Line chart of SpaceX's daily closing price from its June 12, 2026 IPO through October 20. The stock closed at a record $201.80 on June 16, fell to a low close of $108.27 on August 5, below its $135 IPO price, and closed at $147.79 on October 20, 9.5% above the IPO price.

SpaceX stock closed Tuesday at $147.79, 9.5% above its $135 IPO price, on its 90th trading day as a public company.

After the close, the company beat revenue estimates with $14.58 billion in third-quarter revenue, up 161% from a year ago.

The path to that close was bumpy.

Shares closed at a record $201.80 on June 16, up 49.5% from the IPO price.

By August 5 they had closed as low as $108.27, or 19.8% below it.

At about $2 trillion, SpaceX is now worth more than Facebook's parent company, Meta.

The next test comes Thursday.

That's when up to 1.3 billion more shares held by pre-IPO shareholders become eligible for sale, worth about $192 billion at Tuesday's close.

Investors also got a fresh look at where SpaceX's revenue now comes from.

Thursday will show how many early holders want to cash out at these prices.
