Missing figures stay unavailable. Forward P/E requires a dated source. Annual revenue, revenue growth, net income and margin come from each company's own 10-K, in US dollars, and each row shows that fiscal year. Revenue growth compares the fiscal year with the prior year stated in the same 10-K. Net income is the full year amount attributable to the company, or available to common stockholders where the filing states only that, or consolidated net income. Each row names its basis. Trailing P/E reads "Not meaningful" when the dated trailing diluted EPS is a loss or zero. An operating margin appears only when the filing states both the operating income and the revenue for the same year.
Sources: SEC filings, Gloria daily closes and CoinGecko. Oldest record refresh: Oct 28, 2026, 5:46 PM EDT. Refresh is not a price or filing date. Each row shows its price date and its annual fiscal period. Peers use industry code and company size, or editorial selection. Market cap multiplies that row price by the company share total the latest SEC filing states for every share class together. Trailing P/E divides it by trailing diluted earnings from SEC filings. Rolled earnings per share are approximate because share counts can change between periods. Both appear only when the SEC data carries its date, so they are estimates at one price date, not synchronized filing valuations. Not investment advice.

SpaceX shares are climbing roughly 9% as the company approaches what might be the most consequential week of its young life as a public company. The rally comes ahead of its first-ever quarterly earnings report, scheduled for August 4, 2026, with a cocktail of catalysts that reads like a volatility trader’s fever dream.
Short interest sitting at approximately 31% of the float. A lock-up expiration that could flood the market with over 900 million new shares. An Nvidia partnership. And Elon Musk, being Elon Musk. Pick your catalyst.
The short squeeze setup everyone’s watching
Here’s the thing about SPCX right now: roughly 196 million shares are currently sold short, representing about 31% of the trading float. That’s an extraordinary level of bearish conviction for a company with a market cap hovering around $2.11 trillion.
The stock has been trading well below its post-IPO peak near $225, which helps explain why bears piled in. SpaceX debuted on the Nasdaq on June 12, 2026, with shares surging 19% on its first day of trading. The subsequent pullback gave shorts a reason to bet the initial euphoria was overdone.
The lock-up time bomb
The earnings report on August 4 triggers a major lock-up expiration around August 6. That event could release up to 911.5 million shares into the market, representing 20% of total locked-up stock.

Analysts project revenues of approximately $6.93 billion for the quarter, though the company is expected to post a net loss.
The Nvidia angle and what it signals
SpaceX’s partnership with Nvidia stretches back nearly a decade. Nvidia delivered its first DGX-1 system to SpaceX in 2016, and the collaboration has expanded steadily since then, spanning supercomputing technologies, data center capabilities, and joint developments in AI and aerospace.
Why crypto investors should care
Tokenized versions of SPCX shares have launched on platforms including Solana, creating synthetic exposure to SpaceX’s public equity through blockchain rails.
