Today on Forbes, Larry Ellison, Jack Dorsey, the Saudi Prince, and other unexpected winners from the SpaceX IPO.
2
SpaceX priced its IPO at $135 per share Thursday, implying a $1.8 trillion market cap for the company.
3
That boosted Musk's net worth by $188 billion to an estimated $982 billion, according to Forbes' calculations.
4
After what was a successful IPO Friday, SpaceX shares landed at just over $161 at market close that day.
5
That made Elon Musk the first trillionaire in world history, worth $1.1 trillion, according to Forbes' Real-Time Billionaires List,
6
as of Friday at 4.30 p.m.
7
Eastern Time.
8
Musk, who serves as chairman, CEO, and chief technical officer of SpaceX,
9
owns 4.8 billion shares of the Rocketmaker .
10
He has another 350 million stock options with an exercise price of $8.40 per share ,
11
giving him a 38% stake in the company .
12
Forbes has been valuing Musk's estimated 40% stake before dilution from the public offering at around $500 billion,
13
based on the $1.25 trillion valuation of SpaceX's merger with Musk's artificial intelligence and social media company XAI in February.
14
XAI previously merged with X, formerly Twitter, in March 2025.
15
Musk also owns just over 10% of the $1.5 trillion market cap Tesla,
16
worth $165 billion, plus options to acquire another nearly 8% stake, worth $114 billion.
17
Not included in Forbes' estimate of Musk's net worth is performance-based restricted shares
18
that could boost his stakes in SpaceX and Tesla to 47% and 29%,
19
respectively, before taxes and the cost of unlocking the restricted shares.
20
To earn all that stock, Musk will have to achieve lofty goals like growing SpaceX and Tesla's market caps to $7.5 trillion and $8.5 trillion,
21
respectively, and establishing a permanent human colony on Mars with at least 1 million inhabitants.
22
Musk is by far the biggest winner, but he isn't the only person whose fortunes soared into orbit thanks to SpaceX.
23
Others include a Saudi prince, Twitter's co-founder, and several SpaceX executives and board members.
24
The newest member of the 3-comma club is SpaceX's longtime chief financial officer,
25
Brett Johnson, who as of Friday morning is worth an estimated $1.2 billion,
26
thanks to his .07% stake in the rocket maker, including options.
27
The accountant joins PayPal co-founder, venture capitalist, and longtime SpaceX investor
28
and board member Luke Nosek as one of two new billionaires revealed since the rocket maker filed its IPO prospectus.
29
Nosek is now worth at least $3.4 billion, based on his SpaceX stake of at least 0.19%.
30
Also listed in the prospectus is the rocket maker's longtime president and chief operating officer Gwynne Shotwell, who was revealed to own just 0.1% of the company,
31
lower than Forbes' initial 0.27% estimate.
32
Still, Shotwell, the firm's 11th employee, is doing just fine, with a net worth of $1.7 billion.
33
A number of SpaceX's biggest winners were either Twitter or XAI investors,
34
including Prince Al-Walid bin Talal al-Saoud of Saudi Arabia and President Trump's Middle East envoy Stephen Whitcoff,
35
who both became SpaceX investors in February
36
when Musk merged his rocket maker with his artificial intelligence
37
and social media business XAI Holdings in a deal that valued the combined company at $1.25 trillion.
38
The February transaction, which valued SpaceX at $1 trillion and XAI Holdings at $250 billion,
39
less than a year after Musk created XAI Holdings in March
40
2025 by combining his artificial intelligence startup XAI with his social media company X,
41
formerly Twitter, in a $113 billion merger that some critics characterized as a bailout of the latter company.
42
That's because that deal valued X at $33 billion,
43
which was almost exactly what Musk and minority investors like Prince Al-Walid and Whitcoff paid for the company, excluding debt financing, in 2022.
44
Investor Fidelity, meanwhile, had X valued at just under $10 billion at the end of 2024.
45
Other big SpaceX IPO winners include high-profile venture capital, hedge fund, and private equity billionaires whose investment firms bet on SpaceX long ago.
46
That includes Musk's close friend and SpaceX director,
47
Antonio Gracias, whose Valor Equity Partners owns a 3.7% stake worth $68 billion as of Friday morning.
48
Another winner is Oracle's co-founder, chairman, and chief technology officer Larry Ellison, who invested $1 billion in Musk's Twitter takeover in October 2022,
49
after concluding his nearly four-year term as a director of Musk's electric vehicle maker Tesla two months earlier.
50
Forbes estimates that Ellison still owns Tesla shares worth more than $14 billion.
51
He owns an estimated 0.15% stake of SpaceX, worth an estimated $2.7 billion as of Friday morning.
52
Jack Dorsey is another winner.
53
He co-founded Twitter in 2006 and was the company's CEO until 2008, when he left to co-found payments company Block,
54
formerly known as Square, a year later.
55
He returned as Twitter's CEO in 2015 and served in that role for another six years before resigning for good in 2021.
56
Dorsey stepped down from Twitter's board in May 2022
57
but rolled forward his nearly $1 billion stake in the company when Musk took it private five months later.
58
His estimated SpaceX stake is 0.14%, worth an estimated $2.6 billion.

نصائح للممارسة

لتحسين مهارات النطق لديك، يمكنك استخدام طريقة التظليل في الإنجليزية كأسلوب تعليمي فعال. استمع إلى سرعة الحديث في الفيديو وابدأ بتقليد الشخص المتحدث في نفس الوقت، مع التركيز على نطق الكلمات والنبرة. إليك بعض النصائح الخاصة بهذه الطريقة:

  • ابدأ بمقاطع صغيرة: تدرج في مقاطع الفيديو، واستمع إلى جملة واحدة في كل مرة.
  • كرر بصوت عالٍ: استخدم shadowing site أو أدوات التظليل مثل shadowspeaks لمساعدتك على التعامل مع السرعة والنغمة.
  • راقب الفم: حاول رؤية كيفية تحرك شفاه المتحدث وأخذ ملاحظات حول كيفية نطق الحروف.
  • قم بتسجيل نفسك: استمع إلى أدائك وقارنه بالمتحدث الأصلي، سيساعدك ذلك في اكتشاف مناطق التحسين.
  • كن صبورًا: تحسين النطق باللغة الإنجليزية يستغرق وقتًا، لذا استمر في الممارسة بانتظام.

من خلال هذه التقنيات، ستجد أنك قادر على تحسين القدرة على التحدث بوضوح وثقة في اللغة الإنجليزية.

ما هي تقنية التظليل الصوتي؟

التظليل الصوتي (Shadowing) تقنية تعلم لغة مدعومة علمياً، طُورت أصلاً لتدريب المترجمين الفوريين المحترفين. الطريقة بسيطة لكنها قوية: تستمع لصوت إنجليزي أصلي وتكرره فوراً بصوت عالٍ — كظل يتبع المتحدث بتأخير 1-2 ثانية. تُظهر الأبحاث تحسناً كبيراً في دقة النطق والتنغيم والإيقاع وربط الأصوات والاستماع والطلاقة.
