According to reports, SpaceX has officially filed its S-1 form for an initial public offering, seeking a historic valuation of $1.75 trillion. Goldman Sachs is reportedly leading the underwriting process, while Morgan Stanley is set to manage the allocation for retail investors. The filing indicates a revenue target of $18.7 billion for 2025, with a projected return to profitability driven by a strategic deal with Anthropic.

This valuation places SpaceX significantly ahead of traditional aerospace and defense peers such as Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Per market data, the move capitalizes on the current AI investment wave, as the company integrates Anthropic’s technology to optimize space operations. Financial analysts suggest that the scale of this IPO could redefine market benchmarks for the space exploration and global logistics sectors.

Looking ahead, traders are awaiting the final price range and the official listing date on the NYSE. According to the economic calendar, upcoming speeches by Fed officials including Bowman and Hammack on May 14, 2026, could influence broader market sentiment and liquidity for mega-cap IPOs. Investors should monitor retail allocation details closely as the company moves toward what could be the largest public debut in history.
