Why SpaceX IPO Is The Most Dangerous IPO In History! [Don’t Ignore]

Main summary

Key takeaways

Finance

Market / Macro Context (CPI, PPI, Inflation Fears, Risk-Off Signals)

  • Inflation (CPI): CPI released at 4.2% YoY, up from 3.8% (expectation matched). The speaker frames this as inflation “on the rise,” comparing the risk of a return to late-1970s-style inflation.
  • Producer inflation: PPI is expected later that day (the Fed’s preferred measure is referenced).
  • Geopolitics / oil shipping risk: Iran announces “full closure”—any oil/commercial ships attempting transit will be shot at, escalating risk for energy/oil-linked markets.
  • Risk regime cues: The speaker repeatedly warns conditions resemble distribution / risk-off, and equities could fall further if the 10-year yield and USD (DXY) strengthen.

Technical / Momentum Framework Referenced (Across Assets)

  • TD Sequential: Mentions “TD sequential nine” continuing to play out alongside pullbacks.
  • Trend / structure language:
    • “Break of structure” (shift in trend)
    • Watch for lower highs after break/bounce zones
  • Support / resistance:
    • Uses Fibonacci retracements and moving averages (notably 0.382, 50%, and the 200 EMA)
  • Volume confirmation rule:
    • If price moves up while volume drops, it’s treated as double confirmation of a likely reversal/trap.
  • Cycle / fractal comparison:
    • Uses historical cycle psychology to time potential drawdowns/spikes.

SpaceX IPO Thesis (Dangerous IPO; Trading vs. Investing Plan)

Explicit Recommendations / Trade Ideas

  • The speaker frames the SpaceX IPO as potentially dangerous for most retail.
  • Ways to participate mentioned:
    • Short-term leveraged trading
      • Long into the pump, or
      • Short to fade
    • Long-term lump-sum buy (minority)
    • DCA (very small minority)
    • Wait (majority)
  • Speaker’s implied stance:
    • Long-term retail caution: expects most retail gets “hurt.”
    • Primary opportunity: wait for a local top, then consider a short during the liquidity-fade phase.

IPO-Cycle Methodology (Step-by-Step Logic)

The cycle described:

  1. Hype
  2. Initial pop
  3. Local top
  4. Slow bleed
  5. Short trade
  6. Consolidation / forgetting
  7. New base
  8. Later smart-money accumulation
  9. New highs

Key timeline concepts:

  • ~1 year later: drawdown of ~60–70% is “typically seen.”
  • Then: months to a year of sideways action
  • Then: 8–20 months for smart-money allocation
  • Then: ~36 months for possible breakouts back to IPO highs

Over-Subscription / Capital Flow Claim

  • Over-subscription: about $250B of potential capital chasing the IPO.
  • The speaker argues that demand of this magnitude can fuel a high followed by a high drawdown.

Valuation Comparison (Revenue vs. Valuation)

Comparison presented:

  • Amazon: valuation $2.8T, revenue $742B
  • SpaceX IPO (assumed): valuation about $2T, revenue $18.7B

Implied metric: revenue vs valuation comparison (e.g., 742B / 18.7B) to argue SpaceX is much more expensive on revenue.

Drawdown Expectations and Prior IPO Examples

  • Average post-IPO drawdown: ~53%
  • Examples (approx. drawdown from IPO price):
    • Airbnb: -14% (noted as mild/outlier)
    • Twitter: -29%
    • Snapchat: -52%
    • Meta: -54%
    • Coinbase: -55%
    • Uber: -64%
    • Robinhood: -80%

“Where to Trade” / Venues (Crypto-Style Platforms)

  • Bybit (preferred):
    • SpaceX is described as already listed in pre-markets
    • Mentions 24-hour trading volume just under $2M and “up 27%”
    • Approach described:
      • Monitor → long trade if conditions align
      • Flip short and hold a swing short for months (mentions ~12 months later possibly redeploying to spot)
  • Variational / “variational tradfi section” (wallet-based approach referenced):
    • Claims no fees, only spread
    • Mentions possible liquidity/pairing source (speculates about Hyperliquid, “don’t quote me on that”)
  • Scheduling note:
    • Speaker says they may miss the IPO launch due to travel, focusing on shorting after.

Poll Results (Audience Sentiment)

  • 12%: short-term leverage (SpaceX IPO referenced as 12th of June)
