On June 18, Firefly Aerospace rose 5.02% in regular trading, trading at $32.475/share, with turnover of approximately $92.73 million. The aerospace sector broadly recovered following a period of intense selling pressure triggered by SpaceX's Nasdaq debut.
After SpaceX began trading, institutional investors reallocated capital toward the newly listed stock, causing a sharp drawdown across commercial space names. Firefly suffered a single-day plunge exceeding 18%, followed by an additional 7.22% decline the prior session to $30.95. The cumulative steep drop generated significant technical rebound demand. Today the aerospace sector showed clear recovery momentum, with peer Redwire up 10.55%, Rocket Lab up 5.37%, and RTX up 3.20%, reflecting broad sector sentiment stabilization.
Additionally, KeyBanc recently upgraded Firefly from Sector Weight to Outperform with a $50 price target, while subsidiary SciTec secured a $5.5 million U.S. Air Force contract option for operational data fusion services under its advanced battle management system program, providing fundamental support.
