SpaceX Prepares for Historic IPO

Elon Musk’s SpaceX is set to launch the largest IPO in Wall Street history, seeking a valuation of $1.75 trillion with shares debuting on the Nasdaq on June 12, 2026. The company filed its registration statement on May 20, and is expected to kick off its IPO roadshow on June 4. The Nasdaq’s new rule allows for fast-tracked inclusion into the Nasdaq-100, potentially increasing SpaceX’s market value by an estimated $22 billion to $27 billion shortly after its IPO.

Despite the excitement, experts advise caution for retail investors. Historically, major IPOs tend to struggle post-launch, and SpaceX is entering the market with a high price-to-sales ratio close to 94, well above the typical range of 30-45 for similar companies. Additionally, significant operating losses and a capital-intensive model may pose challenges for future growth.
