Tesla and SpaceX have formed a special committee to explore a merger that would create the largest equity in the world by market cap, according to Bitcoin Magazine. The proposed combination is being examined for its potential to earn a higher index weighting and capture more passive flows than either firm alone.
Passive Flow 'Hack'
In a clip, Sean Hagan described the deal as a “no brainer” on first principles, explaining that a combined company would earn a higher index weighting and capture more passive flows than either firm alone. He connected the discussion to the MSCI decision on Strategy and why passive flows matter for Bitcoin treasury companies.
S&P 500 Inclusion Question
The hosts also raised the question of whether the merger could serve as a workaround for SpaceX’s inclusion in the S&P 500. The segment did not provide further details on the committee’s findings or a timeline for any decision.
