SpaceX Is Down 45% From Its All-Time High, and the Pain Is Just Beginning for Shareholders

SpaceX stock has plunged 45% from its June 16 peak of $225.64 to below $124 per share following its record-breaking $85.7 billion IPO in June 2026. The article warns of further downside pressure due to an accelerated insider unlock schedule beginning in early August, an unsustainably high price-to-sales ratio of 42x (well above historical bubble territory of 30x), lack of recurring profits, and planned dilutive equity offerings to fund AI infrastructure expansion. Additionally, the company's $25 billion bond offering has seen declining prices since issuance, signaling bondholder concerns.
