SpaceX’s initial public offering has attracted demand for more than four times the available shares, according to people familiar with the matter, ahead of the Elon Musk-led rocket, satellite and artificial intelligence firm stopping taking orders.The banks are expected to stop taking orders from institutional investors after the market closes in New York at 4 p.m. on Wednesday, people familiar with the matter have said.
SpaceX’s IPO is set to price June 11 and trade the following day. The company is offering 555.6 million shares at a fixed price of $135 each, which would raise about $75 billion, and value it at about $1.8 trillion.
Orders are still being taken and details could change, the people said, asking not to be identified as the information isn’t public. A representative for SpaceX didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
