Anticipating SpaceX’s Record-Breaking IPO Debut Next Week
SpaceX, Elon Musk’s renowned space and AI conglomerate, is reportedly preparing to release its initial public offering (IPO) prospectus as early as next week. This move brings the company a step closer to what could potentially be the largest IPO in history.
The company, which merged with Musk’s artificial intelligence startup xAI in February 2026, was valued at a staggering $1.25 trillion in that transaction. According to Bloomberg, SpaceX is aiming for a listing size of approximately $70-75 billion. This figure is more than double the record set by Saudi Aramco’s $29.4 billion offering in 2019.
The prospectus filing is required to be disclosed at least 15 calendar days before the roadshow begins. This is to provide investors additional time to analyze the numbers. SpaceX and its advisers are expected to kick off their marketing roadshow the week of June 8, with a potential public debut shortly thereafter.
The IPO comes at a time when investor enthusiasm for AI-related stocks is high. This is evidenced by the successful 68% surge in Cerebras Systems’ debut last Thursday. Additionally, SpaceX’s filing is expected to coincide with the 12th test flight of its next-generation Starship rocket, currently scheduled for May 19. Wall Street analysts have noted that index funds may be compelled to invest if SpaceX is fast-tracked for inclusion in major benchmark indexes like the S&P 500.
