Read, Watch or Listen

SpaceX has entered the public bond market for the first time with an inaugural offering of senior unsecured notes targeting at least $20 billion, according to regulatory filings released this week in the United States. The move follows the company’s record-setting IPO earlier this month, which raised $75 billion and valued SpaceX at about $1.77 trillion. Despite holding $100.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents as of June 19, 2026, SpaceX is seeking long-term, low-cost financing to support an extensive artificial intelligence and data center expansion. Proceeds will also repay a temporary bridge loan and cover associated fees and general corporate needs.
