Historic Public Offering Sends SPCX Stock Soaring 19 Percent
SpaceX made financial history on June 12, 2026, completing the largest initial public offering ever recorded at a staggering $75 billion raise and $1.75 trillion valuation. The rocket manufacturer’s stock surged 19% on its first day of trading, closing at $161 and briefly pushing the company’s market capitalization past $2 trillion. This unprecedented debut not only minted Elon Musk as the world’s first trillionaire but also triggered a significant rotation out of established tech giants, with hedge funds selling positions in the Magnificent Seven to free up capital for the historic offering, as reported by Intellectia AI.
