As with most space exploration companies, Intuitive Machines is riding more on narrative than numbers. The story centers around the new space race, particularly in lunar exploration and data transmission from space to Earth, a key area where the company claims a competitive edge. While Intuitive Machines hasn’t independently launched any rockets, it has sent two lunar payloads aboard SpaceX Falcon 9 missions under NASA's Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) program. Of the two, only the IM‑1 “Odysseus” mission in early 2024 achieved a partial success, landing on the Moon but tipping over. Their second lander, IM‑2 “Athena”, failed to fully function after landing sideways in 2025 and couldn’t transmit as intended. Despite these setbacks, the company has maintained optimism,...
Google Pre-Earnings Analysis Google’s parent company, Alphabet, has recovered 38% since the market wide sell-off earlier this year in April. However, the rally faces a major test today as the company releases its quarterly earnings report. Over the past 12 months, Google has faced growing pressure from new rivals like ChatGPT and other AI chatbots. Investors feared that the search engine’s dominance might be coming to an end as newer, more innovative technologies emerged. Google responded by enhancing its own AI model, Gemini. Both chatbots are powerful, with their own specialties, but the rapidly evolving space is pushing everyone to continuously improve. Google holds an advantage with $75 billion in free cash flow, giving it the flexibility to acquire smaller...
CoreWeave It’s been three months since we placed CoreWeave on our weekly watchlist, and since then, the stock has posted a historic rally, climbing from its April lows of $33.52 to a high of $187.00. It was expected to be one of the hottest IPOs of the year, and it certainly lived up to the hype, judging by the influx of buyers. However, as with any IPO, investors should remain cautious for at least 4 to 6 earnings cycles before fully trusting the company’s long-term potential. CoreWeave has reported one quarterly earnings so far, which partially fueled its rally from IPO lows. Q1 earnings reflected $981 million in revenue, a strong jump from $188 million during the same period last...

Citigroup ($C) Pre-earnings Analysis Citigroup just touched high it hasn’t seen since 2008, which may be signaling a turnaround in a financial institution that’s often forgotten among the big banks. The company continues to show financial resilience and operational discipline as it enters the second half of 2025, which is likely what’s leading shares higher. And now that it’s touched highs not seen in more than a decade, the bank may continue attracting investors into a higher rally, especially if they report strong earnings in two weeks. The bank reported solid first-quarter results, with net income climbing to $4.1 billion on revenues of $21.6 billion, both figures marking a year-over-year improvement. Revenue rose 3%, while operating expenses fell by 5%,...
