Elon Musk reclaimed his trillionaire status on Monday in the United States after a blistering rally in SpaceX and Tesla sent his personal fortune soaring by about $62 billion in a single trading day, according to billionaires' wealth trackers.
Musk had only just slipped back below the trillion‑dollar mark less than a week earlier, ending a brief but historic spell as the first person ever recorded with a net worth above $1 trillion. The reversal underlines how tightly his wealth is now lashed to two highly volatile companies, one newly public and the other effectively a leveraged bet on his own ambitions.
