Elon Musk is selling investors a future of driverless cars, robot assistants and life on Mars. The problem is there’s only one way to buy into his vision: Tesla Inc.’s stock.

Elon Musk is the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, an electric car manufacturer and energy provider. Born in South Africa, Musk made his way to the U.S. during the early 1990s and founded X.com, which later became PayPal.

Musk saw his wealth jump by $178 billion in just two days, putting his year-to-date gain at a record-breaking $216 billion as investors cheered Tesla’s driverless taxi tests in Texas, according to

Tesla stock closed at a fresh record high on Tuesday, completing a monthslong rebound from severe losses earlier in the year.

A video circulating online appeared to show a Tesla Model Y robotaxi with no safety monitor inside driving on Austin streets.

CEO, Elon Musk, weighed in on a post praising Google-parent Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ: GOOG) new hardware play, and the company's reemergence as the dominant player in the ongoing AI race.

The Tesla Cybertruck is among the company’s pricier offerings with a starting price of $79,990. ・Assuming SpaceX bought only the base variant, it still implies that the company spent about $80 million in acquiring Cybertrucks and potentially over $100 million.
