A record-breaking listing
SpaceX raised a reported ~$75 billion at a valuation near $1.8 trillion, ranking among the largest IPOs in history. Now that it's trading, the focus shifts to how the price moves in its first weeks, whether it gets added to big market indices like the Nasdaq 100, and when early investors are allowed to sell their shares. Each of these events can move the price and create trading opportunities.
