SpaceX Trades Below Its IPO Price as $109 Billion Lockup and First Earnings Arrive This Week

SpaceX debuted at $135 on June 12, peaked at $225.64 six days later, and is now trading at $113.50 — below its IPO price, down more than 50% from its high, and erasing over $1 trillion in market value.

The debut created historic returns for every investor who backed Elon Musk's aerospace company across its 24-year private life. Now that the stock has pulled back sharply from its post-IPO peak, the real debate begins: is SpaceX at $2 trillion a reasonable bet on the future, or an extraordinary achievement priced as if the future has already arrived?
