SpaceX Insider Lockup Expires Freeing $51 Billion in Shares

Key Facts

A lockup period for SpaceX insider shares worth up to $51 billion expired today, October 9.

SPCX closed at $160.57 on October 8, 2026, just prior to the lockup expiration. The stock traded between a low of $160 and a high of $167.6 during that session, as the market prepares for potential downward pressure from increased share supply and insider selling.
