EchoStar owns 2.2% of SpaceX; at a $1.8T IPO valuation, that stake is worth $39.6B or ~$137/share, above SATS’s current price of $127. The discrepancy implies the market is pricing SATS below its implied SpaceX stake alone, creating an asymmetric upside if the IPO prices at or above $1.8T and retail demand drives further momentum. Bet on SATS rising as SpaceX IPO excitement builds, with a specific options strategy (170/180 call spreads) targeting a run to $155-$180 before June 18 expiration. SpaceX IPO could price lower than $1.8T; SATS may already have the stake priced in; short squeeze might not materialize; IPO delays or regulatory issues.
