#045: Merger – SpaceX and xAI?
More massive news surrounding the upcoming SpaceX IPO, including a potential merger with xAI before the deal.
We also heard news about Elon considering a merger with Tesla, and accelerated timing (June), though I’m skeptical since they may not have figured out the corporate components yet!.
Flat debuts from York Space Systems (YSS), Ethos Life Insurance (LIFE), and Picpay Holdings (PICS) warn of the coming wave of mediocre IPOs.
In IPO Radar news, OpenAI is raising $100 billion and pushing toward a Q4 2026 IPO, Automation Anywhere has found a shortcut to the public markets, and MrBeast highlights 5 IPO Radar companies.
