U.S. stocks climbed Friday, buoyed by hopes of a U.S.-Iran peace deal and the historic debut of SpaceX, which surged past its IPO price. Progress in peace talks eased inflation and interest rate concerns, while SpaceX’s strong opening captivated investors despite its recent losses. Other space stocks saw a slight pullback.

SpaceX’s record $75 billion IPO includes a greenshoe option, allowing for the sale of an additional 15% of shares. This standard feature, designed to stabilize trading, could raise SpaceX an extra $11.2 billion if demand remains strong. The greenshoe option, named after a 1960 IPO, helps manage volatility for newly listed stocks.

South Korean stocks surged on Friday, with the KOSPI jumping as much as 8.5%, driven by optimism that Middle East tensions could ease after U.S. President Donald Trump signaled a possible Iran deal this weekend. The rally helped the index end a volatile week up 3.2%, recovering from the previous week’s 3.7% decline triggered by a global selloff in AI and technology stocks.

Asian investors, largely excluded from SpaceX’s massive IPO, are creatively seeking exposure through supply chain companies, industry ETFs, and Nasdaq 100 tracking funds. Perpetual futures and derivatives also offer speculative avenues, reflecting intense interest in the space giant’s market debut.
