SpaceX IPO sparks $2 trillion tech rout as AI hype meets reality
TL;DR
June’s tech rout erased about $2.3 trillion in value from the Magnificent Seven as AI optimism cooled, even as SpaceX raised $75 billion in an IPO that valued the company at $2.1 trillion. Investors question whether AI-driven growth will materialize and whether hyperscalers’ data-center bets will pay off, with capital increasingly flowing to chipmakers like Nvidia. Retail investors took about a quarter of SpaceX’s stock, prompting meme-stock concerns, while analysts urge diversification and defensive bets in AI infrastructure amid higher interest rates and geopolitical tensions.
