SpaceX announced a $100 billion rocket launch facility in Louisiana, aiming to expand its aerospace presence. Meanwhile, Gwynne Shotwell gifted about 2 million SpaceX shares, worth $325 million at the time, to American children via the Invest America program. Since the gift on July 6, SpaceX stock has dropped 15.85%, causing a collective paper loss of around $45 million for the gifted shares. The company's Q2 report showed strong revenue growth but a $541 million net loss due to massive capital spending, especially on AI infrastructure. Investors are cautious as SpaceX balances rapid expansion with ongoing losses, with key upcoming milestones including Q3 capital expenditure and regulatory approval for the Cursor acquisition.
