SpaceX Crashes to Record Low of $115: Stock Has Performed Worse Than 90% of Billion-Dollar IPOs Since 2009

Analysts tracked by CNN keep a $225 median price target as investors weigh delayed launches, rising spending and a staggered lockup schedule.

  • SpaceX shares have fallen to a record low of about $115, marking a 25.5% decline since the company's June 12 public debut.
  • A Starship rocket launch delay on July 16 and looming share lockup expiration in August have compounded pressure on SpaceX, which reported losses of nearly $5B over the past year.
  • Of 31 analysts covering the stock, 27 recommend buying SpaceX at an average price target of $242, while Cathie Wood's firm ARK Invest has been buying steadily, acquiring more than 620,000 shares in July alone.
  • Short sellers have piled in as the stock lost more than $1 trillion in market value in barely six weeks, with investors now focused on SpaceX's first public earnings results due August 4.
  • ARK Invest models a potential $3.1 trillion valuation for SpaceX by 2030, contingent on the company building out AI infrastructure in space over the next 12 months.
