SpaceX stock dips below IPO price ahead of Starship test launch · 2 sources tracked

SpaceX's stock price has fallen below its initial IPO valuation of $135 per share, experiencing a steady decline since its June 12th public offering. This volatility is partly due to a small public float and broader market deflation in tech stocks. The company's performance is being closely watched as it could influence the upcoming IPOs of AI companies like Anthropic and OpenAI. SpaceX is also preparing for a critical test launch of its Starship rocket, which has a history of failures and is expected to end in a simulated landing explosion. AI

IMPACT SpaceX's stock performance and upcoming Starship launch could influence investor sentiment for future AI company IPOs like Anthropic and OpenAI.
