About this episode

Welcome back to The Deal Room, our mid-week show where we talk all things corporate finance.


Up for discussion in this episode:


- Elon Musk’s SpaceX is offering to sell insider shares at a price that would raise the company’s valuation to about $150bn. So what is a tender offer and why is space a growth area?


- Aston Martin has struck a strategic supply agreement for high-performance EVs with U.S.-based Lucid Group. We unpick the deal rationale and what role the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF) has to play.


- Goldman Sachs is set to lay off 125 managing directors in the third round of job cuts in less than a year. We discuss the cyclical nature of IBD.
