# NVIDIA holds approximately 122.8 million shares of SpaceX, becoming the sixth largest shareholder of the company and promoting cooperation between the two parties

Semiconductor giant Nvidia disclosed in a filing submitted to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) this Friday that as of the end of the second quarter of 2026, it holds approximately 122.8 million shares of Class A stock in Elon Musk's aerospace company SpaceX, which was valued at around $21 billion at that time. However, with SpaceX's stock price now at $140 per share, the value of Nvidia's holdings in SpaceX has currently dropped to about $17.2 billion.

According to the data, Nvidia has now become the sixth-largest investor in SpaceX. In the company's equity structure, Elon Musk remains the largest shareholder, with holdings valued at up to $850 billion. Additionally, Google's parent company Alphabet ranks second with approximately $78 billion in holdings.

For Nvidia, the investment in SpaceX represents its second-largest equity investment, following its holdings in Intel. Nvidia's investment in Intel was as high as $30 billion at the end of the second quarter, and is currently valued at about $22 billion, achieving an astonishing return on investment compared to the initial $5 billion invested less than a year ago.

Nvidia's acquisition of SpaceX shares originated from a strategic investment made in January 2026. At that time, Nvidia invested a total of $10 billion in a $20 billion fundraising round for xAI, an AI startup under Elon Musk. Subsequently, SpaceX acquired xAI in February 2026 for an estimated valuation of $1.25 trillion, and Nvidia's shares in xAI were thus converted into equity in SpaceX.

In addition to the equity relationship, the technological alliance between the two giants has also become stronger. Elon Musk confirmed during SpaceX's second-quarter earnings call earlier this month that SpaceX's AI data center will "exclusively use" Nvidia's chips. He emphasized that Nvidia's GPUs possess the best architecture for training AI models, inference, and related products and services. Elon Musk also revealed that he expects SpaceX to receive a significant allocation of Nvidia's latest generation Vera Rubin GPUs in 2027. This commitment undoubtedly provides strong support for Nvidia's future chip shipments and demonstrates the ambition of both companies to deeply bind in the field of cutting-edge artificial intelligence.
