    SpaceX Falls Below IPO Price as Debt Yields Rise to 7.5%

    Question

    SpaceX Falls Below IPO Price as Debt Yields Rise to 7.5%

    Direct answer

    SpaceX's post-IPO honeymoon has ended abruptly as both equity and credit markets signal caution. The stock, which debuted with high expectations, is now trading below its initial offering range. More concerning for institutional investors is the performance of its 2056 bonds. A 7.5% yield for a company of SpaceX's scale suggests that the market is demanding a higher risk premium for its long-term, capital-intensive projects in a higher-rate environment.
