SpaceX arguably has the world's most advanced space technology. Space exploration plans rely on two other business segments.
Investors who bought SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) stock during the August recovery rally have yet to fully recover their losses despite a strong rebound over the past month.
SPCX briefly reclaimed a $2 trillion market cap as Starlink growth, launch dominance and AI ambitions fueled investor optimism despite execution risks.
SpaceX is rated Strong Buy with a $220 price target, implying 47% upside driven by robust AI growth. SPCX operates three segments: Connectivity (55% of revenue), AI (33%), and Space (12%), each in aggressive ramp mode. AI, especially post-xAI acquisition, is the primary long-term growth driver, projected to reach a ~$330B top line by decade's end.
SpaceX debuted as one of the most anticipated IPOs in history, yet the stock still sits below its first closing price while one analyst has staked out a target that towers above every other call on Wall Street.
SpaceX (NASDAQ: SPCX) is scheduled to attempt to reach a technological milestone with the Starship Flight Test 14 and, according to ChatGPT's advanced artificial intelligence (AI), the launch can also constitute a stock market milestone.
A trader bet $10M on SPCX reclaiming $175 by January 2028, while Tesla dominated options flow with $900M tied to bullish calls. Oppenheimer's Tim Horan raised his SpaceX price target to $280, and similar institutional put selling near August lows preceded a 23% rally.

As Space Exploration Technologies Corp. (NASDAQ: SPCX) stock remained above its IPO (Initial Public Offering) price over the past four weeks through September 2, 2026, Timothy Horan, a Wall Street analyst at Oppenheimer, is more convinced that SpaceX could rally to a new all-time high (ATH) over the next 12 months.
SpaceX stock has rebounded in the past few weeks, moving from the year-to-date low of $104 to the current $142. This rebound, however, is losing momentum, and the stock faces some major risks that may affect its performance in the coming months.
