Correction: the IPO minted two new billionaires, not 3.

IPO Backed By Former Texas Governor, Energy Secretary Mints Three Billionaires Fermi America’s IPO on Wednesday catapulted the fortunes of multiple investors—including Rick Perry’s son and the son of a former GOP congressman—into the ten figures.

Former energy secretary Rick Perry's data center real estate firm, Fermi, went public today. The stock jumped 55%, valuing it at $19 billion and minting 3 new billionaires--despite the firm having $0 in revenue.

1/ Shares in Moderna and BioNTech have imploded since their 2021 peaks, shaving billions of dollars from their founders’ fortunes. Growing anti-vax hysteria and RFK Jr.’s FDA will likely make the situation even worse.
