Elon Musk’s aerospace empire, SpaceX, is reportedly finalized plans for a monumental initial public offering on the Nasdaq exchange this June. Internal sources suggest the company is aiming for a $1.75 trillion valuation, a figure that would redefine the upper echelons of the U.S. stock market. This move follows the company’s recent strategic merger with xAI, creating a powerhouse of orbital infrastructure and artificial intelligence.
The decision to go public marks a turning point for the firm, which has historically relied on private funding and government contracts. With Starlink’s subscriber base now exceeding 10 million and the Starship program nearing commercial readiness, the company’s revenue streams have become increasingly predictable. Analysts believe the capital raised will be used to fund massive space-based data centers.
SpaceX is reportedly making its listing contingent on the Nasdaq’s new “Fast Entry” protocol. This rule change would allow the company to be integrated into the Nasdaq 100 index in less than 30 days, bypassing the standard one-year probationary period. Such a move would grant the company immediate access to massive institutional capital and index-tracking funds.
The listing is expected to create a significant shift in investor sentiment toward the broader aerospace and defense sectors. As SpaceX joins the ranks of Apple and Nvidia, it will serve as a new benchmark for high-growth industrial technology. Many investors view the IPO as the only direct way to participate in the burgeoning commercial space economy.
While the New York Stock Exchange has made a competing bid to host the listing, the Nasdaq remains the front-runner due to its tech-centric focus. No formal decision has been announced, and the company continues to operate under a confidential filing status with the SEC. The financial world is now bracing for what could be the largest market entry in history.
