description: "$Rocket Lab(RKLB.US)$AST SpaceMobile(ASTS.US)$SpaceX(SPCX.US) An American retail investor said this was the worst summer since he became an adult. He used all the savings he had accumulated over 5 years plus 3x leverage, and all in on Musk's SpaceX space stocks. As soon as he FOMO bought at the high, he encountered a crash in the first month of listing, directly triggering a margin call and losing everything. He couldn't even come up with next month's mortgage payment. Walking by the side of Wall Street, watching the K-line on the electronic screen turning green all the way, many retail investors around him who were also heavily invested in space stocks stopped and squatted by the roadside, holding their heads and sighing silently, feeling like they had fallen into the darkest moment of their shattered space dream.After all, who would have thought that when the largest IPO in history was first listed, the whole market was hyping Musk's Mars colonization myth, shouting that SpaceX was the "starting point of human space civilization." But the peak of $225 hadn't even warmed up before it plunged 40% in a month, with a trillion-dollar market cap directly evaporating into thin air. It even fell below the issue price. The leveraged crowd simply couldn't withstand this sharp drop and were forced into closing positions, losing every last cent of their principal."

- **第一股神 · 2026-07-17T02:12:55.000Z**: No wonder someone reported Musk. Probably they lost money on stocks, so they reported Musk for bribing to get votes for the president.
- **你没有如期归来 · 2026-07-17T00:23:02.000Z**: This guy isn't investing but gambling, just in a different form.
- **Ryan_UYw3gc · 2026-07-16T16:59:03.000Z · 👍 1**: How could someone with such faith not buy on the day of the IPO? They'd have achieved financial independence long ago. Just some small talk, haha.
- **懦弱的豚鼠 · 2026-07-16T16:09:52.000Z**: Where did the 3x leverage come from?
  - **猎猫猗** (2026-07-16T16:11:20.000Z): And it's still a green candlestick... hahaha
- **贼头 · 2026-07-16T16:01:51.000Z · 👍 2**: Shouldn't a decline in the US be shown in red?
  - **Nikaidou-Hiro** (2026-07-16T16:02:32.000Z): Written by AI😂
