SpaceX IPO

If you submitted an indication of interest for SpaceX IPO shares, you will need to confirm your indication of interest after the IPO has officially been priced, which is currently expected tomorrow evening (June 11th). Confirming an indication changes your indication to an order to buy shares at the offer price that SpaceX sets.

Keep in mind that you will have a short window of time to confirm your indication of interest. Some participating brokerages are saying that public the window may open late in the evening and close as early as 7 AM ET the following morning (June 12). Brokerages should notify you once the window opens with time-sensitive instructions on how to affirm your conditional offer. If you fail to confirm your indication of interest, you will not be allocated any IPO shares. Make sure your account is fully funded so you can purchase the shares you are allocated.

You will find out how many IPO shares you have been allocated (if any) the morning of June 12th before the market opens at 9:30 AM ET.

NOTE: Exact timing could change for any of these things, so just keep an eye out for an alerts, notifications or emails from your brokerage.

Worth noting that E*TRADE users won’t need to confirm, and the same goes for Robinhood users (unless the final IPO price is more than 20% above or below the $135 price), but Schwab, Fidelity and SoFi users will need to. Again, just check with your brokerage.

I decided to invest a very modest amount in SpaceX. My broker followed the process laid out by Mr. Merrit above. I submitted my "Expression of Interest" Monday morning. I liquidated other investments so the cash is available for purchase. I anticipated two phone calls from my broker, the first indicating that I have gotten shares and the second to reaffirm my interest if the share price changes from the $135 IPO price. I am not placing a market order to purchase shares when public trading starts.

I don't know if it is too late to get your Indication of Interest or Expression of Interest into your broker. I think that cut-off may have passed.

I received the 400 page prospectus document after indicating interest. It's a fascinating read.

I believe the EOI (Fidelity) or the Conditional Offer to Purchase COPT (Schwab) was ended on Wednesday late afternoon.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

I believe you are right. That was the cut-off at Morgan Stanley.

Monitoring the schwab site for notice.

I always follow my shoe shine boys advice.

I cancelled my COPT submission last night.

I’ll take another look at SPCX in 6 months after all the dust has settled.

[Tell It Right]

I think on June 16 is when options trading on SpaceX will be allowed. That should make it jump bigly.

[captmar-vell]

Yeah, should be sometime tonight (6/11 after 4 PM ET).

At Schwab it will display in the IPO page actions menu column ‘affirm’ versus ‘affirm period’ if I recall correctly.

Must manually approve or it resets to zero. No do-overs.

I remember all the IPO hype over Apple, Google, Amazon and others. I never took the Day 1 IPO plunge before. I wish I had done so before. I really believe SpaceX is going to be a great long-term investment. My order is so small (15 shares) that I expect to get none or at most a couple. My main goal is to give most of them to our kids and grandkid as Christmas presents.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

Morgan Stanley is actually calling investors to get verbal confirmation.

[hole_n_one]

That’s a nice gesture.

Good luck!

BUY BEAR STEARNS

I’ll be looking for a good place to short when the initial euphoria subsides. I’ll buy it back and go long for good when it stops going down and starts to go sideways for a while.

My brokerage account is with Fidelity and my advisor sent me the link about 10 days ago to indicate my interest in the IPO, which I completed, today I received a notice from Fidelity that I must reconfirm my interest between 7pm and midnight tonight and would receive notice tomorrow before market opening if my request has been filled and how many shares, I’ve been allocated if any.

I’ve been with Fidelity for over 40 years, I don’t have millions invested with them, but I do have enough to have my own advisor, which relatively speaking is probably a pittance, but who knows I would like to get a few shares allocated to me.

I hear you. That's often the pattern. Below is one wag's cynical projection (actually, it's a common real-world pattern). When are you looking at jumping in?

As I mentioned up-thread, I'm mainly doing this to gift the shares to kids and grandkid. I figure it's a way to get them more interested in investing and watch one of the most interesting companies in our lifetimes.
