SpaceX Down $800 Billion From Peak

SpaceX shares remained under pressure, putting the company on track for its largest single-day decline since going public. The stock fell more than 10%, extending a three-day losing streak and pushing its valuation further below the $3 trillion level reached shortly after its debut.

The latest selloff has erased nearly $800 billion in market value. Despite the decline, shares still trade above the initial public offering price, highlighting how sharply the stock rallied during its first weeks on the market.

SPCX climbed to nearly $225 following its June 12 debut before momentum faded. Shares recently changed hands around $165, leaving early IPO investors in profit but placing pressure on traders who entered after the initial surge.

Profit-Taking and Share Supply Concerns Weigh on SpaceX Stock

The recent decline in SpaceX shares is mostly a price correction after the stock’s early gains post-IPO. However, other factors also appear to be influencing the stock performance.

These include the report that the company is preparing for its first bond sale, which could be in the $20 billion range. SpaceX has now confirmed the reports in a filing, noting that the funds are to repay outstanding from a bridge loan and other expenses.

However, the company did not state how much it hopes to raise in funding from the debt markets.

Analysts have also noted that SpaceX could face more selling pressure in the coming months due to upcoming equity unlocks. A 20% insider share unlock is scheduled for August after the company’s earnings announcement.

Other unlocks are also coming up in the next few months, including two 7% share unlocks in August and September, as well 10% share unlocks if the stock trades 30% above its IPO.

With all the potential increase in SPCX trading shares over the next three months, investors might be pricing in the incoming selling pressure.

SpaceX Inks $6 Billion Deal with Reflection

The current pullback has not altered SpaceX’s long-term growth narrative, but it has highlighted valuation concerns after the stock’s explosive debut.

Investors now face a balance between strong business fundamentals and the prospect of increased share supply over the coming months. The bond offering, insider unlocks, and broader market sentiment will likely remain key drivers of price action.

For now, the stock appears to be undergoing a repricing phase after its post-IPO surge. Whether buyers return aggressively may depend on upcoming earnings results and the company’s ability to convert its expanding AI infrastructure business into sustained revenue growth.
