Shares of Elon Musk's space company SpaceX (SPCX) have been on a roll since its IPO. It just so happens that the roll has mostly been downwards, which was expected after a bumper initial burst.

Well, the proposed $100 billion starship complex in Louisiana is the company's way of messaging that there will be no slowdown in capex spend.
