Why It Matters
Musk called the plan a “good idea” in October. It would bring its ambitions in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, electric vehicles and aerospace under one roof. Special committees of independent directors were formed to examine a possible merger because Musk himself had a conflict of interest.
According to a media report, the two companies SpaceX and Tesla, led by billionaire Elon Musk, could announce their merger in December.

SpaceX and Tesla were not immediately available for comment on the report on Thursday.
Musk said in October that special committees had been formed to examine a possible merger. Since he himself has a conflict of interest, he cannot take part in the discussions between the committees consisting of independent directors.
The committees were set up at the request of the shareholders, who ultimately have to approve a deal. However, it is premature to assume a merger. The committees have not yet agreed on the terms of a transaction and may never do so.
