Before we start — Happy Father’s Day!

SpaceX went public exactly seven days ago.
Wall Street still cannot agree on what it’s worth and the spread just got wider.

Plus: the $60 billion deal Microsoft passed on.

Here is the story. ⇩

Why SpaceX Just Triggered the End of the Bull Market

SpaceX insiders are getting ready to dump as much as $1.6 trillion in paper wealth – the biggest cashout in market history. The same thing happened in 1999 right before the dot-com crash… and now, it’s happening again.

The Deal Behind The Debate

SpaceX’s acquisition of Cursor parent company Anysphere announced Tuesday, still shaping the conversation Friday.

It is best understood through one framework: vertical integration. 
Shay Boloor, chief market strategist at Futurum Equities, laid it out in three layers.

1 Top layer — Applications
Cursor. “One of the fastest-growing AI applications in the world.” Developers who use it “will never leave that platform,” per Boloor. The killer app SpaceXAI was missing.

2 Middle layer — Models
xAI / Grok. “Okay, it’s not great,” Boloor says plainly. Musk himself admitted in March that xAI had fallen behind and needed to be “rebuilt from the ground up.”

3 Bottom layer — Infrastructure
Energy and compute. “Pretty well fit,” per Boloor. Starlink, satellites, and the data center capacity SpaceX has not already rented to Anthropic or Google.

⚠️ The honest read: Cursor does not fix SpaceXAI’s biggest problem, which is that its underlying models still lag Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google.

But it buys SpaceX something models cannot — a product developers already love, using compute SpaceX already owns. That is leverage, even if it is not a complete solution.

“Sell This, Buy That.”

It’s a way to rid yourself of overpriced AI stocks before the tech trade breaks down this summer…

And instead move that money into smaller, lesser-known names that are showing real potential to dethrone the “Mag 7”. 

I even give away a Hotlist and Hitlist of buy and sell ideas that you can act on right now. 

Like my recommendation I call “an upgrade to Tesla stock.” It’s a little-known company that just inked a groundbreaking partnership with the king of AI, Nvidia. This deal virtually hands this under-the-radar firm the keys to the self-driving industries’ biggest customers, putting them miles ahead of Tesla in the autonomous vehicle race.

That’s why I want to put this stock on your radar before markets open.

The Details.

The most interesting detail may not be the acquisition itself.

It may be who didn’t make it.

Microsoft passed on Anysphere. SpaceX paid $60 billion for it.

One saw a $60 billion opportunity.

The other did not.

This highlights something investors often forget:
→ The future is rarely obvious in real time.

⚠️ The risk is also obvious.
Cursor is platform-neutral — it can run on OpenAI’s models or Anthropic’s models, which is exactly why developers love it.

But if Anthropic or OpenAI now view SpaceX as a direct competitor, they could pull support for Cursor entirely.

Or SpaceX could choose to favor its own xAI models over rivals as Grok improves — which would make Cursor a worse product for the exact reason developers chose it in the first place.

The acquisition could quietly undermine the thing it just paid $60 billion to acquire.

“Trump’s Gold Mine” to Deliver 10X Gains In a Few Months
 
According to Jim Rickards – the world’s #1 gold expert and a man with close ties to Donald Trump’s “inner circle”…

The president is about to unleash a major new gold initiative…
 
One that opens up the largest gold deposit in the entire world – right here on U.S. soil…
 
And that is valued at over $1 TRILLION.
 
Today, Jim has revealed one of his favorite ways to play this gold boom – 100% FREE.

The Numbers

→ Anthropic’s Claude Code: $9B to $47B in a year.
→ OpenAI’s Codex: 6x growth since February.

What This Means →

SpaceX is buying a seat at a table where Anthropic’s coding revenue grew more than 5x in a year.

→ If SpaceXAI can hold onto Cursor’s developer base while improving Grok underneath it, the upside is real.

→ If the platform-neutrality concerns play out, SpaceX may have paid $60 billion for a product that becomes less valuable the moment it tries to use it strategically.

Live demo of Elon Musk’s AI agent

Have you tried Elon Musk’s new AI agent?

It’s the most powerful AI ever created.

Musk himself thinks it could make investors 70 times their money.

In a few short years…

I expect an announcement from Musk by the end of this month…

That will make this AI agent available to every American.

But you can get in right now…

When you click this link, I’ll give you a live demo of this amazing AI agent – for free.

One week in…

The most remarkable number from the first week isn’t the stock price.

It’s the range.

Nine independent fair-value estimates from the Simply Wall St community currently span from: $8 to $191

Different investors are looking at the same facts and arriving at completely different conclusions.

And that spread is widening.

The underlying question remains the same:
Can SpaceX transform itself from a loss-making space and communications company into a dominant AI and infrastructure platform?

If the answer is yes, today’s valuation may look cheap.

If the answer is no, it may not.

The Risk

Every bull case eventually runs into the same concern.

Capital.

1 SpaceX just spent $60 billion on Cursor.

2 It is preparing a $20 billion bond raise.

And insider lockups will eventually begin to expire.

Heavy spending and increasing share supply arriving at the same time is the risk factor analysts continue to focus on.

The timing matters.
→ The market can tolerate ambitious spending.
→ The market can tolerate more shares.

Doing both simultaneously becomes harder.

That is the collision investors are watching for.

The Quiet Upgrade

Lost among the headlines was a smaller development.

Roelof Botha, one of Silicon Valley’s most respected investors and a key figure at Sequoia Capital, joined SpaceX’s board.

It won’t move the stock.
It won’t change the revenue forecast.

But it does strengthen governance and oversight at a time when the company is becoming one of the most important public companies in the world.

Sometimes the quiet developments matter more than the loud ones.
