SpaceX IPO Lock-Up Period: A Golden Buying Opportunity or a Liquidity Trap?
Yahoo Finance ·
Space Exploration Technologies ( SPCX 4.51% ) stock has taken investors on a rollercoaster ride since its June 12 IPO. Debuting at $150 a share -- $15 above its supposed IPO price -- shares of Elon Musk's space-and-artificial intelligence venture soared in their first three days of trading, delivering early investors average profits of more than 20% per day . Then it all came crashing down. The next seven days erased almost all the stock's post-IPO gains . After a brief bounce-back last week, SpaceX stock fell again on Monday, leaving it trading just a few bucks from where it started: $156 and change. Now investors must decide: Is SpaceX's full-circle trip right back to where it started a golden opportunity to buy the stock at its ground-floor price? Or is this a sort of liquidity trap , in which SpaceX insiders use voracious retail investor appetite as a source of "liquidity," providing them the cash with which to exit their own shares at a tidy profit?
