SpaceX Prepares Potentially World's Largest IPO, Could Secure $SPCX Ticker
SpaceX is preparing an initial public offering following its merger with artificial intelligence company xAI. Measured by the amount raised, the deal could become the world's largest IPO and would give retail investors their first opportunity to invest directly in the growth of Elon Musk's space transportation and satellite network businesses.
As of July 20, 2026, Tuttle Capital had reportedly relinquished the “SPCX” ticker for SpaceX to use in its listing. The company is said to be planning to raise $75 billion and reserve 20% to 30% of the shares for retail investors, but it has yet to announce a formal filing or listing date.
