Space Exploration Technologies Corp. Class A Common StockSpaceX shares dropped 41-45%, driving Musk's net worth decline.
Elon Musk is reportedly in talks to raise about $4 billion for The Boring Company at a valuation of roughly $20 billion, more than tripling its 2022 valuation of $5.7 billion, following a month in which his net worth fell approximately 37% from a peak of roughly $1.32 trillion to about $832 billion. The decline was driven primarily by a 41% to 45% drop in SpaceX shares and a 17.81% weekly fall in Tesla stock after the company reported second-quarter adjusted earnings of $0.33 per share, missing consensus by 38.51%, and swung to negative $1.09 billion in free cash flow. The Boring Company, which operates the Vegas Loop and has pitched projects in multiple cities, has built only about 2.4 miles of operating tunnel across seven years and employs roughly 687 to 707 people. The funding round, which has not yet closed, would test whether Musk's brand can command a triple valuation on thin operating data.
