At this valuation level, SpaceX would become the seventh-largest US listed company, even overtaking Tesla. The transaction would significantly exceed the record previously held by Alibaba and would constitute the largest IPO ever conducted in the United States. This valuation is notably supported by the completion of several recent strategic operations and the group's growth prospects in space activities and artificial intelligence via xAI.

The IPO comes as several other AI leaders, including Anthropic and OpenAI, are also preparing their debut on the financial markets. Filings submitted by SpaceX revealed several billion dollars in cumulative losses as well as the significance of the stake retained by Elon Musk. Furthermore, speculation regarding a potential tie-up with Tesla is mounting, with several sources indicating that the hypothesis of a merger is regularly discussed within both companies.
