How High Can SpaceX IPO?

PRESENTED BY PIQUE

Happy Thursday, Future Party. Today, space history was made… once again. NASA’s Artemis II mission launched from Kennedy Space Center in Cape Canaveral, Florida. The four astronauts — Jeremy Hansen, Victor Glover, Reid Wiseman, and Christina Hammock Koch — will travel beyond Earth’s orbit and circle the Moon over the next 10 days. It marks the first time humans have journeyed to the Moon since the Apollo program ended in 1972. Pretty neat!

If you missed it, you can watch the launch here.

SpaceX has confidentially filed to go public, likely setting up what could become the biggest IPO in history.

The Big Bet: 2026 is shaping up to be a blockbuster year for public offerings, with SpaceX, OpenAI, and Anthropic all slated to IPO. SpaceX has analysts, investors, and watchdogs salivating for a number of reasons, ranging from the company's secretive, sprawling structure to the stock’s potential accessibility for retail traders.

Between The Lines: Nearly every major bank around the world has its employees working overtime in preparation for the upcoming SpaceX IPO.

Closing Thoughts: While SpaceX’s rockets get most of the press, its Starlink satellite arm is the company’s real revenue driver, with the business expected to bring in $20 billion this year. SpaceX had hoped it wouldn’t need to go public until it was regularly sending rockets to Mars, but its ambition to build data centers in low-Earth orbit (a key reason for its merger with xAI) means the company needs access to significantly more capital — funding that can realistically only come from an IPO.

The Future: SpaceX announcing an IPO within 36 hours of one of its Starlink satellites mysteriously exploding may be ironically poor timing, but it underscores that Starlink’s reliability — access, regulation, and competition — may likely be the main factors investors will be looking at come June.

Mazda released a series of five short films showcasing the latest iteration of its popular CX-5 SUV.

The Big Picture: In the early aughts, car companies experimented with Hollywood-quality, star-driven short films that aimed to be the coolest advertising in the world. Spoiler alert: it worked. But as the rise of social media pushed brands toward internet-native content, high-gloss commercials took a back seat. Now, as social media’s popularity begins to decline, we may be entering a new era of ultra-premium advertising designed to cut through the noise.

Behind The Scenes: Mazda tapped filmmaker Paul Hunter to direct its 5 Sides of the CX-5 series.

Last Take: The company is reopening a playbook used by BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and Ford 10 to 20 years ago. BMW’s The Hire series, starring Clive Owen, featured a lineup of top-tier Hollywood action directors that racked up millions of views and ultimately helped fuel a 12% increase in car sales. Mazda would love to see similar results, especially as the automaker transitions into a more premium brand.

Coming Soon: While “authenticity” has driven much of marketing in recent years, the next era may be all about “entertainment.”
