Elon Musk has stepped forward to reject recent media claims suggesting SpaceX hit an $800 billion valuation. The tech billionaire's quick denial comes amid growing speculation about private valuations in the aerospace sector. Given Musk's track record of moving markets with his statements—especially in crypto circles—his pushback on these numbers is drawing attention beyond just space enthusiasts. Whether this affects sentiment around his other ventures remains to be seen, but one thing's clear: when Musk speaks, markets listen. The actual valuation? Still anyone's guess until official numbers surface.
