After Biggest IPO Ever: Is Elon Musk SpaceX's Steward?

The richest man on the planet has launched the world's biggest IPO ever. After the pricing of the SpaceX IPO was finalized yesterday, shares of the rocket-and-AI giant were traded on the NASDAQ for the first time today. The company's total valuation stands at the expected $1.75 trillion, with the roughly 550 million newly issued shares representing a value of $75 billion at the offering price ($135 per share). Shares opened approximately 11% higher on the first day of trading, touching $150. These ingredients make for the biggest IPO of all time. And for the greatest wealth in the hands of a single person: Elon Musk is, on paper at least, the first trillionaire in world history.
