Elon Musk

Great interview with 

  • 10000 Starship launches annually. Low rate compared to airplanes.

Merger with Tesla

SpaceX and XaI merged. Presumably Elon has super voting control. Now SpaceXaI will acquire $TLSA at a premium (~30%). They're similarly valued at ~$1.5T each. 

AND I think/hope Elon also offers an "allocation" of pre-IPO shares to Long-term Tesla shareholders (maybe > 3 years).

Tesla


Netflix

With Zuck’s move to Florida, California’s total taxable wealth from billionaires has plummeted to well under $1T from over $2T just a few weeks ago.
