With the semiconductor giant Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA) turning into a $5.1 trillion behemoth by 2026, with well over $100 billion in revenue in 2025, it might sound strange that, upon its initial public offering (IPO), it raised just slightly more than $40 million at a valuation in the low hundreds of millions.
Still, it is precisely due to the remarkable expansion of the company that its IPO would have proven one of the best possible investments an individual could have made in the twilight years of the previous century.
Indeed, for $1,000, a trader could have acquired a staggering 40,000 split-adjusted Nvidia shares at an adjusted price of just $0.025. Furthermore, even coming relatively late and missing NVDA stock’s initial rally would have meant buying 25,000 shares on the January 22, 1999, closing bell.
A quarter of a century later, on June 22, 2026, Nvidia’s equity is changing hands at $209.38 following a 0.62% from the most recent – June 18 – close at $210.69.

Thus, $1,000 invested at the IPO – for $12 per share without and $0.025 with adjustments – would have led to $8.37 million in profits. Additionally, even purchasing after the day-one rally was over would have still turned the $1,000 stake into a $5.2 million position.
Is Nvidia stock a good buy in 2026?
Elsewhere, while looking ahead too far is difficult, prominent Wall Street analysts have been confident in estimating that investing in the blue-chip chipmaker at the 2026 $5.1 trillion valuation would be a winning bet.
Indeed, Nvidia stock is overall considered a ‘Strong Buy,’ and boasts an average $310.62 price target for a 47.43% rally from the latest close, per the data Finbold retrieved from TradingView on June 22, 2026.

Should the consensus prediction be fulfilled, an investor who bought $1,000 worth of NVDA shares at the IPO adjusted price of $0.025 will have made $12.4 million by late June 2027. An investor who purchased the equity for the same amount at its first-ever closing price will have made $7.76 million.

At $2.95 trillion, SpaceX has passed Microsoft and now ranks as the 4th biggest public company on the planet.
As of June 2026, Nvidia is still far ahead.
• Nvidia: ~$5T
• SpaceX: ~$2-3T
SpaceX would need to more than double while Nvidia stands still, or SpaceX grows much faster than Nvidia for years.
Why SpaceX Could Win
Starlink
Starlink is the main reason.
It is already a profitable business.
2025:
• Revenue: ~$11.4B
• Profit: ~$4.4B
• Users: ~10-12M
If Starlink reaches 50-100M users, it could become one of the world’s largest telecom businesses.
Starship
This is the real bet.
Starship could reduce launch costs by another order of magnitude.
If successful, SpaceX could dominate:
• Satellite launches
• Lunar missions
• Mars cargo
• Military contracts
• Space manufacturing
Most of SpaceX’s upside comes from Starship.
Network Effects
SpaceX controls:
• Rockets
• Satellites
• Internet service
Very few companies own the entire stack.
This creates a powerful moat.
Why SpaceX May Not Win
1. Starship Is Unproven
The biggest opportunity is also the biggest risk.
Repeated failures or delays could slow growth for years.
2. Valuation Is Already Huge
Much of the future is already priced in.
Perfect execution is expected.
That leaves little room for mistakes.
3. Space Industry Size
Morgan Stanley and McKinsey estimate the entire space economy could reach roughly $1-1.8T by 2035.
SpaceX alone is already valued above that range.
This means investors are pricing in businesses that do not fully exist yet.
Why Nvidia Is So Strong
Nvidia has something SpaceX does not.
Massive profits today.
AI training still runs mostly on Nvidia chips and software.
CUDA created a moat that competitors have struggled to break.
Every major AI company depends on Nvidia.
Revenue and free cash flow are enormous.
What Could Hurt Nvidia
• Custom chips from Google, Amazon and Microsoft.
• Lower AI spending.
• Competition from AMD and others.
• AI becoming cheaper and requiring fewer GPUs.
But none of these threats have seriously damaged Nvidia yet.
Deep Research View
The comparison is misleading.
Nvidia is selling picks during a gold rush.
SpaceX is building infrastructure for a future economy.
Nvidia’s advantage exists now.
SpaceX’s advantage depends on technologies that are not fully proven.
Base Case
Nvidia stays larger through most of the 2030s.
Bull Case For SpaceX
Starship works.
Starlink reaches tens of millions of users.
New industries emerge around cheap access to space.
SpaceX becomes a $10T+ company.
Probability
Can SpaceX surpass Nvidia?
Yes.
Is it the most likely outcome?
No.
The market is already valuing SpaceX as if many things go right.
Nvidia does not need a revolution to justify its size.
SpaceX still does.
That is the difference.
