Summary

SpaceX began trading under the ticker SPCX, opening at $150 per share and implying a valuation above $2 trillion, according to qz.com. The company led by CEO Elon Musk operates launch services with Falcon rockets and the Starlink satellite broadband network, while developing Starship for heavy payloads. Early trading is expected to be volatile, with lockup periods limiting insider sales and potential index inclusion only after eligibility reviews. A valuation at this level focuses attention on capital allocation to Starlink satellites, ground infrastructure, and launch facilities in Texas and Florida. Competitive pressure persists from Blue Origin, Rocket Lab, Viasat, Iridium, and Amazon's Project Kuiper. Investors will weigh recurring Starlink revenue against aerospace execution risks tied to launches, regulation, and geopolitics.
