SpaceX has just told investors that nobody can sack Elon Musk except Elon Musk himself. The company's IPO filing reveals Musk can only be removed as CEO and chairman by a vote of Class B shareholders, super-voting shares with 10 votes each that he will control after listing. The arrangement gives Musk 79% of voting power despite owning 42% of SpaceX equity, with the IPO targeting a record $1.75 trillion valuation.
