TREE NEWS reports: Tesla shares fell 8.9% in the three months after SpaceX (SPCX.O) began trading on June 11, while the S&P 500 rose 2.7%. SpaceX stock is up 9.8% from its $135 IPO price, siphoning investor attention from the EV maker that had been the only public-market way to bet on Elon Musk. Tesla’s weak results and product launches also weighed.
Tesla Falls 8.9% in First Three Months Since SpaceX Began Trading
The read here is about attention, not fundamentals: SpaceX's listing gives Musk-watchers a second public vehicle, and Tesla's relative underperformance suggests some of that investor focus has migrated. Tesla's own weak results and product launches complicate the picture, so the divergence cannot be attributed to SpaceX alone. Whether the two names keep trading as substitutes for Musk exposure, or decouple once SpaceX's listing novelty fades, is the open question.
