SpaceX soars another 7% today, breaking through a $2.2 trillion market cap! Musk's net worth skyrockets to $1.2 trillion in the short term.
The global financial markets are once again thoroughly shaken by Elon Musk's space empire! Following a nearly 20% surge on its first day of trading last Friday, the space technology giant SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) continued its crazy rally during this morning's U.S. stock market session, with the stock price soaring another 6% to 7%, breaking through the $171 mark. The company's total market value has been driven up to over $2.2 trillion by frantic capital inflows. This historic wave of funding also caused Musk's personal paper wealth to briefly reach an astonishing $1.2 trillion during trading, firmly securing his position as the world's first "trillionaire."
(Background recap: Musk boasts that SpaceX's revenue could reach $1 trillion by 2030, rivaling the world's largest companies)

The tidal wave of capital following the listing of the world's strongest unicorn shows no signs of stopping. The largest public offering in history—Elon Musk's space tech giant SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX)—experienced a frenzy last Friday (the 12th), with an enormous trading volume of 520 million shares and a 19.22% surge by the close. Today (the 15th), during the early trading hours in the U.S., a new round of full-scale rally has begun. Wall Street institutions and global retail investors are aggressively chasing the price, rapidly rewriting historical records in the global capital markets.
Continues to soar before the market opens, stock price hits a peak of $172, market cap approaches the top five in the U.S.
According to the latest real-time data from the Nasdaq exchange, SPCX continued its extreme momentum this morning, with the stock price rising another approximately 6% to 7%, quickly fluctuating around $171 to $172 per share. Looking back to last Friday, SpaceX opened strongly at $150, above the issuance price of $135, with an intraday high of $176.52, and closed at $160.95.
As the stock price surged again today, SpaceX's total market value has been further pushed above $2.2 trillion, not only solidifying its position as the second-largest physical entity behind the world's largest cryptocurrency and digital asset treasury but also surpassing many longstanding S&P 500 giants, rising into the top six U.S. companies by market cap. Market analysts point out that the formidable moat of Starlink's low Earth orbit satellites, the monopolistic technology of rocket recovery, and the vast potential of space AI data centers, combined with expectations of rapid inclusion into the Nasdaq-100 index through passive fund inflows in the short term, are the core drivers fueling this space financing perpetual motion machine's continued surge.
Breaking new ground in human wealth history! Musk briefly tops the list as a "$1.2 trillion billionaire"
This century-defining wealth storm triggered by SpaceX has directly reshaped the global billionaire rankings. According to real-time data from Bloomberg and Forbes, Musk's net worth has now stabilized above $1.1 trillion, far surpassing the second place. At the peak of today’s stock price rally, Musk’s personal wealth briefly hit an astronomical $1.2 trillion during trading, creating the ultimate myth of the first "1.2 trillion-dollar billionaire" in human history.
Breaking down the holdings, Musk currently owns about 38% to 42% of SpaceX shares (including large options, totaling about 4.8 billion shares). Just this "space asset" alone is worth between $700 billion and $800 billion, making it the main contributor to his wealth. Plus, his holdings in Tesla (10%), Neuralink, and The Boring Company further boosted his personal assets by nearly $200 billion in the short period before and after this IPO.
