He also outlined SpaceX’s massive CapEx spend of close to $300 billion/year till 2034. Meanwhile, investor **Cathie Wood** of **ARK Invest** also purchased 44,196 shares in the **ARK Innovation ETF** (BATS:ARKK) in a transaction worth more than $6.5 million. SpaceX also entered the Nasdaq 100 index, marking the fastest entry into the index by any stock ever. The entry, which has been opposed by experts, sees billions of dollars in forced buying from index funds and ETFs that track the Nasdaq 100. According to Benzinga Edge Rankings, SpaceX fails to provide a favorable price trend in the Short, Medium and Long term. **Price Action:** SpaceX shares were up 1.14% to $151.16 during after-hours trading on Tuesday. **Read Also: Elon Musk's SpaceX Deorbits 260 Starlink Satellites in Six Months, With Hundreds More Set to Burn Up** _Check out more of Benzinga’s Future Of Mobility coverage by_ following this link. _Photo courtesy: Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [.NDX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/.NDX.US.md) - [SPCX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SPCX.US.md) - [QLD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QLD.US.md) - [TQQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/TQQQ.US.md) - [PSQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PSQ.US.md) - [QID.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QID.US.md) - [SQQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SQQQ.US.md) - [QYLD.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QYLD.US.md) - [JEPQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/JEPQ.US.md) - [QQQI.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QQQI.US.md) - [SPCH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SPCH.US.md) - [SPCF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SPCF.US.md) - [SPAL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SPAL.US.md) - [SNK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SNK.US.md) - [SSPC.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SSPC.US.md) - [SPCU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SPCU.US.md) - [LOFF.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/LOFF.US.md) - [MS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS.US.md) - [ARKK.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARKK.US.md) - [MS-O.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-O.US.md) - [MS-Q.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-Q.US.md) - [MS-E.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-E.US.md) - [MS-I.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-I.US.md) - [MS-L.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-L.US.md) - [MS-P.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-P.US.md) - [MS-A.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-A.US.md) - [MS-F.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-F.US.md) - [MS-K.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/MS-K.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [AT&T won't need to worry about SpaceX for 'years,' analyst says](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293652573.md) - ['Don't Expect More Miracles,' Says Investor About SpaceX Stock](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293529763.md) - ['Buy' SpaceX Stock as Its AI Opportunity Is 'Virtually for Free,' Says Top Analyst](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293480358.md) - [SpaceX lockup expiry: Morgan Stanley believes 'largely unchanged' fundamentals create attractive entry point at current levels](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293785215.md) - ['Prof G' Scott Galloway Says Morgan Stanley's $300 SPCX Target Is the Stuff of 'Romantic Comedies'](https://longbridge.com/en/news/293961855.md)
