SpaceX stock: yes, SPCX trades on Nasdaq, and here is what the filings say

Figures checked against official announcements and filings on October 17, 2026.

Yes, SpaceX stock can be bought. Space Exploration Technologies Corp. went public on June 12, 2026, and its Class A common stock trades on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and Nasdaq Texas under the ticker SPCX. Shares are bought through an ordinary brokerage account, like any other listed stock.

The IPO was priced at $135 per share. A live price is not given here, because it changes every second; the official places to check are listed below.

SPCX is the ticker, and any broker that offers Nasdaq stocks can trade it

According to the IPO pricing announcement (carried by IREI Newsline on June 12, 2026), the company priced 555,555,555 shares of Class A common stock at $135 each. The shares were expected to begin trading on June 12, with the offering expected to close on June 15. Underwriters, the banks that sell the shares to investors, also received a 30-day option to buy up to 83,333,333 additional shares at the IPO price.

The same ticker is used for every search variant people type: “spacex ticker,” “spacex stock symbol” and “spacex ticker symbol” all point to SPCX.

Steps to buy a listed stock, in general terms:

1. Open an account with a brokerage that offers US-listed stocks in your country.
2. Search for SPCX and confirm the company name is Space Exploration Technologies Corp.
3. Check the quote and the order type your broker offers, and read its fee schedule.
4. Place the order during Nasdaq trading hours or as your broker allows.

Shares of the company before the IPO were private. Offers to sell “pre-IPO SpaceX shares” today refer to something different from the listed stock and carry their own risks.

How to check the SpaceX share price today without relying on a copied number

The company’s investor relations site has a Stock Information page (ir.spacex.com/stock-information) with a quote, a chart and a historical price lookup. Those fields load dynamically, so they only show in a browser. Nasdaq also publishes a quote page for SPCX.

Searches such as “spacex stock price today,” “spacex stock price live” and “spacex price per share” are answered by those pages, not by an article. A static article cannot show a live price, and none is stated here.

For context only: according to CNBC, shares closed at $161 on the first trading day, June 12, 2026, up 19% from the IPO price. That is a historical closing price, not a current one.

What the SEC filings confirm about the offering

SpaceX files with the US Securities and Exchange Commission under CIK 0001181412. The filings that exist on EDGAR include:

• An S-1 registration statement, publicly filed on May 20, 2026 according to press coverage, and amended; the amendment No. 2 states the company applied to list Class A common stock on Nasdaq and Nasdaq Texas under the symbol “SPCX.”
• A final prospectus on Form 424B4, dated June 12, 2026 (file number 333-296070).
• Eight current reports on Form 8-K between June 15 and August 14, 2026, including the Q2 2026 earnings release on August 4.

The Q2 2026 release, filed as an exhibit to the August 4 8-K, reports the following for the quarter ended June 30, 2026:

• Revenue of $7.8 billion, up 92% from $4.1 billion.
• Net loss of $541 million, compared with a net loss of $1.0 billion a year earlier.
• Adjusted EBITDA, a profit measure that leaves out interest, taxes and certain accounting charges, of $3.5 billion.
• About $100 billion of cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities, and $47.5 billion in backlog.
• Three segments: Space, Connectivity and AI.

The release contains no forward guidance. The balance sheet shows 7,607 million Class A shares and 5,569 million Class B shares outstanding at June 30, 2026.

Valuation history from the xAI merger to the IPO and Cursor

“SpaceX valuation,” “SpaceX net worth” and “SpaceX worth” have no single official answer. A valuation is either a price set in a transaction or a market capitalization that moves with the stock. The table lists the events with a number attached.

Date	Event	Valuation or amount	Source type
Feb 2, 2026	SpaceX combines with xAI	About $1.25 trillion for the combined company, as reported	Bloomberg
Jun 11-12, 2026	IPO priced	$135 per share; 555,555,555 shares offered	Company pricing announcement
Jun 12, 2026	IPO implied valuation	About $1.77 trillion, as reported	CNBC, Fortune
Jun 12, 2026	First-day close	$161 per share	CNBC
Jun 16, 2026	Merger agreement to buy Cursor	Implied equity value of $60.0 billion	Form 8-K
Aug 14, 2026	Cursor acquisition completed	389,289,254 Class A shares plus 1,752,426 for vested RSUs	Form 8-K

Figures checked on October 17, 2026. The Bloomberg figure comes from its February 2, 2026 report on the xAI deal. The pricing announcement figures come from the June 12, 2026 release as carried by IREI Newsline. The $1.77 trillion and $161 close are from CNBC and Fortune reporting and are not figures read on an SEC page. The Cursor rows come from SpaceX’s 8-K filings of June 16 and August 14, 2026.

“SpaceX IPO valuation” is therefore reported as roughly $1.75 to $1.77 trillion in press coverage. The $135 price and the share count are the company’s own figures; the trillion-dollar total is a calculation by the press.

The Cursor deal is closed, and it was paid in SpaceX stock

The search “spacex buys cursor” is answered by SEC filings. In an 8-K filed June 16, 2026, SpaceX disclosed an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Anysphere, Inc. (Cursor), with consideration in Class A stock based on an implied equity value of $60.0 billion for Cursor.

A second 8-K, filed August 14, 2026, reports the merger was completed that day. Cursor became a wholly owned subsidiary. Cursor’s common and preferred stock converted into 389,289,254 Class A shares, and vested restricted stock units into 1,752,426 more. Unvested units and options were assumed and converted into about 29.1 million SpaceX RSUs and about 44.4 million options.

This matters for anyone looking at share counts: the Cursor payment added new shares, so the total outstanding grew after the IPO.

What is official, and what is only reported or speculated

Official, from filings or company pages: the ticker SPCX, the exchanges, the $135 IPO price, the number of shares offered, the Q2 2026 results, and the Cursor merger terms.

Reported, not an SEC fact:

• The $1.77 trillion IPO valuation and the $161 first-day close (CNBC).
• The xAI combination value of $1.25 trillion (Bloomberg).
• A raise of about $75 billion: the announced price and share count multiply to roughly that figure, but outlets differ on the total with the greenshoe included.

Speculation: neither company has announced any plan for SpaceX to buy Tesla. News outlets have reported that an analyst, Dan Ives, linked the Tesla Roadster reveal to merger speculation. That is an analyst view, not an announcement by either company.

The same applies to “spacex stock price prediction,” “spacex stock forecast” and “will spacex stock go up.” Analyst price targets exist in press reports, but they are opinions of the firms that publish them, and none is repeated here.

Which listed companies disclose a stake or contract with SpaceX

A stake or a contract counts only when the company discloses it itself. Two sources are the reliable route:

• SpaceX’s own filings, which name major holders and related-party arrangements in the prospectus and in later reports.
• Each investor’s own SEC filings, such as 13F holdings reports and annual reports, which show a stake in SPCX if one exists.

For the operating side, what SpaceX launches and when is on the public schedule: see the live rocket launch schedule.

Why SpaceX stock moves, and where the next official date will appear

“Why is SpaceX stock down” and “will SpaceX stock go down” are questions about price moves that no filing explains. The company reports quarterly: the first public earnings release came on August 4, 2026, after market close, with an audio webcast at 4:30 p.m. ET (20:30 UTC) according to the company’s announcement dated July 20, 2026.

No Q3 2026 date was readable on the investor relations pages at the time of checking, because the events page loads dynamically. The company’s Events page (ir.spacex.com/events) and its investor email alerts are the official places where the date will be posted.
