FMR owns 0.98% of existing SpaceX shares across 46 Fidelity funds, according to S&amp;P data.<\/p>\n<p>Baron Capital Group owns 0.21% of the outstanding shares across seven funds. Franklin Resources, BlackRock, and Neuberger Berman also hold shares of SpaceX in several funds. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-relatedContent\" id=\"SpecialReportArticle-RelatedContent-1\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-container\">\n<div class=\"RelatedContent-nonCollapsibleContent\">\n<h2 id=\"more-from-your-money\" class=\"RelatedContent-header\">More from Your Money:<\/h2>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p><em>Here&#8217;s a look at more stories on how to manage, grow and protect your money for the years ahead.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Eight active funds \u2014 mutual funds, ETFs, and closed-end funds \u2014 hold positions in SpaceX that exceed 10% of their net asset value, according to Morningstar&#8217;s most recent data. Funds with the most exposure include four Baron funds, where SpaceX accounts for 20% or more of their assets.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>SpaceX will also be included in some passive index funds in the coming weeks, as the company enters two major stock indexes that have recently introduced policies to fast-track the adoption of mega-IPOs. <\/p>\n<p>The Russell 1000 can include a massive IPO after as few as five days of trading. For SpaceX, that would be Thursday after the market close. Nasdaq adds a stock to the Nasdaq-100 after 15 trading days \u2014 or, in this case, on July 6.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"what-spacex-means-for-your-401k\" class=\"ArticleBody-subtitle\"><a id=\"headline1\"\/>What SpaceX means for your 401(k)<\/h2>\n<div class=\"InlineImage-imageEmbed\" id=\"ArticleBody-InlineImage-108321264\" data-test=\"InlineImage\">\n<div class=\"InlineImage-wrapper\">\n<div>\n<p>SpaceX displayed outside the Nasdaq as the company launches their IPO on June 12, 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Adam Jeffery | CNBC<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Once SpaceX is in these indexes, the stock will be added to mutual funds and exchange-traded funds that track these benchmarks, including index funds and ETFs in many 401(k)s and workplace retirement plans, experts say. If you own these funds, you&#8217;ll own SpaceX.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;From a 401(k) plan perspective, I would say it&#8217;s not an immediate opportunity,&#8221; said Jaime Magyera, head of BlackRock&#8217;s Retirement and U.S. Wealth Advisory businesses. But, for some people, the stock &#8220;will gradually make its way into index funds that are likely in their 401(k) plans.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Since SpaceX listed on the Nasdaq with a low percentage of publicly traded shares \u2014 known as a small &#8220;float&#8221; \u2014 experts say its initial impact and overall weight in these benchmark indexes will be modest. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s one of many, many, many stocks in the ETF,&#8221; said Sylvia Kwan, CEO of Ellevest, a wealth management and financial planning firm. But, &#8220;if SpaceX does well, you could still benefit by not directly investing in stock.&#8221; <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2 id=\"check-under-the-hood\" class=\"ArticleBody-subtitle\"><a id=\"headline2\"\/>Check &#8216;under the hood&#8217;<\/h2>\n<div class=\"group\">\n<p>Keep an eye on the funds&#8217; holdings in your portfolio to see whether they own SpaceX or other high-flying stocks, and how large an allocation. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m not sure whether people have really looked under the hood,&#8221; Kwan said. &#8220;But I would like to think that this could be the beginning of that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to large allocations of SpaceX stock in a particular fund or across your portfolio, &#8220;some people might be comfortable with that level of risk,&#8221; said certified financial planner Nathan Nicholaisen of Redspire Wealth Management in Des Moines, Iowa. &#8220;I can&#8217;t answer that for them, but I think the first part is just awareness.&#8221;  <\/p>\n<p>Nicholaisen said investors should ask themselves, &#8220;Are you comfortable with that level of risk based on how much you have allocated to it and what your long-term goals are?&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>SIGN UP:<\/strong>\u00a0<\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/money101\/\"><em>Money 101\u00a0<\/em><\/a><em>is an 8-week learning course on financial freedom, delivered weekly to your inbox.
