Amphenol stock slides after Nvidia’s Rubin “cable-free” reveal; focus turns to Jan. 28 earnings

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 19:53 EST — After-hours Amphenol Corp (APH.N) shares ended down 1.8% at $138.91 on Wednesday, after a sharp bout of volatility earlier in the week tied to investor nerves about the next generation of AI hardware. The move matters because Amphenol has become a crowded way to play data-center buildouts — and those bets can turn fast when big customers change designs. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang this week described linking Rubin chips into “pods” of more than 1,000, saying they could lift the efficiency of generating “tokens” — the basic unit of AI output —

Nike stock drops after-hours after sale of NFT unit RTFKT, RBC trims target

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 7:43 PM EST — After-hours Nike (NKE) shares fell on Wednesday after the company sold RTFKT, its digital products subsidiary, retreating further from blockchain-based collectibles known as NFTs, or non-fungible tokens. A Nike spokesperson said RTFKT “transitioned to a new owner on December 17,” and Nike declined to disclose terms or the buyer. Bloomberg Law The move lands as investors look for signs Nike’s turnaround is narrowing back to its core footwear and apparel engine, after a stretch of experiments that did not move the needle for the stock.

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 19:39 ET — After-hours SoFi Technologies (SOFI.O) shares were up about 0.1% at $27 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after ranging from $26.42 to $27.18 in the session. The stock has been whipsawed this week by a familiar mix for fast-growing consumer finance names: capital raises, valuation arguments, and what happens to loan growth when the market stops giving you the benefit of the doubt. SoFi said in an SEC filing that underwriters exercised an option to buy additional shares and the company completed the issuance and sale on Jan. 5, bringing the total shares

NEW YORK, January 7, 2026, 19:32 EST — After-hours BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc shares were last down 6% at $30.36 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after a choppy session that saw the stock swing between $30.24 and $32.81.

Accenture plc stock slips after Faculty AI deal; what traders watch next

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 7:39 PM EST — After-hours Accenture plc shares were little changed in after-hours trade on Wednesday, last at $273.98 after ending the regular session down 0.7%. The pullback came as investors sized up Accenture’s latest bet on artificial intelligence, and a broader market that has started to look more selective.

New York, January 7, 2026, 19:11 (EST) Rumble Inc launched a crypto wallet with stablecoin issuer Tether on Wednesday, aiming to let viewers pay creators directly on its platform.

Salad and Go is quitting Texas and Oklahoma — and closing its last 32 stores

Dallas, Jan 7, 2026, 18:04 CST Salad and Go said on Wednesday it will close all remaining restaurants in Texas and Oklahoma, pulling the drive-thru salad chain out of two states that had become its main growth markets outside Arizona. The move lands as the company tries to reset after a rapid buildout and then a first wave of closures announced in September. It is now shrinking back to a smaller footprint it says it can run better, with fewer moving parts and less distance between its kitchens and stores. It also yanks the company’s center of gravity out of
