1. AMMO Inc (NASDAQ:POWW)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders In Q4 2024: 3

AMMO Inc (NASDAQ:POWW) is a firearms company that also has its own online firearms marketplace.

The stock is up significantly so far in 2025 as it announced the sale of its ammunition manufacturing assets to Olin Winchester for $75 million in cash so it could pivot to its profitable GunBroker.com marketplace. The transaction is expected to close in Q2 2025.

The platform has shown strong user growth (25,000 new users per month) and increased monetization through higher take rates. The $75 million cash injection from the asset sale should boost the platform even more.

The consensus price target of $1.5 implies 17.36% downside.

POWW stock is up 67.73% year-to-date.
