Jim Cramer warns SpaceX could soar to unsustainable levels after its debut

TL;DR

  • Jim Cramer fears SpaceX's stock could soar too high, too quickly after its IPO.
  • The company set a fixed sale price of $135 per share, valuing it at $1.77 trillion.
  • Extraordinary demand, described as four times oversubscribed, could push shares sharply higher.
  • Cramer is concerned about inexperienced investors using market orders, potentially driving the stock to unsustainable levels.
  • He pointed to recent IPOs like Figma and Cerebras, which initially rose then declined.
  • Cramer believes the goal should be a controlled debut, not a spectacular first-day spike, to allow the stock to build value over time.
