If You Invested $2K in the SpaceX IPO, How Much Do You Have Now?
This article analyzes the performance of SpaceX's record-breaking IPO, which raised $75 billion at $135 per share. It examines what would happen to a $2,000 investment made at the IPO price. The stock initially surged 67% to $225.64, giving a paper gain of $3,340, but later fell back to approximately $135.27, leaving the investment essentially unchanged at $2,002.

The company reported $18.7 billion in 2025 revenue but a $4.9 billion net loss due to heavy investments. The piece concludes that initial stock swings are poor guides for long-term value, emphasizing the importance of underlying business execution.
