Tesla-SpaceX Merger Buzz
Amid the IPO, there's also buzz around a merger between Tesla Inc. and SpaceX.
While there has been no official information around a merger between the two companies, Gary Black, the managing director of The Future Fund LLC, has warned against such a move.
Black Raises Dilution Concerns
Black said that the deal could see a "20-25% reduction" in the value of the EV giant's stock "if TSLA with a 100x EV/EBITDA and $1.5T market cap buys SpaceX with a 200x EV/EBITDA and $1.5T market cap."
