For Musk, who has called Bezos’ company “Sue Origin,” this fight is personal and years in the making.

Tesla stock prices have soared since news of Trump’s victory.

Musk and Bezos — the richest and third-richest men in the world, who are both fixated on getting humanity off of it — have had a simmering rivalry for close to two decades now. But with Bezos’s Blue Origin and Musk’s SpaceX fighting for lucrative NASA contracts, the stakes have never been higher.

Jeff Bezos has shot down Elon Musk's claim that Bezos told "everyone" Trump would lose the election and they should sell off their SpaceX and Tesla stock.
