SpaceX stock (ISIN US84615Q1031) traded at USD 154.81 on September 17, 2026, after a 2.6 percent gain, while MarketWatch showed a market cap of USD 2.05 trillion and a 52-week range of USD 104.83 to USD 225.64 as of September 14, 2026.

Q2 numbers still matter

According to MarketBeat, SpaceX last released earnings results on August 4, 2026, and reported EPS of minus USD 0.09 for the quarter, which beat the consensus estimate of minus USD 0.26 by USD 0.17. The same report put quarterly revenue at USD 7.81 billion, up 91.9 percent year over year.

That combination still drives the stock story. The quarter also leaves investors with a simple comparison: revenue almost doubled, while the loss per share was 65.4 percent smaller than expected.

Analysts and targets

According to MarketBeat, analysts currently show an average rating of Moderate Buy for SpaceX, with an average target price of USD 221.42. The same page cited Arete Research with a USD 450 target, set on August 11, 2026, and Guggenheim with a Buy rating from August 7, 2026.

For investors, the gap between USD 154.81 and the USD 221.42 average target is still material. The market is also pricing in a large range of expectations, from cautious Hold calls to a much higher USD 450 target.
