Shares of SpaceX fell as much as 7% Thursday to $178, leaving the stock trading roughly in line with its volume-weighted average price of just under $180.
That was the entire point of the IPO wasn’t it? Funnel money to Elon and his friends and leave the rest of the (less connected) idiot investors holding the bag? Anyone who didn’t own before it could sell wasn’t one of the in-crowd that was supposed to be handed money. If you did buy, you weren’t buying based on any business fundamentals and should have known to sell as soon as any gain could be realized which would have been hours or even minutes after buying.
Someone more knowledgeable than me please correct me if I’m wrong but I don’t think any of the original private investors have been capable of selling anything and I don’t think they will be able to for another 30 or 60 days.
And IMO, I think Elon is thoroughly convinced that he will have another Tesla stock situation on his hand, where it generally keeps going up unreasonably for many many years.
