    May 30, 2026, 3:10 AM EDT. Traders place over 90% odds on Elon Musk becoming the world's first trillionaire before 2027 amid anticipation of SpaceX's blockbuster initial public offering (IPO). After surpassing $700 billion in net worth late last year, Musk's wealth prospects surged following a Delaware Supreme Court ruling favoring Tesla stock options. Musk refuted Bloomberg reports of a lowered SpaceX valuation, reaffirming its upcoming IPO will surpass historic deals. Analysts expect a potential SpaceX-Tesla merger next year, citing Musk's interest in expanding control over the artificial intelligence (AI) ecosystem. SpaceX filed confidentially with the SEC in April and plans to list on Nasdaq next month.
