Here's the twist. SpaceX doesn't have to do anything at all. It can go bankrupt tomorrow and its valuation will only go up.

The stock market never made any sense whatsoever, and this is just peak stock market behaviour.

The major indices already said they're not buying. That number they made up was counting on forcing them to buy automatically.

Right, but hear me out: I know that SpaceX is impossibly overvalued and that makes me smart. So what if I bought some SpaceX stock, waited for some rubes to buy the stock from me at higher price and then I cashed out? Since I'm so smart, I'm sure I could get in and get out before the whole thing falls apart. /s

Well… with the help of a lot of naive investors, some pedophile politicians and the amount of drugs he’s taking, everything is in the realm of possibilities

$1.75 trillion is impossible unless people develop a strange love for this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceX_Starshield

satellites designed to provide new military space capabilities to U.S. and allied governments

The primary project SpaceX is reportedly vying for are contracts for the Golden Dome space weapons system.

That's the ticket to win nuclear war (or dream about it) and it will be priced accordingly.
