SpaceX stock is down to $124, for a while having been down to $120.
From having started at $135 and reaching $160 at the end of the first day.
And no surprise. It's a company that barely has any real business and is run by a brain damaged techbro fascist who's making his business decisions based on drug induced delusions.
There's still so much more way to go until the stock price reaches its true value. At 13 billion shares, it should be under $1.
Nailed it!

* **Top Post (Elon Musk):** Elon Musk writes, "Mamdani has built nothing. He is a taker, never a maker."
* **Bottom Reply (Jay Ponti):** Jay Ponti responds directly to Musk, stating: "Eberhard and Tarpenning founded Tesla. You didn’t invent eBay or Twitter. Your wealth is from acquisitions, hostile takeovers, and stealing credit. Everything you have was built by workers and you fight to keep from unionizing while you receive govt welfare. You are a parasite."

One of the famous dead commies -- I forget which one -- said that a capitalist is someone who'll sell you a rope to hang himself with.
Modern corporations will sell you dangerous and expensive crap that will make the planet uninhabitable for humans, if there's shareholder value in doing so.

If (or more realistically, when) SpaceX or another techbro-led company has a major 'incident' and destroys low earth orbit for generations, meaning humans cannot leave the Earth's surface, do we sue them? Seriously, what kind of compensation is that for all of us? Fuck unregulated #capitalism and all capitalists.
They also list 4 "disposal failures" which are satellites that died before SpaceX purposefully chucked them into the atmosphere. This includes Starlink 34343 which either exploded or got hit by debris a couple months ago. https://keeptrack.space/deep-dive/starlink-34343
4 out of thousands of launched satellites is pretty good. But when you have nearly 11,000 satellites, you have to operate COMPLETELY PERFECTLY every minute of every day, forever.
Please don't fuck up more than you already have, SpaceX.

“Those looking for signs of stumbling ( #MarketCrash ) may have found confirmation after a series of developments on Monday. The stock market drop started when #Google -parent, #Alphabet, had its worst day on the market in over a year. A pair of high-profile #AIResearchers left the company last week, worrying investors. Alphabet’s share price had dropped 5% by closing Monday.
#ElonMusk’s #SpaceX, which debuted on the market on 12 June to much fanfare, dropped 16% on Monday as the company’s post-initial public offering (IPO) boost continued to ebb. On Monday, the company announced it is looking to raise $20bn in a bond sale, even after the company gained more than $85bn through its IPO, sparking concerns over the massive cost of the company’s projects.
“ #SpaceX is not yet part of the #Nasdaq indices, but the fact that it is jumping on the bond train to fund excessive #AI and infrastructure spending revives earlier concerns that #BigTech may be spending too much on #AIInfrastructure and increasingly financing that spending through debt,” said Ipek Ozkardeskaya, a senior analyst at Swissquote, noting that #MorganStanley has estimated that AI-related #borrowing will surpass $500bn this year”

And in the 8th round China delivers a devastating blow to the US using GLM-5.2 that only has 40B active parameters and 753B total params but still beating Gemini 3.1 Pro and almost on GPT 5.5 xhigh levels but costing only half as much.
Absolutely fantastic how china’s labs manage to keep up with US labs considering how hard the US tries to prevent them to get their hands on GPUs.
And even more importantly China prevents the US to capitalize on the AI hype by just giving these SOTA models away for free for everyone that can run them, including US inferencer what creates a super competitive market.
As long as Chinese labs publish their models, the big American AI corpos will be unable to profit from their gigantic debt driven investments.
I believe that this will eventually pop the US AI bubble and will take down a large amount of other US Tech stocks.
And yah the US cannot stop that, they already have invested too much to have an exit without pulling everything down. And ohh yah almost every US tech company is now in some kind or another valued as a AI company because they do something with AI so if the bubble pops it will be even harder.
China really has found the biggest vector to attack the US economy and it does cost them very little to do so.
And as long as Chinese labs publish their models, the rest of the world only wins in comparison to a world in which US has the monopoly on everything SOTA LLM.

Kessler Syndome Collision?
Apparently a Chinese rocket has 'broken apart' at an altitude coincident with some Starlink satellites.
What is not stated is the cause of the 'break up'. Which raises the question if the rocket collided with a SpaceX Starlink satellite?
Are we seeing a Kessler Syndrome event?
A Chinese rocket breaks apart dangerously close to the Starlink constellation
The rocket's breakup likely generated 100 to 150 new pieces of space junk.

Ein Foto von Elon Musk, der hinter einem offiziellen US-Präsidenten-Rednerpult steht und einen Hitlergruss ausführt.
Zentrales Element (Person): Elon Musk steht in der Mitte des Bildes. Er trägt einen dunklen Anzug mit weißem Hemd und einer dunklen Krawatte. Sein Kopf ist leicht zur Seite geneigt, und sein Gesichtsausdruck wirkt konzentriert oder angespannt mit zusammengepressten Lippen. Sein rechter Arm ist weit nach oben und zur Seite ausgestreckt, die Handfläche zeigt nach unten.
Vordergrund: Vor ihm befindet sich ein dunkelblaues Rednerpult mit einem Mikrofon. An der Vorderseite des Pults ist das offizielle, kreisrunde Siegel des Präsidenten der Vereinigten Staaten („Seal of the President of the United States“) mit dem Weißkopfseeadler deutlich zu sehen.
Hintergrund: Der Hintergrund besteht aus einer großen, stufenartigen Kulisse in kräftigem Blau. Auf den blauen Flächen sind Reihen von weißen, fünfzackigen Sternen horizontal angeordnet, was an das Design der US-Flagge erinnert. Einige weiße, abgerundete Lehnen (vermutlich von Sitzen auf einer Tribüne) sind ebenfalls zu erkennen.
Perspektive und Licht: Das Bild ist leicht von unten nach oben (Froschperspektive) fotografiert, was der Szene eine monumentale Wirkung verleiht. Die Ausleuchtung ist hell und gleichmäßig wie bei einer Großveranstaltung oder einer politischen Bühne.
ACTION: If you own a Morningstar/CRSP (Vanguard), Russell, or Nasdaq (QQQ) Tracking Index Fund contact your financial firm today.
"Why the rush to buy SpaceX? Yesterday Senator Elizabeth Warren called my index fund "rigged" and demanded the SEC delay the IPO in large part due to these sketchy 'fast track' rule changes (https://www.banking.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/2026.06.09%20FINAL%20Letter%20to%20SEC%20re%20SpaceX%20IPO%20v3.pdf). Why the rush to buy this grossly overvalued scam? Please pause any purchase of SpaceX until these serious allegations are resolved."
So… the #SpaceX #IPO is tomorrow, and y’all, the wealth transfer is gonna be a bumpy ride.
Due to recent emergency rule overhauls enacted in May 2026, passive #MutualFunds and #ETFs tracking specific indices will be legally forced to buy tens of billions of dollars of SpaceX stock in a highly compressed timeframe. To fund these mandatory purchases, fund managers must sell down their existing holdings in other companies, creating artificial downward pressure on those stocks.
#SandP #Dow: Zero immediate risk. Funds tracking these indices do not have to sell a single share to buy SpaceX.
#FTSE Russell: *5 Trading Days* (Fast-track entry for top 500 cap firms) *High* immediate risk. Massive forced selling across non-SpaceX components will occur next week.
#Nasdaq: *15 Trading Days* (Accelerated entry for top 40 market caps)*High delayed risk*. Concentrated tech and growth components will face selling pressure.
S&P 500 vehicles (such as #SPY or #VOO) are entirely insulated from #SPCX.

I wanted to do a follow up on this, because it’s important to remember that #nasdaq is still allowing rapid entry to stocks who have never made a profit and have really terrible capex.
Right now the only stock exchanges without heavy Nasdaq weights are international indices such as the #FTSE 100, #DAX, #Nikkei 225, and #HangSeng, which exclude Nasdaq components entirely as they track markets in the UK, Germany, Japan, and Hong Kong, respectively.
Approximately 60% to 65% of the companies in the S&P 500 are Nasdaq,. The market capitalization weight of Nasdaq components is even higher (frequently exceeding 70%). Consequently, movements in Nasdaq-listed stocks have a disproportionate impact on the overall performance of the S&P 500.
The billionaires are trying to siphon money from the bottom to the top, and this is still an existential threat.

"It’s also instructive to examine the extreme steepness of the growth trajectory required to lift SpaceX’s revenues today of $18.7B to $1.1T. Garnering that almost 600x increase means hiking sales 50% a year, on average, for a decade."

Understanding the SpaceX IPO MegaCap Squeeze - Automatic Cornering
You can think about it as an automatic 'corner', with retail index funds supplying the capital.
SpaceX will not be very liquid due to a small float, BUT due to index fund rule changes, indexes will be forced to buy, effectively 'cornering' the market and keeping the price artificially high.
This corner continues as insiders dump their shares and indexes are required to buy more of this illiquid stock.

RE: https://digitalcourage.social/@BlumeEvolution/116697018387802187
Wie kaputt unser Finanzsystem ist, war heute wieder an den Aktienbörsen zu sehen: US-Kurse gingen runter, weil „zu viele“ neue Arbeitsplätze geschaffen wurden - und damit wahrscheinlich keine Zentralbank-Zinsen gesenkt werden! 😱
Hinzu kommt aber auch eine wachsende Angst vor dem Platzen der KI-Blase, 👇 weil Elon #Musk mit dem Verlustbringer #SpaceX weiteres Geld von Anlegenden einsammeln will.
Einige wissen ja, dass ich vor dem Studium eine Bankausbildung abgeschlossen hatte, dann wegen Zweifeln am System ausgestiegen bin.
Und ich möchte hier auch keinerlei Panik verbreiten, nur leise eine Einschätzung (vom letzten Jahr beim BBF in Friedrichshafen) aktualisieren:
1. Die großen KI-Konzerne machen durch die Verschwendung von Energie, Wasser & Geld noch immer nur & eskalierende Verluste.
2. Elon Musk drückt sein defizitäres SpaceX in die Börsen, um Billionär zu werden.
3. Die #USA unter Trump steigern ihre wirre Zollpolitik und das Irankrieg-Desaster durch die Androhung, etwa Mercedes wegen chinesischer Aktionäre vom US-Automarkt auszuschließen.
4. In der E-Economy profitiert derzeit nur noch der oberste Arm, während die Nachfrage durch Mitte, Unten & #Demografie schwächelt.
5. Der #Fossilismus zerstört sich selbst.
Meine Empfehlung?
a) Klugen Tech-Beobachtern wie @pallenberg folgen.
b) Mal (wieder) den "Big Short"-Film anschauen.
c) #Solarpunk leben & anschnallen.
Ok, y’all…some good news! The S&P index told #SpaceX Karen and the #AI bros to suck socks until they show a profit. There will be no rules relaxed, no guardrails bent. They can meet the standards of the rest of the index, or they can fuck off back to their lairs.
Why does this matter? Everybody’s #retirement plan is tied to the S&P. Swift entry into the #SP500 would have triggered $14 billion of passive fund buying for SpaceX. #OpenAI could have gained more than $8 billion, and #Anthropic could have netted $4.6 billion from similar passive buying sprees triggered by their S&P 500 entries.
This is because $7.5 trillion in passively managed funds follow the S&P 500 by purchasing shares of companies according to their proportional representation in the S&P 500 index.
This is under the radar, but very good news. Now if we can get the other indices to do the same…
https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/06/sp-500-blocks-fast-spacex-entry-wont-waive-rule-for-unprofitable-ai-firms/
So when your investing in index funds (except S&P 500), you can't avoid SpaceX stock and the AI financial bubble it seems. It looks like they want to make the SpaceX stock too big and important to fail. We will see if it is enough when the inevitable financial bubble of AI will pop.

Honestly, given [waves hands at everything], I really thought the S&P 500 would go along with this bullshit too, and while this is extremely bad - and still an attempt at a one _trillion_ dollar grift - the damage is much more limited as long as the S&P hold out.
The could, of course, change their minds again. But one hopes not.
And I remind everyone that the fact damage will be contained doesn't change that a full-on attempt to loot retirement accounts to the tune of _hundreds of billions of dollars_ took place here.

"We soon learn that psychedelic language is part-and-parcel of the pitch. “The light of consciousness"... Once you arrive at the financials you start to realize what the language is overcompensating for: awful numbers."
"There’s optimism, and then there’s delusion. As Patrick Boyle told us on the pod last week, SpaceX is more a science experiment than a business."

Is this even legal? Can Wall Street just "quietly rewrite the rules" to ship our retirement money off to Elon Musk?

Are These Fast Track Index Fund Rule Changes Even Legal?
Earlier this year all the indexes except the S&P 500 changed their rules specifically to 'fast track' MegaCap IPOs into the indexes. Yesterday S&P announced they would not do change the "financial viability" rules.
This raises the question of whether the Fast Track Indexes (Nasdaq, CRSP, Russell) actually have the legal right to wave 'financial viability' rules. What are their legal fiduciary responsibilities?

The reality of AI being the world's biggest flaming money pit is settling in. Bloomberg TV is a hype-generating PR vehicle for the VC and C-suite class. That this guy was allowed on the show tells me that that class is getting nervous.
These monster IPOs, including SpaceX, are intended to make VCs and equity employees whole. Once the lockup period ends, the shares will get dumped because those people will be desperate to cash out while they can. These companies will never be profitable and have good odds of total failure. Retail investors (you and me) will get soaked to pay off the VC/C-suite class.
As I have mentioned before, there are a number of mutual and exchange-traded funds (ETFs e.g. SPY, QQQ) that mirror the two major US stock indices — NASDAQ, S&P 500 — and are required to hold the same ratios of stocks as the indices. These funds must liquidate other holdings to acquire SpaceX shares, so those stocks will likely fall. As of today, only the NASDAQ index will allow early inclusion. This will happen in early July.
Millions of people who've been saving diligently and putting their money into these funds, because they're very inexpensive compared to actively-managed funds and perform as well or better, will face a huge loss when these companies fail or their investors cash out.
So if you have NASDAQ-based index funds in your savings, you might want to do some more research and not listen to some asshole yapping away online. This is not investment advice!
And mirabile dictu, for once in his life Jim Cramer might be right.

So, if you have been waiting for the SIMPLE CLEAR explanation of this SpaceX IPO Ponzi scheme that is going to rob your retirement savings, here is the pitch.
Share it widely!
Action: SpaceX IPO Mega-Cap Scheme - Contact your elected officials
Draft text:
"Hello, I am writing to alert you to an impending catastrophe related to the SpaceX IPO, and particularly to index fund rule changes that 'fast track' SpaceX into everyone's retirement accounts. This scheme will force index funds, where most people keep retirement savings, to buy SpaceX stock at artificially high prices. What is at risk here is no less than confidence in US financial markets."

"In a presumed effort to court SpaceX to list its shares... Nasdaq slashed its inclusion window to the Nasdaq-100... from around three months to just 15 trading days. Low-float rules were also shelved... SpaceX will be eligible to join the Nasdaq-100 on July 7."

Folks, if your investments include index funds please read this thread carefully, and take action to contact your financial firm or brokerage.
Demand that they push back on this fleecing of your retirement.
Demand that they tell the indexes to roll back these rule changes.
Firms like Vanguard and Fidelity have influence, and that is about the only leverage we have to stop this madness. Let them hear it from you.
ACTION: Call your financial manager about SpaceX IPO ASAP
Background: SpaceX has filed to go public at a grossly overvalued $1.8 Trillion. The fundamentals in no way justify inclusion in index funds, BUT NASDAQ rules were CHANGED so that it will be included. As a result 401Ks and IRAs will AUTOMATICALLY buy the stock, giving this worthless company your money. It is the greatest grift of all time.

The continued proliferation of Low-Earth Orbit constellations can increase the risk of collisions with space debris or other spacecraft if operators fail to adhere to responsible space safety, debris mitigation, or coordination practices. Our growth strategy depends, in part, on continuing to launch additional satellites into Low-Earth Orbit. As the number of satellites and other objects in Low-Earth Orbit continues to grow, the probability of accidental collisions, fragmentation events, or other in-orbit incidents increases, which could result in the loss or degradation of our satellites, increased costs for collision avoidance maneuvers, or the need to replace or reposition assets on an accelerated schedule...
In addition, some domestic and international authorities have applied heightened regulatory scrutiny as interest in utilizing Low-Earth Orbit for satellite operations has increased. Debris mitigation regulations may emerge if congestion increases. Failure to meet debris requirements could result in monetary penalties or loss of licensing authority, which would adversely affect our satellite constellation deployment and expansion plans, and future regulatory actions could impose more restrictive operational, deployment, or debris mitigation requirements that could limit our ability to launch or operate satellites in Low-Earth Orbit. In addition, there is a burgeoning effort to further regulate Low-Earth Orbit, MEO, and GSO and establish liability regimes...
And the kicker...
"A worst-case scenario is flagged: a strike that could “trigger a cascading collision event that renders our licensed orbits, and potentially other orbits, unusable for an extended period."

Additional regulation in this area could adversely impact our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects. Furthermore, any damage to our satellites or impairment of their functionality resulting from collisions with space debris or other spacecraft could materially and adversely affect our ability to deliver reliable services to our customers, harm our reputation, and expose us to potential contractual liabilities or insurance claims. The growing challenges associated with space debris management may require us to invest in additional technologies or processes to safeguard our assets and maintain compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and future prospects.

Think that Trump's slush fund is audacious because he's stealing BILLIONS? Wait till you learn how Musk is stealing TRILLIONS.
"They’ve figured out how to steal your retirement."
AodeRelay boostedY’all, we need to talk about upcoming #IPOs, and the insane rule changes that #nasdaq has just announced.
Nasdaq rewrote its #index inclusion rules to accommodate #SpaceX’s mega-IPO, implementing a "Fast Entry" provision that allows the company to join the Nasdaq-100 index just 15 trading days after its initial public offering, down from the standard three-month seasoning period.
They also eliminated the minimum float requirement of 20% available public shares and instead stocks with less than 20% of shares publicly traded, Nasdaq applies a 3x multiplier to the free-float for index weighting purposes, artificially inflating low-float giants like SpaceX in passive funds.
Ok, but in English? #SpaceX, #OpenAI and #Anthropic have just figured out a scam to force every passive #IRA, #401k, and index fund to buy their stock before pricing evaluation.
They’ve figured out how to steal your #retirement.

In simple terms. SpaceX is a meme stock whose fundamentals in no way justify inclusion in index funds. NASDAQ rules have been changed so that it will be included. As a result 401Ks and IRAs will automatically buy the stock, effectively giving this worthless company your money. It is the greatest grift of all time.
What's more, SpaceX has set up two classes of stock. The class that Musk owns has all the power. The class that investors will own has no power. NASDAQ also changed the rules to allow this kind of shareholder ripoff.
