A historic listing
SpaceX's listing on the Nasdaq as SPCX marks one of the most significant IPOs in financial market history. Now that SPCX is trading, attention turns to how the price may move in the weeks ahead. Potential factors include index inclusion decisions and the expiry of lockup periods restricting early investors from selling their shares. These events can influence the share price in either direction, and as with any newly listed stock, volatility may be elevated in the early stages of trading.
SPCX CFD trading — key features
Trade the momentum
IPO listings can experience sharp price moves. CFDs allow you to react quickly to market movements without the need to buy shares outright.
Leverage

Long or Short

No shares ownership
You don't need to buy or own SpaceX shares to gain exposure to its price movements.
