SpaceX’s Anticipated Nasdaq Debut: What This $2 Trillion Valuation Means for Investors and Entrepreneurs
نیویورک: SpaceX is poised to exceed a market valuation of $2 trillion in its Nasdaq debut on Friday, showcasing a surge of interest in the Elon Musk-led company and positioning it as the sixth-largest publicly listed entity in the United States.
Shares are expected to open at approximately $175 each, marking a افزایش 30% from its initial public offering (IPO) price of $135. This sets the stage for a remarkable debut for what is projected to be the largest IPO in history.
In light of the excitement surrounding the listing, Wall Street is preparing for a significant test of its trading infrastructure. Exchanges, market makers, and underwriters are gearing up for an influx of orders following SpaceX’s sale of $75 billion in shares, which gives the company an initial valuation of $1.77 trillion—placing it among America’s largest firms.
Market participants are particularly vigilant to avoid the technical issues that plagued Meta’s 2012 debut.
As SpaceX is seen as a precursor to a new generation of major listings, attention will also be focused on investor interest ahead of upcoming IPOs for prominent AI companies such as Anthropic and OpenAI.
Trading is not expected to commence until the middle of the trading day, as the exchange will be gathering buy and sell orders. Underwriters will delay trading until the market achieves a balance between supply and demand.
“We anticipate an immediate surge in trading for SpaceX due to the hype around this deal, possibly exceeding 20% on the first day,” stated Samuel Kerr, global head of equity capital markets at Mergermarket. “Anything lower would be concerning.”
SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell and Chief Financial Officer Bret Johnsen will ring the Nasdaq opening bell at 9:30 AM.
This landmark listing solidifies Musk’s status as the world’s first trillionaire and elevates SpaceX to the ranks of the world’s most valuable companies, despite the fact that the firm recorded a loss of nearly $5 billion last year and generated only a fraction of the revenue compared to its similarly valued tech counterparts.
