NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 19:00 ET — Market closed Shares of ACM Research, Inc. rose 13.76% on Friday to close at $44.88, their biggest daily gain in months, after trading between $40.86 and $44.99. The stock finished within 24 cents of its 52-week high of $45.12, according to StockAnalysis. StockAnalysis The outsized move matters because ACMR has been one of the higher-beta names in the chip-tool space, where momentum can turn quickly as investors reset positions for the new year.

CleanSpark stock jumps 14% to start 2026 as Bitcoin steadies near $90,000 — what’s next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:56 ET — Market closed CleanSpark shares jumped 14.1% in the latest session, closing at $11.55 after swinging between $10.18 and $11.58. With U.S. markets shut for the weekend, the stock’s most recent after-hours print was $11.59. Yahoo Finance The rally mattered because crypto-linked equities are starting 2026 still tethered to bitcoin’s day-to-day swings. Bitcoin mining companies sell or hold the coins they produce, so a move in the token can quickly change revenue expectations in dollar terms. That sensitivity is coming into focus ahead of a busy U.S. economic week. Traders are watching whether

Energy Fuels (UUUU) stock jumps 15% in 2026’s first session — what’s behind it and what’s next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:57 ET — Market closed Energy Fuels Inc shares closed up 14.7% at $16.68 on Friday, the first U.S. trading session of 2026, after swinging between $14.66 and $17.07. Investing The move matters because uranium-linked names are often driven by momentum and commodity pricing, and the sector started the year with a broad risk-on bid. Traders use the early-January tape to gauge whether last year’s uranium theme is re-accelerating or fading. Energy Fuels sits in the middle of two narratives — nuclear fuel and critical minerals — which can amplify its moves when investors rotate

Baidu stock jumps nearly 15% after AI chip unit Kunlunxin files for Hong Kong IPO

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:50 ET — Market closed Baidu’s U.S.-listed American depositary shares (BIDU) closed up 14.9% at $150.30 on Friday after the company said its AI chip unit Kunlunxin had filed for a Hong Kong listing. Baidu said Kunlunxin submitted a listing application to the Hong Kong stock exchange (HKEX) on a confidential basis, setting the stage for a spin-off — listing a subsidiary separately from the parent. The company said the move is meant to better showcase Kunlunxin’s value and broaden financing channels, and that Kunlunxin is expected to remain a Baidu subsidiary after the transaction.

Tesla Q4 2025 delivery miss hands BYD the EV crown — Stifel pays another structured-note settlement

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:54 ET Tesla said it delivered 418,227 vehicles in the fourth quarter of 2025 and 1,636,129 vehicles in 2025, while producing 434,358 vehicles in the quarter. The company also deployed 14.2 gigawatt-hours of energy storage products, a record, and set its quarterly results for Jan. 28. Tesla Investor Relations Investors treat Tesla’s delivery figures as one of the clearest snapshots of demand because the company does not publish monthly sales. The update lands weeks before Tesla’s earnings report, when it typically provides more detail on pricing, margins and outlook. Tesla lost its crown as the

NuScale Power stock jumps 15% to start 2026 as nuclear names rally — what to watch Monday

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:56 ET — Market closed NuScale Power Corp (SMR) shares climbed 15.1% on Friday to $16.31, after trading between $14.33 and $16.73. Volume was about 31.1 million shares. The move put the spotlight back on small modular reactor developers, a corner of the market that has been driven as much by shifting risk appetite as by company-specific milestones. “Value is outperforming growth and AI infrastructure is up, and … energy probably too,” said Jed Ellerbroek, a portfolio manager at Argent Capital in St. Louis, describing the market tone on the first trading day of 2026.

Sandisk stock jumps nearly 16% as board addition caps strong start to 2026

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:49 ET — Market closed Sandisk Corp shares jumped 15.95% on Friday to close at $275.24, their best day so far this year, as the Nasdaq-listed flash-storage maker rode a rebound in chip-linked stocks. The stock traded between $242.00 and $278.78 and changed hands at roughly 11.1 million shares. The move matters because Sandisk has become a high-beta proxy for artificial-intelligence infrastructure spending, as data centers lean on flash-based solid-state drives for faster storage. The company was spun off from Western Digital in February and finished 2025 up about 559% from its $36 debut price,

American Airlines stock: What investors are watching after FAA Caribbean airspace shutdown

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:32 ET — Market closed American Airlines Group Inc. stock heads into the next U.S. trading session in focus after the Federal Aviation Administration shut parts of Caribbean airspace to U.S. carriers, forcing widespread flight cancellations on Saturday. The closure followed a U.S. military operation in Venezuela that President Donald Trump said resulted in the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro; airline analyst Robert Mann said, “They have a day’s worth of passengers basically.” Reuters The disruption matters now because airlines can lose revenue when flights are canceled and also incur extra costs to rebook

The stock was up about 0.4% in after-hours trading, StockAnalysis data showed.

NIO stock today: Shares close higher on record deliveries as traders line up next catalysts

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:30 ET — Market closed NIO Inc. shares closed higher on Friday after the Chinese electric-vehicle maker reported record deliveries for December and the fourth quarter. The U.S.-listed stock ended up 0.78% at $5.14. StockAnalysis The delivery update is one of the first hard data points for China’s EV demand as investors reset expectations for 2026.

Archer Aviation stock jumps 8% (ACHR) — insider sale filing and key dates investors watch next week

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:20 ET — Market closed Archer Aviation Inc shares ended Friday up about 8.4% at $8.13, after swinging between $7.51 and $8.20. Roughly 45 million shares changed hands. The move matters now because early-stage “advanced air mobility” stocks tend to trade on shifts in risk appetite as much as company-specific headlines.

Singapore Airlines stock dips as supply-chain “new norm” raises cost focus before SGX reopens

7 February 2026
Singapore, Feb 7, 2026, 15:06 (SGT) — Market closed Singapore Airlines Ltd shares slipped on Friday, ending at S$6.70, as investors weighed fresh warnings that aircraft parts shortages are becoming a longer-running drag on airline costs. (Yahoo Finance) The pressure point is maintenance and reliability, not bookings. Executives at this week’s Singapore Airshow said supply delays have become a “new norm”, and Scoot chief executive Leslie Thng said the airline has had to “secure more spare engines at our own expense” to limit disruption. IATA said global passenger traffic in 2025 was about 9.3% above 2019 levels and forecast another
