Rocket Lab's CFO Adam Spice said a potential SpaceX IPO in mid-2026, valued around $1.5 trillion, could reshape the space stock market by distinguishing strong companies with real infrastructure and growth from weaker ones. He expects SpaceX's public debut to raise investor scrutiny, benefiting companies like Rocket Lab that have solid revenue and capabilities, while less credible space stocks may lose attention. This IPO could create a clearer market divide, rewarding proven operators and challenging speculative players.
