SpaceX stock is in focus as up to 911.5 million shares become eligible for trading today, representing more than 140% of the current public float and raising the risk of near-term volatility. The development follows a 12% decline in the stock after the company’s latest earnings report, despite beating revenue expectations and reporting an unexpected profit from its AI business. Additional share unlocks are scheduled for August 12 and later this month, with more than 4 billion shares expected to become tradable by the end of 2026, potentially weighing on the stock despite its long-term growth outlook.
