Elon Musk a trillionaire no more as SpaceX stock tumbles
When SpaceX went public on June 12 with the biggest IPO in history, Elon Musk immediately cemented himself as the first ever trillionaire.
Now, less than two weeks later, Musk has already lost that trillionaire status — as SpaceX stock tumbles for the fifth consecutive trading day.
On SpaceX's IPO day, the stock immediately rocketed from the $135 initial public offering price to more than $170 per share. On June 16, the company — traded under the ticker name SPACX — would hit a high of $225 per share.
But June 16 was also the day SpaceX announced that it had acquired the AI coding agent Cursor for $60 billion. Shortly after, SpaceX's downward spiral on the stock market began.
On Monday, SpaceX stock plummeted 16 percent and has yet to recover. On Tuesday, Musk lost his trillionaire status and became a plain old billionaire again — at least for now. SPACX dipped to $152 a share in early trading, before recovering slightly, hitting $154 at the closing bell — about 1% down on the day.
Musk's net worth at the SPACX high water mark was around $1.1 trillion. According to Forbes’s Real-Time Billionaires list, Musk’s net worth Tuesday is $957 billion. The exact amount has ebbed and flowed throughout the day, but is still well below the $1 trillion mark.
SpaceX is not profitable, largely thanks to the hit it took by absorbing Musk's AI company, xAI. Its valuation is based largely on Musk's promises for the company's future, including the untested premise of AI data centers in space.
That makes the company's stock daily volatile. In other words, prepare to see Musk's net worth continue to bounce around between billionaire and trillionaire status for some time to come.

Morocco have been one of the most impressive teams at the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They took the fight to Brazil in the opening game and scored a follow-up win over Scotland.
But Group C is still open to late developments, so the Moroccans will want a decisive, goal-heavy win over Haiti. That should be possible considering the disparity in overall quality between these squads — but there's always room for another major surprise before the group stage wraps up.

The group stage of the 2026 FIFA World Cup is coming to an end, with the third round of games now kicking off. Group A sees South Africa make a last ditch effort at qualifying for the knockout stage as they play South Korea. The South Africans have had a loss and a draw so far. They need a win for a chance to go through — as long as Czechia lose to Mexico in the other Group A game.
South Korea also need a win, which would see them advance from Group A with Mexico to the knockouts. South Korea showed major flair in their opener against the Czechs but were lacking the all-important quality in a follow-up loss to Mexico. Can they rediscover that quality for this decisive group contest?

Cool off with these 10 summer deals
Turns out, the weather forecast wasn't lying when it said this summer would be a scorcher. We're not even to July yet, and temps are creeping into uncomfortable territory. As someone who grew up in mild Seattle weather, I don't love the heat. Case in point: I decided to travel to Finland last July to get some cool respite. Instead, I ended up in a 90+ degree heatwave happening in the Arctic Circle. Go figure. This year, I'm taking matters into my own hands.
SEE ALSO: Amazon just dropped some rare Prime Day camping deals on Yeti and Coleman gearI've been reporting on Prime Day sales for five years now, and since I'm always looking for ways to cool down, I feel qualified to share some of the best cool summer deals I've found at Amazon. You can find me chilling with these items until things simmer down again in September.
Keep in mind, you can always head to your local library for a cool place to relax if all else fails.
A high-velocity fan for quick coolingIf you're not blessed with air conditioning, the Dreo Tower Fan is a necessity to get through summer heat. It has eight fan speeds and four modes, including a setting for sleep that lowers the fan's noise all the way down to 20 decibels. When you need quick cooling power, the Dreo's 28 feet per second high-velocity power gives instant relief. Plus, the included remote control means you don't have to get up to change the settings.

If you've been down the ice cream aisle lately, you know the good stuff is getting spendy. Take matters into your own hands this summer thanks to the Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker which is on sale for only $54.10 during Prime Day, marked down from the normal price of $89.99.
Make 1.5 quarts of your favorite flavor of ice cream, sorbet, frozen yogurt, or even gelato with the Cuisinart. Fair warning though, I made a batch for a family barbecue months ago, and now I'm required to bring ice cream to every family gathering. But as a bonus, that means I get to provide a dessert without turning my oven on to bake a cake.

When the weather is too hot, sleep is one of the hardest elements to handle. Tossing and turning while feeling too warm is frustrating and uncomfortable. Each summer, I turn to my Brooklinen Percale sheets which are made with breathable cotton. These sheets have a 270 thread count, meaning they don't trap hot air against the skin. Plus, percale feels crisp and light.
As a special treat for Prime members, the queen-size Brooklinen sheet set in the abyss colorway is on sale for just $127.36 with the on-page coupon during Prime Day.

Amazon has a true summer treat on offer during the second day of the sale with exceptional Yeti deals. It's hard to find a Yeti deal that feels like you're saving more than $20 or so but Prime Day is turning out to be a major exception. The Yeti Hopper M30 Portable Soft Cooler in navy is discounted all the way down to $227.50, which is a huge $122.50 off the normal price of $350.
The Yeti M30 Hopper is loaded with trustworthy Yeti features like a leakproof liner and comfortable shoulder straps that make it ideal for all kinds of adventures, from a quick trip to the local pool or a weekend at the campground. The M30 can hold up to 42 cans without ice, so capacity is no issue with this cooler.
We don't expect this rare deal to last long, so hop to it if you're interested.

The World Cup’s latest viral trend is surprisingly wholesome
The FIFA World Cup has plenty of ways to make a country famous when they succeed: a goal for the ages, a goalkeeping masterclass, or a star player turning into a meme.
But in 2026, with the world the way it is, even losing teams can go viral simply by being nice — cleaning up their locker room, bringing a box of desserts, or leaving a thank-you note. Call it the Ted Lasso World Cup.
Case in point: Jordan’s run at their first World Cup ended June 22 with a 2-1 loss to Algeria. But the team left more than their tournament hopes behind. A video posted by FIFA shows Jordan’s dressing room spotless, with a thank-you note, gifts, and Jordanian sweets left out for the stadium staff.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.The team was making its World Cup debut, and after losses to Austria and Algeria, its knockout hopes were gone. Still, they took the time to wish the U.S. a warm goodbye.
In the message, Jordan thanked everyone involved for a "truly unforgettable one," and praised the “dedication, professionalism and warm hospitality” it had received.
Winners can go viral for post-game courtesy too. After their 4-0 win over Tunisia in Mexico on June 20, team Japan left its locker room spotless, along with a thank-you message.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Japanese fans, meanwhile, took thoughtfulness to the next level. After their 2-2 draw with the Netherlands in Texas on June 14, social media was full of videos featuring Japanese fans staying behind to pick up litter — gathering cups, wrappers, and trash into blue plastic bags before taking them away.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Japan would clearly be the team to beat in any World Cup of sweetness. Fans have been cleaning stadiums for years, going back to Japan’s first World Cup appearance in 1998. At the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, fans cleaned their section after Japan beat the mighty Germany. Some even came to tidy up after the tournament opener between Qatar and Ecuador, despite Japan not even being on the field.
The reason is expressed in a popular Japanese proverb “tatsu tori ato wo nigosazu,” which roughly translates to “birds leaves nothing behind them.” (Or as we say on the hiking trail, "leave no trace.") At this World Cup, the gesture even got an assist from New York Giants quarterback Jameis Winston, who was seen helping clean in a blue Japan shirt with his name on the back.
Meanwhile in Los Angeles, the Iranian team extended its gratitude — despite being allegedly forced to leave the U.S. in a hurry after its games and return to base camp across the border in Tijuana, Mexico. Some Iranian support staff and officials haven't been able to enter at all.
Still, following a 0-0 draw with Belgium at SoFi stadium, with goalkeeper Alireza Beiranvand making seven spectacular saves, Iran wrote a note thanking LA for its hospitality, and Iranian fans for giving their “heart, voice and soul” during the team’s first two matches.
“We came to Los Angeles with pride, competed with honor, and leave with dignity,” the note read.
This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.Now that we know such gestures can go as viral online as a great goal, will more teams bring their politeness A-game to the 2030 World Cup — which will, for the first time, be held on multiple continents at once?
As Ted Lasso might say: Believe.
