While currently private and not traded, I figure they will do an IPO at some point and I often like to talk about SpaceX so decided to finally create a thread for it.

I wouldn't count on an IPO in the next 2 years minimum, 5 years if I had to guess. Tesla has kind of burned his fingers some so to speak I believe.

Edit to add - the rocket launching business is a very risky business. Risky business does not lend itself well to the emotions of the stock market. But at the end of the day I am betting on the fact that it will go public. If it does and follows in Tesla's footsteps I will be a very happy person

I agree on the 5 yr time frame.

Boeing said to win NASA space taxi [AUTOLINK]contract[/AUTOLINK] - CNET

If Boeing wins without even flying a craft, that will be a travesty.

A travesty indeed ... but would result in lawsuits. I have a hard time believing the Wall Street Journal though as well. If you look on the outside NASA would be dumb to not award multiple contracts. I think the main thing is what the % split or splits would be not necessarily who is winning it. But I have an obvious bias so what do I know
