Elon Musk Says 'Yes' To $1.75 Trillion SpaceX IPO Valuation As Company Eyes Mars, Orbital Expansion
SpaceX and Tesla Inc. CEO Elon Musk may have just confirmed reports of the commercial space flight giant targeting a $1.75 trillion IPO.
SpaceX IPO
In a post on the social media platform X on Monday, entrepreneur Peter Diamandis shared his take on the reported IPO. "$1.75T valuation, filing in March. Capital for Starship, Moon, Mars colonization and Earth's Dyson Swarm," he said in the post, further hailing the move as an expansion of human civilization.
Funding Humanity's Future… SpaceX IPO rumors: $1.75T valuation, filing in March. Capital for Starship, Moon, Mars colonization and Earth's Dyson Swarm. This isn't just a company going public—it's civilization expanding outward.

Responding to Diamandis, Musk seemingly confirmed the reported figure. "Yes," the billionaire CEO said in the post.

SpaceX-xAI Merger
The news comes as SpaceX had acquired Musk's artificial intelligence startup xAI, with the combined SpaceX-xAI entity reaching a valuation of $1.25 trillion. The company is also reportedly considering a dual-class share structure that could give company insiders, including Musk, outsized voting power over corporate decisions.
Musk has also shared that he was confident that SpaceX's Starship V3 would be able to achieve full reusability after earlier sharing that the Starship would be able to launch every hour in three years.
Orbital Datacenters
Meanwhile, SpaceX was invited to discuss orbital datacenters by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The datacenter ambitions reportedly involve operating a fleet of over 1 million satellites. SpaceX is also seeking several waivers from the FCC.
However, Musk's orbital datacenter goals have been criticized by short seller Jim Chanos, who called the orbital datacenter ambitions "AI Snake Oil," adding that power supply wasn't the issue.

VIPCross-Asset Positioning Amid AI Earnings Scrutiny and the US Election
1. Markets diverged during the week. Between the October 23 and October 30 closes, BTC fell 4.78%, the Nasdaq 100 declined 1.98%, and gold and silver dropped 2.72% and 8.59%, respectively. The DAX, KOSPI, Nikkei 225 and Hang Seng advanced. We focus on differences in growth prospects, valuation sensitivity and risk exposures rather than applying a single directional view across assets. 2. Market reactions to Alphabet's and Intel's earnings brought returns on AI investment into focus. Attention is shifting from the scale of capital expenditure to revenue realization, margins and free cash flow. Lower interest rates can ease discount-rate pressure, but a sustained valuation recovery still requires support from both operating performance and financing conditions. 3. The November 3 US midterm elections and November 6 employment report are key events in the coming week. We monitor how post-election fiscal and legislative agendas may affect interest rates, the dollar and industry operating conditions. Our execution priorities are to manage leverage and concentration, retain margin and exit-liquidity buffers, and avoid treating a single political outcome as an automatic trading signal. 4. Following Binance's disclosure of a security incident, industry attention to endpoint protection, access segregation and coordinated incident response has increased. Key assets to monitor: BTC, the Nasdaq 100, crude oil and gold, alongside upcoming earnings from AAPL, AMD, PLTR, ARM, ANET and QCOM.
