As reported by The Wall Street Journal, SpaceX, the brainchild of Elon Musk, is set on a mission to catapult its stock price to new heights as swiftly as possible following its initial public offering (IPO), which is slated for later this year. Insiders with in - depth knowledge of the situation disclosed that SpaceX has been actively engaging with leading index providers, such as Nasdaq, to delve into strategies for expediting the inclusion of SpaceX and other highly sought - after startups in pivotal indices.

In the conventional scenario, companies are required to bide their time for several months, and in some cases, even up to a year after going public before they can secure a spot in major indices like the S&P 500 or Nasdaq 100. However, SpaceX is determined to sidestep this long - standing norm in an effort to grant its shareholders access to liquidity at an earlier stage.

Previously, SpaceX was valued at a staggering $800 billion, and it has set its sights on achieving a valuation that surpasses the $1 trillion mark at the time of its IPO. Should it successfully go public, it has the potential to emerge as the largest IPO in the annals of U.S. history.
