#5 - Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:LUNR)
Intuitive Machines Inc. (NASDAQ: LUNR) was one of the key suppliers that contributed to the primarily successful unmanned moon landing earlier this year. The news was certainly good for shareholders. LUNR stock is down 62% in the last 12 months but is up 34% in the last month. However, that gain has been trimmed by nearly 20% in early March as investors sold the news to take profits.
That's one of the risks with a small-cap company like Intuitive Machines. Short interest in LUNR stock is an uncomfortable 21.4% of the float. That creates a heavy lift for retail investors. And make no mistake about it, LUNR is still relatively undiscovered by Wall Street. About $29 million has flowed into LUNR stock in the last 12 months, but that represents only about 5% of shares.
Probably because the company's products will likely be part of a second unmanned moon landing later this year, analysts seem relatively undisturbed by the recent sell-off. They maintain a consensus Buy rating and have a price target of $12.25, which is 152% higher than the stock's current price.
