Intuitive Machines is shifting from one-time lunar deliveries to high-margin recurring revenue, which matters more than the near-term pressure from capital rotating into SpaceX's IPO. Its Q1 backlog hit a record $1.1B, giving high visibility on 2026 revenue guidance of $900M-$1B. Its NASA Near Space Network work could make lunar missions pay to use its relay network, and the Goonhilly deal adds 44+ deep-space antennas. Short interest at 26.5% of float could fuel a squeeze on contract wins. x.com 

Intuitive Machines is a home-run pick backed by in-depth research shared with subscribers just over a week earlier. x.com 

Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile and Intuitive Machines are priced as if they had already colonized the solar system, so they look headed one way once the hype rally ends. Together they carry an $82 billion market cap on $883 million of revenue and no profits, while burning cash heavily. Reusable rockets are a cost-reduction story rather than a giant leap. Their long-term potential may be real, but that future is 20-30 years out and does not justify today's valuations. x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  x.com  … Show more

A stronger SpaceX could lift the wider space-stock basket, including AST SpaceMobile, Rocket Lab, Redwire, Planet Labs, Intuitive Machines, Firefly Aerospace and Voyager Technologies. Per DeItaone, JPMorgan raised its SpaceX price target from $240 to $500 while maintaining Overweight. The seven space stocks rose alongside SpaceX after hours. Their initial post-IPO selloff was followed by macro-driven weakness, not further weakness caused by SpaceX. x.com  x.com  x.com 

Intuitive Machines could very likely reach a $10B market cap within three to five years if its Near Space Network succeeds. Much depends on the Near Space Network and its lunar build. x.com 

Space demand remains strong, but setups are uneven. Commercial and government demand is accelerating, making space strategic for decades. Voyager and Redwire have very strong setups, though a Redwire retest is worth waiting for; Rocket Lab reclaimed its two-year trendline after great earnings but must still confirm. AST SpaceMobile failed to reclaim its weekly 50-period average despite great earnings and now faces it as resistance, a poor risk/reward; Firefly and Intuitive Machines look bad. … Show more

Space stocks can create generational wealth this year, and five of them can 10x. AST SpaceMobile has its direct-to-phone constellation and AT&T and Verizon deals; Rocket Lab has Electron launches, Neutron and a space-systems backlog; Firefly Aerospace has Alpha and Eclipse rockets and the Blue Ghost lander; SpaceX has Starship, Falcon, Starlink and AI compute; Intuitive Machines has NASA lunar landers and an infrastructure pipeline. All five grew trailing revenue 53% to 2,257%. x.com  x.com 

Ten listed companies span every layer of a space economy projected to nearly triple to $1.8 trillion by 2035. Rocket Lab has a $2.2B backlog, with Neutron its next catalyst and biggest execution bet. Firefly guides to $420-450M and won Golden Dome work. Iridium is the steady cash-flow name. Redwire, Intuitive Machines, Voyager and Planet Labs carry large backlogs, Satellogic hit positive operating cash flow, and Spire's defense pivot is the catalyst to watch. AST SpaceMobile is FCC-approved. … Show more

Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile, Firefly, Intuitive Machines, Redwire and SpaceX are too risky to buy at today's valuations, given the potential for a cascade decline. Index-inclusion buying may keep SpaceX and sympathy names bid for months, but in another growth bear market like 2021's aftermath they could fall hard and recover slowly even if the businesses execute, and SpaceX may eventually crash the party. They remain liked, just not worth adding; Northrop Grumman is the preferred space stock. … Show more

Artemis should be a huge driver of Intuitive Machines' growth over the next five years, and at a $2B market cap it feels like early Rocket Lab at $2B. Per Stifel, which upgraded it to Buy, backlog jumped $707M to $1.76B on a 4.5x book-to-bill, led by a $600M+ commercial GEO satellite award. Q2 revenue rose 310% to $206M, and FY26 guidance of $900M-$1B with positive EBITDA was reaffirmed. x.com
