Nokia Oyj (HEL:NOKIA, NYSE:NOK) slips heading into Q2; AI-optical momentum pressured

Nokia Oyj (HEL:NOKIA, NYSE:NOK) slips heading into Q2; AI-optical momentum pressured

Nokia Oyj fell in Helsinki on Monday, changing hands at €11.71 at 12:33 EEST, off 0.68%, after its New York ADR finished at $13.49, down 2.46%. There’s no new profit warning—Nokia’s last stock exchange update is still its June 9 treasury-share transfer. Traders seem to be selling the AI-optical network rally as the Q2 closed window arrives Tuesday, with earnings set for July 23. Retail traders face a clear choice: is this a reset or the first slip for the AI premium? Nokia Oyj is working on two timelines right now. The stock has fallen about 21.9% from its June 3 high in Helsinki at €14.995 to around €11.715. Next, investors face a one-month window to judge if the Q1 AI-cloud jump was a flash or the start of a higher-margin optical phase.

SPCX Faces Pressure With SpaceX’s $60 Billion AI Push Straining Valuation

SpaceX stock slipped ahead of Monday’s U.S. open as traders cashed out gains from the record IPO and priced in the $60 billion Cursor deal. The most recent quote for Space Exploration Technologies Corp. was $185.00, down $6.64 or about 3.46% as of 04:06 EDT. Google Finance’s regular-session close on Thursday also showed $185.00, a drop of $6.82 or 3.56%. At $185, the shares are still 37.0% up from the $135 IPO price, but sit 18.0% below the $225.64 high. Space Exploration Technologies Corp. started publicly trading its Class A shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market and Nasdaq Texas on June 12, 2026, picking up the ticker “SPCX.” The IPO priced after the underwriters took up their full allotment, with 638,888,888 shares moving and gross proceeds of about $85.7 billion.

Verizon stock ends short week lower as plan overhaul faces investor test

Verizon stock ends short week lower as plan overhaul faces investor test

Verizon Communications Inc. ended a holiday-shortened week under pressure, with the stock falling in all four trading sessions and closing Thursday at $45.37, down 5.7% from its June 12 close of $48.11. U.S. markets were shut Friday for Juneteenth, leaving that Thursday close as the latest full session price. The timing matters. Verizon’s selloff landed in the same week the company tried to sharpen its consumer pitch: simpler wireless plans, no activation or upgrade fees, and a loyalty program offering 3% back on bills from July. Alfonso Villanueva, interim CEO of Verizon Consumer Group and chief transformation officer, told Reuters the question was, “How do we create a value proposition that makes sense for every cohort?” and added that Verizon was convinced retention would improve.

Plug Power finishes week up as investors look at funding changes

Plug Power to watch cash and deals with Monday trade on deck

Plug Power Inc. will start the week trading above $2.80 after shares bounced on Thursday. The stock didn’t see any action on Friday, since Nasdaq stayed shut for Juneteenth on June 19. Nasdaq’s regular hours are 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Friday. This is key for the Plug trade, which remains more focused on liquidity than on single-day swings. Investors are still watching how much cash and financing Plug has to keep the business going, and they’re waiting to see if management can deliver on its pledge to get the hydrogen maker to positive adjusted profit by late this year.

BofA trades close to record ahead of Fed stress test week

BofA trades close to record ahead of Fed stress test week

Bank of America Corp shares start the week a touch below year highs. BAC last traded at $56.20 on Thursday, off 0.58% for the session. The stock had closed at $56.84 Tuesday and hit $57.98 Wednesday. Markets were closed Friday for Juneteenth. That’s relevant now as bank investors face two things: a more hawkish Federal Reserve, and the Fed’s comments on big-bank strength when it posts its yearly stress-test results Wednesday. Stress tests are regulatory checks where a severe recession is modeled to see if banks have the capital to keep lending.

AMC Entertainment stock heads into week ahead with Toy Story 5 box-office lift

AMC Entertainment Holdings enters the coming week with momentum after its shares climbed sharply in a holiday-shortened U.S. trading week, helped by stronger theater attendance, a completed stock sale and a weekend box-office jolt from Disney-Pixar’s “Toy Story 5.” The stock closed at $2.83 on Thursday, up 6.39% for the session and about 21% from the June 12 close of $2.34, according to market data. U.S. markets were closed Friday for Juneteenth and are closed Sunday, leaving Thursday’s close as the latest regular-session print.

Keel Infrastructure trades near highs going into the week with AI-infrastructure theme in focus

Keel Infrastructure under spotlight this week with AI data-center pivot meeting lease challenge

Keel Infrastructure Corp. is set to open Monday trading with its U.S. shares close to their recent top. During last week’s abbreviated session, buyers continued to back the company’s move out of bitcoin mining and into AI data-center infrastructure. The trade has shifted past just a rebrand, and that’s key. Keel needs to show it can turn access to power, sites, and grid into actual data-center lease deals — those longer-term rental contracts for compute space — instead of just talking up AI demand.

Blackstone-led lenders take control of Medallia, Thoma Bravo loses stake after recap

Blackstone-led lenders take control of Medallia, Thoma Bravo loses stake after recap

Medallia’s lenders are set to take over the customer and employee experience software company from Thoma Bravo in a recap that erases the buyout firm’s estimated $5 billion equity. The move is a big reversal for one of the most high-profile software deals from 2021. The deal puts private credit under the spotlight as loans shift from a paper loss to ownership. Lenders who backed pricey software buyouts aren't just writing down debt now. With Medallia, they're set to take over the company itself.

US financial shares look to Fed stress tests after volatile week

Fed stress-test results to drive U.S. bank stocks in coming week Results from the Federal Reserve’s annual stress test will likely steer U.S. financials this week after the group eked out a small advance in the holiday-shortened session. The Fed is set to release results for 32 major banks on Wednesday at 4 p.m. EDT. The exercise won’t affect banks’ capital requirements this time. But for investors, it gives a new look at balance-sheet strength as the Fed shifts focus to inflation and the personal consumption expenditures price index, which lands Thursday.

Joby Aviation stock closes at $10 in holiday-shortened week as air-taxi trade faces Monday test

Joby Aviation stock closes at $10 in holiday-shortened week as air-taxi trade faces Monday test

Joby Aviation ended a shortened U.S. trading week with a hard bounce, closing up 6.5% at $10.00 on Thursday, the last cash session before Juneteenth and the weekend. The move left the electric air-taxi developer back at a round-number level that traders often treat as a sentiment line, not a valuation anchor. The timing matters. There was no Friday session to test the rally, and U.S. equities will have to reopen with Joby already up about 9.3% from its June 12 close of $9.15. The stock rose Monday, fell Tuesday, edged up Wednesday and then jumped Thursday on volume of about 44.5 million shares.

Dell closes out short week with gains, AI server push stays in view

Dell Technologies Inc. shares rose for the week in shortened U.S. trading, despite falling Thursday. Investors kept buying the company’s artificial-intelligence server pitch, putting less weight on its legacy PC business. Dell shares finished at $409.50 on June 18, with a session range from $407.92 to $435.96, according to investor-relations data. The stock had climbed Monday, slipped Tuesday, jumped Wednesday, and dropped again Thursday, but stayed above the June 15 close.

Coherent shares edge up to close out short week, AI optics gains against China indium worries

Coherent Corp. finished the holiday-shortened week up, as buyers stuck with the stock on hopes for AI data center growth. A new Reuters piece about China looking at indium exports put supply risk back in the spotlight. Saxonburg, Pennsylvania's photonics firm ended regular Thursday trading up 2.8% at $389.57. With U.S. markets shut Friday for Juneteenth and closed over the weekend, next real trading comes Monday.

Vertiv sits close to its highs going into next week as AI data-center cooling trade stays in focus

Vertiv Holdings Co’s stock draws attention this week after climbing sharply Thursday, with traders moving back into data center suppliers for AI. The shares finished at $333.05 on June 18, up 4.87%. U.S. markets were shut Friday for Juneteenth. Timing is key. With U.S. cash equities shut on Friday, traders didn’t get to test the move, so Thursday’s rally is the last print until trading returns at the regular U.S. hours. Nasdaq has markets closed June 19 for Juneteenth, noting normal hours are 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern.

Plug Power finishes week up as investors look at funding changes

Plug Power stock managed a late-week bounce, finishing up 7.55% at $2.85 on Thursday. The move gave investors another swing to think about as markets stayed closed Friday for Juneteenth and didn’t open Saturday. Plug Power shares had wrapped their week early, with U.S. trading set to resume Monday. Plug Power is still moving more on balance sheet worries than on clean-energy hopes. On June 18, it registered another 25 million shares under its 2021 stock option and incentive plan. That follows shareholder approval for the increase at the June 11 annual meeting.

WELL Health slides as TSX holds steady; Circle Medical, cash flow draw attention

WELL Health Technologies Corp. dropped late Friday in Toronto, trailing the Canadian market. Investors set aside governance updates and kept focus on whether the health clinic group will turn strong revenue gains into better cash flow. The stock moved during a regular day for Canadian trading, with U.S. markets closed for Juneteenth. Earlier, Canada’s main stock index stayed mostly flat, Reuters said, as gains in energy shares balanced out declines from gold miners.

Exxon Mobil Shares Slide With Oil, XOM Off 6% for Holiday Week

Exxon Mobil Corp. goes into Monday’s open on the defensive. Shares dropped over the holiday week, with investors cutting the stock as oil’s war premium eased and more crude flowed through the Strait of Hormuz. The stock finished Thursday at $137.81, losing 2.08% on the day after dropping to as low as $135.85 during the session. The New York Stock Exchange did not open Friday for Juneteenth, which meant there was no chance for a regular-session move before the weekend.

AT&T falls before Juneteenth as copper fight in California, CFO shuffle weigh on fiber plan

AT&T shares fell 1.92% to $22.01 on Thursday, ending the week lower as traders looked at new regulatory heat in California and an incoming finance chief. The stock is down around 6.7% since closing at $23.58 on June 12. That’s a notable drop for a stock that’s long been favored for dividends and safety. The timing is key here. U.S. stock markets shut on Friday for Juneteenth, so the AT&T headlines that landed late Thursday won't trade until after the three-day break. New York Stock Exchange calendars list Friday, June 19, as a market holiday in 2026.

Super Micro Computer Stock Rebounds After $7 Billion AI Financing Shock, But Risks Stay in View

Super Micro Computer’s shares go into the long U.S. weekend with a sharp Thursday bounce, but not with the week’s damage fully repaired. U.S. exchanges are shut Friday for Juneteenth, leaving Thursday’s close as the latest regular-session mark. The reason this matters now is simple: investors are no longer just asking whether demand for artificial intelligence, or AI, servers is strong. They are asking how much stock Super Micro must sell to fund that demand, and how much existing holders will be diluted before the orders turn into cash.

US Futures Edge Up in Holiday Session With Nasdaq Out Front

Nasdaq 100 futures pushed higher Friday in muted Juneteenth action, with U.S. equity futures firm even as the NYSE and Nasdaq cash markets stayed shut for the federal holiday. NYSE’s calendar shows Juneteenth National Independence Day as a 2026 market holiday, and Nasdaq’s schedule lists June 19 as closed too. Nasdaq 100 futures rose 1.18% to 30,620.50 and S&P 500 futures added 0.62% at 7,554.75 early, as of 05:31 a.m. ET. Dow Jones futures hovered just below flat, slipping 0.01% to 51,958. Futures contracts track expected moves for the indexes but can show thinner trading and less reliable signals during holidays. Markets Insider noted its premarket numbers are indicative and may not always match prices from the exchanges.

Now, many homeowners have to decide whether to file a claim and risk higher premiums, or pay for repairs themselves. The change has sparked concern about rising costs for homeowners facing big bills after storms.
