SpaceX delivered on its promise to allocate IPO shares to retail investors. Craig shares some insights into allocation data collected from the Patreon community.

Craig also introduces a new segment called Access Alert, highlighting pre-IPO investing opportunities for non-accredited investors.

This week we learned that Fundrise has laid the groundwork for the Fundrise Innovation Fund II, a step ahead of Robinhood's confidential filing announcement for the Robinhood Venture Fund II (RVII).

In IPO Radar news, Databricks finds another reason not to IPO, Perplexity targets 2028, and the Bending Spoons IPO is around the bend.

Craig shares the frustration of retail investors who were largely left out of the biggest IPO this year. The Cerebras IPO doubled at the open, but only ETRADE account holders received small allocations, while Fidelity, and SoFi investors were ignored.

Why? A familiar retail foe.

Craig also explains why he thinks the Space IPO will be different.

In IPO Radar news, the Quantinuum IPO and Lime IPO are coming soon. Plus, Blue Origin in considering its first venture funding round as it looks to capitalize on the Space IPO and private space race.
