Elon Musk's space and artificial intelligence company saw a $400 billion sell-off on Monday, tanking 16%, following drops of 3.6% and 5% the previous two days of trading.

The company announced on Monday a senior unsecured notes offering and disclosed that it had $100.8 billion in cash and cash equivalents on hand as of June 19.
That same day, SpaceX also revealed it has signed a major computing power agreement with open-source AI startup Reflection, providing the company with access to Musk's Colossus infrastructure.
SpaceX's stock surged after its blockbuster debut, with shares rallying more than 50% on their offering price, as investors scrambled to buy into Musk's lofty ambitions for the company.
