Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Elon Musk’s net worth fell $79.7 billion as shares of Tesla and SpaceX declined while other Big Tech stocks rallied, Fortune reported. Investors are concerned that Musk and his companies will face increased scrutiny from the new Congress, according to the article. The drop underscores how politically exposed founders can lag a broader tech rally even when sector sentiment is strong. What to watch next is whether the new Congress pursues hearings, investigations or legislative action touching Tesla and SpaceX.
