Jeenah Moon | Reuters Space stocks soared Wednesday following a report that Elon Musk's SpaceX could file to go public as soon as this week. Satellite designer AST SpaceMobile and Rocket Lab both jumped about 8%. Rocket maker Firefly Aerospace , which went public in August , climbed 14%. York Space , an aerospace company that held its IPO in January, rose 6% on the news. According to the Information , the highly anticipated stock market debut for SpaceX could raise over $75 billion. CNBC previously reported that it could be the biggest IPO ever , seeking a $1.75 trillion valuation. SpaceX acquired Musk's xAI last month in a deal valuing the combined company at $1.25 trillion deal . The space sector , which includes companies focused on national defense, has benefited from excitement surrounding SpaceX, President Donald Trump's plans for a " Golden Dome " defense system and soaring demand for artificial intelligence infrastructure. The rapid buildout of data centers to support AI has been blamed for rising electricity costs . Sending data centers into space has been proposed as a solution, but faces numerous barriers, including high costs and limited rocket launch availability. SpaceX currently operates the Starlink constellation, with over 9,500 satellites in orbit. In January, Musk proposed a larger project that would launch 1 million satellites , an effort that's been staunchly opposed by scientists for environmental threats.

A group of American dancers face off against Hungarian gangsters, and a hammy Uma Thurman, in a cheap and cheerful Friday night adventure Last year’s Ballerina, or as Lionsgate’s marketing team would prefer us to say From the World of John Wick : Ballerina, failed as both proof that the Keanu Reeves -led franchise could support expansion and that “ballet action thriller” could be a worthy new genre. The title, in whichever format audiences came across it, was both confusing and misleading, the film ultimately featuring very little in the way of actual dance moves. For those who left the cinema enraged at Ana de Armas’s lack of arabesque kills, they can get their fill at home this week with Amazon’s fresh-from-SXSW actioner Pretty Lethal, a film all about ballet dancers actually using their skills to slaughter a string of eastern European bad guys. It’s a neat idea, positioning women who might be untrained fighters but who have grit and stamina learned from a gruelling form of dance many underestimate, and in an overcrowded field, it gives it a slight yet elegantly extended, leg up.

Igor Barilo/iStock via Getty Images Is the bull market in gold over? Is the bull market in gold ( GLD , XAUUSD:CUR ) finally over? Nah… don't buy into that absurdity if anyone were to tell you that. Thankfully, based on the most recent research and commentaries that I have parsed and looked into carefully, no one is telling me that the bull market is over. Yet, that doesn't mean that market forecasters or prognosticators have not tried looking into their crystal ball to try and make their guesstimates into why gold suffered a surprising selloff in the midst of the Iranian War. It was only in January that I highlighted that the bullish thesis in gold was only warming up, but the bear market decline since then has threatened to upend that narrative. So we are given another opportunity to take a closer look at why this has happened, and what it portends from this moment on, and also whether it still represents a great buying opportunity for those of us who have yet to get on board the gold glitter. Gold futures price chart (weekly, medium term) (TradingView) As for me, I'm seeing a fantastic opportunity, but first, I know we have to go to some of the key reasons that you may have read about on why this bullish gold train formed a top back in January, before dropping into a rare bear market, as we can see from above. I'm observing that a bullish reversal signal is already underway this week, aligning very nicely with the possible negotiations taking place right now between the U.S. and Iran about putting an end to the current hostilities. Of course, it's still too early for us to confirm whether it's a temporary ceasefire, or something "more permanent," so to speak. Nevertheless, I always believe that we must pay homage to price action signals, because they represent what investors are telling us right now as they rejected further selling that initially caused gold to collapse into a bear market this month. From the price action perspective, this is just about the "near...

As SpaceX potentially readies to begin the progress of going public in the coming days, investors already have funds to play it. The Information reported Tuesday that the Elon Musk-run startup is looking to file its initial public offering prospectus with regulators as early as this week. Advisers involved said the company could raise more than $75 billion, making it potentially one of the biggest IPOs ever, the report said. SpaceX has reportedly been looking at a Nasdaq listing while vying for early entry into the Nasdaq 100 index. Here are some of the funds with exposure to SpaceX: SpaceX is the Baron Partners Fund (BPTRX) 's largest holding, accounting for nearly a third of the total portfolio. Alongside Tesla , which is also run by Musk, the pair accounts for more than half of the holdings in BPTRX. The fund's retail shares are down about 5% in 2026, according to Morningstar data. It climbed more than 24% in 2025, putting it in the seventh-percentile of comparable funds. SpaceX also accounts for nearly a quarter or the Baron Focused Growth Fund (BFGIX) . Tesla follows, representing just over 6% of holdings. The fund's institutional shares are off more than 4% in 2026, according to Morningstar. But the fund is coming off three years of double-digit gains, Morningstar said. SpaceX makes up 18% of Cathie Wood's ARK Venture Fund (ARKVX) . Anthropic, Databricks and Groq are also among the private companies the fund is exposed to. ARKVX is up more than 6% in 2026, building on last year's gain of more than 55%. The Private-Public Crossover ETF (XOVR) has close to 45% exposure to SpaceX. By comparison, Nvidia is the next largest holding at around 4%. The ETF has tumbled roughly 15% so far this year. The fund added nearly 12% in 2025, but was among the bottom quartile of comparable offerings, per Morningstar.
