AVOID Felix & Friends (Goat Academy) Conviction 4/5 Analysis quality 80 now
The analyst advises avoiding SpaceX's IPO due to the typical dynamics of such offerings, where early investors cash out, creating 'exit liquidity' for retail investors. He highlights the risk of a significant price dip around the six-month lockup period expiration, citing historical examples like Uber and WeWork. While acknowledging SpaceX's strong fundamentals and long-term potential, he believes the initial IPO valuation will be too high for substantial short-term retail gains.
“The IPO is not designed to make you money. It is designed to make the early investors rich.”

The YouTuber argues SpaceX is a generational opportunity due to its massive total addressable market in space, connectivity (Starlink), and AI (space-based data centers). Structural factors like tax disincentives for early investors to sell, the ability to borrow against shares, and Nasdaq's rule changes forcing index funds to buy will create a 'structural squeeze' post-IPO, driving the stock significantly higher.
“If you get even a few hundred shares at IPO price, and the squeeze plays out the way I think it might, there is some upside here.”
