ASML Holding (NASDAQ: ASML) stock got a modest 1.6% bump on Monday, lost it all on Tuesday, but is up again even more on Wednesday — 6.1% through 11:25 a.m. ET. And why?<\/p>\n

It may surprise you to learn that I think the same thing that didn’t get enough attention Monday is finally on investors’ radar today: The SpaceX(NASDAQ: SPCX) IPO is going to be very good news for ASML.<\/p>\n

Will AI create the world’s first trillionaire? Our team just released a report on the one little-known company, called an “Indispensable Monopoly” providing the critical technology Nvidia and Intel both need. Continue \u00bb<\/a><\/p>\n

SpaceX is flush with cash now<\/p>\n

SpaceX made history last week, both scoring a gigantic valuation (currently $2.5 trillion) and raising more than $80 billion in cash<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now SpaceX must figure out how to deploy all this cash to keep the growth going. And here’s the thing: According to Canadian private equity shop<\/a> Lynx Equity, SpaceX will spend quite a lot of this cash on semiconductors<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Most investors think of SpaceX as a space company (I mean, it’s right there in the name!) And yet, the gigantic tech company that IPO’ed last week is really much more of an AI stock<\/a>, as SpaceX demonstrated just yesterday when it splashed out $60 billion in stock to buy Cursor<\/a>.<\/p>\n

What this means for ASML<\/p>\n

As Lynx explains, AI companies buy lots of AI chips to first train and then deploy their large language models to answer questions. SpaceX can therefore be expected to spend a significant portion of its IPO proceeds on semiconductor chips.<\/p>\n

In turn, companies like Nvidia(NASDAQ: NVDA) and Intel(NASDAQ: INTC) (or their third-party contractors), which sell those chips to SpaceX, can be expected to spend heavily on machines from ASML to make them.<\/p>\n

This makes ASML a great way to play the SpaceX IPO phenomenon<\/a>. And the best news of all? Even valued at just 18 sales, ASML stock is still 7x cheaper than SpaceX!<\/p>\n
