SpaceX IPO
SpaceX goes public at $135 per share, raising billions and setting an opening valuation near $1.7 trillion. Underwriters include Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and J.P. Morgan.
SpaceX’s post-IPO stock volatility offers a stark masterclass for startup founders: even the world’s most valuable private company can see its acquisition currency evaporate in days. The 34-percentage-point jump in dilution shows why timing M&A around stock peaks is both an art and a science, and why locked-in valuations are vital. For founders eyeing strategic acquisitions, the SpaceX story underscores the peril of assuming today’s high-flying stock will be tomorrow’s currency.
