To be overvalued by an order of magnitude, it'd have to have a fair valuation of under $180 B.

At ~5 billion per year in profit, Starlink alone would justify a 100 B valuation at a P/E ratio of 20 (i.e. assuming a non-growth company). If you account for the fact that this is very much a growth company, the valuation of the space part alone is well above these $180B.

And they do happen to have the launch and AI businesses on top of it, which (as usual for growth companies) may not be obscenely profitable but aren't worthless.

If 90% of the value is from the AI business, it's grossly undervalued.
