very least \u2014 made his fortune by creating two firms, Zip2 and PayPal, that netted him about $200 million at sale. He used that cash to start out SpaceX and put money into Tesla, and defied the percentages by making a space company that found out methods to reuse rockets and a automotive company that made electric vehicles cool.<\/p>\n<div class=\"c-tabs\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t<button role=\"tab\" class=\"c-tabs__tab c-tabs__tab--active\" type=\"button\">More on Money<\/button><br \/>\n\t\t\t<button role=\"tab\" class=\"c-tabs__tab\" type=\"button\">More videos<\/button>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"c-ad c-ad--bigbox l-article__ad\">\n<p>Story continues below commercial<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Musk has realized vast sums of wealth for himself, much of it in stock he has yet to money in or grants for shares he\u2019ll only receive if Tesla or SpaceX hit ambitious performance targets. His recent pay package from Tesla drew criticism from the Vatican. At Tesla, he\u2019s fearful shareholders by fighting with regulators or dividing his attention between multiple firms and last yr by taking a task within the Trump administration.<\/p>\n<p>But a rising stock price has cured all ills: Because it went public in 2010, Tesla has returned 20,000% for shareholders, or greater than $1.2 trillion in investor wealth. That has helped lift Musk\u2019s pre-SpaceX IPO price to $795 billion, based on Forbes magazine.<\/p>\n<p>SpaceX is the primary of three \u201cmegacap\u201d firms expected to go public this yr, with Anthropic and OpenAI to follow. Nasdaq even revised its rules to permit SpaceX to realize entry into funds tied to its indexes in 15 days, which suggests investors will find yourself buying the rocket maker\u2019s shares much earlier.<\/p>\n<p>Not all investors are thrilled about SpaceX potentially showing up of their holdings of index funds. Officials from pension funds for firefighters, teachers and other employees in California and Latest York sent a letter to SpaceX last month decrying a few of the provisions in its IPO, including the \u201csuper voting shares,\u201d mandatory arbitration of shareholder claims as a substitute of the opportunity of lawsuits and the way much power Musk will hold over the corporate.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\n<p>\n\t\t&#038;copy 2026 The Canadian Press\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Elon Musk may never colonize Mars as promised, but enough investors consider the SpaceX founder to be a form of miracle man that they\u2019ll help him reach one other implausible goal Friday when he takes the rocket company public.
