The stock opened at $150 — an 11% pop — and closed the first day at $160.95, up 19% . By mid-June, shares traded in the $201–$213 range, giving the company a market capitalization estimated between $2.6 trillion and $3 trillion . The IPO valued the company at roughly $1.77 trillion at the offer price, expanding past $2.1 trillion on the first trading day .
Note on the $2.4 trillion figure: No source in the available evidence cites exactly $2.4 trillion as a market cap. The $2.4 trillion figure may be an intermediate analyst estimate not confirmed in the search results.
FTSE Russell confirmed that SpaceX was added to the FTSE Global Equity Index Series (GEIS), including the FTSE All-World and FTSE World indexes, effective June 22, 2026 — just 10 days after the June 12 IPO . This was made possible by a fast-entry rule change FTSE Russell adopted on May 26, 2026, weeks before the IPO, allowing newly listed mega-cap companies with investable market capitalizations above the Russell Top 500 cutoff to be added after as few as five trading days .
As of mid-to-late June 2026, the spread across analyst targets was extreme, reflecting fundamental disagreement about what SpaceX actually is:
| Analyst / Firm | Rating | Price Target | Core Argument |
|---|---|---|---|
| Morningstar | Sell | $63 (fair value estimate) | Company is "substantially overvalued"; addressable market is ~$129B, not $1.6T |
| CFRA | Sell | $115 | SpaceX's valuation already prices in years of growth |
| New Street | No rating | $165 | Cautious on near-term upside |
| Wolfe Research | Outperform | ~$170–$175 | Sees value but not outpacing AI peers like Anthropic or OpenAI |
| Oppenheimer | Outperform | $190–$250 | No comparable public company operates at scale across launch, broadband, and AI |
| KGI Securities | Outperform | $227 | Highest 12-month target in early coverage |
| Zephirin Group | Bullish | $310 | Extremely bullish on enterprise AI integration and Cursor monetization |
| Arete Research | Buy | $401 (by end of 2027) | Valuation at ~$5.3 trillion, or 80x projected 2027 sales; sees SpaceX as a dominant AI/space platform |
Wall Street consensus average sits roughly between $164 and $185, a level the stock had already traded above by mid-June . KeyBanc Capital Markets declined to issue a specific target but estimated SpaceX's enterprise value at approximately $1.02 trillion in a base-case scenario — less than half its then-current valuation — suggesting the stock already reflects much of its anticipated growth .
The spread from $63 to $401 reflects a fundamental disagreement about how to categorize SpaceX. Morningstar and other bears value the company as an infrastructure and defense contractor with a finite addressable market, while Arete Research and other bulls value it as a dominant AI and space-economy platform with massive expansion potential tied to Cursor, Starlink, and enterprise AI .
The disagreement matters because passive index funds are now forced to buy regardless of valuation: with inclusion in the FTSE All-World, Russell 1000, MSCI World, and other major benchmarks, billions in passive capital will flow into SpaceX shares on schedule — but at prices the analyst community cannot agree on.
SpaceX did not just break IPO records; it forced structural changes to how indexes work. FTSE Russell adopted its fast-entry rule on May 26 explicitly for mega-cap IPOs . Nasdaq rewrote its index rules on May 1 . MSCI confirmed it would apply its existing early-inclusion rules . S&P Global was the only major provider that refused to bend, keeping its 12-month seasoning and profitability requirements intact .
This means index fund investors will gain exposure to SpaceX within weeks of its IPO — through the FTSE All-World (June 22), Russell indexes (June 29), MSCI indexes (June 29), and Nasdaq-100 (early July) — whether the stock is worth $63 or $401 per share.
