Shares of several retail brokers that offered shares of SpaceX to customers at the IPO price rose on Friday, although not as dramatically as SpaceX's more than 20% gain. Charles Schwab shares were up 3% in late afternoon trading Friday, although the company also had some non-SpaceX good news of its own that probably helped boost the stock: solid growth in new assets and brokerage accounts. Robinhood's stock gained more than 1.5%, despite the fact that the firm reported some technical issues earlier Friday due to the "record-breaking traffic."

The brokerage’s official help account posted on X that the platform saw “record-breaking traffic today.”

Investors may not have gotten as many shares of SpaceX from brokerage firms as they would have liked. There were some technical issues at Robinhood, however.
