Editor’s Note: What if you could claim a stake in a technology set to become 100X bigger than Bitcoin… starting with just $2? Click here to see the details from investing legend and Washington D.C. insider Jeff Brown — the man who picked Bitcoin, Tesla, and Nvidia before they exploded higher. Or read more below.

Dear Reader,

Forget Wall Street and forget Silicon Valley.

The biggest investing moment in human history…

Happened in Amsterdam, with the birth of the Dutch East India Trading Company in 1602.

The world’s first IPO.

Now in 2026... a strangely similar event is unfolding.

Tech billionaires like Elon Musk, Brian Amstrong, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, and Robinhood founder Vlad Tenev are heavily invested.

And 10 out of 10 of the world’s largest banks are quietly positioning themselves.

But this time…

The next batch of millionaires won’t be made in the stock market.

Because this has nothing to do with the IPO of SpaceX, or any AI IPOs stealing headlines.

The move I’m recommending is easier and more accessible.

No picking and choosing from a list of upcoming IPOs…

Because just $2 is all you need to stake your claim in this historic event.

Sincerely,

Jeff Brown
Founder & CEO, Brownstone Research
— THE OPEN
   

The Nasdaq fell 4% on Friday. Chip stocks lost more than $1 trillion in two sessions. The May jobs report came in at 172,000, more than double what Wall Street expected.

Three events land in three days this week. Apple opens WWDC on Monday. The CPI prints Tuesday. SpaceX prices the largest IPO in history on Wednesday.

Public markets are selling. Private capital is buying. The CPI decides which side blinks.
01 The Week
 
   
Monday: Apple Bets $1 Billion on Google’s AI 1:00 P.M. ET

Apple opens WWDC 2026 at 1 p.m. ET on Monday with what Wall Street is calling the most important AI catalyst for the stock this year. The rebuilt Siri, reportedly powered by a custom 1.2 trillion parameter Google Gemini model under a $1 billion annual deal, is the headline investors are watching.

Morgan Stanley holds a $330 price target on Apple with a bull case of $440 on an AI re-rating. If the Siri demo is credible, the read-through lifts Alphabet as much as Apple. If it falls flat, it confirms the question the chip sell-off just raised: whether AI spending is producing returns the market will pay for.
   
Tuesday: The CPI Print That Sets the Rate 8:30 A.M. ET

The May CPI lands Tuesday morning. April was 3.8% year over year, the highest since 2023. Core came in at 2.8%. The month-over-month figure was 0.6%, seasonally adjusted.

Friday’s jobs report just made the print hotter to trade. Payrolls of 172,000 against an 80,000 consensus pushed the 10-year Treasury yield to 4.54% and the VIX to 21.51. Polymarket prices 69% odds of zero Fed rate cuts this year. If May CPI rises above 3.8%, rate-hike pricing accelerates into the June 16–17 FOMC. If it eases, Friday was the shakeout.
   
Wednesday–Thursday: SpaceX Prices Into a Sell-Off

SpaceX is expected to price at $135 per share on Wednesday, targeting a $1.75 trillion valuation. The Nasdaq debut as SPCX is scheduled for Thursday. Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are leading a 21-bank syndicate on a $75 billion raise, more than twice the record Saudi Aramco set in 2019.

Polymarket prices 98% odds the closing market cap clears $1 trillion. But the tape that SpaceX needs to absorb $75 billion in new equity just suffered its worst week in ten. The Nasdaq shed 4.18% on Friday alone. The private market is pricing euphoria. The public market just priced risk. The CPI on Tuesday determines which one the IPO walks into.

02 Worth Knowing
 

No IPO in history has raised $75 billion. The previous record was Saudi Aramco at $29.4 billion in 2019. SpaceX is asking the market to absorb more than twice the largest offering ever recorded.

At $1.75 trillion, SpaceX would become the seventh-largest company in America by market cap, above Tesla. Twenty-one banks are underwriting the deal. Retail investors are expected to receive roughly 30% of the float.

The last time a company this large went public, it was Aramco, and the listing priced into a rising oil market. SpaceX is pricing into a falling Nasdaq. The roadshow ran through the worst chip-stock week since April 2025. Institutional demand in the final book-build determines whether the price holds.

WEEK AHEAD

Monday, 1:00 p.m. ET — Apple WWDC keynote. The Siri 2.0 reveal and whether it re-rates the AI trade for the largest company by market cap.

Tuesday, 8:30 a.m. ET — May CPI. April was 3.8%. This is the last inflation print before the June 16–17 FOMC meeting.

Wednesday — SpaceX IPO pricing. FIFA World Cup opens.

Thursday — SPCX Nasdaq debut. The largest first-day listing in market history.

June 16–17 — FOMC meeting. Polymarket prices a 98% hold. The real question is what the statement says about the next move.

Three lenses read the same week differently. Polymarket prices 98% odds the SpaceX market cap clears $1 trillion and 69% odds the Fed never cuts this year. That is not cautious and optimistic. That is two separate bets on two separate economies. The CPI print on Tuesday determines which one the rest of the week prices.

Real money sees what headlines miss.
