The SpaceX-Tesla merger is increasingly sounding more like a when than an if. Bloomberg reports that the estimated $3.5 trillion tie-up could come as soon as December, but could also slip to early 2027: > The companies have also discussed a scenario in which an announcement slips into early 2027, said the people, who asked to not be identified because the discussions are private. Their boards and advisers are hammering out the terms of the tie-up and governance structure of the combined entity, among other matters, the people said.
