The drop would leave early buyers underwater and could test retail demand before SpaceX’s first earnings report and Starship flight.
- SpaceX shares dipped below their initial public offering price of $135 for the first time since the company's historic Wall Street debut last month.

- Analysts point to a mix of valuation anxiety and high volatility fueled by a very small public float—only about 4% of SpaceX shares are freely tradable—which dramatically magnifies price swings.
- The downward pressure comes at a critical time for the company, as SpaceX is scheduled to launch its crucial Starship Flight 13 on Thursday, a suborbital mission designed to test satellite payload deployment sequences.
