13. If Starlink income wasn't swamped by xAI losses it might be a decent investment.

Tue Jun 2, 2026, 10:43 PM

Tuesday

Starlink is the "cash cow." But with the acquisition of xAI the "company" as a whole is a dog.

The entire U.S. economy is currently an all-in bet on AI. I see no reason to pump the bubble up with an absurd xAI over-valuation buried inside SpaceX

SpaceX Segment Financials (2025)

Overall operating loss $2.60 billion

Connectivity (primarily Starlink)
Operating Income $𝟒.𝟒𝟐 billion

Space (Launches and Nasa)
Operating Loss $0.657 billion.

AI (xAI)
Operating Loss 6.36 billion
