What stands out
Elon Musk said SpaceX and Tesla boards have formed independent special committees to review a possible merger, and he confirmed he is recused as a conflicted party while warning that a deal is not a sure thing. SpaceX’s Super Intelligence unit reported $7.6B in the quarter, up 830 percent and now larger than Starlink. Anthropic’s draft prospectus shows $16.3B of revenue in the first half and very large noncancelable cloud commitments. Ken Griffin called artificial intelligence a likely bubble, while Netflix guided to another quarter of slowing subscriber growth and United trimmed its fuel outlook.
