June 28, 2026, 2:35 PM EDT. After SpaceX's historic IPO on June 12, 2026, shares fell over 23% in days. Cathie Wood's ARK Invest seized the dip, investing more than $30 million on June 22 to add over 210,000 shares, on top of $400 million spent at IPO pricing. Wood views SpaceX not just as a rocket company, but a disruptive player in orbital edge computing and satellite internet, with a potential valuation up to $3.1 trillion. ARK highlights Starlink's shift from high cash burn to ultra-high gross margin profitability, projecting significant future revenue. Despite short-term volatility, Wood remains bullish on SpaceX's long-term growth driven by space-based data processing and energy infrastructure.
