But huge pile of shares come to market soon -- a faster unlock than your typical IPO. Our IPO report gets into this in depth, but another 1.7B comes in about two months. From the S-1:
Gonna read a lot about VC "returns" from the SpaceX IPO. Reminder that no VC is selling shares into the IPO, and can't sell for a while. So these are still paper gains, not actual cash for distribution-starved LPs in their funds.

Interesting conversation on @CNN. We talk about the importance of this big IPO, artificial intelligence and trying to understand the impact of the $9.9 billion US government dollars that went into #SpaceX in the last three years.
Elon Musk is the world's first trillionaire. But how did he get here? @CoryTV tells @Phil_Mattingly, "he sells a dream and he's sold it better than anyone in the history of mankind."

Oracle Park was the perfect set: a wild Giants rally and an Oracle quarter full of promise, pressure and AI spending questions. ⚾️ instagram.com/p/DZbK1wBAVKy/ $ORCL 🎙️ @DrillDownPod #DrillDownEarnings #Oracle@SFGiants #OraclePark

Oracle’s quarter was strong: OCI growth, cloud apps, monster RPO. Bases are loaded: can they drive in the runs? A look from the ballpark ⚾️ tiktok.com/@drilldownpod/vid… $ORCL 🎙️ @DrillDownPod #DrillDownEarnings #Oracle@SFGiants #OraclePark

Epistrophy Capital Research Chief Market Strategist @CoryTV tells @DianeKingHall that leaders in the neocloud space and data centers are talking about "supply and scarcity of the ability to provide what their customers want."

I can safely say #SpaceX is the first company to ever add $26 billion in ARR between the date of its IPO filing with the SEC and the first trade. SpaceX added $15 billion in ARR from Anthropic and now $11 billion from Google in 33 days. #IPO 🚀 $SPCX

This is a huge damper on one driver of $SPCX shares. Some $20T is tied to the S&P 500 — about $13T in indexed/passive assets and $7T benchmarked active money, per S&P Dow Jones Indices. #IPO 🚀
S&P will not change the rules to allow SpaceX into its benchmark index early axios.com/2026/06/04/musk-sp…

My kids don't listen to me, but Charles Payne does! Yes, my stocks are up! Nice of @FoxBusiness to remember what I talked about last year. Photonics and optical networking is a crucial part of the AI data center buildout. Still! foxbusiness.com/video/639756… $AAOI $COHR $FN $LITE (!) $LUMN

Yep, I'll be digging through this one too! Ping me with thoughts and tips! @AnthropicAI #IPO 🕵🏼‍♂️
Anthropic has confidentially submitted a draft S-1 registration statement to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Pending completion of SEC review, this gives us the option to pursue an initial public offering. Read more: anthropic.com/news/confident…

#SpaceX amended S-1. New data on MAUs, which is confusingly a mosh of Twitter and xAI. Clearly most of the "users" are not on #Grok. Combined MAUs: 550m (up 6% qoq) % of users using Grok: 21% % of users paying for Grok? Less than 21%, perhaps a lot less. $SPCX #IPO 🕵🏼‍♂️

Pouring through the #SpaceX amended S-1. I've read hundreds of these, but wonder still if this is more a response to more regulator questions? Lawyers? Nervous bankers? Watch this space for more (see what I did there? 🚀) $SPCX #IPO 🕵🏼‍♂️
