US Stock Market: Heavy demand anticipated as SpaceX options begin trading this week

Options trading on SpaceX is expected to begin as early as Tuesday, giving investors new ways to hedge, speculate, and gain leveraged exposure to the stock following its blockbuster IPO. The move comes after SpaceX shares surged over 25% on their Nasdaq debut, pushing the company’s valuation above $2 trillion. Analysts expect heavy options activity from both retail and institutional investors, with traders likely to bet on the stock’s volatility while existing shareholders use options to manage risk.
