SpaceX made the biggest stock market debut in history on Friday after nearly two and a half decades as a private company.
Public trading began around midday with a starting share price of $150, which quickly jumped by a double digit percentage and sent the company’s valuation above $2tn, where it remained through market close.
The company’s initial public offering made the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, the world’s first trillionaire.



I fucking hate Musk but in what world is SpaceX unprofitable? If you’re talking about xAI then I’ll agree with you, but with the access to space and starlink/starshield wrapped up in it SpaceX is positioned as the most likely of the AI companies to receive a government bailout when the balloon pops.
