Elon Musk is now worth $380.1 billion as of March 2025, according to a new report. In December 2024, Bloomberg broke the news that in a “historic first,” Musk’s net worth has surpassed $400 billion and is nearing half a trillion. However, fluctuations due to stock prices and other financial activities have costed Musk an estimated $20 billion drop since the end of 2024.
The milestone for the “world’s richest individual” follows an insider share sale reported to value his rocket and satellite company SpaceX at about $350 billion, citing an internal email.
That’s a significant increase from the projected valuation of approximately $255 billion in November 2024, and nearly double its valuation in 2023.
The insider share sale of Musk’s privately owned SpaceX instantly increased his net worth by around $50 billion, bringing it to a total of $439.2 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

This is a significant bounce back after Musk nearly lost $200 billion dollars in his net worth after Tesla Inc.’s stock tanked in 2021. Additionally, Musk’s involvement with X, formerly Twitter, and his focus on other ventures like SpaceX has impacted investor confidence positively. Despite the losses, Musk remained one of the wealthiest individuals in the world with a net worth still exceeding $200 billion.
His wealth has been bolstered by his leadership of various successful ventures, including Tesla, which has seen its stock prices soar over the years. Musk’s ventures in electric vehicles, space exploration, and artificial intelligence continue to propel his financial success, despite volatility in some markets.
