# Weekly Recap | Firefly Aerospace +1.93%, consensus target above spot

## The Week

Firefly Aerospace (FLY) rose 1.93% this week to close at $21.67 on Friday, up from $21.26 the previous week. The S&P 500 gained just 0.09% over the same period, so FLY outperformed the benchmark by roughly 1.84 percentage points. The daily bars show a choppy but ultimately higher pattern: Monday opened near the highs before easing, Tuesday marked the week’s low at $20.353, and the stock then climbed steadily into Friday’s close near the top of the range. Weekly amplitude came to 7.68% on subdued daily turnover of about 2 million shares, below the 60-day median. There was no major company-specific catalyst this week; the move tracked general market sentiment.

## Analyst Ratings

Of the 10 institutions covering the stock, 6 rate it buy, 1 rate it overweight and 3 rate it hold, with no underweight or sell ratings. The consensus recommendation is buy, and the consensus target of $41.60 sits about 91.97% above the current price. Individual targets range from $25 to $65, reflecting wide dispersion. Within the aerospace and defence sector, FLY ranks 35th out of 84 companies on consensus rating.

## The Week Ahead

Several US data points land next week. Tuesday brings the NFIB small business optimism index, previously 99.8. Thursday is busier, with initial jobless claims, final demand PPI, existing home sales, wholesale sales and a 10-year Treasury auction. Watch how small business confidence and inflation prints shape risk appetite. The company also announced this week that it completed raising funds through ownership shares; any disclosure around the use of proceeds could be a follow-up to monitor.
