SpaceX IPO Sparks Debate Over Musk-Fueled Valuation

TL;DR Summary
SpaceX’s highly anticipated IPO is a litmus test for investor appetite in a founder-led, vastly valued company, with Musk retaining roughly 80-85% of voting rights. While some analysts see meaningful upside (New Street Research hints at ~$165 per share and about $2.3 trillion enterprise value after the Cursor deal), skeptics warn the $1.75 trillion valuation is aggressive and hinges on long-term space opportunities and Musk’s leadership, even as Nasdaq eases mega-IPO rules and S&P 500 entry remains restricted.
