-off-conceptual-version-of-starship-which-will-help-humans-land-back-on-moon-in-over-50-yrs">custom version of Starship</a>.

Texas Governor&nbsp;Greg Abbott (R-Texas) has directed state agencies to cease investments in China and divest existing ones. This decision, announced in a letter dated Nov. 21, highlights security and financial risks associated with Chinese investments, 
What Happened: Abbott&#8217;s directive argues that this aggression could elevate the financial risks tied to Chinese investments. The governor&#8217;s letter explicitly bans Texas investing entities from making new investments in China.
Moreover, Abbott has instructed these entities to divest from any current Chinese investments at the earliest feasible opportunity. 
&#8220;Texas will defend and safeguard itself and our public treasury from any potential threat, including those posed by the CCP,&#8221; the statement read.

Why It Matters: The directive from Governor Abbott comes amid escalating U.S.-China tensions. Recently, the U.S. House of Representatives advanced two Republican bills aiming to reinstate the U.S. Justice Department's "China Initiative." This initiative seeks to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/09/40831428/house-gop-advances-bills-to-reinstate-justice-departments-china-initiative-despite-white-house-disap">curb espionage activities</a> targeting U.S. intellectual property and academic institutions. The bills were part of the House Republican's &#8220;China Week,&#8221; which saw over two dozen China-related legislative measures passed.
President-elect Donald Trump has proposed to impose 60% tariff on Chinese goods. Chinese President Xi Jinping recently <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42025284/xi-jinping-tells-joe-biden-china-is-ready-to-work-with-trump-as-tariff-threat-looms">expressed a willingness</a> to collaborate with the U.S. government, regardless of the administration in power. This statement was made during a meeting with President Joe Biden at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Lima. 
Meanwhile, ETFs that allow investment into China have dropped during the past one month. As of Nov. 22nd, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>) has dropped by 5.97% while iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>) fell by 5.13%.

The cloud security sector is thriving, given the rising cyber threat concerns, demand for the latest technologies, and solid segment spending. Thus, quality cloud security stocks CrowdStrike Holdings (CRWD), Zscaler (ZS), and Check Point Software Technologies (CHKP) could be solid watchlist additions. Read more... With the transition from traditional practices to the latest technologies, rapidly growing demand, and increasing security concerns, the growth prospects of the cloud security market seem bright and lucrative.
Given this backdrop, investors could consider fundamentally robust cloud security stocks CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CRWD/">CRWD</a>), Zscaler, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/ZS/">ZS</a>), and Check Point Software Technologies Ltd. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CHKP/">CHKP</a>) for substantial returns.
Amidst the rising concerns of cybersecurity, increasing incidents of cyber threats, and organizations prioritizing data protection through the latest technologies, the cloud security market is experiencing robust growth. Also, supporting trends like the adoption of multi- and hybrid cloud environments, integration of artificial intelligence (AI), and the Internet of Things (IoT) are fueling the market.
Gartner projects worldwide IT spending to rise 9.3% in 2025, where <a href="https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2024-10-23-gartner-forecasts-worldwide-it-spending-to-grow-nine-point-three-percent-in-2025">spending on software will increase by 14%</a> to $1.24 trillion, compared to an 11.7% rise in 2024, indicating robust trends. Further, a recent survey by Statista revealed that nearly 60% of organizations expect their <a href="https://www.statista.com/statistics/1536053/cloud-security-budget-trends-worldwide/">cloud security budget</a> to increase strongly in the next 12 months.
Rising dependency on cloud security services among organizations has grown significantly owing to its reliability, easy access, and effective risk mitigation solutions. With this, the cloud security software market is expected to reach around $102.59 billion by 2029, expanding at a notable <a href="https://www.mordorintelligence.com/industry-reports/global-cloud-security-software-market-industry">CAGR of 17.6%</a> driven by increasing adoption and efficiency.
Given the industry's robust outlook, let's examine the fundamentals of the three <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/software-security/">Software - Security</a> stock picks, starting with the third choice.
Stock #3: CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CRWD/">CRWD</a>)
CRWD is a global cybersecurity solutions provider. The company's unified platform offers cloud-delivered protection of endpoints, cloud workloads, identity, and data. It provides corporate endpoint and cloud workload security, managed security, security, and vulnerability management.
On November 7, CRWD expanded its distribution partnership with Ignition Technology, bringing the CrowdStrike Falcon&#xAE; cybersecurity platform to Ignition's partner base in Ireland. After success in the UK and Nordics, the companies continued their partnership to drive cybersecurity transformation in Ireland and stop breaches with unified AI-native protection across the enterprise.
On the same date, CRWD launched CrowdStrike AI Red Team Services, reinstating its leadership in protecting the infrastructure, systems, and models driving the AI revolution. With CRWD's world-class threat intelligence and elite expertise, these specialized services proactively identify and help mitigate vulnerabilities in AI systems.
Amid new threats targeting AI applications, CRWD's elite services team will aid many customers and help organizations assess their AI security posture to defend against model tampering, data poisoning, and other AI-based threats.
Also, on November 6, CRWD announced the acquisition of Adaptive Shield, a leader in SaaS Security. With this acquisition, CRWD will become the only cybersecurity vendor to provide unified, end-to-end protection against identity-based attacks across the entire modern cloud ecosystem.
The acquisition will position it as the leading provider of comprehensive protection across complex hybrid environments.
For the second quarter that ended July 31, 2024, CRWD's <a href="https://www.investopedia.com/terms/r/revenue.asp">revenue</a> increased 31.7% year-over-year to $963.87 million. Its non-GAAP income from operations grew 45.7% from the year-ago value to $226.79 million. Non-GAAP net income attributable to CrowdStrike was $260.76 million or $1.04 per share, up 44.9% and 40.5% from the prior year's period, respectively.
Furthermore, the company's free cash flow rose 44.3% year-over-year to $272.23 million.
The company provided guidance for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, projecting total revenue between $979.20 million and $984.70 million and non-GAAP income from operations expected between $166.70 million and $170.80 million. Also, non-GAAP net income attributable to CrowdStrike is expected to range from $201.20 million to $205.2 million and $0.80 - $0.81 per share.
For the full year, CRWD expects total revenue of $3.89 billion - $3.90 billion. Its non-GAAP income from operations is set to be $774.70 million - $783.90 million. The company's non-GAAP net income attributable to CrowdStrike is projected from $908.80 million to $918.0 million and $3.61 to $3.65 per share.
Street expects CRWD's revenue and EPS for the first quarter (ending April 2025) to increase 20.2% and 2.1% year-over-year to $1.11 billion and $0.95, respectively. Also, the company surpassed the consensus EPS and revenue estimates in each of the trailing four quarters, which is impressive.
Shares of CRWD have gained 11% over the past month and 68.6% over the past year to close the last trading session at $350.15.
CRWD's solid fundamentals are reflected in its <a href="https://stocknews.com/powr-ratings/">POWR Ratings</a>. The POWR Ratings are calculated by considering 118 different factors, each weighted to an optimal degree.
CRWD has an A grade for Growth and a B for Quality. It is ranked #15 out of 20 stocks in the B-rated <a href="https://stocknews.com/category/software-security/">Software - Security</a> industry.
In addition to the POWR Ratings we've stated above, we also have CRWD ratings for Momentum, Value, Stability, and Sentiment. Get all CRWD ratings <a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/CRWD/">here</a>.
Stock #2: Zscaler, Inc. (<a href="https://stocknews.com/stock/ZS/">ZS</a>)
ZS operates as a global cloud security company. The company provides Zscaler Internet Access solution, which allows users, workloads, IoT, and OT devices to have secure access to externally managed applications. It also offers Zscaler Private Access solution, which is designed to provide access to managed applications hosted internally in data centers and private or public clouds.
