Nasdaq Falls After Unexpected Late Jobs Data

Nasdaq Falls After Unexpected Late Jobs Data

Stocks fell sharply Friday, pulled down by weakness in chipmakers. A strong jobs report pushed investors to bet the Fed will hang on to higher rates. The Dow Jones Industrial Average sank 439.25 points, or 0.85%, closing at 51,122.68. The S&P 500 dropped 138.07 points, or 1.82%, to 7,446.24. The Nasdaq Composite was down 823.61 points, or 3.07%, at 26,007.35. Jobs numbers shook trading. The Labor Department said nonfarm payrolls were up by 172,000 in May while jobless rate stayed at 4.3%. Gains came from leisure and hospitality, local government, and health care. Financial activities lost jobs.
AT&T Shares Rebound as SpaceX Threat Stays Front and Center

AT&T Shares Rebound as SpaceX Threat Stays Front and Center

AT&T Inc shares picked up 1.1% to $23.02 late Friday, recovering a bit after a tough week that saw a selloff as the company’s cash-return case faces a new test with SpaceX’s Starlink entering the picture. Verizon moved up 2.6%, and T-Mobile US gained 2.2%. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF, which tracks the broader market, dropped 2.4%. AT&T’s investment story has leaned on stable wireless numbers, fiber growth, and payouts for shareholders, but that got called into question this week. Oppenheimer put out a warning, and Reuters picked it up, saying SpaceX’s Starlink could shake up the $1.6 trillion U.S. communications industry. The note pointed to established broadband names like AT&T as possibly most exposed, with SpaceX expected to hit Nasdaq on June 12 at a $1.75 trillion valuation.
Tesla Stock Slips After $475 Wall Street Reset

Tesla Stock Slips After $475 Wall Street Reset

Tesla shares were off 5% at $397.42 by midday Friday, tracking losses in the tech sector. This comes after J.P. Morgan dropped its bearish view on the EV maker and upped its target on the stock to $475. Earlier in the day, Tesla reached $424.18. Mixed reaction to Tesla says a lot about where the trade is now. Wall Street isn't just looking at car sales and margin anymore. Investors are trying to figure out how to price future bets on robotaxis, robotics and AI, while rate worries still weigh on long-duration growth stocks.

Reddit Moves Higher Ahead of Open After $260 Wall Street Target

Reddit Inc. shares traded up ahead of Friday’s session, building on Thursday’s big jump. Loop Capital kept its Buy call and $260 target, which the firm says is where the stock could go. Google Finance had Reddit at $185.60 before the bell, up 0.92%. The stock finished Thursday at $183.91, an 8.51% gain. The call is back in focus as Reddit’s slide looks more like a valuation reset than a change in story. StockStory pointed to a Loop report that put upside at over 50% from shares trading near $169, mentioning Reddit’s revenue growth, its ad monetization, and its AI data licensing—payments for Reddit content used by artificial-intelligence tools.
Nu Holdings Unveils $1 Billion Buyback; Investors Cautious

Nu Holdings Unveils $1 Billion Buyback; Investors Cautious

Nu Holdings Ltd. shares are set for Friday’s U.S. trade with a $1 billion buyback in place, while investors still want clarity on management. The ADRs last changed hands at $12.12, up 4.1% at Thursday’s close after the buyback announcement. Timing is key. Nubank shares dropped earlier this week after the company named Rob Livingston, who used to be at Visa, as its new CFO. He takes over from longtime finance boss Guilherme Lago on July 13. BofA Securities’ Mario Pierry downgraded Nubank to Underperform, slashing his price target to $10 from $16. Pierry said in a note that Lago “was one of the company’s most important executives” and the move “adds uncertainty.”

Social Security Payments Face $500 Monthly Cut by 2032, All States Affected

Social Security Payments Face $500 Monthly Cut by 2032, All States Affected

Social Security’s main fund is on track to run short in about 2032, leaving retirees with about $500 less each month if Congress does nothing, according to a new report from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget. The group said this week that a 24% cut would drop average monthly checks by $459 to $556 in every state and Washington, D.C. Timing is an issue ahead of the Social Security Administration’s next annual trustees report, expected in the next few weeks. The report will restart the countdown on a program that delivers monthly payments to tens of millions. Last year, the trustees had the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance Trust Fund, or OASI, running at full benefits through 2033. But the agency later pulled that date forward to Q4 2032 after a tax change cut revenue from taxes on benefits.

Nvidia Stock Steady Even as AI Chip Trade Falters

Nvidia Stock Steady Even as AI Chip Trade Falters

Nvidia traded above $218 ahead of the U.S. session Friday. The world’s largest AI-chip name heads into the day with chip stocks under a cloud, after a Broadcom-driven drop weighed on the sector. Shares last traded at $218.66, up $3.95, or nearly 1.8%. That gives the company a market cap around $5.33 trillion.

Solidion Stock Soars 357%, Focus Turns to Friday Open

Solidion Stock Soars 357%, Focus Turns to Friday Open

Solidion Technology Inc shares are under pressure Friday morning after leaping 356.94% to $22.71 on Thursday. The rally came after Solidion unveiled its new patented battery platform, which it says can work in extreme conditions—targeting satellites, lunar equipment and low-Earth-orbit AI data centers. Low Earth orbit refers to space close to the planet, where most satellites are positioned. STI flipped from a sleepy micro-cap name to one of the market’s sharper one-day movers. Traders started to reprice the stock after a claim tying together space infrastructure, AI computing, and next-gen batteries hit. That puts Friday in focus as the first full session since that move.

BitMine touts 9.5% yield on Ether, but Tom Lee’s crypto firm adds conditions

BitMine Immersion Technologies filed a plan to sell 3 million Series A perpetual preferred shares. The shares come with a 9.50% yearly dividend. If all are sold at $100 each, the raise would total $300 million. According to the preliminary prospectus, dividends are set to be paid out weekly in cash when the board declares them. Digital-asset treasury companies want to keep buying crypto but don’t want to rely just on common-stock deals, keeping an eye on crypto prices and their own securities as they trade lower. BitMine, chaired by Fundstrat’s Tom Lee, is now using a model usually seen at bitcoin-heavy companies like Strategy and Strive, but this time for an Ethereum treasury.

ASML Trading Close to €1,500 After New Wall Street Backing

ASML Holding shares nearly hit €1,500 in Amsterdam on Thursday, building on their AI-fueled rally. The stock got a boost after two brokerages lifted their price targets.

Snap Shares Climb as Debt Markets Send Signal

Snap Shares Climb as Debt Markets Send Signal

Snap Inc. shares climbed almost 7% late Thursday morning after S&P Global Ratings upgraded the company’s credit rating and gave a positive outlook for the coming year. The stock was at $6.13 around 10:52 a.m. EDT, 40 cents higher from Wednesday’s close. Trading volume was near 17.7 million shares. S&P’s upgrade is key for Snap as it attempts to leave behind its days as a high-growth, unprofitable app and show it can cover its own costs. A credit rating tracks a borrower's capacity to pay back what it owes; S&P considers anything under BBB- as speculative or junk, so investors usually want a higher yield for that risk.
