SpaceX's stock surged after its IPO, briefly surpassing Amazon to become the fifth-most valuable company globally, with a valuation peaking at $2.9 trillion. The rise was fueled by the announcement of SpaceX acquiring AI coding firm Cursor for $60 billion in stock and the start of options trading. Despite posting a $4.9 billion loss last year, SpaceX's new AI and compute leasing deals with Anthropic and Google have boosted investor confidence. The company raised nearly $86 billion from its IPO, but only 4% of shares were publicly available, causing high volatility in trading.
