SpaceX Creates World Record with Historic $75 Billion IPO

SpaceX has successfully launched the biggest initial public offering (IPO) in world history. The space company raised 75 billion dollars through a single stock market listing. This massive sale is much bigger than any previous IPO.

The company sold 555.6 million shares to the public. Each share had a price of 135 dollars. With this price, the total value of SpaceX has reached 1.77 trillion dollars. The company is now among the ten most valuable listed firms globally. It is even bigger than Elon Musk’s electric car company, Tesla.

The shares will trade on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and Nasdaq Texas. The trading begins on June 12, 2026. The official stock ticker symbol is SPCX. The complete deal will close on June 15, 2026. The company also gave investment banks a special option to sell 83.3 million more shares later. If banks sell those extra shares, the total IPO size will reach 86 billion dollars.

This IPO is double the size of the previous record holder. Saudi Aramco raised 29.4 billion dollars in 2019. In fact, Buyers wanted four times more shares than what SpaceX offered i.e., the subscription was 4 times. Ordinary retail investors placed orders worth over 100 billion dollars.

This mega sale has increased the wealth of Elon Musk significantly. His personal wealth grew by 275 billion dollars because of this IPO. His total net worth is now around $1.11 trillion dollars. He owns a huge stake in SpaceX worth $767.1 billion, plus an additional $53.8 billion in vested options. He is now the first official trillionaire in history.

Musk’s net worth is primarily split between his aerospace flagship and his electric vehicle company:

• SpaceX & xAI Assets: $820.9 Billion (Shares valued at $767.1B + $53.8B in options) .
• Tesla Holdings: $284.4 Billion (Shares valued at $168B + $116.4B in options) .
• Other Startups: Residual billions held across Neuralink, The Boring Company, and X (formerly Twitter),

SpaceX changed its business focus rapidly over the last six months. It used to be just a rocket and satellite internet business. Now, the company presents itself as an artificial intelligence (AI) infrastructure firm. Its value was 800 billion dollars in December. It reached 1 trillion dollars after it bought another Musk company called xAI in February.

The company signed big deals to supply AI computing power to Google and Anthropic. These firms pay SpaceX 2.17 billion dollars every month. Elon Musk wants to build data centers in space, factories on the moon, and human cities on Mars.
