Advisers involved in the preparation predict the company could try to raise more than $75 billion in the IPO, the report said, citing a person with direct knowledge of the plans. The individual investor portion might exceed 20%, but the percentage has yet to be finalized, as per the report.

I am so in on space x. I didn’t buy google when they launched because it was too expensive. Not gonna make that mistake again.
That’s exactly how I feel. And I really believe in that company. I’m not a huge fan of his brain, computer interface research lab thing, but I love the rockets and I wish him the best so yeah, I will definitely put some money aside for that.
I hear you on Elons brain hacking escapades. Also his data centers are a huge blight on the US but that’s not just an Elon thing. Space X is something i really believe in. If anyone is gonna get us off this rock, it’s Elon and Space X.
“I didn’t buy google when they launched because it was too expensive.”
The SpaceX IPO price is likely to be priced for large institutional investors as well. I wouldn’t mind investing in SpaceX.
Any bets on IPO price before the bell and IPO at closing time?
The only way I know of to own the stock now is via the BFGIX, one of Ron Baron’s funds — but the minimum investment is $1 million, and there’s an annual fee. There’s also a history of large capital appreciation.
One estimate I saw for the pre-IPO private market share price is $851.44 but even if true, still going to be worth grabbing some, IMHO.
Elon Musk is discussing allocating as much as 30% of SpaceX's initial public offering to individual investors -- at least three times the usual retail slice... and underscores Musk's determination to shape both who owns SpaceX and how its shares trade once public, said people close to the structure, who asked not to be identified because the process is confidential.
Musk's plan, relayed to Wall Street by SpaceX Chief Financial Officer Bret Johnsen, pairs the oversized retail allocation with an unusually hands‑on approach to choosing bankers, the people said. SpaceX is assigning some firms narrowly defined roles based on personal relationships and past ties rather than allowing them to broadly compete for investors, they added, cautioning that the plan is not final and could change...
As part of that effort, Musk handpicked Bank of America (BAC.N) to focus on domestic retail distribution, according to four people familiar with the matter...
In public listings, companies typically allocate no more than 5% to 10% of shares to retail investors.
Tech news website The Information has previously reported that allocation to individual investors could exceed 20%, with defined roles for banks...

I was hoping this was going to a lot cheaper to buy!
20% allotted to individuals and the rest to institutions.
Analysts project the opening price could land between $700 and $1,200 per share.
Listing Timeline: The confidential filing this month is intended to keep the company on track for a public listing as early as June 2026
SpaceX is targeting filing confidentially for an initial public offering as soon as next month, according to people familiar with the matter.
The company expects to submit its draft IPO registration to the US Securities and Exchange Commission in March, which would keep it on track for a June listing.
The Starbase, Texas-based firm expects to submit its draft IPO registration to the US Securities and Exchange Commission in March, the people said.
Such a move would keep it on track for a June listing, making it the first of what could be a trio of mega-IPOs, with OpenAI and Anthropic PBC potentially coming after.
The exact IPO stock price for SpaceX has not been set yet, as the company is only now preparing to file its prospectus
. However, based on current market valuations and private secondary trading data as of March 25, 2026, analysts have provided the following estimates:
Estimated IPO Price Range: Analysts project the opening price could land between $700 and $1,200 per share.
This range assumes a total market valuation between $1.5 trillion and $1.75 trillion.
Some ultra-bullish forecasts suggest the price could even approach $1,500 to $2,000 per share if demand creates a significant “day 1 premium”.
Current Private Market Price: Before the official IPO, shares are trading on private secondary markets at the following rates:
Forge Global: $600.74 per share (as of March 25, 2026).
Nasdaq Private Market: Approximately $608.99 per share.
Hiive: $851.44 per share.
Valuation Benchmarks:
The most recent internal “tender offer” (where employees sell shares back to the company) was reportedly conducted at $421 per share, implying an $800 billion valuation.
The jump from the $421 private price to the estimated $700+ IPO price reflects the massive investor enthusiasm for Starlink’s growth and the company’s new space-based AI data center initiatives.
The final price will be determined by the underwriters—including Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs—just days before the stock begins trading, which is currently targeted for June 2026
wow that opening price is pretty steep.
