SpaceX is going public — but don’t expect Amazon- or Apple-level gains. Today’s IPOs are often a payout moment for insiders, not the start of major value creation for public investors, according to a scholar who analyzed over 1,000 listings.

SpaceX and OpenAI IPOs are unlikely to bring skyrocketing returns that Amazon and Apple did, as companies go public later in life and early investors cash out

In the old days, companies like Apple and Amazon went public early to access cash to grow. These days, soon-to-be-public companies are already flush with cash from private finance.

The Twitter Corpse in the SpaceX Basement What no one is saying out loud: This IPO is also a massive bailout. Musk’s Twitter purchase was a $44 billion disaster. The solution? A financial matryoshka, like Russian nesting dolls. First, Twitter was packaged into xAI; then, in February, SpaceX took over xAI—including the chronically loss-making social network X and the chatbot Grok. The Twitter fiasco was first dissolved into xAI and has since been dissolved into SpaceX, much like Russian nesting dolls, heise writes bluntly. SpaceX is supposed to absorb the losses, while the glitz of the rockets covers up the dark spots. Translated with DeepL.com (free version) Die Twitter-Leiche im SpaceX-Keller Was niemand laut sagt: Dieser IPO ist auch eine gigantische Rettungsaktion. Musks Twitter-Kauf war ein 44-Milliarden-Dollar-Desaster. Die Lösung? Eine Finanz-Matrjoschka, wie russische Holzpuppen. Erst wurde Twitter in xAI verpackt, im Februar übernahm SpaceX dann xAI – inklusive des chronisch defizitären Social Network X und des Chatbots Grok. Das Twitter-Fiasko wurde nach Art russischer Holzpuppen zunächst in xAI und inzwischen in SpaceX aufgelöst, schreibt heise unverblümt. SpaceX soll die Verluste absorbieren, während der Glanz der Raketen die dunklen Flecken überdeckt. — MSN

SpaceX beantragt Börsengang unter Verschluss

SpaceX hat seinen Börsengang beantragt. Offiziell darf das niemand wissen. Denn ein GröBaZ will gut vorbereitet sein.
