Before Musk could comment, SpaceX president donated 2 million shares, marking the largest corporate donation to the "Trump account."

According to Mars Finance, on July 6th, SpaceX President Gwyneth Shotwell announced on Monday that she and her husband will donate 2 million shares of SpaceX stock to the "Trump Account" program, one share each to over 2 million American children. Based on the current share price of approximately $160, this is worth about $320 million. This move comes just days after Trump publicly predicted that SpaceX would participate in the program. She stated that the donation will target children aged 11 to 17 from lower-income families, with a focus on recipients near her home in central Texas. Previously, Michael Dell and his wife pledged $6.25 billion, Micron Technology pledged $250 million, and BlackRock, Intel, JPMorgan Chase, and others pledged to match their donations at a rate of $1,000 each. Trump previously told CNBC that he expected Musk to also donate SpaceX stock, saying, "I think he will," but Musk has not yet publicly responded. Trump also said his relationship with Musk remained strong, describing the previous disagreements as "a minor friction."

SpaceX was officially included in the Nasdaq 100 index this week; historical warnings point to post-inclusion volatility. TeraWulf's Q1 HPC leasing revenue surpassed mining's high-margin annualized revenue of $630 million for the first time.

According to ChainCatcher and BBX data, the world's largest IPO completed its index inclusion milestone yesterday, marking a historic turning point in the valuation logic of mining companies' AI transformation. Key developments are as follows: SpaceX, Inc. (NASDAQ: $SPCX) was officially included in the Nasdaq 100 index this week, becoming the first company in history to have its largest single IPO ($75 billion) included in the Nasdaq 100. CoinDesk also issued a historic warning: "The previous two largest additions to the index—Palantir ($PLTR) in December 2024 and Strategy ($MSTR) in early 2025—both experienced a period of decline after inclusion, rather than initiating a new round of growth." Analysts pointed out that passive funds tracking the Nasdaq 100 completed a "forced buy" at the time of inclusion, and without new fundamental catalysts, the stock price often corrects after the technical buying subsides. SpaceX currently faces specific risks including: a net loss of approximately $4.27 billion in Q1 2026 (primarily due to xAI integration expenses), a $2 billion bond issuance plan, and a 3.4% equity dilution from the $60 billion acquisition of Cursor/Anysphere; Morningstar maintains its fair value estimate of $62 per share, implying a downside of approximately 70% from the current market price. For the market holding SpaceX Bitcoin (18,712 coins, approximately $1.2 billion, custodied in Coinbase Prime), Nasdaq 100 inclusion will trigger larger-scale SPCX holdings by passive funds, further narrowing the indirect exposure of traditional index investors to Bitcoin assets. According to the latest analysis, TeraWulf Inc. (NASDAQ: $WULF) reported $21 million in high-performance computing (HPC) leasing revenue in Q1 2026, accounting for approximately 62% of its total revenue of $34 million. This marks the first time TeraWulf has surpassed Bitcoin mining revenue—a historic reversal in revenue structure since its transformation into an AI/HPC infrastructure company. This represents a 117% increase compared to the $9.7 million in HPC revenue in Q4 2025. The company currently has AI/HPC leases totaling over 522 megawatts signed with Core42 and Fluidstack, with an expected annualized high-margin revenue of approximately $630 million. Its energy mix consists of nuclear power and hydropower, with an average electricity cost of approximately $0.035/kWh, among the lowest of its peers in the mining industry. The company is also developing a new campus in Kentucky, adding approximately 480 megawatts of grid connection capacity; analysts have significantly raised their target price range, with Keefe Bruyette & Woods from $23 to $37, and Clear...

SpaceX shares fell 6.83%, dropping below its opening price on its first day of trading.

PANews reported on July 8th that, according to Jiemian News, SpaceX closed at $149.47 on July 7th (Eastern Time), a sharp drop of 6.83% for the day. The stock price fell as low as $149.09 during the session, marking a new low since its Nasdaq listing on June 12th and falling below its opening price of $150 on its first day of trading, though still above its IPO price of $135. This occurred on the same day as the stock's official inclusion in the Nasdaq 100 index, which should have been a positive window for passive capital inflows. However, the stock price moved in the opposite direction, compounded by a broader market correction in tech stocks, pushing the stock into a deep correction phase.
