The move came after three launches in under 13 hours. The stock also printed a new multi-month high.

SPCX News Today: Why Did the Stock Jump 7.35%?

Reports link the jump to the launch streak. The stock opened at $149.55 and climbed through most of the session. It stayed near the highs into the close.

Volume backed the move. About 119.27 million shares traded, roughly 29% above the 92.37 million average.

That points to real interest. Still, one busy day does not make a trend.

SpaceX Stock News: What Happened in 13 Hours?

SpaceX ran three launches between 11:10 a.m. ET and 11:54 p.m. ET on Thursday. Each one touched a different part of the business.

Transporter-18 also carried a prototype satellite for Alphabet's Project Suncatcher. Google said it made contact and the spacecraft works as expected.SpaceX Just Launched 3 Rockets in 13 Hours

Is SpaceX Moving Into AI Computing in Space?

Project Suncatcher tests whether AI chips can run reliably in orbit. The prototype holds four Google TPUs. They face launch stress, radiation, and extreme temperatures.

SpaceX has its own plan. Elon Musk said proposed Starmind satellites could produce more than 250 kilowatts of solar power. That is above the ISS capacity.

The company is also working with Nvidia on a space version of its Vera Rubin AI hardware.

Not everyone is convinced. Kalshi traders give a 36% chance that a one-megawatt data center runs in orbit before 2035.

SPCX Price Prediction: Key Support and Resistance Levels

On the chart, SPCX trades inside a rising channel. It holds above its 20-, 50-, and 100-day EMAs.

RSI is near 65. That is positive, but close to the 70 line, which many traders call overbought.

SpaceX Stock Forecast: Bullish and Bearish Scenarios

Bullish case: If SPCX holds above $160, the next resistance is $165 to $166. A clean move past it would put $179 to $180 in view, about 13% above the close.

Bearish case: A break below $151 to $148 would weaken the setup. It could open a path toward $140 to $133, a drop of roughly 12% to 16%.

Sideways case: After a 7% day, the price may pause between $151 and $160 while buyers and sellers reset.

SPCX Stock Forecast: What Does the $226.04 Target Mean?

The one-year target estimate is $226.04. That is about 42% above the close and near the 52-week high of $225.64.

Targets change often and can miss. The stock is still about 29.5% below that high, and about 52% above its low of $104.83.

Valuation is another point. Market cap is 2.094 trillion,while trailing EPS is-1.10. There is no P/E ratio to lean on.

Earnings are estimated for Nov 3, 2026. That date may bring fresh SPCX news and a sharp price reaction in either direction.

Is SPCX Stock a Buy? Risks to Watch

No one can answer that for you. A few risks are worth knowing.

  • RSI near 65 leaves less room before overbought territory.

  • The company reports a loss per share on a trailing basis.

  • Orbital AI computing is early, and timing is uncertain.

  • A failed or delayed launch could hurt sentiment.
