It's time to root for the underdog.
I'm excited.
Are you excited?
I'm excited.
This is going to be so fun.
I mean, mega IPOs, we haven't had many of them in the past few years.
And it's really exciting that SpaceX is going public because, I mean, just Wall Street has never seen anything.
anything like this, like this particular scale.
SpaceX potentially could raise up to $75 billion.
In second place, the current record holder for IPOs is Saudi Aramco with just $29 billion.
So the scale is truly unimaginable.
It's truly galactic like SpaceX's ambitions.
According to Dan Permack, he put it more in perspective, this would raise more than all U.S.
listings did in 2024 and 2025 combined.
The entire US IPO market has only raised more money in two of the past 10 years.
And SpaceX will also become the first company, will attempt to become the first company to ever go public at a valuation of $1 trillion or more.
If it goes public, when it goes public, it'll be immediately worth more than Walmart, ExxonMobil, or Meta.
So this is truly gigantic in its size.
It was very funny too.
Definitely put a little bit of a cloud over the IPO because people were excited just to invest in SpaceX, and it's currently dominating the space industry anywhere around the world.
