SpaceX made the biggest stock market debut in history on Friday after nearly two and a half decades as a private company.
Public trading began around midday with a starting share price of $150, which quickly jumped by a double digit percentage and sent the company’s valuation above $2tn, where it remained through market close.
The company’s initial public offering made the company’s CEO, Elon Musk, the world’s first trillionaire.



SpaceX has not made a profit. Starlink loses them money, too, partially because using LEO has the very wasteful con where the amount of drag makes them fall back to earth.
