00:00

{"text":[[{"start":12.35,"text":"SpaceX shares soared almost 20 per cent on Friday in the biggest stock market debut in history, giving Elon Musk’s rocket and AI group a valuation in excess of $2tn and making him the world’s first trillionaire."}],[{"start":26.2,"text":"The group’s shares closed at $160.95, valuing SpaceX at about $2.1tn and placing it as the sixth-largest public company in the world. Trading activity was vigorous with more than $80bn of shares trading hands."}],[{"start":42.2,"text":"SpaceX raised $75bn in a record-breaking initial public offering on Thursday evening amid blockbuster investor demand for companies linked to the AI boom. The fundraising haul could rise to $86bn if underwriters exercise a so-called greenshoe option to sell additional shares."}],[{"start":61.800000000000004,"text":"“It’s hard to believe that a little company that started in a warehouse in El Segundo is now going public [in] the largest IPO ever,” Musk said at SpaceX’s Starbase facility in Texas as he rang the Nasdaq’s opening bell."}],[{"start":77.35000000000001,"text":"“If people had told me this was going to happen, I was like, man, you must be smoking some really good crack, because I think this company is going to fail.”"}],[{"start":86.85000000000001,"text":"The warm Wall Street reception sets the stage for Claude maker Anthropic and ChatGPT developer OpenAI, which are preparing their own trillion-dollar-plus listings this year."}],[{"start":98.80000000000001,"text":"It also hands Musk a vast financial windfall, with his 42 per cent stake in SpaceX valued at more than $800bn. Combined with his $280bn holding in electric vehicle maker Tesla, his wealth has now surpassed $1tn, equivalent to about a third of the market value of the UK’s FTSE 100 index. "}],[{"start":120.75000000000001,"text":"SpaceX drew orders for more than three times the amount on offer in its IPO as asset managers, sovereign wealth funds, hedge funds and retail investors clamoured for shares, according to bankers who worked on the listing."}],[{"start":null,"text":"

"}],[{"start":134,"text":"Individual investors placed orders for more than $100bn, and were allocated 20 per cent to 25 per cent of the SpaceX shares sold, they added."}],[{"start":143.2,"text":"Retail traders also rushed to take part in Friday’s market debut, with market-maker Citadel Securities noting record activity among individual investors in the IPO auction that took place prior to the first trade. "}],[{"start":156.1,"text":"The more than 20 investment banks working on the IPO shared a fee pool of $500mn — by far the largest M&A windfall of all time — with lead underwriters Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley taking $100mn each, people familiar with the split said."}],[{"start":173.35,"text":"Investors were undeterred by the lofty financial projections pitched by SpaceX’s underwriters during the IPO roadshow nor by one of the most lax corporate governance regimes in history. "}],[{"start":184.5,"text":"SpaceX plans to use the IPO proceeds for a range of ambitious projects, from its skyscraper-sized reusable Starship rocket, founding a 1mn-strong colony on Mars, starting a lunar economy to building a network of orbital AI data centres capable of delivering vast amounts of computing capacity. "}],[{"start":203.15,"text":"Musk stands to receive even more stock if he hits these moonshot targets and increases SpaceX’s valuation to $7.5tn."}],[{"start":null,"text":"
"}],[{"start":212.4,"text":"A portion must also go towards repaying a $20bn bridge loan the group took out in March to back its merger with Musk’s lossmaking AI start-up, xAI, and social media platform X."}],[{"start":224.25,"text":"Becoming a leader in AI is central to SpaceX’s investment case and to justify its steep valuation. Its IPO prospectus claimed a $28.5tn addressable market and analysts at underwriter Goldman have predicted a 100-fold surge in its AI revenues to $322bn by 2030."}],[{"start":245.5,"text":"Morgan Stanley also estimated that overall revenue would increase 180-fold to $3.4tn by 2040, up from $18.7bn last year. Earnings are forecast by the bank to flip from a $4.9bn loss in 2025 to $2.7tn in the same timeframe."}],[{"start":265.7,"text":"Over the next two weeks, SpaceX stock will receive a tailwind as passive index-tracking funds linked to Nasdaq, FTSE and MSCI indices start to buy shares after it was fast-tracked into the benchmarks.
