Lente Económico
SpaceX IPO surges 40% with retail investor access, signaling strong market appetite for space/tech assets and boosting Musk's wealth to $1.3T, with bullish implications for aerospace and tech sectors.

SEC may examine retail investor access mechanisms and IPO pricing efficiency. Space industry regulation and orbital debris management could face increased policy attention.
