SpaceX IPO priced at $135 per share, values company at $1.77 trillion
The SpaceX IPO made Musk a trillionaire. The old rules of capitalism no longer apply. The economic principles taught in school aren’t as relevant as hype, connections and total, arbitrary control. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jun/12/spacex-ipo-elon-musk-trillionaire
This isn’t capitalism Its neo-feudalism Equality is utterly irrelevant Fiefdom power and authority overrides democratic legitimacy and accountability And humanity is in the way of more wealth, more power. Its diabolical. And doomed. Time for the revolution #musk #money
100% taxes for ALL billionaires......(for everything after a billion). This shit needs to stop!!
Meanwhile, in a quiet part of North London...
Why does SpaceX take government handouts?
Between the 401k investors who do not respond to any news on the market and the "to the moon" stonk crowd, these conmen have a perfect formula to claim a company running at a loss is worth 3 trillion dollars and people actually buy into it. Nothing short of total system collapse will stabalize it.
It is an example of the abject failure of our government.
Musk became a trillionaire on the backs of the American taxpayers. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2026/06/ther...
It’s a lot of money for a guy that incites race riots and ‘throws his heart to the crowd’ like he’s at Nuremberg.
I guess we all know now what Nazi Elon got paid for that whole doge fiasco. The real reason he didn’t care about Tesla. Peter Thiel and Elon musk are the two most dangerous immigrants in the USA.
Now Musk has trillions to spend on buying politicians and countries.
We really need to do more than just cry about taxing the rich.
The biggest piece of human garbage walking the face of this dying planet gets rewarded by the stupid plebs for using, abusing and dismantling the very democratic system that made this psychopath possible in the first place.
It aint over till the fat lady sings. The smart people ought to be selling, soon.
This is a play of epic proportions. A collection of questionable untested technology futures with musk holding 85% of the voting rights. The post ipo slide will be jangling lots of investor nerves.
I know while the news is how much he made but has anyone else read the financials of spacex...this is the golden example of a bubble waiting to pop...crypto has greater realistic value
There were barely any rules before.
Game on! We're going to decentralize their ass. LOL
Some indices r even changing their rules 2 allow SpaceX 2b included n days-weeks n lieu of normal several yrs of proven performance. This means almost everyone with a 401K\IRA will be forced to participate in this madness. Rule changes to benefit the rich & keep the peasant class, well, peasants.
Remember when all the brokerages turned themselves into 🏦🏦 in '08 so they could suck at the teat of government at zero percent interest & Jamie Dimon took $39 billion of your 💰 & should be in prison? The DoGE chode Leon is just the latest grifter in a long line of failed hacks with abhorrent values.
"Elon Musk’s $1.77 Trillion SpaceX IPO: What You Absolutely Need to Know" The world’s richest man will soon be a trillionaire thanks to changes made by Trump regulators and financial markets. You might end up holding the bag.
Funny how every time regular people get a tax break it’s called irresponsible. Every time a billionaire gets one it’s called innovation and economic growth.
I know all I need to know about Elon
All that money And still an complete asshole
Just a reminder: If one dollar buys you one second… $1 million buys 11 days $1 billion buys 32 years $1 trillion buys 32,000 years Nobody needs a billion, let alone a… oh, for fucks sake. Musk needs to be fired in a rocket to Mars.
Why do I have the sneaking suspicion that the SpaceX IPO will be the greatest corruption episode of all time? Something fishy going on here....transfers to GOP....the sudden Iran thaw to push stocks higher.....
Musk is already being paid $8M per day by the US Treasury. Trump is aiding Musk to do the greatest heist ever.
A Ponzi scheme of galactic proportions has made a South African Nazi Earth's first trillionaire.
I’m sick of this disgusting spoiled man child getting govt funds and special IPOs. We need to find a way to shut down SpaceX and deport this freak.
The American people are paying for all of this-why, when this cretin is already a multibillionaire? And ordinary, everyday Americans still worship him? 🤬🤦🏻♀️
He would’ve been a trillionaire regardless. The country must pass a constitutional amendment making it impossible for individuals (no loop holes!) to be worth more than let’s say 750 million or so.
Googling “ how fast is my retirement account going to disappear?”
All I need to know is that he's a complete f'kin nazi POS.
No one person on earth should have access to that much money. We are seeing the problems when a free market are taken advantage of and the rich can control the taxes and rules that allow them to build such huge wealth while everyone else suffers. TAX THE RICH (their fair % based on wealth)
I hate this fucking fuckhead. The only thing this IPO does is spur the Dump family and the 🍊💩in the White House to aspire to also be trillionaires by stealing from the rest of us.
Former NASDAQ chairman Bernie Madoff’s Ponzi scheme is widely considered the largest financial swindle in history, defrauding thousands of investors out of an estimated $64.8 billion over four decades. With the help of the deregulation, Elon is gonna beat that record & this time Everyone's Invited!
He convinced Congress to Occupy Mars and doesn't want to travel there????!!?!?!!
Musk was really smart to win the election for DJT in 2024. www.cnn.com/2024/10/07/p...
Elon Musk has more $$ than he'll ever need .. but no respect and that's something he can't buy #EatTheRich
Might?? Clearly, it is a forgone conclusion
Elon Musk becoming the world's first trillionaire tells you all you need to know about capitalism
The secret to being rich is to be born rich, and have a grand father who was a member of the nazi party.
Youll have liberals look you in the eyes and tell you there was no way for dems to have known that giving a south african racist unlimited government contracts was a bad idea
Especially when his heartless USAID cuts have resulted in the needless deaths of literally thousands of people — including countless children — in sub-Saharan Africa. Musk can take his presumed support for “Effective Altruism” and shove it up his little ketamine ass.
Can we eat him now?
You don't get it - he works one million times harder than a millionaire, so he deserves a trillion dollars. Just as every hour a millionaire works is worth over forty-one days worked by a thousandaire, each Elon hour is worth over one hundred and fourteen years of millionaire work.
Trillionaire Musk: - Too rich to tax. - Too rich to regulate. - Too rich to keep from dominating governments. - Too rich to say, "No," to. - Too rich for safety. - Too rich for humanity's good.
Since 2011, Elon Musk has been promising to put a man on Mars within a few years. He failed. SpaceX burned through billions of dollars of venture capital. It still isn't profitable and Mars is now further away than it was in 2011. If you're buying the $SPCX IPO, you're the exit liquidity.
And yet people will give him all their money. It's insane.
Musk’s companies are so highly valued despite horrible financials. All investors just gush over his vision and promises and keep giving him endless money believing “someday” will happen.
Musk is a bigger bullshit artist than Trump. The difference between them is that Trump believes his own lies and Musk doesn't. But he knows you want to. Used car salesmen have more integrity than either of these guys.
Personally, I literally laugh out loud when people like Muck or Sheldon (Big Bang) insist they want to go to Mars. A 7+ month voyage, BTW. Like either of them - in all their "persnicketyness" - has what it takes to endure such a trip. *Sigh*
It just perplexes me how cretins like Trump, Starmer and Musk can repeat VERY costly and colossal failures...yet they never get removed or ignored. If the plan was proven not to work, why try it again?
It’s a massive fraud by the Nazi trillionaire. If our governments weren’t also owned by these oligarchs then they would put a stop to it.
"The closer you look at the SpaceX IPO, the more it looks like Musk’s ill-fated Doge," writes @rbreich.bsky.social. "All of it is arbitrary – based on the hype and will of one man with a giant ego and an insatiable thirst for money and power."
"All of it is arbitrary – based on the hype and will of one man with a giant ego and an insatiable thirst for money and power." - perfect description of narcissism.
Musk had a stable of failing but overvalued businesses. As each ran into problems he had another buy them until they were all folded into SpaceX, like a russian doll. Now he has one hugely overvalued company. Who will he pass the parcel to when it goes sour? the Public? Government ? Banks?
Gee & I thought this liquidity event was to allow Thiel, Andreessen, Sequoia & the other early investors a way to cash out on foolish retail investors’ dimes.
Morningstar out with a $63/share price target for SpaceX, a 53% discount from its IPO global.morningstar.com/en-gb/stocks...
With a market that prices TSLA at $400 because corruption is legal, unclear why anyone would bet against SpaceX.
we assume that by 2035, SpaceX will be able to launch 340 Starship missions (nearly one a day), and that the reusability rate of the rockets on these missions reaches 85%, extending cost and time savings beyond the reuse of the boosters to the upper stage spacecraft. That’s quite an assumption
Even their worst case scenario still assumes starship somehow defies physics and succeeds, they don't actually have a scenario mapped here for the most likely reality where it NEVER works out and they have to cut bait and refocus on falcon, aka, the one that actually works, and being a lift provider
But surely that's wrong? Either the bubble stays inflated or it pops, but how does it gently sag?
Even overvalued at this target price. Half of current price is still grok generating $13T of revenues or half of GDP
It’s still overpriced at $63 / share. Musk is an expert in selling horseshit for gold prices.
What’s the discount for having an owner and CEO who is legitimately bad at everything.
Still seems incredibly high for a company with the worst performing AI model and few long term prospects superglued to a space company with negligible growth potential
What happens when billionaires call cruelty “efficiency”? The Trillion-Dollar Paper Shredder takes aim at Elon Musk, DOGE, and the brutal arithmetic of cutting mercy while worshiping wealth, power, and technological spectacle. essayx.substack.com/p/the-trilli...
Even that seems vastly and ludicrously overpriced.
"[T]he SpaceX IPO now in progress makes it clearer than ever that Musk’s greatest skill isn’t developing futuristic products. It’s his mastery of financial shell games and his ability to leverage insider influence, especially his influence with the Trump administration." - @pkrugman.bsky.social
"Elon Musk proved long ago that he’s the wrong man to save the world. It’s even worse now. The world needs saving from him." - TC Sottek @theverge.com
I feel like "mastery" is giving him too much credit. Your average three-card monty dealer would be professionally offended by the obviousness of his grift. But no one calls him on it bc the shills report making $100 million rather than $100.
🚨NEWS: The Trump administration quietly waived key longstanding investor protection rules ahead of the IPO for Elon Musk's SpaceX, according to government documents reviewed by @levernews.com. The exemption "has never been provided before," according to one financial watchdog.
The great depression and the stock market crash were caused by the railroad barons. The pending stock market crash and great depression V2.0 is from Big Tech barons.
Fools and their money will be parted.
Great, let’s subtract a Jenga brick from a fundamentally flawed and unstable system that required the Jenga brick as a mitigation last time that things went tits up.
And we're all gonna pay for it. Robbin' Trump: steal from the poor and middle-class and give to the rich ... and himself.
Elon Musk SpaceX IPO launches today, it is expected to lose 80-90% of its 'worth' in the first 3 months. If you buy you are going to lose so much money so quickly.
We want the kind of people who love him to buy so they can lose wealth.
Good, hope it goes fucking bankrupt.
I wish I could tell the index funds in my retirement accounts not to buy Space X but that’s not an option. We’ll all sink together as the muskrat floats on top.
I think Starlink is the only real generator of profits - and that has limited growth potential as it's very expensive for customers. Those that have a choice will go elsewhere for their internet access. Most of those who don't have a choice can't afford Starlink.
Isn't it odd that the media isn't mentioning it's worth from 11 months ago when it was valued at $400 billion and that it still hasn't made a profit yet?
Oh sweet baby jeebus I hope that is what happens. I would LOVE to see a bunch of tech bros lose their shirts investing in Captain Smoothbrain’s Space Grift.
I watched a woman on a flight earlier this week emailing an advisor for shares while we were on final approach. She was so consumed, not paying attention as we started to deplane, and was grazed in the head by a backpack. I smirked under my mask while she acted offended but didn’t say anything. 😏
It’s going to crash, just like the rockets 🤪
Hopefully, all those in the Billionaire Boys Club invest HEAVILY!!
Going to include a whole bunch of folks 401k money. Index based ETFs are required to buy. Do you know what funds your money is invested in?
"The SpaceX IPO looks like a fire sale. Nasdaq and other indexes have changed their rules specifically to fast-track entry for SpaceX, and S&P Dow Jones Indices has proposed eliminating profitability requirements..." $SPCX www.patreon.com/BindingChaos...
"These changes shorten entry times and reduce requirements for the new stock to be included on funds that track the entire index and automatically own a slice of every company on the list." $SPCX
The only way to become a trillionaire is to rob the people’s 401k’s!!!!
"SpaceX is not currently profitable overall; it reported a GAAP net loss of roughly $4.9 billion on $18.7 billion in revenue last year. While its foundational rocket division generates significant revenue, only its Starlink satellite internet division is currently profitable" - Google search AI
Following formal consultation with the market, S&P Dow Jones Indices has decided not to allow a shortened waiting period or any other concessions for the inclusion of large companies (so-called “mega-caps”), such as SpaceX, in the prestigious S&P 500 index.
While competing indices such as the Nasdaq-100 or FTSE Russell have adjusted their rules to allow for “fast entry” of giants just a few days after an IPO, the S&P 500 insists on its strict criteria
End stage capitalism and trying to crash the dollar
This is such bullshit , it's bank robbery in broad daylight
This is how stock markets collapse
That should be all you need to know to avoid this stock like the plague.
an important reason why there was such institutional pressure behind the SpaceX IPO is a whole bunch of VC funds desperately needed to cash out old vintages of funding rounds
This is what higher education became in the USA: a debt factory for students, a gig economy for teachers, and a discreet casino for trustees gambling public purpose on billionaire toys while calling it “innovation.”
I’d argue that investing in spacex in 2018 was a great investment, even if i think investing in it now is idiotic.
"All this is held together by an ideology that seems to be at its peak right now. The SpaceX IPO marks the massive expansionary inflation of an entirely imaginary universe." www.programmablemutter.com/p/what-would...
slobodian and tarnoff are smart dudes; they're really worth listening to about these tech oligarchs. these clowns are ridiculous, but they aren't a joke slobodian's been writing about the trillionaires' network state plans for a while now; they have some very dark designs for the rest of us
SpaceX was sold as humanity escaping Earth. Increasingly it looks like humanity rehearsing feudalism in orbit: one billionaire with rockets, courtiers with blue checks, and the rest of us invited to applaud the launch of our own irrelevance.
