Tesla and SpaceX both reported aggressive spending strategies this summer, aiming to invest heavily now and profit later. Tesla's revenue grew 25.5% but its operating margin is thin, while SpaceX saw 92% revenue growth driven by AI and Starlink expansion but ended with a net loss. A simultaneous market selloff would hurt Musk's wealth from both companies, as Tesla's earnings depend partly on SpaceX's valuation, and Tesla plans significant borrowing in 2026. SpaceX appears financially stronger with large cash reserves and long-term debt maturity, but both face risks ahead. Investors should watch Tesla's Q3 deliveries and SpaceX's revenue targets and satellite launches for signs of progress.
Tesla shares are trading at USD 352.04 with a slight decline of 0.23% on Pluang. SpaceX is priced at USD 149.62, showing a modest gain of 0.23% as of Sep 30, 2026 20:02 WIB. This market activity highlights mixed investor sentiment towards both companies amid their financial strategies and growth prospects.
