As SpaceX nears its public debut, debate intensifies over whether the company can justify valuations exceeding $2 trillion. Prediction markets suggest a debut above that threshold, but skeptics question whether the valuation is overblown. Comparisons to Tesla's volatile stock history suggest SpaceX shares may not trade strictly on fundamentals. Meanwhile, early investors who accumulated shares over 15 years stand to reap enormous windfalls.
Several major stocks posted significant moves in midday trading. Intel received a bullish call from Bank of America pointing to a subtle dynamic that could drive shares higher. Oracle is experiencing its worst losing streak in 25 years amid intensifying debate over its AI strategy. EchoStar, Adobe, and Sandisk also featured among the biggest movers.
US inflation accelerated to its highest level in three years, sparking debate over the economic outlook.

President Trump surprised observers by declaring 'I love the inflation,' a sharp departure from typical political responses to rising consumer prices. The remarks drew widespread media coverage.
