Elon Musk has suggested timing a possible initial public offering of SpaceX to coincide with a planetary phenomenon and his birthday in June, the Financial Times reported. The owner of the rocket maker is considering timing the offering to coincide with when Jupiter and Venus appear very close together, the FT reported, citing five people familiar with the matter. That suggests a date in the middle of June, the same month the billionaire turns 55.
Last year, the Cybertruck spiraled into market irrelevance while the rest of the EV market found its footing, as the pickup experienced the single biggest sales collapse of any electric vehicle in the United States. Elon Musk's flailing company managed to move only an estimated 20,237 Cybertrucks in 2025. And that's counting the units that Musk reportedly bought for himself through SpaceX and xAI to avoid further ridicule.
Elon Musk's social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, was reportedly down for tens of thousands of users worldwide on Friday, according to a site that keeps track of online outages.

Nazi-sympathizer and billionaire Elon Musk said he wants full custody of the son he had with conservative author Ashley St. Clair, claiming that "her statements [imply] she might transition a one-year-old boy." Musk's comment came after St. Clair publicly criticized Musk for helping generate pornographic images of kids and apologizing for her past transphobia. Musk already has an estranged trans daughter, Vivian Jenna Wilson, who has disavowed his transphobia.
