# SpaceXRoadshowHighlightsAsteroidMiningSo SpaceX just casually dropped asteroid mining into their IPO roadshow video. 🚀

Not a sci-fi movie. Not a fever dream. An actual, unproven business model—mentioned by their CFO Bret Johnsen—as part of a $1.78 trillion valuation story.

Let that sink in.

On June 4, SpaceX released a 17-minute roadshow video ahead of their June 11 pricing (ticker: SPCX). And while most companies talk about quarterly earnings or market share, SpaceX is talking about orbital data centers, point-to-point space transport, and yes—digging rocks from asteroids for profit.

But here’s where it gets real:

They also shared hard numbers. 🧾

📈 Gross margin target: from 49% → ~70%

📉 Net margin: from -26% → ~45%

That’s not just a vision. That’s a turnaround story wrapped in a moonshot.

The company is aiming to raise up to $75 billion** at a target valuation of **$1.78 trillion.

Let me repeat that: trillion with a T.

Whether asteroid mining becomes the next gold rush or remains a beautiful dream, one thing’s clear—SpaceX is no longer just a launch provider. They’re positioning themselves as the infrastructure for everything beyond Earth.

And they’re taking public market investors along for the ride.
