Firefly Aerospace Inc. (NASDAQ:FLY) is one of the 10 Stocks With Easy 8-20% Gains. Firefly Aerospace took off by 10.65 percent on Friday to finish at $32.93 apiece, amid increasing interest in space stocks, buoyed by SpaceX’s looming initial public offering (IPO). Firefly Aerospace Inc. (NASDAQ:FLY) climbed alongside its counterparts, driven primarily by the growing vote of confidence, as Elon Musk’s SpaceX gears up for one of the largest IPOs in history with a target to raise $75 billion in fresh funds. The public offer could potentially value the company as much as $1.75 trillion. SpaceX aside, Firefly Aerospace Inc. (NASDAQ:FLY) earlier this month announced mixed earnings performance last year, having widened its net losses but markedly expanded its revenues.
