Elon Musk’s Texas-based SpaceX, which intends to colonize Mars and launch artificial intelligence (AI) data centers into orbit, will allow investors to purchase and sell shares for the first time on Friday.
It will rank SpaceX among the top 10 largest listed companies in the United States and is expected to be the largest public share offering ever. Individual investors are able to purchase a larger percentage of those shares than is customary, but due to their size, many investment funds will also acquire a stake in SpaceX.
Musk and other private investors now hold SpaceX, but they are initiating an IPO, or initial public offering. The corporation will begin trading millions of additional shares on the stock exchange on Friday.
The IPO seeks to collect a substantial sum of money at least $75 billion and offers investors the opportunity to invest in a company that engages in everything from satellite communication and space exploration to the social media platform X and the contentious AI platform Grok. SpaceX is distinct from Tesla, Musk’s best-known business, though the two are expected to merge next year.
