FT News Briefing · Extended version: Why Elizabeth Warren is worried about SpaceX · 17 Jun 2026
podcast
All the while, Elon Musk, the owner of SpaceX, has become the world's first trillionaire thanks to his shares in the AI to rockets business.
But for some, the SpaceX listing and its blockbuster valuation is a reason to worry, not celebrate.
In the run-up to the IPO, U.S.
Democratic Senator Elizabeth Warren wrote to the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission asking the regulator to delay the listing.
Warren is a ranking member of the Senate Banking Committee.
She joins me now to talk about why she opposed the SpaceX IPO and what it tells us about the American economy.
Senator Warren, welcome.
So let's start with the most recent updates.
SpaceX has shot up in value by more than a trillion dollars within just several days of going public.
That's from an initial valuation that was already the highest in history.
What are your thoughts as you're watching this?
I'd like to drill down on one of those concerns in particular, and that's indexing.
Sure.
As you mentioned, this will affect a lot of people, whether they are interested in investing in SpaceX or not.
Tell me a little bit more about what exactly has you worried?
Senator Warren, there are some folks out there who would consider the nearly $2 trillion initial valuation of SpaceX justified, saying that Elon Musk has the ability to turn a business around.
They point to Tesla.
Do people have a case there?
Well, let me ask you, Senator Warren, how do you think this would have gone differently under a different administration?
And then also SpaceX is losing money right now.
