SpaceX has completed the largest initial public offering in history, raising $75 billion and entering public markets with a valuation of about $1.77 trillion.

The listing marks a milestone for the company founded by Elon Musk, transforming a business that began in a California warehouse into one of the world's most valuable publicly traded companies.

Trading began on the Nasdaq on Friday after the company priced shares at $135 each.

The offering involved more than 555 million shares and surpassed the previous IPO fundraising record set by Saudi Aramco in 2019.
