SpaceX, the company founded in 2002 by Elon Musk with the utopian dream of sending humans to Mars, became one of the world’s leading tech giants on Friday. The company, which specializes in launching rockets into space, communications satellites, and artificial intelligence, has made the biggest stock market debut in history. In the absence of an official listing, trading on the Nasdaq suggests a price of between $170 and $175 per share, up to 30% above the $135 at which the shares were sold. This valuation places the company at approximately $2.25 trillion, making it the sixth-largest company in the world by market capitalization. It was the largest initial public offering in history, ahead of Saudi oil giant Aramco’s 2019 debut, which raised about $29 billion.
