Trump’s Win Sparks Dramatic Surge in Musk’s Wealth as Tesla Soars

-

Musk’s Wealth Surges by $20.9 Billion After Trump’s Success

Following Donald Trump’s recent political success, Elon Musk’s fortune jumped nearly 8%, adding $20.9 billion and bringing his net worth to $285.6 billion, according to the Forbes Real-Time Billionaires list.

Tesla’s stock saw a 14.8% surge, with analysts viewing this as a response to anticipated business-friendly policies under Trump. Market shifts suggest Tesla could reap significant profits, while smaller competitors might struggle if subsidies for alternative energy and EVs face cuts.

Shares of Chinese EV makers, including Nio, Rivian, and Lucid, dropped between 5-8%, possibly due to expected tariffs on Chinese imports that could curb competition in the U.S. market.

Musk isn’t the only tech magnate to benefit; Trump’s win also boosted the wealth of Amazon’s Jeff Bezos and Oracle’s Larry Ellison. However, economists note there are still questions about the long-term effects of Trump’s policies on the tech and business sectors.
