Brian Wang There are several reason why the Tesla and SpaceX merger will not happen and definitely not this year. It would be the largest merger deal involving a global public company ever. It would be the largest by several times. This makes it risky and complex. It will involve EU approval and if the EU rejected the Nvidia purchase of ARM, then they will reject any Tesla and SpaceX merger. Most of the benefits of a merger can be obtained with regional joint venture. SpaceX and Tesla could set up a US only joint venture that would only need US approval.
