      Capital gains best to pass on stocks that have had a massive run

    This is what early/angel investors always say. Then after they do- they say, new information told me to change my thesis….etc.

    Not lying. Look at the track record. Good luck everyone.

    This is actually hilarious if you consider the numbers logically.

    If you’re valuing yourself at $60 Billion but you’re the AI that is supposed to help them meet a TAM of $28.5 Trillion which is based 85% on AI, why are you valuing it at $60 Billion? Your revenue was $2 Billion last year, xAI brought in $500 Million. The valuation should be substantially higher simply based on SpaceX’s estimated figures.

    It just doesn’t make sense that Cursor is really changing the game for SpaceX, in reality they’re backfilling the gaping hole in SpaceX’s prospectus that is their bottom tier AI valuing itself higher than the leading competitors by an absurd margin.

    This is less SpaceX making a strategic acquisition so much as it is desperately trying to acquire the pieces needed to justify their absurd valuation. It’s ass backwards, you’re supposed to go public as a functioning business, not a promise to become one.

    He seems overestimate the progress of both Starship and Orbital Data Center, by claiming they are at the scaling stage (1 to 10 or 100). In reality, each is at the 0 to 1 stage, which means a prototype that materializes the concept is still being worked on. Hopefully, the first Starship that is able to send a data center of adequate size to orbit, as well as the orbital data center stably generating compute and correct results from low Earth orbit, will occur soon. Finger crossed!

    Launching data center satellites will pay for the Starship the way Starlink paid for Falcon 9. It keeps launch cadence up which lowers cost per launch and creates a revenue stream as it grows. It’s a proven model.

    Sequoia needs to sell their SpaceX stock within the 6-month window after the IPO. Take all this endless faith with a grain of self-serving salt.

    Got spcx at $150, sold some and sell the rest before the lockout. Would love to buy more when it drops down to $75 per shares. I am impatient, I just can’t wait 10 or 20 years to cash in. If you compare earnings and the price of the stocks against a company like Nvidia, spcx needs to grow 40% per year over the next 10 years.

    The problem isn’t that space x might not be a profitable company in the future, or even that it might not be revolutionary. The issue is that you are currently paying for something close to that scenario (and justified by non profitable current products and services and in most cases, future prospects relying on future inventions).
    If your company has been around 20 years, still isn’t profitable, and future earnings aren’t even based on extending growth in the products which currently have done so), you should have a price for investment which reflects such baggage and risk.

    This isn’t nvidia in 2021 where there product was identifiably profitable with a business model supporting potential break out and a low price reflecting the uncertainty of an AI breakout…

    Space x valuations currently are priced for a scenario where they have competitive data chips and centres en masse in space, profitably and huge government contracts for 20 other unknown future services involving the use of orbital infrastructure…

    If I’m going to buy stocks in an unprofitable visionary technology stock, with high risk, I’d better damn be loaded by the time their best case vision is realised!

    Elon’s timeline is always six months away from being six months away. From the Roadster and FSD to the $25k EV, the Boring Company’s traffic solutions, and Hyperloop, the promises keep rolling over. Investors just keep funding his playground. By the way, what happened to that ‘Tesla 20x’ growth?

    Watching this CEO dipshit talk like your least stable high school classmate while he stares avoidantly at the ceiling corner while spewing technobabble is why bitcoin bros are the least fuckable people on earth.
