The @SpaceX IPO narrative is far bigger than rockets.
The S-1 frames a much broader thesis: a leading launch platform, Starlink cash generation, AI infrastructure, orbital compute, and deep vertical integration. This creates a rare multi-platform growth story, but also a difficult underwriting question: how much should investors pay today for multiple platforms that still require massive capex, near-flawless execution, and long-dated monetization?
The highlights below unpack what we know today about the @SpaceX IPO beyond the surface-level growth story 🧵

The valuation asks investors to underwrite massive optionality.
At a ~$1.75T target IPO valuation and ~$18.7B of annual revenue, SpaceX would trade at roughly 94x sales.
The bull case is: launch dominance, Starlink cash generation, AI infrastructure, orbital compute, and massive strategic optionality.
The bear case is equally clear: heavy investment burn, Starship risk, speculative AI monetization, governance complexity, and limited margin of safety at target valuation.
Nice interview with Jimmy at Heimdall Capital where we get into the nitty gritty on collateral, dollar shortages, the Fed pivot, and, of course, if there really is too many Treasuries.
