FreeCast (CAST) Goes Parabolic
A Starlink deal lit the fuse on one of today’s wildest trades.
By the time most traders finished their morning coffee, CAST was already up nearly 170%.
FreeCast, Inc. (NASDAQ: CAST) exploded in pre-market trading Thursday morning after announcing a reseller agreement for Starlink Business services. Shares were last seen around $13.80 to $14.13 ahead of the opening bell, depending on where you were looking, after spending the better part of early June trading below $1. That’s not a misprint. The stock hit an all-time low of $0.50 on June 11th.
What happened? FreeCast struck a deal to resell SpaceX’s enterprise satellite broadband alongside its existing media and streaming platform. The idea is to bundle Starlink’s high-speed internet with FreeCast’s Platform-as-a-Service tools, targeting multifamily housing, student communities, hotels, healthcare systems, rural markets, and even maritime operators. Connectivity plus content, packaged through a single vendor. That’s the pitch.
Legendary trader makes the boldest prediction of his 40-year career
In 2025, Larry Benedict delivered a 279% return on cash. He went 13-for-13 after Trump’s election. Not a single losing trade.
During Liberation Day’s chaos, his readers made 59%… then 30%… then 29%. Three winning trades in three weeks.
Now Larry says Elon Musk is preparing the biggest move of his career – and everything in 2025 was a warm-up.
He’s calling it the “Final Phase of Elon’s Master Plan”. And there’s ONE ticker right at the center of it.

This move also comes right on the heels of FreeCast expanding its DIRECTV relationship earlier this week, which was itself the fuel behind Monday’s explosive rally. So in the span of a few days, this tiny Orlando-based streaming company has attached its name to two of the most headline-grabbing brands in media and tech. That’s not an accident. That’s a company aggressively hunting for momentum.
Here’s where I’d slow down though.
FreeCast’s Q1 2026 financials tell a very different story than the stock chart. The company reported revenues of just under $93,000 against a net loss of $4.53 million for the quarter. Management itself flagged “substantial doubt” about the company’s ability to continue as a going concern without additional capital. The accumulated deficit sits north of $200 million. This is not a company firing on all cylinders. It’s a company making big partnership announcements while operating on financial fumes.
Slight tangent, but worth noting: the Starlink angle gets extra juice right now because SpaceX just completed a record-breaking IPO this week. Anything with a Starlink connection is getting a second look from retail traders scanning for momentum. CAST was perfectly positioned to catch that wave, intentional or not.

The stock’s 52-week range runs from $0.50 to $33.00. Read that again. This thing has seen both ends of the spectrum within the past year. What’s interesting is that even after today’s massive surge, CAST is still well off its March highs. That context matters when you’re thinking about where price action goes from here.
Day traders are treating this as a pure momentum play with a low float and massive percentage ranges. Message boards lit up overnight. Volume is running hot. The 5-minute candles are brutal, with sharp spikes followed by quick fades, then another push. Classic low-float behavior.
Whether the Starlink partnership actually translates into meaningful revenue is a question for another quarter. Right now, the market isn’t asking that question.
