AppLovin stock falls nearly 3% into year-end as tech slide hits high-growth names

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 17:17 ET — After-hours AppLovin Corp shares fell 2.9% on Wednesday to $673.43, extending a late-December pullback on the final trading day of 2025. The stock traded between $698.79 and $672.29, with about 1.5 million shares changing hands, according to Investing.com data.

U.S. trading volumes totaled 11.17 billion shares versus a 20-session average of 15.8 billion, and markets are closed Thursday for New Year’s Day, Reuters reported. “It’s

Eli Lilly stock dips after hours as Jardiance, Mounjaro price-cut headlines land into 2026

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 17:16 ET — After-hours Eli Lilly and Co (LLY) shares slipped in after-hours trading on Wednesday. The stock was down about 0.5% at $1,074.68, after trading between $1,074.39 and $1,083.25 during the day on roughly 1.5 million shares. Drug pricing has moved back to the center of the investment case for large-cap pharmaceuticals as Washington pushes for lower costs and companies adjust prices in overseas growth markets. For Lilly, price assumptions matter because investors have priced in years of strong growth from its GLP‑1 franchise, a hormone-based drug class used for diabetes and weight loss.

UnitedHealth stock slips into year-end close — what traders are watching next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 17:12 ET — After-hours UnitedHealth Group Inc shares were down $2.03, or 0.6%, at $330.11 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after moving between $329.46 and $333.24 in the regular session. About 4.2 million shares changed hands. The pullback matters because investors are entering 2026 focused on two levers that can swing health-insurer earnings quickly: medical-cost trends and the pace of regulatory scrutiny tied to government-funded programs. UnitedHealth has been a bellwether for managed care. When sentiment shifts on Medicare and Medicaid oversight, the stock often trades less on day-to-day news and more on expectations for

CoreWeave stock slides after-hours as insider sale filing keeps pressure on CRWV

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 17:04 ET — After-hours CoreWeave shares fell 3.1% to $71.61 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after sliding in the regular session and swinging between $70.43 and $74.30 during the day. The pullback matters because CoreWeave has been a heavily watched “AI infrastructure” trade, where sentiment can turn quickly on any sign insiders are cashing out or that expansion plans will require fresh funding. It also comes after the company cut its annual revenue forecast in November, citing data center delays, a setback that sharpened investor focus on execution in a business that depends on rapid

Coinbase stock drops after hours as bitcoin heads for first annual loss since 2022

Coinbase stock drops after hours as bitcoin heads for first annual loss since 2022

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:04 PM ET — After-hours Coinbase Global shares slid 2.4% to $226.14 in after-hours trading on Wednesday. The move matters because Coinbase’s results are closely tied to crypto trading activity. When investors trade less, exchanges collect fewer transaction fees. Crypto sentiment turned cautious into year-end as bitcoin headed for its first annual loss since 2022, down more than 6% for 2025, Reuters reported. Bitcoin hit a record above $126,000 in October but lost momentum after U.S. tariff and export-control headlines sparked a sharp selloff and more than $19 billion of forced liquidations across leveraged positions,

Ondas stock jumps after $10 million order update; insider sale notices hit SEC

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:00 ET — After-hours Ondas Holdings Inc. shares climbed in after-hours trading on Wednesday after the company announced new purchase orders for its autonomous systems portfolio. The update matters because order flow is one of the clearest near-term signals for small defense-technology suppliers that are still proving repeatable demand. Investors are looking for contract wins that can translate into shipments and revenue over the next few quarters. Ondas said the roughly $10 million in new orders spans counter-UAS systems, integrated autonomous drone systems and robotic ground platforms. Counter-UAS, short for counter-unmanned aircraft systems, refers to

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:02 PM ET — After-hours Intel Corp (INTC) shares fell about 1.0% in Wednesday’s regular session to $36.90 and were little changed in after-hours trading. The stock ranged from $36.84 to $38.01 on the day, with volume around 51 million shares. The move tracked a tech-led dip that pulled the S&P 500 down 0.73% and the Nasdaq off 0.76% in holiday-thin trading, Reuters reported. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 16:50 ET — After-hours Robinhood Markets, Inc. (Nasdaq: HOOD) shares fell about 2% on Wednesday and were last down 2.1% at $113.10 in after-hours trading, after moving between $112.50 and $115.90 during the session.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 4:48 ET — After-hours Oracle Corp shares were down 1.2% at $194.91 shortly after the close on Wednesday, as trading thinned into the New Year holiday. The move matters now because Oracle has become a bellwether for investor appetite for big-ticket cloud infrastructure spending tied to artificial intelligence. With the calendar turning, portfolio managers are rebalancing exposure and scrutinizing cash needs across the AI supply chain. For Oracle, the debate has centered on how quickly cloud demand converts into profit while the company ramps spending on data centers — large, long-lived projects that can weigh
