SPCX pulls back for the first time: Can SpaceX optimism sustain rally?
SPCX shares continue to attract investor attention following the company's IPO. Enthusiasm surrounding SpaceX has reached elevated levels, but alongside rising demand, the risks of market euphoria are also beginning to increase.
According to MarketWatch, retail investor demand has become one of the strongest seen in recent years, comparable to periods of peak interest in Nvidia.
Another catalyst has been reports of a higher valuation for SpaceX itself. Investors continue to bet on the growth of Starlink, commercial launch services, and the long-term potential of the space industry.
However, a significant portion of the current rally appears to be driven by expectations of further valuation expansion rather than by new financial results.
At this stage, the stock's price action is being driven primarily by speculation. Short-term traders are benefiting from the stock's substantial volatility. Over the past three trading days, SPCX has recorded an Average True Range (ATR) of 29.79 points, an exceptionally high figure for a stock trading near $190.
Post-IPO volatility remains elevated
As mentioned in our previous analysis, a correction in SPCX was not unexpected. Traders who purchased shares on June 12 have begun closing positions and locking in profits. A continuation of the short-term pullback remains possible today.
SPCX is gradually establishing short-term price levels that could serve as key reference points for traders in the coming sessions.
The nearest support level is located around $181.50. If selling pressure persists, the stock could test this area. The next important support level is $176.50, which corresponds to the high of SPCX's first trading day.
Resistance remains in the $196.50–$200 range. An attempt to test this zone is possible during the first half of today's trading session.
During an IPO and in the weeks immediately following a public listing, stocks often show heightened sensitivity to round and half-round price levels such as $190.00, $190.50, $191.00, and $191.50. These levels tend to attract a large concentration of hidden orders and liquidity.
As a result, breakouts above or below such levels are often accompanied by sharp accelerations in price movement. Once existing orders are absorbed, the stock can quickly move toward the next liquidity zone, creating strong momentum in the direction of the breakout.
This dynamic helps explain the elevated volatility commonly seen after major IPOs.
Signs of market euphoria begin to emerge
Despite SpaceX's compelling long-term story, investors should recognize that enthusiasm surrounding the company is beginning to show signs of market euphoria.
Periods like these are often accompanied by heightened volatility and sharp price swings in both directions.
Another important risk is the market's heavy reliance on future expectations related to Starlink, commercial launch growth, and the monetization of new business segments. Any indication of slower growth or weaker-than-expected performance could trigger a significant correction.
