I’ve seen some interesting updates about SpaceX lately. Apparently, Musk would be seriously leaning toward a stock market listing on the Nasdaq rather than the NYSE. Four well-informed sources confirm that the New York Stock Exchange is also trying to attract the project, but for now, SpaceX hasn’t made a definitive decision with anyone.

What’s notable is that SpaceX is really targeting rapid integration into the Nasdaq 100 index. This has become a strategic priority for the company, and Nasdaq has clearly understood it. They just proposed a new rule last month—something like a “fast-track” for large companies that are coming in. If the market capitalization of a new company ends up in the top 40 of the index’s current components, it can join the Nasdaq 100 in less than a month after its IPO. This is unprecedented.

For SpaceX, we’re talking about a valuation around $1.75 trillion. If that comes to pass, it would be the sixth-largest valuation in the United States. Honestly, that’s enormous. The IPO could happen as early as June according to rumors, but nothing has been officially confirmed.

The thing that interests me is how the market will react to an offering of this scale. SpaceX going public would be a strong signal that even the biggest innovation projects are starting to become financially accessible. Worth keeping a close eye on.
