Elon Musk is at the Center of Two Spectacular Market Cap Rises



1. Tesla

Tesla market cap hit $1 trillion for the first time after Hertz said it would buy 100,000 electric vehicles.

The deal with Hertz will bring in a reported $4.2 billion for Tesla and is the largest ever purchase of electric vehicles.

Forbes richest ever.  Elon’s net worth jumped $over $25B to around $255B, making him the richest billionaire ever tracked by Forbes.

2. Shiba Inu’s Roller Coaster Ride

Sunday.  Elon tweeted a picture of his puppy, and coincidentally(?) helped Shiba Inu coin’s 50% rise in 24 hours.

Monday. Someone asked Elon on Twitter how much Shiba Inu he owned, to which he answered “None,” which sent the coin spiraling down 15%...

FYI, Elon also revealed the cryptos he does own:  Bitcoin, Ether and Dogecoin.
