SpaceX IPO sparks market rally and AI‑driven stock price forecasts

A surge in leveraged buying has lifted US equity markets, with the recent SpaceX initial public offering—valued at $1.75 billion—highlighting growing investor enthusiasm. The broader artificial‑intelligence boom is also fueling record highs across global indices.

ChatGPT’s AI model generated two possible price paths for SpaceX shares by the end of 2026. In a bullish scenario the stock could reach $250–$300, driven by expanding Starlink subscriptions, military contracts, and progress on the Starship program. The bearish outlook places the share price between $130 and $180, citing the company’s high valuation, potential slowdown in Starlink growth, possible Starship delays and overall market weakness.

Analysts warn that the current market exuberance rests on thin fundamentals and that a correction could follow if risk appetite wanes.
