Elon Musk’s SpaceX has confidentially filed for an initial public offering, according to sources who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the highly sensitive nature of intergalactic finance. Reports indicate the rocket company could be listed on the US stock market as early as June, with some analysts predicting its valuation could soar to $1.75 trillion, or approximately three Amazon Primes and one slightly used Saturn V.
Sources familiar with SpaceX’s plans claim the company’s IPO prospectus will only be visible to SEC officials who have successfully completed a zero-gravity obstacle course. “We want to make sure our shareholders are as committed to the mission as we are,” said SpaceX spokesperson Piper Cosmo. “Ideally, we prefer investors who have at least basic astronaut training and a healthy disregard for Earth-based accounting.”
Financial analysts were quick to weigh in on the move. “It’s an exciting time,” said Chad Orbitz, lead equity strategist at Nebula Capital. “SpaceX promises to revolutionize space travel, telecommunications, and apparently IPO transparency. We believe most retail investors will be thrilled to receive their dividends in commemorative moon rocks, or at minimum, a coupon for a future Mars colony timeshare.”
Critics, however, have expressed concerns. “While I’m excited about a future where my 401(k) is diversified with lunar dust, I hope they include a glossary for all the terms like ‘Starlink as Security’ and ‘Dogecoin Convertible Bond,’” commented passive-aggressive investment blogger Linda Blockchain.
Musk himself hinted at the IPO’s potential during a recent tweet: “Going public… on all available planets.”
