🚨BREAKING: Elon Musk CONFIRMS Tesla TSLA and SpaceX SPCX are exploring a MERGER. Both boards have formed special committees of independent directors at shareholders' request, with Musk recused as a "conflicted party." "Do I think it would be a good idea? Yes, but at the end of the day, the shareholders have to be supportive of this," Musk said. He added there is "a lot of merit to combining the companies," saying "we are pretty much in the superintelligence singularity." Any deal needs approval from 50% of ALL Tesla shares, and SPCX is up nearly 7% after hours.
