Elon Musk's net worth increased by $19 billion in one day, making him the world's richest person once again. The reason? Tesla officially launched its long-awaited robotaxi service in Austin, Texas. Tesla has started its autonomous taxi service on Sunday with a fixed rate of $4.20 per trip. Although each trip still involves a safety operator, the announcement alone has caused a frenzy among investors - Tesla's stock rose by 8%, reaching an intraday high of 11%. As a result, Musk's net worth increased to $385 billion, putting him far ahead of Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos. Musk called the launch 'the culmination of a decade of hard work,' praising the AI and Tesla chip development teams. Despite the market enthusiasm, some analysts are calling for caution. UBS raised its price target for Tesla, but still maintained a 'sell' rating, warning that much of the optimism about robottaxis may already be priced in. Experts also point out several technical and logistical issues, such as sensor limitations, complex road scenarios, and inadequate infrastructure.
