Elon Musk Hits $1 Trillion Fortune Again as SpaceX Stock Surge Adds $30.6 Billion in a Day

Elon Musk's net worth surpassed $1 trillion again after SpaceX shares rose 5% to $167, adding $30.6 billion in a day. Tesla's shares also contributed to the increase. SpaceX's recent orbital flight success and Morgan Stanley's undervaluation note drove the surge. SpaceX reported $18.67 billion in 2025 revenue but a $4.94 billion net loss. Musk's wealth is closely tied to his stakes in SpaceX and Tesla.
