This is the definition of reshoring manufacturing to the US.
Tesla has just shared the 4K version of the Cybercab's unboxed manufacturing process from last week's launch event.
The line is designed so that one Cybercab can roll off the production line every 10 seconds, with a long term goal of ~5 seconds.

🚨 The index trap?
Passive ETF investors are forced to buy high. With Alphabet’s 80B raise and the massive SpaceX (SPCX) IPO, index trackers like QQQ and DIA must mechanically buy billions in shares at peak valuations - even if they are overvalued. Are you diversified, or just buying the top? #Investing #Stocks #QQQ #PassiveInvesting $SPCX $GOOG

Is this a financial hallucination? @elonmusk was not even in the world’s top ten richest people until 2020. Now he is the world’s first trillionaire.
It is absurd, but not fake.
This was not some slow, stately climb through the billionaire league table. Musk crashed into the top ten during Covid, rode the Tesla mania, fell back when markets turned, then launched into another universe as SpaceX was marked at a much higher valuation.
As others have pointed out to me, this wasn't luck. This was 24 years of SpaceX history being priced in by public markets, helped a bit by the addition of an AI business.
That is the story in this animation. These are shares, private valuations, collateral, market mood and a huge wager on the future, all compressed into one ridiculous number: $1.3 trillion as of today.
Once the financial system agrees to treat paper wealth as real, it becomes real enough. It can be borrowed against. It can be pledged. It can buy control, influence and time. It can decide which companies get funded, which technologies get built and which version of the future attracts capital.
That is the mad part. Musk’s fortune is both real and ridiculous at the same time.
Real, because markets, banks and investors have endorsed it.
Ridiculous, because a large part of it can move violently when sentiment changes, a rocket explodes, Tesla rerates, or investors decide the future is worth a different price.
This feels like a chart about modern wealth becoming stranger, faster and more detached from anything most people would recognise as money.
What do you think?
