Cathie Wood says the Musk-Trump feud reveals how much Musk's companies rely on the government
Ark Invest's Cathie Wood has weighed in on the public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Wood said the feud reveals how much Musk's companies rely on the US government. Trump said Saturday he had no desire to fix his relationship with the Tesla CEO. The public feud between Elon Musk and President Donald Trump has shown investors just how much control the US government has over Musk's companies, Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood says. "I think the way this is evolving is Elon, Tesla, and investors are beginning to understand more and more just how much the government has control here," Wood said in a video posted to the company's YouTube channel on Friday. Many of Musk's companies have key links to the government and have received billions of dollars in federal loans, contracts, tax credits, and subsidies over the years. "Elon is involved in companies that are depending on the government," Wood said, pointing to Tesla, SpaceX, and Neuralink as examples. SpaceX's COO, Gwynne Shotwell, said last year that the company has $22 billion worth of federal contracts. Neuralink, Musk's brain chip company, is subject to FDA regulation, and a less friendly regulatory environment could impact Tesla's robotaxi rollout plans. Tesla stock fell more than 14% on Thursday after Musk and Trump became locked in a series of increasingly bitter clashes. The feud appeared to begin, at least publicly, on Tuesday, after Musk criticized Trump's "One Big Beautiful Bill." He called it a "disgusting abomination" and said it would increase the national budget deficit. Tensions rose fast between the once-close allies on Thursday. Trump threatened to cut Musk's government contracts and Musk said SpaceX would immediately begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft — which returned stranded NASA astronauts Suni Williams and Butch Wilmore from the International Space Station in March. Musk later retracted that threat, which Wood said was a sign he was "beginning to walk this back." Wood said the rift with Trump could, in part, be Musk's attempt to further decouple himself from the Trump administration. Musk announced in April that he would be stepping back from his government work. "One of the hypotheses out there is that what has happened was partly — not entirely — orchestrated," Wood said. "Clearly, there has been some brand damage to Tesla, which he readily admits, and I think he's trying to disengage from the government and being associated with one party or the other." Moving forward, Wood said neither Trump nor Musk needed to get "bogged down" with a fight and that she believed both would eventually heed that reasoning. She also appeared to be confident that Musk could make the situation work for him. She said Musk "works really well under pressure" and that "he creates a lot of that chaos and pressure himself." Trump, however, signaled Saturday that he had no desire to fix his relationship with the SpaceX CEO anytime soon. "I have no intention of speaking to him," Trump told NBC News. "I think it's a very bad thing, because he's very disrespectful. You could not disrespect the office of the President," he added. Vice President JD Vance struck a somewhat friendlier tone when asked about the possibility of reconciliation during a Thursday interview with podcaster Theo Von. Vance said that while he thought it was a "huge mistake" for Musk to "go after the president," he hoped Musk "figures it out" and "comes back into the fold."

The firms have large stakes in coal producers and profited when energy prices soared, according to the suit, which claims the firms used environmental goals as cover.

Musk Says DOGE Hasn't Been as Effective as He Wanted — Are More Cuts Coming?
Elon Musk said his high-profile effort to cut government waste with the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has made 'some progress but not enough.' The tempered assessment comes amid reported tensions between Musk and President Donald Trump, whose administration launched the initiative. Although Musk announced his intention to step down from leadership of DOGE, the department will continue in its attempt to cut unnecessary spending by the federal government. Be Aware: Find Out: Musk said DOGE hasn't been as effective as he wanted. So, are more cuts coming? Musk envisioned DOGE as a transformative force to streamline federal operations. His ambitious plan aimed to eliminate wasteful spending, reduce bureaucracy and modernize government technology, with the ultimate goal of saving up to $2 trillion in taxpayer money. In his first 100 days leading DOGE, Musk claimed the team saved $1.6 billion a day, ABC News reported. However, he admitted the results fall short of his trillion-dollar goal. He blamed entrenched interests and bureaucracy, calling the reform process 'like turning a fleet of supertankers.' Specifically, Musk emphasized that achieving the revised goal of $1 trillion in federal spending cuts would depend on 'how much pain is the cabinet and Congress willing to take.' 'It can be done,' Musk told reporters. 'But it requires dealing with a lot of complaints.' Read Next: While Musk said DOGE saved $160 billion by cutting waste, an analysis cited by CBS News estimated the initiative could ultimately cost taxpayers $135 billion this fiscal year. The report, attributed to the nonpartisan Partnership for Public Service, outlined expenses tied to mismanaged staff cuts, lost productivity and administrative disruptions. In addition, some experts said the deeper issue was the assumption that government should operate like a business. They said that applying corporate strategies to public systems could create more disruption than efficiency. 'Running a government isn't like running a business,' said George Carrillo, co-founder and CEO of the Hispanic Construction Council. Carrillo previously served as the Director of Social Determinants of Health for the state of Oregon. 'It's not about moving fast to sell products or meet quarterly goals,' Carrillo said. 'Instead, it's a slower, more thoughtful process, where every decision impacts real people's lives.' Despite mixed results, the Trump administration is doubling down on DOGE's mission. The White House has formally requested that Congress rescind $9.4 billion in previously approved spending, targeting programs flagged by DOGE. If approved, the move would cement many of DOGE's proposed cuts and freezes, with Trump aides claiming the reductions focus on programs promoting liberal ideologies. 'This rescissions package reflects many of DOGE's findings and is one of the many legislative tools Republicans are using to restore fiscal sanity,' House Speaker Mike Johnson told reporters, as reported by AP News. Johnson pledged the House would bring the package to the floor 'as quickly as possible.' Although Musk has formally stepped down from his leadership role at DOGE, he continues to advise the department behind the scenes. His influence still looms large over the initiative's direction, with Johnson citing his original vision when defending new rounds of cuts. Whether his continued involvement will help DOGE regain momentum or further politicize its mission remains to be seen. Still, some policy experts said that Musk's expectations may clash with the realities of public governance. 'From healthcare programs to safety nets, government work is layered with legal checks and balances designed to avoid harm, and Musk might be underestimating how much that complexity slows down big changes,' Carrillo said. 'Without fully understanding the governance structure, he likely views DOGE's progress as sluggish when, in reality, it reflects the careful deliberation necessary to ensure fairness and accuracy.' As Congress weighs the $9.4 billion rescissions package and potential expansions to DOGE, the coming months will test whether the initiative can sustain momentum without Musk at the helm. 'There could be longer delays or disruptions in receiving services like unemployment benefits, tax refunds or healthcare support, all because restructuring slows processes down before any improvements can take hold,' Carrillo said. 'Beyond that, large-scale changes also take a long time to bear fruit, so even with the best intentions, consumers and workers should expect a period where things might feel worse before they get better.'
