SpaceX joins the Nasdaq 100 Index.

0:02

Morgan Stanley has slapped SpaceX with a

0:03

$300 price target. JPMorgan has a $225

0:07

price target on SpaceX.

0:08

>> I think that's the problem with these

0:09

early uh entries to the indices is that

0:11

you're putting these massive valuations

0:13

in there. So much has been priced in

0:15

this stock. It already had a $3 trillion

0:17

valuation. It has a $2 trillion

0:19

valuation today. It's a headwind for the

0:21

indices going forward.

0:22

>> When you join an index like the Nasdaq

0:24

100 and you have ETFs that are following

0:26

it, there is automatic buying that comes

0:28

in. However, that is already priced What

0:30

I'm more concerned about is the future

0:32

because we're going to have a lot of

0:33

insider shares that are going to become

0:35

unlocked by August 11th, about a quarter

0:38

of these shares are going to be unlocked

0:39

by October 25th, about 60%, November

0:42

9th, 88%. I'm not extremely optimistic

0:45

about the future for SpaceX stock, but

0:47

long-term, I'm a huge bull on SpaceX and

0:49

the space industry in general.

0:50

>> There is a growth story in the markets.

0:53

There's really only one sector that's

0:55

maintained a really healthy underlying

0:57

growth momentum this year. And that's

0:59

the technology sector. And that reflects

1:01

the AI build-out and stocks such as

1:03

SpaceX.

1:04

>> 50% of that valuation is on enterprise

1:06

AI, satellites into the AI data centers.

1:09

Starlink is about 42% part of that

1:13

valuation. And then you have X and Grok

1:15

being 4%. Enterprise AI, it's really the

1:18

future vision of Elon Musk.

1:20

>> Still, it's hard to tease out what is

1:22

the Elon Musk premium in any of these

1:24

things.

1:25

>> This is one of those stocks where you

1:26

bet on him and you bet on his vision.

1:29

And also, are you betting on Tesla as

1:30

well being integrated
