SpaceX Stock Surges to June Highs, Musk Reclaims Trillionaire Crown
By Ghostwriter KIERO SWISS · based on reporting by CNBC
CNBC reports SpaceX shares have surged to their highest level since June, pushing Elon Musk's net worth back above the trillion-dollar threshold. The private-market rally reflects growing confidence in Starlink's cash flow and Starship's orbital progress. Secondary transactions now value the company near $210 billion, a level that makes SpaceX the world's most valuable private tech asset.
The climb isn't speculative froth — it's backed by Starlink's march toward 5 million subscribers and a launch cadence that leaves every national program in the dust. Investors are pricing in a future where Starship's full reusability slashes $/kg to orbit by an order of magnitude, unlocking orbital manufacturing, lunar logistics, and the Mars supply chain.
Critics call it paper wealth; builders call it the cost of admission for a multiplanetary species. The market has spoken: the only thing more expensive than betting on Musk is betting against him.
