SpaceX Free Fall: Musk's Rocket Hit $100
SpaceX shares have collapsed toward the $100-per-share threshold, according to Yahoo Finance, as private market valuations reflect a broader pullback from high-multiple tech and space ventures following months of geopolitical turbulence and tightening risk appetite among institutional investors.
The decline marks a sharp reversal for a company that was trading at multiples that made even the most optimistic Dubai-era deal tables look cautious. SpaceX has not commented publicly on the valuation drop, but the pressure is real: crypto winter is biting platforms like Uphold, which confirmed Monday it is cutting 17% of its global workforce, citing a strategic pivot toward enterprise clients as retail trading volumes dry up. The two stories are not unrelated. Risk is being repriced across the board.
The SpaceX slide matters beyond Elon Musk's personal ledger. The company's valuation has served as a benchmark for private market confidence in deep-tech ventures globally — the number institutional funds point to when justifying exposure to illiquid, long-horizon bets. When that number moves sharply, portfolio managers in London, Singapore, and Dubai start asking uncomfortable questions about everything else sitting in the same drawer.
Whether $100 represents a floor or a corridor depends almost entirely on what happens in the Middle East before the next funding round closes.
