Elon Musk’s Net Worth Tops $400 Billion, a Historic First
Published On Dec 11, 2024, 11:41 AM
Elon Musk has reached a historic net worth of over $400 billion, primarily fueled by a recent insider sale of shares from SpaceX, which increased his net worth substantially. This surge comes amid a significant recovery from a previous drop where he lost more than $200 billion and is supported by his ties to the incoming Trump administration, which may favor his businesses like Tesla and SpaceX. Tesla’s stock has seen a notable rise post-election, driven by optimistic expectations about the future policies regarding electric vehicles. Additionally, Musk's AI startup, xAI, has gained significant valuation growth following Trump's election.
