SpaceX Stock Faces Pressure After Major AI Acquisition Deal
The Sentiment for SpaceX stock has been affected following an announcement by SpaceX to acquire Anysphere (maker of Cursor) for $60 billion via an all-stock purchase. This move is considered a long-term AI strategy that will dilute about 3.4% of SpaceX’s IPO.
However, there are valuation models that are more conservative in relation to SpaceX’s shares. The Morningstar fair value of SpaceX was reduced, noting that dilution combined with high expectations might cause the stock to be overvalued. There are still analysts who are optimistic about the prospects of the company, including one who raised the target price to $250 due to the AI purchase.
The retail market contributed significantly to the initial rise of SpaceX Stock with approximately $370 million worth of funds being invested over the course of the first three days of trading. Nevertheless, the momentum soon started to wane due to heightened volatility and lower prices.
Inflows fell sharply by mid-week, indicating less interest from upper levels. IPO participants who received their stocks for SpaceX at $135 continue to maintain profits in SpaceX Stock, but later investors have incurred losses due to high entry prices.
What Comes Next for SpaceX Stock
In the coming days, SpaceX Stock may be under more supply pressure due to the impending supply factors. The expiry of a lockup period expected towards late July can greatly increase the float, along with a proposed bond issue related to AI funding.
The big test for SpaceX Stock in the coming days will be its first quarterly report since going public, set for release towards the end of July. This will help to establish if the recent drop is only a temporary one after the stock’s excellent performance at its public debut, or just the start of an adjustment period.
