SpaceX IPO Public S-1 Now ~2 Weeks Away — June Nasdaq Listing Calendar Locked; $75B Raise at $1.75T+ Valuation on Track
On May 5, 2026, The Motley Fool published two major analyses confirming SpaceX's public S-1 registration statement is approximately two weeks from publication — expected around May 15-22, 2026 — marking the decisive countdown to the largest IPO in US history. The first article identified a specific investor calendar for the SpaceX IPO process: public S-1 filing around May 15-22; management roadshow the week of June 8; IPO pricing between June 18-30 on Nasdaq. A second article analyzed what SpaceX's stock will likely do when trading begins, citing historical precedents for mega-cap IPOs and identifying S&P 500 inclusion as a near-certainty that would force over $200 billion in passive index-fund buying within weeks of listing. SpaceX's confidential S-1, internally codenamed 'Project Apex,' was filed with the SEC on April 1, 2026. The public prospectus will disclose for the first time SpaceX's audited financial statements — including Starlink revenue, Starship development spending ($15B+ total, per Bloomberg), and the financial terms of the SpaceX-xAI merger. Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs are leading a 21-bank underwriting syndicate targeting a $75 billion capital raise at a ~$1.75 trillion valuation — which would make SpaceX the most valuable IPO in history by roughly 3x. Kalshi prediction markets stood at 82% probability of an IPO announcement by July 1 as of early May 2026.
