Elon Musk has publicly endorsed a combination of SpaceX and Tesla, his two most valuable companies, in what would be the biggest corporate transaction ever attempted. There's a push to announce a deal by the first half of 2027, so that it closes during the current administration, according to people familiar with the matter, with the combined market value of the companies being around $3.7 trillion. Musk's endorsement comes at a moment of extraordinary influence for him, having repaired his relationship with President Donald Trump and tapped into fervent investor enthusiasm, but this advantage is not guaranteed to last.
