Temporary? Unlikely in my opinion! Why? We are in the AI age and data centres are Larry's forte! I mean your OpenAI and Co NEED them like fresh air and with the advancement in that space you can't imagine the multi billion dollar deals he will be signing.

Let's not forget that Larry is in Trump's good books. So do the math!
Do you think spaceX is a joke my bro?
Do you know how many individuals are getting starlink ?
Do you know how much NASA pays Elon to his starship?

I think he's also built an app like Uber where you order for robot drivers
And there's grok

I don't believe you saw anywhere where I joked about SpaceX and all other Elons investments.

I only stated the obvious from the prevailing realities which is that
1. We are in the AI age and every age throws up it's own set of millionaires/billionaires
2. Elon isn't in the good books of Trump at the moment and no matter how you dice it, most of these billionaires enjoy some sort of government patronage!
3. It is not just investments, but profitability! Twitter for example since his acquisition has remained unprofitable! His EV has seen a decline in market share and profits.
4. His politics hurt his business!

It's not my fault if you're not up to date on current and historical news.

Any informed person in the info tech space who knows whatsup from the late 1990s especially during the heydays of the Windows operating systems dominance is aware of Larry Ellison's intense dislike and envy of Bill Gates.

Bill Gates prevented him from becoming number 1 for about 20 years, he always came second to Bill Gates on all rankings no matter which body did the ranking.

Omoawoke:
Don’t be fooled, it’s all valuation not real cash
Money is not even real anymore for these guys at this stage

Money is only real to people in need
Are you aware that these guys use their stock portfolio as collateral to borrow loans for real cash to invest, avoid or minimize taxes while using the dividends from the stock to settle debts?

I believe Bill get would have remained there if he wanted
He was on top for a whole 10 years until he gave almost 99% of his wealth to charity
To his children through foundation to avoid inheritance tax and any potential mismanagement from his children.

Show me one Nigerian billionaire that made his billions through invention in Nigeria likes of dangote will buy Dollar at rate of 380naira while other business people are buying at rate of 700 naira during buhari's terms tomorrow they will call him a billionaire,just like Tinubu is powering his Yoruba people now
According to you, Dangote will wait for dieing minutes to buy forex and buy equipment needed for a $20 billion refinery when the derivative market is available with futures, forwards, Buy Options etc to short and buy forex ahead?
Nigerians need financial education to liberate themselves and free themselves form politicians using to their brains get into power.
