SpaceX to File for Biggest IPO of All-Time ($1.75 Trillion Valuation)

Elon Musk's SpaceX is reportedly preparing to file its U.S. IPO prospectus as early as this week, targeting a public listing this June.According to new reports from the Information, advisors now predict the company could try to raise a record-breaking $75 billion, far above the $50 billion previously touted.This would more than double the previous $29 billion record set by Saudi Aramco in 2019.To put this figure into perspective, this single listing would surpass the total proceeds raised by every other U.S. IPO this year combinedAt a projected valuation of $1.75 trillion, SpaceX would instantly become the 7th largest public company in the world.While the final valuation and offering size won't be locked in until weeks before the June debut, the structure of the deal is already raising eyebrows.In a significant departure from Wall Street norms, SpaceX is expected to bypass the standard six-month lockup period.Additionally, while banks typically limit individual investors to 10% of an IPO, the retail and ultra-high-net-worth investor portion for SpaceX could remarkably exceed 20%. In this episode of the ‘What’s The Big Deal?’ podcast, Deborah Taylor and Graham Smith discuss the unprecedented valuation, why the usual rules don't apply for Elon, and what this means for investors and capital markets.Why Wall Street Prep?Wall Street Prep is the trusted training provider for the world’s top investment banks, private equity firms, Fortune 1000 companies and business schools. Our online training and instructor-led boot camps are direct adaptations of our corporate training, making Wall Street Prep the ideal choice for those looking to break into finance.DISCLAIMER: The information provided in this video is for educational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.Investing involves risk, and you may lose some or all of your capital. Past performance is not indicative of future results. Please conduct your own due diligence or consult with a certified professional before making any financial decisions.WTBD Newsletter: https://webmail.wallstreetprep.com/whats-the-big-dealFollow Us On Socials:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wall-street-prep/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wallstreetprep/Resources: https://linktr.ee/wallstreetprep
