SpaceX Opens 11% Above IPO Price in Nasdaq Debut

Bloomberg Technology’s Caroline Hyde, Ed Ludlow and Yahaira Anand reported that SpaceX opened for trading on Nasdaq at $150 a share, 11% above its $135 IPO price, giving IPO buyers an immediate paper gain. Ludlow said the opening price put the company’s market value near $2 trillion, while the reporters cautioned that the first print was only an initial verdict and that the key question was whether the early gains would hold through the session.
