Company status · reviewed Oct 2026SpaceX is publicly traded now
SpaceX completed its IPO — it is no longer a private, pre-IPO company, so this is not a private-secondary situation anymore.
What this means if you hold SpaceX equity
SpaceX went public on Nasdaq in June 2026 (Nasdaq: SPCX). Its shares now trade on the public market. If you hold shares or vested RSUs, you can generally sell them through an ordinary brokerage account once any post-IPO lock-up period has ended — not through a private secondary sale. Public-company RSUs are normally taxed as ordinary income when they settle, and any later gain is a capital gain. Your employer’s stock-plan portal is the place to start.
