SpaceX's stock has recently traded below its IPO price of $135, a notable event given its prior strong performance. This decline is occurring as lock-up periods are set to expire soon, potentially leading to a significant increase in available shares and further impacting the stock price.
“When we came in here on Thursday afternoon, SpaceX was like one thirty two. Yeah, is below the IPO price.”
“They priced the IPO at one thirty five, which is not a price that was come to during IPO marketing, but just the price that Elon Musk made up apparently, And they priced it one thirty five, and the stock immediately traded up like exactly twenty percent, which is exactly what you want in an IPO.”
“The lockups start releasing after earnings, which is like they haven't said their earnings day, but it's like early to mid August.”
