Elon Musk Becomes World’s First $500 Billion Individual, Driven by SpaceX and xAI Valuations

  • Elon Musk has become the first person ever to surpass a net worth of $500 billion.
  • Increases in the value of SpaceX and Artificial Intelligence firm xAI are the main drivers of this milestone.
  • Recent internal share sales have raised SpaceX‘s valuation to roughly $350 billion.
  • Musk now holds a lead of more than $300 billion over the world’s second-richest individual, Larry Ellison.
  • Analysts now consider Musk the top contender to become the world’s first trillionaire.

Elon Musk has officially exceeded $500 billion in net worth, making him the first individual in history to reach this financial mark. The new valuation was reported following substantial valuation growth in both his aerospace company, SpaceX, and his artificial intelligence startup, xAI.

According to recent developments, insider share sales elevated SpaceX‘s value to about $350 billion. Additionally, xAI acquired significant funding, placing its valuation in the range of tens of billions of dollars. These increases have directly contributed to the current estimate of Musk‘s wealth.

The performance of the SpaceX Starship program and the company’s dominant share in commercial satellite launches have played a significant role in driving this record-breaking fortune. The company now manages most global satellite deliveries. According to reports, “The surge in Elon Musk net worth has been attributed to insider share sales that valued SpaceX at roughly $350 billion.”

With Musk‘s net worth now half way to $1 trillion, analysts are discussing the possibility that he could become the first trillionaire. The financial gap between Musk and Larry Ellison, currently the second-richest person estimated at about $200 billion, is now over $300 billion. Market performance and company valuations remain key factors in whether Musk will continue to break financial records.
