Market Chatter: Morgan Stanley Emerges as Lead Contender for SpaceX IPO

MT Newswires Live

Dec 20, 2025

Morgan Stanley (MS) is emerging as a leading contender for a key role in SpaceX's initial public offering, Reuters said Friday, citing three people familiar with the matter.

The IPO selection process is underway, with banks including Goldman Sachs (GS) and JPMorgan (JPM) also in contention, the report said.

There is no certainty that Morgan Stanley will secure the top lead underwriting role, the report said.

Morgan Stanley did not immediately respond a request for comment from MT Newswires.
