SpaceX stock tumbles 23% from IPO high

financeJun 23, 2026362,965

SpaceX shares fell 23% from their post-IPO high, wiping out early gains for many retail buyers. The slide came just 10 days after the company’s blockbuster IPO and included a 16.4% one-day drop on Monday after smaller declines earlier in the week. Shares now trade only about $5 above the $150 IPO price, leaving many individual and institutional investors roughly flat or in the red. The swing matters because it strips billions in paper gains from pensions and retail accounts and raises questions about whether SpaceX’s IPO valuation matched demand for its satellite and other ventures.

You mean to tell me, the IPO was rigged to reward the initial shareholders, and the Elon fanboys, who drove up the value got fucked? That's as crazy as a Tesla driving though a house and killing a woman watching Wheel of Fortune in her living room. The Wheel of Fortune stuff was probably made up

I'm surprised it took this long, tbh... I was expecting nothing more than a rug pull.

They had been warned ... Elon companies do not make profits, he profits by getting all sorts of federal money and makes it his ...

Still way overvalued. I saw someone else say that the IPO was like paying $100,000,000 for a vending machine that makes $400/month. If we lived in a reasonable world, it'd be down 99.9% at least.

As a non-SpaceX investor, this pleases me.

You mean he’s just a common billionaire? He must be so embarrassed.🙈

His stock is like his rockets - whole lotta flash, then liftoff, then..."was that supposed to go sideways like that?"

Key here is average investors It’s like crypto investing A pyramid scheme

It was a PR stunt. SpaceX isn't needed. Elon Musk has never been in a rocket yet convinced our Congress to give him billions to experiment. Humans can't live on Mars.

yet, we are enrolled in the space junk lottery pick up my shit pesant.

They want to get rid of small investors. Every conglomerate is doing it. They call them “the spoilers”.

They were warned, they were the exit liquidity on this deal ...

I bet I know some of these stupid people. There is just no end to them being suckered out of their hard earned cash. 🙄

Couldn’t happen to a better group of people.

This pharmacy account on FB was pushing their followers to buy up Space X stock last week I warned ppl not to cuz Space X is just a govt funded investment scam. Dude was acting like I’m petty about Elon’s “Success” Anyway .. fucking crickets today I hope I got some to listen

Boycott all the billionaires. They could house the poor and feed the hungry, open new hospitals, and still have millions left. But they don’t!

Draw your own conclusions about Muskrat's Washington contacts and Pentagon contracts. HINT: It's a straight line.

The only thing that got it going was these idiots rushing to buy. Take a metric ton of cow 💩 and apply the same purchasing power and guess what happens? People are just so gullible these days.

"orchestrated" being the operative word here. This was never about SpaceX's real value but its owner's trillionaire obsession & investors' thrill. The stock market is a mix of gamblers & insider traders. Handelsblatt reported yesterday that a record no. now buy shares on credit. That's dangerous.

Rlynner2

You mean Elon and his pals suckered retail with the bag? Big shocker. Legit analysts at Morningstar say SPCX is worth $60.

Margo Channing2

I don't mean too be cruel --- forget that. Yes I do. Anyone who would invest in Musk deserves to lose everything.

GBsMimi💙📎🦋2

I love that for them

curmudgeon2

Don't worry they will get billions more of our tax dollars.

ErwinSchrodinger2

Still too high for a money losing company with nothing but sci fi fantasies to lay out a path to profitability. And the Trump gravy train that gives them most of their revenue has an expiry date.

cabanaboy.bsky.social2

It has a long long way to go Wait until the first quarterly report shows they lose money every quarter Even long term it’s unclear they can make profit on Space launches

Tom BunchOfNumbers2

it will go even lower

greenglassworm2

This is tragic. Retirement is more and more out of reach and you can guarantee people bet on this for that purpose. Elon can't lose. Everyone - literally everyone - else does. Fuck these people. Fuck oligarchy. Fuck stock market manipulation and fuck Musk.

So he is not a trillionaire anymore??

Elon Musk & his bankers executed a securities fraud - it was obvious that there wouldn’t be enough shares (less than 5%) for the hyped-up demand, so he and the bankers made a fortune off of the public… Musk has one skill, and that is doing his PTBarnum routine to take money from the American people

Timeflies2

Im sure the insider trading has worked just great.

i see where another of teslas' self driving cars smashed into a house & killed a woman.

GregSergienko2

My general rule on IPOs: if the insiders thought the company was really worth its sale price, they wouldn't sell it.

kellykellygirl.bsky.social2

Most of the tech stocks IPO go up day one and two then slide back to original price or lower from there.

Wait until the next rocket blows up on the pad.
