What Will Elon Musk’s Net Worth Be After the SpaceX IPO?
Elon Musk is already the richest person on earth by a considerable margin. After the SpaceX IPO on June 12, he may become something no individual has ever been: a trillionaire.
Where He Stands Today
According to Forbes’ real-time billionaire tracker, Musk’s net worth stood at approximately $788.8 billion as of June 2026, a figure already so large it barely registers as a real number. His wealth is spread across Tesla, where his stock and options are worth roughly $455 billion combined, and SpaceX, which has been privately held until now.
Larry Page sits in second place globally at around $300 to $334 billion, followed by Sergey Brin at approximately $285 billion. Musk is not just leading the list, he is in a different category entirely.
What the IPO Adds
SpaceX is pricing at $135 per share for a valuation of approximately $1.77 trillion, making it the largest IPO in financial history. Musk owns roughly 41% of the company. At the IPO valuation, his SpaceX stake alone is worth approximately $866.5 billion on paper, a figure confirmed in the company’s updated SEC prospectus filed this week.
Add his Tesla holdings and other interests and analysts estimate Musk’s total net worth could exceed $1 trillion, potentially reaching $1.1 trillion depending on where SpaceX trades on listing day and in the weeks that follow. That would represent a gain of more than $300 billion from his current position and would make him the first person in recorded history to cross the trillion-dollar threshold.
The Catch
Musk’s SpaceX shares are locked up for more than 12 months following the listing, meaning the paper wealth cannot be accessed immediately. Some other insiders have shorter lock-up periods and may be able to sell sooner.
SpaceX is also just the first of three historic listings expected this year. Anthropic and OpenAI are both anticipated to go public at valuations approaching $1 trillion each. If all three list successfully, the concentration of wealth at the very top of the global billionaire rankings will reach levels that have no historical precedent.
For now, the world is watching June 12. And so is Elon Musk, who will wake up that morning already the richest human being alive and likely end the day considerably richer still.
