An EV Business Revival and Potential SpaceX Merger: Is Tesla Stock a Buy?

Tesla stock is viewed as a buy opportunity despite lukewarm Q3 results, with the core EV business showing signs of recovery driven by strong Full Self-Driving adoption (1.7M paid customers). Key growth catalysts include the upcoming Cybercab robotaxi launch, Tesla Semi truck production ramping to 5M annually by 2030, and Optimus humanoid robot commercialization expected by end of 2027. A potential merger with SpaceX could provide additional upside, though it requires 50% shareholder approval.
