SpaceX Lost $500 Billion in a Month, and No One's Panicking
from Solving America's Problems
Elon Musk's net worth is down to "only" $600 billion after SpaceX lost $500 billion in value over the past month. Jerremy Alexander Newsome and Dave Conley open on the US-Iran conflict — Iran's health ministry says 50 civilians are dead and hundreds are hospitalized, and there's still no diplomacy on the table. Micron is down 34% since June 24, Intel's off 35%, and Dell has doubled since March while chopping sideways at resistance. Jerremy expects SpaceX to keep falling before a relief rally, and thinks Tesla will "ping-pong" through earnings the same way it did last summer. Dave breaks down the local political fights erupting over AI data centers' water and power use, plus the case for a rout in the midterms if the economy stays weak — his outside bet is that the president won't finish his term.
