From 1602 to SpaceX: The Same Story of Promise on the Stock Market
From 1602 to SpaceX, this episode connects stock market history with current market events. We start with the very first IPO, that of the Dutch East India Company in Amsterdam, and draw a parallel with SpaceX, its promises, its collective narrative, and the risk shared with the public. Between historical anecdotes, the psychology of small shareholders, speculation, oil, the Nasdaq, and Trump's announcements on Iran, the common thread remains the same: the public is sold a future as much as an asset.
