SpaceX IPO sees massive retail demand, poised for index inclusion

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Despite offering only a small fraction of its shares, the company has seen substantial retail investor interest, with net buys exceeding those of Coinbase's IPO. Actively managed ETFs have also added SpaceX to their portfolios, and the company is slated for inclusion in major indexes like the Nasdaq 100 and Russell 1000, which will necessitate purchases by passive funds.
