    RBS 250: Will the SpaceX IPO Crash the Stock Market? (FQF)

    This week in Five Question Friday (FQF): mega IPOs, sequence of returns risk, RMDs from a bonds-only IRA, Roth conversions after 59 1/2, and VT versus VTI plus VXUS. Question 1: Will the giant IPOs coming in 2026 drain money from the market and depress stock prices? Question 2: Is 20% to 30% in bonds enough protection against sequence of returns risk? Question 3: If you move your IRA entirely into bonds, will RMDs force you to sell bonds when they're down? Question 4: If you're over 59 1/2, why not make every IRA withdrawal a Roth conversion? Question 5: Is "VT and chill" costing you 0.7% a year compared to holding VTI and VXUS separately? Resources mentioned in the video: SpaceX IPO pricing: https://www.npr.org/2026/06/11/nx-s1-...
