Investors Weigh Risks of High Valuation IPOs

The upcoming IPO of SpaceX, expected to be one of the largest in history with a target valuation of $1.75 trillion, has drawn significant attention from investors. However, a Reuters analysis shows that few recent high-valuation IPOs have outpaced the S&P 500, with investors who bought in at the IPO price often underperforming the market.
