Elon Musk may have found a new way to remind Wall Street who’s really in charge of the calendar.

According to a report, Musk is toying with the idea of timing a potential SpaceX IPO to coincide with a planetary alignment… and his birthday.

Apparently, Musk has mused about launching the offering in mid-June, when Jupiter and Venus will appear unusually close together in the night sky. That window also happens to land in the same month Musk turns 55.

For most companies, IPO timing revolves around interest rates, equity demand, and whether bankers think the story will hold together for two weeks of roadshows. For Musk, apparently, it also involves celestial choreography.

This isn’t entirely out of character. Musk has a long history of blending symbolism, inside jokes, and spectacle into serious business decisions. He famously tweeted about taking Tesla private at $420 a share. He renamed Twitter to X, resurrecting the name of his early payments startup. Even SpaceX’s launch cadence has often leaned into symbolic dates and numerology.

Still, tying what could be the largest IPO in history to planetary alignment is… ambitious. SpaceX is exploring a valuation around $1.5 trillion, with a capital raise of as much as $50 billion. That would surpass Saudi Aramco’s record-setting 2019 IPO and instantly place SpaceX among the most valuable companies on the planet… metaphorically and, apparently, astronomically.

At that price tag, this isn’t a rocket company investors are buying. It’s Starlink’s growing cash engine, government-backed contracts, unmatched launch economics, and a long-duration wager on the commercial space economy.

Analysts aren’t blind to the hype, though.

Neil Wilson of Saxo Capital Markets called the rumored valuation a “monster premium,” noting that it reflects not only technology and AI optimism, but what he described as “Elon Musk’s stardust.” In other words: the business matters, but so does the myth.

That may be the real takeaway here.

Musk is framing the potential IPO as more than a typical equity offering. The pitch pulls together SpaceX’s launch business, Starlink’s satellite network, AI ambitions, geopolitical importance, and long-term space goals into a single public-company story.

Whether markets go along with it will depend on whether investors still have the appetite to underwrite a trillion-dollar bet on Musk’s vision.

But if this IPO does happen in June, don’t be surprised if the roadshow slides include star charts. With Elon, that might actually be on-brand.
