    SpaceX Trades Near IPO Price as Musk Targets $1T Revenue by 2030

    Question

    SpaceX Trades Near IPO Price as Musk Targets $1T Revenue by 2030

    Direct answer

    SpaceX has retreated 35% from its post-IPO peak, currently hovering near its $135 opening price. Despite the price action, Elon Musk has accelerated the company's revenue timeline, targeting $1 trillion by 2030. Crucially for the broader tech sector, SpaceX has emerged as a massive AI infrastructure spender, committing to Nvidia's Vera Rubin architecture for its internal AI buildout, which now accounts for 86% of its total capex.
