The AI boom isn't the only race attracting massive investor money.
SpaceX has officially priced its IPO at $135 per share, making it the largest public offering ever and putting the company among the most valuable technology firms on the planet.
The move gives public market investors their first real chance to own a piece of the company that has reshaped the economics of space launches, built the world's largest satellite internet network through Starlink, and is leading the push toward commercial space infrastructure.
What's interesting is that this isn't just a bet on rockets anymore.
Investors are increasingly viewing SpaceX as a critical infrastructure company—one that sits at the intersection of aerospace, telecommunications, defense, AI-powered satellite operations, and global connectivity. In many ways, Starlink has become as important to the company's future as its launch business.
The record-setting IPO also sends a broader signal: capital markets are still willing to pour enormous amounts of money into companies building foundational technology platforms, whether that's AI, semiconductors, or space infrastructure.
The big question now is whether SpaceX can justify the sky-high expectations that come with becoming the largest IPO in history.
Because once you're worth hundreds of billions of dollars, investors aren't just betting on the future of space—they're betting that you own a meaningful part of it.
