It's all a bit of a mess with the consolidation of multiple businesses.

> SpaceX is a pretty important company not just for "the market" but also for many other things (see Russia/Ukraine war)

Starlink, which was rolled in to SpaceX, is/was profitable and it is a factor in Ukraine.

The rocket division is not profitable, but I sense that there might be a path to a profitably operating business.

As for the X/xAI piece, who knows? Long-term it seems like a moon-shot. I appreciate the irony that it's in the wrong division.
