Sign InAmid growing debates over high-growth tech valuations, veteran investor Jeremy Grantham has launched a scathing critique of Elon Musk's SpaceX. Grantham characterized the company's inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 index as the "craziest IPO in the history of man," expressing profound skepticism regarding the sustainability of its current valuation. These remarks highlight his broader concerns about a potential market bubble surrounding the aerospace giant's recent index entry.
Grantham's warnings arrive as aerospace and AI sectors attract massive capital inflows, with SpaceX's private valuation reaching approximately $210 billion following recent secondary offerings (per Bloomberg reports). Compared to industry peers, Lockheed Martin trades at significantly lower earnings multiples, which reinforces Grantham's argument regarding the unprecedented premium placed on private-sector growth companies, according to market data.
Regarding market performance, the SPCX instrument stood at $160.42 (at close July 06, 2026), having fluctuated between a day low of $155.04 and a high of $167.90. Traders are now monitoring whether this high-profile criticism will dampen sentiment, especially following recent macro data where US Non-Farm Payrolls added only 57k jobs, significantly missing the 110k forecast.
