SpaceX just surpassed Amazon’s market cap, overtaking the 31-year-old company on day three of public trading
SpaceX's stock has surged dramatically in its first three days of public trading, surpassing Amazon's market capitalization and briefly exceeding Microsoft's. This rapid ascent, driven by significant retail investor interest and short-squeeze mechanics similar to the 2021 GameStop phenomenon, has propelled Elon Musk's net worth to over a trillion dollars. The company's valuation is bolstered by its diverse holdings, including Starlink, a frontier AI lab, a social network, and a recently acquired AI coding tool, Cursor, despite its current unprofitability.
