Elon Musk has made history. The business leader is now the first trillionaire in the world. This milestone occurred after a major stock market event on Friday. His wealth reached a new peak.

The sudden surge in wealth is due to his two major firms. These companies are SpaceX and Tesla. Both firms saw significant stock activity on Friday. Investors showed massive interest in his companies.

The main driver of his fortune was the stock market listing of SpaceX. This aerospace firm debuted on the Nasdaq exchange on Friday morning. The company opened trading at a set price of 150 dollars per share.
