Today at 3:38 PM UTC Grace O'Donnell 3 things regular investors should know about the SpaceX IPO Yahoo Finance’s David Hollerith reports that hundreds of IPO bankers, wealth managers, customer service agents, and other staff have been put on notice.

Halls of Manhattan bank lobbies are decked with rocket videos. JPMorgan Chase ( JPM ), the country's biggest bank, is planning to throw a party on Friday afternoon. It's all fanfare over SpaceX's ( SPCX ) public debut on Friday.

Here are three things to know: The IPO has a big retail allocation, but some investors may get less than they expect: The average investor may have far less opportunity to jump in than it seems. Requesting IPO shares doesn't guarantee investors will get any. On the other hand, SpaceX is breaking ground in how it's reserving space for brokerages like Charles Schwab, E-Trade, Fidelity, Robinhood, and SoFi, which cater more to everyday investors.

Wall Street rations shares when demand surpasses supply: Demand for SpaceX shares is expected to exceed the supply available in the pre-IPO allocation, according to sources familiar with the deal. All else equal, that means many investors won't get what they ask for, and that's exactly the kind of tension bankers want. Most investors won't pay the IPO price: SpaceX's IPO is set to price at $135.

That's only available to investors who get an allocation before the stock begins trading. Everyone else will wait until the stock trades on the public market, and unless things go poorly, the price will be higher. Read more here.
