    Elon Musk Becomes The World's First Trillionaire Ever After SpaceX IPO

    Elon Musk just became the first trillionaire in world history. SpaceX’s stock began trading on the Nasdaq Friday at $150 per share, implying a nearly $2 trillion market cap for the company. Forbes estimates that Musk is now worth $1.1 trillion as of just before noon eastern Friday, up from $982 billion on Thursday, when SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 share. The IPO pricing boosted Musk’s fortune by $188 billion yesterday, according to Forbes’ calculations.  Musk, who serves as chairman, CEO and chief technical officer of SpaceX, owns 4.8 billion shares of the rocketmaker, worth $715 billion. He has another 350 million stock options with an exercise price of $8.40 per share, worth $50 billion, giving him a 38% stake in the company, worth $765 billion. Before SpaceX priced its IPO on Thursday, Forbes had been valuing Musk’s estimated 40% stake (before dilution from the offering) at around $500 billion, based on the $1.25 trillion valuation of SpaceX’s merger with Musk’s artificial intelligence and social media company xAI in February. (xAI previously merged with X–formerly Twitter–in March 2025.)  Musk also owns just over 10% of $1.5 trillion (market cap) Tesla, worth $163 billion, plus options to acquire another nearly 8% stake, worth $113 billion. Rounding out his net worth are smaller stakes in his brain interface startup Neuralink and his tunneling firm Boring Company, plus several billion dollars’ of wealth from previous Tesla share sales.

    Elon Musk Boosts Unsubstantiated Claims About LA Mayor Election As Spencer Pratt Drops To Third

    Elon Musk early on Monday boosted unsubstantiated claims questioning the results of the primary elections in California, focusing specifically on the Los Angeles Mayoral primary, as the progressive Democratic candidate Nithya Raman overtook Republican Spencer Pratt's vote count, putting her on track to join incumbent mayor Karen Bass in a runoff. According to the Associated Press, 83% of the votes have been tallied so far in the Mayoral primary and Raman has secured 27.1% of the vote, putting her narrowly ahead of Pratt, who has 26.7%. AP has already called the race for Bass, who is moving ahead to the runoff, where she will be joined by either Pratt or Raman. Pratt, a former reality star whose campaign borrowed President Donald Trump’s playbook and leaned on dissatisfaction over Bass’ handling of last year’s wildfires, was leading Raman when the first tranche of votes was released last Tuesday night.
