  • SpaceX Shares Face $8 Billion Index Pressure as Stock Dips Post-IPO
    June 28, 2026, 2:18 PM EDT. SpaceX shares, listed under NASDAQ:SPCX, closed at $153.23, up 13.5% from its $135 IPO price but down 32% from the 52-week high. The stock faces significant demand from Russell and Nasdaq-100 index funds, with passive inflows potentially reaching $8.3 billion, about 8% of the trading float. This pressure comes amid a thin public float largely held by insiders, including Elon Musk. While the stock's inclusion in major indexes like Russell U.S. and Nasdaq-100 fuels buy-side demand, analysts caution overvaluation given SpaceX's $4.9 billion loss last year and high price-to-sales multiple near 107. The company is also raising capital via a $25 billion note sale, underscoring ongoing funding needs.
