SpaceX has finally gone public and, as expected, there is a lot of excitement around the stock. We are already seeing strong buying interest, with prices pushing higher shortly after the listing. This is quite normal. Most IPOs attract aggressive demand in the early stages as traders rush to gain exposure.
However, traders should be careful not to let FOMO drive decisions. Early investors who received shares before the public listing will eventually look to take profits, especially if the stock becomes parabolic in the coming weeks. That often creates a sharp pullback after the initial excitement fades.
From a trading perspective, the best opportunities usually come after the first meaningful correction. IPOs often experience a strong rally, followed by a retracement as early holders lock in gains. That is when weak hands get shaken out and a more sustainable trend can begin. For now, the trend remains strong, but patience may be rewarded if a deeper pullback develops first.
