SpaceX options didn’t just launch, they made history.
More than 11 million contracts traded in the first three days, making SpaceX one of the most actively traded options markets in the world immediately after launch.
As Garrett DeSimone, Head of Quantitative Research at OptionMetrics, noted, the level of speculative interest was unlike anything seen before, driven largely by retail participation and elevated volatility expectations.
The debut highlights the powerful intersection of investor sentiment, market structure, and options trading activity around one of the most anticipated public listings in recent memory.
