SpaceX trades at 91 times sales, a premium that exceeds even the most expensive stocks in the S&P 500, such as Palantir, making it difficult to sustain long-term.

What is the basis for the $112 price target?

The target is derived from the median 17% decline observed in the 10 largest U.S. IPOs between 2016 and 2025 during their first year of trading.
