🔽 SpaceX loses most of its IPO gains within days SpaceX shares jumped from the IPO price to a peak of around $225, briefly pushing the company's valuation close to $3 trillion. Within days, the stock fell to $150 before recovering to roughly $162. At its peak, SpaceX briefly reached a valuation of nearly $3 trillion, putting it above both Microsoft and Amazon despite being a much smaller business by revenue and profitability. ⠀ For comparison: • Microsoft: $318B revenue, $125B profit • Amazon: $743B revenue, $91B profit • SpaceX: $19B revenue, -$9B profit ⠀ Part of the explanation is structure. Only about 5% of SpaceX shares are publicly traded. The market price of that small float determines the valuation assigned to the remaining 95% held by Elon Musk, employees, and early investors. ⠀ The recent acquisition of xAI has also raised concerns about debt and integration risk, adding pressure after the initial IPO excitement faded.

SpaceX shares fell nearly 50% from their record highs on June 16, losing 10.5% today and cutting market cap by over $250 billion.
