On the same day, SPCX climbed to as high as $160.95 before hitting a closing peak of $201.80 on June 16th.<\/p>\n<p>By August 5th, shares of SPCX were in free fall, dropping to $108.29, marking a nosedive of more than 40% from its June peak and leaving Musk\u2019s overall wealth down more than 30% to track the stock\u2019s post-IPO decline.<\/p>\n<p>The sell-off came after SpaceX released its first quarterly report as a public company. According to the report, the firm\u2019s Q2 revenue climbed 92% to $7.8 billion, yet the company recorded a $541 million net loss alongside $18.4 billion in capital outlays.<\/p>\n<p>Of that spending, $15.8 billion targeted artificial-intelligence infrastructure, which weighed on investor sentiment toward near-term profitability.<\/p>\n<p>Market observers note that elevated investment demands in growth areas continue to pressure valuations even as top-line expansion remains robust. As of Wednesday\u2019s close, SPCX was trading at $108.27.<\/p>\n<p><em><span>Follow us on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/TheDailyHodl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">X<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/thedailyhodl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/thedailyhodl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Telegram<\/a><\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<br \/>\n<em><span>Don&#8217;t Miss a Beat \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/dailyhodl.com\/join-the-daily-hodl-email-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Subscribe<\/a> to get email alerts delivered directly to your inbox <\/span><\/em><br \/>\n<\/p>\n<div class=\"hideinamp\">\n<div class=\"dianomi_context\" data-dianomi-context-id=\"736\"><\/div>\n<p>&amp;nbsp<\/p>\n<h6>Disclaimer: Opinions expressed at The Daily Hodl are not investment advice.
