SpaceX Listing Pushes Elon Musk Beyond the Trillion-Dollar Mark

Elon Musk has become the first trillionaire following the initial trading day of SpaceX shares. Data from FactSet and the Securities and Exchange Commission confirm this wealth milestone. This expansion of the Overton window of wealth is expected to reignite discussions concerning the divergence between wage earners and market-based wealth. Furthermore, it highlights the growing political power of such individuals, especially considering Musk's erratic behavior, online trolling, and support for global right-wing politics.
