Elon Musk continues to be the richest man in the world, with an estimated fortune of 792 billion dollars, but he has suffered considerable losses due to the decline in the value of SpaceX shares.
The company debuted on Nasdaq in June, reaching a peak of 225.64 dollars per share, but has lost nearly 40% of its value in four weeks, reducing its market capitalization by over 1 trillion dollars. Recent failures of the Starship program have amplified the decline, directly affecting Musk's wealth, who owns 42% of SpaceX.
Additionally, the valuation of his Tesla holdings has been reduced by 116 billion dollars, contributing to a total loss of over 500 billion dollars.
The geopolitical context, including threats from Iran, has added pressure on the shares. Nevertheless, analysts believe that the decline could be a temporary adjustment, with optimistic estimates for the future of SpaceX.
