Yes, good morning Ciara.
Absolute mania is the only way to describe it and it's global.
We know that Elon Musk has a very enthusiastic, almost cultish following from a lot of people in the US who like his Tesla cars for starters.
But this has moved up another notch again.
As you say, about 25% of these shares are going to be allocated to what they call ordinary retail investors.
So that's
me and you and people sitting at their computers who trade just kind of casually if they have some extra money.
Those people are going to be bundled into this and there's obviously a lot of enthusiasm.
They're not doing it because they're being forced, those retail investors, but they're very enthusiastic about Elon Musk.
But what he's selling, Ciara, is two particular things.
Data centres that are out in outer space.
orbiting the Earth.
So that's one particular business line that he's hoping can come true in the next few decades.
And the second one is a reusable rocket called the Starship, the SpaceX Starship.
So this will be a rocket that will go off like an aircraft, a commercial aircraft will go around space delivering things possibly to Mars and possibly launching satellites as well, very heavy ones.
And that will be reusable and obviously the people will pay to get use of that and it'll generate a lot of revenue as well.
So these are the two things he's selling to these investors.
They're not going to pay off immediately.
Some people say they may never pay off.
But at the moment the company is loss making.
