⚡️📉 NEW - Elon Musk has lost more than $60 billion in wealth following Republican defeats in the U.S. midterm elections, despite spending an estimated $446 million to help the party retain control of Congress.
Much of his political spending targeted Texas, where Republicans suffered a major setback.
Tesla shares fell 5.7%, while SpaceX was reported down 7.6% in early trading, further denting Musk’s fortune.
Democratic-controlled Congress could also intensify scrutiny of a potential Tesla-SpaceX merger before Trump leaves office in 2029.
