The bond market’s assessment also jibes with SpaceX’s stock. It’s a profitless, non-dividend-paying, one-person-controlled, empire-building project trading at more than 100 times sales, about 30 times the valuation of the S&P 500 Index. That’s the very definition of a junk stock.

All that money figuring out how to make Falcon 9 Reusable, led to them catching super heavy on their first try and being able to reuse it though, so the benefits keep moving forward.
That being said, they’re plowing billions into making the whole rocket reuseable this time, so they will have a big hole to dig out of again if they succeed.
Falcon 9 launches that contain starlink are also profitable because of starlink.
