SpaceX stock was at EUR 145.77 at Lang & Schwarz on October 13, 2026 at 12:42 p.m. CEST. On October 8, 2026, SpaceX agreed to acquire up to 14 megahertz of paired 800 MHz spectrum for Starlink Mobile, while Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas reiterated a USD 300 price target for SpaceX stock on October 6, 2026, according to CNBC.

SpaceX adds low-band spectrum

The spectrum agreement covers a nationwide portfolio in the 800 MHz band. SpaceX said the low-band licenses would help Starlink Mobile combine satellite coverage with terrestrial deployment and improve signal penetration inside buildings, subject to final approval by the Federal Communications Commission.

Reuters reported on October 8, 2026 that the transaction would move Starlink Mobile closer to competing directly with established US wireless operators. Financial terms were not disclosed.

What does the spectrum deal add?

SpaceX also said on October 8, 2026 that the FCC had authorized 15,000 next-generation satellites optimized for 2 GHz spectrum. The company said those satellites could deliver more than 100 times the bandwidth of its current generation to unmodified devices, giving the spectrum purchase a concrete network expansion angle.

That combination matters because the deal is not only a satellite licensing transaction. It links Starlink Mobile's orbital network with a ground-based coverage layer, potentially broadening the service from a satellite supplement into a more complete mobile offering. The FCC approval requirement remains a material milestone before the planned architecture can operate at full scale.

Three milestones shape the story

On August 6, 2026, SpaceX and Tesla described Terafab as a planned semiconductor facility with more than 100 million square feet of manufacturing space and USD 16.8 billion of initial capital investment, according to SpaceX. On September 15, 2026, the company said Starship's first orbital missions would use more than 500 physical sensors to monitor the vehicle. On October 8, 2026, the company announced the 14 megahertz spectrum agreement and the 15,000-satellite authorization.

The figures show why the investment case extends beyond launches. Starlink Mobile, orbital infrastructure and chip manufacturing are being developed as connected businesses, while Morgan Stanley's USD 300 target places valuation attention on future network and artificial intelligence opportunities rather than only existing launch revenue.

SpaceX stock stays in a wide range
