Elizabeth Warren asks the SEC to delay the SpaceX IPO
Business Insider ^ | 06/10/26 | Brent D. Griffiths

Posted on 06/12/2026 7:10:54 AM PDT by srmanuel

This is just first salvo by liberals against Elon Musk and his business interests has SpaceX goes public today and likely makes him the world's first Trillionaire. If a Democrat wins the Presidency in 2028 look for them to go after Musk and attempt to hurt his businesses, with Elizabeth Warren at the front of the line. Fortunately, she failed in her attempt to get the IPO delayed, happily I was notified a couple of hours before the NASDAQ opened that Fidelity had partially filled my request to participate in the IPO at $135/share.

"The SpaceX IPO creates a new concern: that major stock market indexes are being rigged

How, Liz, how? How is the SpaceX IPO "rigging" the market? Do you have any - any - evidence? Or is it just ipso facto rigging because evil Elon Musk is doing it?

….and they even more passionately hate and despise any individual that makes that success possible.

The standard insider trading deals with politicians was unavailable to them in this public offering. The outrage is strong.

Elizabeth Warren, like her evil twin, Bernie the Bolshevik Sanders, is a multimillionaire. But they still like to put on a show of attacking the rich. And the Dims, ever jealous of success, eat it up.

BINGO!

we have a winner

Pocahontas is just pissed because she and her ilk have not figured out a way to benefit financially from this IPO.

Plus, these IPOs are typically ONLY for rich insiders. Meaning the average schmuck does not have a change to get in on the IPO before it goes public. Only, the very high end accounts at Merrill Lynch or the other big brokerage firms would be allotted shares. These firms only gave these shares to their biggest accounts. That is because they could quadruple their investment in a day.

Lizzy must not be gettin any woppum out of this deal.

Very true, the average person (maybe some employees of the company do) almost never gets a shot at an IPO’s initial offering price—brokers save those for their “best” clients.

Elon must have refused her extortion attempt to squeeze him for an illegal, under-the-table payoff.

That miserable hag truly hates letting the little guy get a fair shot. She is deep in the pockets of the HUGE financial institutions. Look at her raging against crypto, the GENIUS Act and now the Clarity Act.

he is the attack dog of Big Finance blocking the little guy from a fair shot at playing the game.

She sickens me.

There are a lot of lower level employees of corporations that have become wealthy because of IPOs.
A friend of ours neighbor worked at Google. She was a secretary. She had a couple million in Google stock over ten years ago. If she kept it she would be a double digit millionaire today.

My wife does some dog kenneling. Only for people we know.
There is one dog that has been coming to our house since the Great Recession. Bella mostly gets dropped off by the family assistant. Occasionally by the kid. Rarely by the mom. Never by the dad. The dad has not worked for twenty years. He was one of the main investors in Sonos Speakers. When it hit he never had to work again in his life. They live a couple miles away in a multi million home. They also have condo in Boston. They travel about 50% of the time. There are some years Bella has been at our house half the year. $45/day.

“when”? They already ARE in power. Look at the corrupt elections in CaCaLand the other day or Michigan back in 2020.
