Market Chatter: Alphabet's SpaceX Stake Jumps to $94 Billion After Decade-Long Investment
Aug 14, 2026 4:08 AM

06:35 AM EDT, 08/14/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Alphabet (GOOGL) held 551.2 million shares of SpaceX (SPCX) valued at about $94.2 billion at the end of Q2, compared with the $900 million investment the Google ( GOOG ) parent disclosed it made in the rocket company in 2015, Reuters reported Friday.

Alphabet emerged as the largest disclosed institutional holder of SpaceX following the company's $86 billion initial public offering in June, according to the report.

At SpaceX's Wednesday closing price of $146.15, Alphabet's disclosed stake would be worth about $81.8 billion, still roughly 90 times the value of its original investment, Reuters added.

Alphabet and SpaceX didn't immediately respond to MT Newswires' requests for comment.
