Elon Musk: Raumfahrtkonzern SpaceX meldet Milliardengewinn – Tesla-Übernahme rückt näher

San Francisco saw SpaceX's CEO Elon Musk face off with a Deutsche Bank analyst during their latest quarterly conference. The analyst inquired about the possibility of a merger between SpaceX and Tesla, a topic that has been heavily debated since the rocket company's stock market debut. Musk, a billionaire and major shareholder in both companies, admitted that he was navigating a "minefield" due to the conflicting interests involved.

Musk confirmed that both SpaceX and Tesla had formed special committees to discuss the idea, but these committees had not yet agreed on the terms of a potential transaction. Musk himself does not belong to these committees. He expressed positivity about the idea, citing various advantages such as collaboration on chip design, new robotics, and artificial intelligence (AI).
