SpaceX's post-IPO performance is serving as a cautionary tale for the broader AI and frontier technology sectors. Despite raising $85.7 billion, the stock's rapid decline to $155 suggests that investors are unwilling to support a 109x price-to-sales multiple in a high-interest-rate environment. The company's $4.9 billion loss in 2025 underscores the massive capital requirements of its satellite-based AI infrastructure business, which is now being cited as a reason for OpenAI's IPO hesitation.
