The owner of Telsa tweeted about taking Tesla private at $420 a share, widely interpreted as a reference to April 20, a day of celebration for cannabis smokers. Musk’s decision to rename Twitter to X is also seen as a nod to his early payments startup X.com, a name that was lost when it merged with PayPal.
SpaceX is looking to raise as much as $50 billion in the offering at a valuation of about $1.5 trillion, the FT reported, which would make it the largest IPO in history. SpaceX did not respond to the FT’s request for comment.
