## Resource

In this solo episode of Going Public with Ross Mandell, Ross breaks down what could become the biggest IPO in history: the highly anticipated SpaceX IPO. Ross explains why SpaceX is not just a rocket company. With Starlink, satellite internet, government contracts, reusable rockets, defense applications, and global infrastructure, SpaceX has become one of the most important private companies in the world. As Wall Street prepares for a potential public offering, Ross breaks down what investors need to understand before the hype begins. This episode goes beyond simply asking whether investors should buy SpaceX stock. Ross explains how professional investors think about massive IPOs, why institutional money flow matters, and why the smartest trade may not be buying SpaceX immediately — but watching where Wall Street moves money before and after the IPO. Ross also discusses how a potential $1.75 trillion SpaceX valuation could impact the stock market, index funds, liquidity, capital rotation, volume, and investor psychology.
