SpaceX is not a publicly listed company, so ordinary investors have so far found it difficult to invest in it directly.
The speculation about a merger is rooted in the various businesses led by Musk. SpaceX handles rockets and satellite internet. Tesla operates in electric vehicles, autonomous driving, and robotics. If the two companies became one, the vision would be to bring space, artificial intelligence, robotics, and electric vehicles under one roof.

Regulatory issues also remain. If the two companies merge, U.S. authorities could examine whether the deal harms competition. Bringing rocket, satellite internet, electric vehicle, and artificial intelligence businesses under one company could broaden the scope of the review.
The merger is not currently a confirmed deal. It is at the stage where the possibility is being discussed as SpaceX’s IPO plans intersect with Musk’s control structure. Questions being raised include whether Tesla shareholders would gain exposure to SpaceX’s growth or take on new costs.
