Shares in Elon Musk’s Tesla (TSLA) are rising to start the week following the CEO’s announcement this weekend of further intertwining his companies. Tesla stock is up 7.5% since the end of last week. Over the weekend, CEO Musk said Tesla should be able to invest in his xAI (XAAI.PVT) startup, pending a shareholder vote. Should the two Musk-founded companies further intertwine, the companies could both receive a boost in investor interest.

It’s been revealed that Musk’s SpaceX has agreed to invest $2 billion in his artificial-intelligence company xAI. Musk said in a later post to X that Tesla should not merge with xAI, although the two companies currently work together on various fronts. Wall Street analysts, including Wedbush’s Dan Ives, suggested a Tesla and xAI tie-up could enhance Tesla’s artificial intelligence presence and indirectly compensate Musk, whose Tesla pay package has been stuck in legal limbo. In a recent note, Ives argued that Musk needed a new package giving him 25% voting power to incentivize him, along with “guardrails” that guaranteed his time at the company.

Even if they don’t merge, Tesla and xAI both run on the same vein in terms of climbing and falling together. In addition, xAI bought out Musk’s X.com in a deal valuing X.com at $33 billion back in March 2025, a very good deal for investors in the social media company. Further implementation of his companies could bring well-rounded profits for Elon Musk, Tesla (TSLA), and its siblings.

In the past month, Tesla stock has been in a downward trend, with short periods of upside due to news around the company. In June, the initial robotaxi launch in Austin, TX, was a success, sending shares upwards. Musk’s reported recommitment to the company after a venture in politics also enticed investors. However, he eventually backpedaled and announced a potential new political party, sending TSLA shares down again. In the last 30 days, the stock is down 2.8% as a result of the inconsistency.

Currently trading at around $316, Tesla (TSLA) stock is bearish, according to investing experts. TSLA stock is trading in the middle of its 52-week range and below its 200-day simple moving average. While Ives is bullish, analysts at CNN are on the flip side, rating Tesla (TSLA) a 1/10 stock choice. Out of 55 analysts surveyed, 44% suggest buying the stock, 36% advise holding, and 20% opt for selling.
