  • SpaceX IPO Set to Challenge US Stock Market Rally Amid Inflation Fears
    June 5, 2026, 5:27 PM EDT. The highly anticipated SpaceX initial public offering (IPO) is expected next week, aiming to raise $75 billion at a valuation of $1.75 trillion. This blockbuster IPO, the largest ever, coincides with a cautious U.S. stock market facing inflation concerns and potential Federal Reserve interest rate hikes. The S&P 500 fell after nine weeks of gains, pressured by strong jobs data and a semiconductor selloff. SpaceX's diverse business spans rockets, satellite communications, and AI computing. Despite a $4.94 billion net loss in 2025, revenues rose 33% to $18.67 billion. Market watchers see the IPO as a key litmus test for investor appetite amid geopolitical tensions and the growing AI sector, with more mega IPOs from AI firms Anthropic and OpenAI expected to follow.
