BlackRock is seeking to buy about $5 billion worth of shares in SpaceX’s initial public offering, according to multiple reports citing people familiar with the matter. The bid is part of broader demand as investors compete for allocations ahead of SpaceX’s expected Nasdaq debut, which some outlets describe as potentially among the largest IPOs on record. Bloomberg and the Wall Street Journal, as cited by others, say BlackRock’s order targets roughly $5 billion. Other asset managers are reported to have placed similarly sized orders, while individual investors reportedly requested much larger amounts, indicating the offering is oversubscribed. One report says overall IPO demand reaches about $250 billion, or nearly four times the amount being offered. NDTV also reports key deal terms for the IPO, including a target fundraising size of $75 billion through the sale of 555.6 million Class A shares at a fixed price of $135 per share. Across sources, the central points are BlackRock’s large order size, intense competition for allocations, and the fixed IPO pricing and share count described for SpaceX’s listing.
