The week of June 15, 2026, was anchored by a highly anticipated Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, the first under newly appointed Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, which prompted a shift in monetary policy expectations.
The past week was highlighted by a landmark capital markets event, as SpaceX completed a record-setting initial public offering (IPO), alongside economic data that pointed to steady growth with persistent inflation pressures.
SpaceX is expected to become one of the most valuable companies in the world, with valuations reportedly approaching $1.5 to $2 trillion. At that size, it would rank among the largest companies in the U.S. equity market. Yet even at that scale, it may not immediately appear in widely used market indexes such as the S&P 500.
