Amid his explosive public feud with US President Donald Trump, Elon Musk predicted that the US would enter a recession in the second half of 2025 due to Trump’s newly proposed tariffs. Responding to a post on X that called tariffs “super stupid,” Musk said, "The Trump tariffs will cause a recession in the second half of this year". The tensions between the two escalated after Musk slammed Trump’s GOP tax plan and dubbed it the ‘Big Beautiful Bill’ disastrous. The tech mogul, who once backed Trump with millions during his campaign, now calls him “ungrateful” and has floated the idea of a third political party. Musk also claimed Trump’s name appeared in the Epstein files, alleging that’s why the documents remain sealed. As their feud deepened, Musk’s net worth took a sharp blow, with Tesla stock plunging 14% in a single day. Elon Musk Net Worth Takes a Massive Hit As Tesla Stock Drops Sharply Amid His Dispute With Donald Trump, Billionaire Loses USD 34 Billion in One of His Worst Wealth Losses Ever.
