Summary

Jim Cramer delivers an exceptionally bullish take on the SpaceX IPO, calling it the best-dealt deal he can recall. He argues the offering was perfectly priced, that Elon Musk’s vision and competitive stance ensure US space dominance, and that SpaceX will be a massive long-term wealth builder. Co-host Kelly Evans adds that retail investors recognize short-term overvaluation but want long-term exposure, and she anticipates near-term volatility.

  • Cramer rates the SpaceX IPO an A+ and says it is the best-executed deal he can recall.
  • He believes buyers at the offer price have a great average and should consider buying more.
  • Cramer sees SpaceX reaching a $2.5 trillion valuation, driven by Elon Musk’s vision and unannounced innovation.
  • He argues Musk will prevent Chinese competition from dominating space, unlike what happened in robots and cars.
  • Cramer compares Musk’s unrevealed ideas to Jensen Huang’s, which later proved highly valuable.
  • Co-host Kelly Evans observes that retail investors think the stock is overvalued short-term but want a piece for the long run.
  • Evans warns of significant near-term volatility and that it may take time to become a massive wealth builder.
  • The overall segment is a strong endorsement of buying and holding SpaceX for the long term.
Ideas
Jim Cramer Host, Mad Money 0:18
SpaceX’s IPO was perfectly executed and priced, giving early buyers a very good average cost. Elon Musk’s unique vision, his intolerance of Chinese competition, and his unarticulated future innovations (similar to Jensen Huang’s) mean SpaceX will own space and generate enormous long-term wealth.
