  • SpaceX Shares Surge After Record IPO: Key Risks and Rewards for Investors
    June 13, 2026, 7:38 AM EDT. SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) debuted on June 12 with the largest IPO ever, opening at $150 and closing at $160.95, a 19.22% increase from the $135 offering price. Elon Musk became the world's first trillionaire after the event. The company commands a leading position with its reusable rockets and the Starlink satellite internet service, which generated $11.2 billion in 2025.
