Elon Musk has finally spoken his heart out: he fully supports the historic merger between SpaceX and Tesla. These two companies are his most valuable assets, and this move will also set a record for the largest merger and acquisition deal in history. Next, a race to grab time officially kicks off. People familiar with the matter revealed that all parties are currently pushing to announce the deal in the first half of 2027 in order to complete the settlement during the current administration's term. The move will merge two companies with a total market capitalization of about 3.7 trillion US dollars into one. At the same time, it will also consolidate Musk's corporate power before the political and financial environment that may become less relaxed in the future arrives. The midterm elections are less than two weeks away. If the Democratic Party takes control of any house of Congress, Musk and his companies may face investigation, and at the same time weaken the power of the president, who is about to enter the “lame duck.” Meanwhile, the continued sell-off in chipmaker and AI stocks could erode the investor support needed to complete this bold deal. Bill Birmingham, head of research at REX Financial, said: “Musk and his advisors certainly want to take advantage of the current time window. This timing is both favorable and critical.” Both SpaceX and Tesla did not respond to requests for comment in response to the target time of the merger announcement.
