The SpaceX Effect.

The largest IPO in stock market history just happened 30 miles from downtown Austin.

$75 billion raised. $1.77 trillion valuation. Day one, the stock closed up 19%.

4,400 millionaires. 9 billionaires. 1 trillionaire. Not executives. Welders. Machinists. Cafeteria workers. Google's IPO created about a thousand millionaires. SpaceX did 4x that in one day.

1,600 employees on 1,000 acres in Bastrop County. An 11 million sq ft campus called the Gigasat. Bigger than Tesla's Gigafactory.

The same week, Apollo Global picked Austin as their second headquarters and said most of their future growth will happen here, not New York. $900 billion in assets.

This is what I'm calling the SpaceX Effect. And the map of Austin just changed.

Greg Abel is building something, and the Austin housing market is sitting right in the middle of it. Between Clayton Homes, a national brokerage, and now Taylor Morrison, this isn't a bet on one company. It's a bet on the direction of American housing. Pay attention to where smart money moves.

The city of Austin quietly made a decision in 2013 that nobody talked about. Everything happening on Riverside has been done with intent. This is the logical “Gateway” to Austin!

Austin is the #3 city in the US for semiconductor manufacturing.

That’s driven by an ecosystem of the who’s who in chip design and fab. Samsung. Apple. AMD. ARM. NXP. The gang’s all here.

And this is before Terafab gets built.

If we capture just 25% of Terafab’s projected production, Austin jumps to #1 in the country.

Chip manufacturing, plus space, plus defense tech. That stack puts Austin in the front runner seat for the next decade.
