Intuitive Machines' stock was soaring, up 5.07% during intraday trading on Tuesday, marking a significant rebound for the lunar exploration company.
The surge comes as space stocks broadly recovered after a brutal Monday session where the sector gave back some of its recent epic gains. According to market reports, a Jefferies downgrade of peer Redwire appeared to catalyze profit-taking across the space group on Monday, following an exceptionally strong period where stocks benefited from the "SpaceX halo."
Investor focus remains on the highly anticipated initial public offering of SpaceX, which is expected to raise a record amount of cash and could value the company at $2 trillion. This event has created significant gravitational pull for the entire space sector, driving both recent gains and expected volatility.
