NEW YORK — Shares of SpaceX held their ground on Tuesday, with the newly public space and AI giant trading roughly flat as investors looked ahead to a pivotal Starship test flight later this week. SpaceX — NASDAQ: SPCX — changed hands near $142, little moved on the session even as the broader market chopped around.
The steadiness is notable given how much news is converging on the company. SpaceX, which now includes xAI following their combination, has become one of the most closely watched names on the Nasdaq since its listing, and traders have been weighing a dense calendar of catalysts — from launch milestones to the roughly $100 billion revenue run rate Musk has described.
$SPCX Steady Ahead of Flight 15
$SPCX last traded around $142.22, up about 0.1% on the day, after closing the prior session at $142.07. The stock swung between roughly $137.65 and $144.89 intraday and sits within a 52-week range of about $104.83 to $225.64, giving the company a market capitalization near $1.93 trillion. (Prices are point-in-time and roughly as of midday Eastern on Nov. 10, 2026.)
The near-term focus is SpaceX's next Starship mission, Flight 15, which the company is targeting for later this week with an ambitious dual-catch attempt. A clean flight would reinforce the operational story underpinning the bull case, which increasingly leans on recurring revenue from Starlink and AI compute rather than one-off launches.
Tesla and the Broader Tape
Tesla — NASDAQ: TSLA — has traded less decisively in recent sessions, with sentiment buffeted by post-election crosscurrents and the usual debate over how fast its robotaxi and energy businesses can scale. Even so, both Musk-led names remain central to how growth investors are positioning, and the two stories are increasingly intertwined through shared ambitions in AI compute, energy, and autonomy. The $SPCX thesis in particular has leaned on a deep backlog, including the Anthropic compute commitment that bulls see as a durable anchor.

What to Watch
With Flight 15 on the horizon and a steady drumbeat of Starlink and compute news, $SPCX looks poised to stay in the spotlight. A successful double catch would be the kind of visible, repeatable milestone that long-term holders want to see, while $TSLA investors keep one eye on robotaxi expansion and the other on the energy ramp. For now, SpaceX's flat tape suggests a market content to wait for the next catalyst rather than chase the move.
