Equity price volatility via supply-demand imbalance as low-float shares meet insider selling.
Extended read
SpaceX's post-IPO surge to a $2.4 trillion valuation has been aided by a very low public float, forcing passive funds to compete for limited shares. This dynamic is expected to shift significantly as the lockup period expires. The company has implemented a staggered release schedule, with the first major tranches of insider shares becoming eligible for sale in August. Analysts warn that the influx of supply could pressure the stock price by Halloween.
