SpaceX Stock Plunges 25% in Five Days; Elon Musk Loses Trillionaire Status
Summary
SpaceX stock has plummeted over 25% in the past five trading sessions, pushing its price near the 52-week low and causing Elon Musk's net worth to fall below $1 trillion. This sharp decline follows the company's highly anticipated IPO earlier this month, which initially saw its valuation surge to nearly $3 trillion and Musk's wealth peak at $1.3 trillion. The significant price drop, coupled with a jump in short interest from 8% to 13% of the public float, signals a strong negative shift in market sentiment for the newly public company.
