SpaceX Sets IPO Price at $135 per Share Despite Reporting $4.9 Billion Loss in 2025

SpaceX shares will begin trading on the Nasdaq Exchange on June 12 under the ticker SPCX at a price of $135 per share. 75 trillion. 3 billion in the first three months of 2026.

The offering exceeds the previous record set by Alibaba’s $22 billion IPO on the New York Stock Exchange in 2014. SpaceX is slated to join the Russell 1000 Index five trading days after its initial public listing. The company could join the Nasdaq-100 Index as early as 15 trading days after the listing.

5 trillion for SpaceX and estimated its available market capitalization at about $70 billion. SpaceX’s inclusion in the Nasdaq-100 and Russell 1000 was fast-tracked earlier in 2026.

Lockup restrictions typically prevent founders, employees, and early investors from selling shares immediately after an IPO. Alex Michalka, vice president of investment research at Wealthfront, said a critical factor to keep in mind is free float. Dina Ting, head of global index portfolio management at Franklin Templeton, said a company may dominate headlines yet enter a broad index with a relatively modest initial footprint.

Ting cited FTSE Russell’s analysis showing the small initial weighting. Advisers said such a modest footprint should not drastically alter diversified investment holdings. Armando Pantoja said the stock is likely to rise when funds have to buy the shares but might come under pressure once insider lockups expire.

Steve Azoury, founder of Azoury Financial, said if fund managers are the ones buying the shares, investors might get a better price. Azoury said the guy has a track record and is the richest man in the world. He must know what he’s doing.
