The biggest IPO in history could be just days away, and if Elon Musk gets his way, SpaceX may do more than launch rockets. It could launch the next major leg of this bull market.
Today on Stinchfield, we sit down with Kip Herriage, CEO and founder of Vertical Research Advisory and publisher of VRA Insider, to break down what the SpaceX IPO means for investors, Tesla shareholders, and the broader market. SpaceX is reportedly targeting a staggering valuation approaching $1.75 trillion, making it one of the largest companies on earth the moment it begins trading.
Kip believes this offering could ignite a market melt up unlike anything we’ve seen in years. Why? Because SpaceX sits at the intersection of the three most powerful investment themes of our time: artificial intelligence, space technology, and global communications. Through Starlink, SpaceX has already become far more than a rocket company. Many analysts now view Starlink as the primary revenue engine behind the business.
We’ll also explain the connection to Tesla. For years, Tesla investors have been betting on Elon Musk’s ability to create entirely new industries. If SpaceX debuts successfully, it could reinforce investor confidence across the entire Musk ecosystem and send fresh capital flowing into innovation, technology, AI, and growth stocks. Kip says this isn’t just a SpaceX story. It’s a sentiment story, and sentiment is what drives major bull market advances.
Of course, not everyone is convinced. Some analysts warn that the valuation is extremely aggressive and leaves little room for error. Others expect wild volatility as millions of retail investors rush into the deal.
Could SpaceX become the catalyst that sends stocks soaring into year end? Kip Herriage joins us to explain why he believes the answer is yes.
