  • How to Invest in SpaceX Before Its 2026 IPO
    May 2, 2026, 6:31 AM EDT. SpaceX plans to go public in 2026, targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation and aiming to raise $75 billion, with a significant 30% of shares allocated to retail investors, CEO Elon Musk said. For investors eager to gain exposure before the IPO, two options stand out. Accredited investors can buy into the SoFi and Templum Cosmos Fund, which offers 100% investment in SpaceX but requires meeting strict financial criteria. Alternatively, the ERShares Private-Public Crossover ETF (XOVR) provides about 23.5% exposure to SpaceX alongside tech and AI giants like Nvidia and Alphabet, accessible to all investors but with a 0.75% management fee. These paths offer early opportunities to participate in SpaceX's growth ahead of the anticipated market debut.
