AI Efforts Could Help This SpaceX ETF Blast Off

Elon Musk’s Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX), shares of which are up 3.3% over the past month, is known to many investors as a rockets and satellites company. But there’s much more to the story. And that includes a vibrant AI thesis.SpaceX’s various AI efforts could present aggressive traders with opportunities to capitalize with the Direxion Daily SpaceX Bull 2X ETF (LOFF). The fund debuted in June soon after the SpaceX initial public offering (IPO). It attempts to deliver 200% of the daily returns of this new stock. Among the AI-related items for prospective LOFF traders to stay abreast of is the newly minted Grok Bot. “While still early, we find Grok Bot to be intriguing and have noticed a lot of positive user feedback since its release last month with weekly users reportedly at 418k as of Sep 14,” noted Deutsche Bank analyst Edison Yu. “We think Grok Bot represents a very easy way to deploy agents across a range of functions spanning e-mail triage to coding tasks. That being said, we don’t see Grok Bot aspiring to a be a “killer” consumer app but rather one element of an evolving Grok+Cursor ecosystem that is trying to be more friendly to enterprise customers. Looking forward, we believe this is a key driver for the stock to potentially re-rate higher: can these tools ultimately resonate with enterprises and drive meaningful growth?”AI Could Spell Liftoff for LOFFPerhaps even more compelling to LOFF traders and SpaceX investors than Grok Bot is the company’s effort to boost its AI compute capacity, which is powered by Nvidia chips. Compute demand is through the roof. That indicates SpaceX may be at the right place time in addressing that need. “Supporting this expansion, SpaceX is putting up the largest grid-connected battery pack bank in the US worth 3.3 GWh,” added Yu. Of note to traders considering the leveraged LOFF, one of the first single-stock ETFs addressing SpaceX, are data points indicating the company is already making AI compute strides. “Specifically on the neocloud deals, we estimate the five signed customers are worth $54.5bn on an annualized revenue run-rate basis. Management has not disclosed the exact compute allocation to these contracts but we estimate 1.2-1.4 GW, implying $40-45bn per GW pricing, toward the higher end of $30-50bn range,” concluded the Deutsche Bank analyst.For more news, information, and analysis, visit the Leveraged & Inverse Content Hub.
