Amazon Gets June Prime Day Announcement, Stock Falls

Amazon Gets June Prime Day Announcement, Stock Falls

Amazon.com Inc. slipped 1.81% to $256.52 on Tuesday, with shares losing ground while the wider market pushed higher. The drop came as Amazon locked in a June Prime Day, offering a look at its retail plans before the quarter ends. Prime Day timing is key as the event has grown beyond coupons. Amazon is using it to get shoppers to buy groceries, household items and other repeat goods. The company is still spending big on artificial intelligence to drive automation and its cloud products.
Rivian’s R2 launch pushes RIVN stock higher, Wall Street watching

Rivian’s R2 launch pushes RIVN stock higher, Wall Street watching

Rivian Automotive shares climbed Tuesday afternoon, building on recent gains ahead of the electric-vehicle company’s first R2 deliveries to customers set for next week. Investors also looked to two upcoming appearances from Rivian’s finance chief. The stock rose 2.3% to $17.34, hitting $17.685 earlier, with more than 29 million shares traded. SPDR S&P 500 ETF stayed almost flat, while the Invesco QQQ Trust, seen as a stand-in for big tech and growth stocks, edged up 0.2%.
NuScale Rises Again as Nuclear AI Trade Eyes New Test

NuScale Rises Again as Nuclear AI Trade Eyes New Test

NuScale Power shares climbed 8.6% to $14.00 in early afternoon trading Tuesday. Investors were buying nuclear tech stocks again as power demand from data centers and AI stays in focus. NuScale opened at $12.75 and hit $14.30 at the session high. Volume topped 41 million shares. The company’s market value was close to $4.48 billion. NuScale’s move drew attention since it happened in a normal U.S. session and there wasn’t a new contract disclosure from the company. NuScale’s investor calendar showed management scheduled for the UBS Cleanpower Expo and RBC Capital Markets’ Global Energy, Power & Infrastructure Conference in New York on June 2. Its press-release page listed the last update as the May 7 first-quarter release.
Shake Shack Stock Slides 10% After Guidance Cut: Why SHAK Is Under Pressure Now

Shake Shack Stock Slides 10% After Guidance Cut: Why SHAK Is Under Pressure Now

Shake Shack Inc. shares dropped more than 10% on Tuesday after the burger chain cut its second-quarter and full-year guidance, a fresh hit to a stock already under pressure from weaker restaurant demand and high beef costs. The move matters now because the update came with more than two-thirds of the quarter already complete, giving investors a clearer read on sales and margins than a long-range forecast. Regular trading was under way in New York; NYSE core trading hours run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, and June 2 is not listed among the exchange’s 2026 holidays.
Nu Drops as BofA Calls Sell on Nubank CFO Change

Nu Drops as BofA Calls Sell on Nubank CFO Change

Nu Holdings stock fell Tuesday after BofA Securities cut its rating on the Nubank parent to Underperform, putting the planned CFO transition on center stage for the well-known Latin American fintech. NYSE-listed shares slipped 6.3% to $12.17, after hitting a session low of $11.70. That drop came while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF gained 0.2% and the Invesco QQQ Trust added 0.4% around the same point in the day.

Coherent Corp Stock: BofA’s $400 Call Puts AI Optics Back in Play

Coherent Stock Is Surging Again — Here’s Why Wall Street Is Chasing AI’s Hidden Bottleneck

Coherent Corp. shares jumped about 17% in Tuesday midday trading, putting the photonics and optical-networking supplier back at the center of Wall Street’s AI infrastructure trade. The stock was last quoted at $425.44, up $62.54, after touching $433.12 earlier in the session. The move stood out against a calmer tape. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust, a widely used proxy for the U.S. benchmark index, was up about 0.2%, suggesting the rally was less about the whole market and more about a fresh chase into companies tied to AI data-center buildouts.
Ondas Stock Just Got a Navy Catalyst — Why ONDS Traders Are Watching the Next Move

Ondas Stock Just Got a Navy Catalyst — Why ONDS Traders Are Watching the Next Move

Ondas Inc. shares faced a fresh premarket test on Tuesday after the defense technology company said its World View unit had been selected as the high-altitude balloon provider for a U.S. Navy Southern Command maritime surveillance program. The initial contract is valued at about $4.8 million over three months, Ondas said. The program is aimed at counter-narcotics and illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing missions across the Eastern Pacific and Caribbean. Maritime domain awareness, or MDA, means building a clearer view of activity at sea so authorities can spot threats, vessels or illicit flows earlier.
BigBear.ai Stock Just Had Its Best Week In 8 Months. Now Comes The $5.40 Test

BigBear.ai Stock Just Had Its Best Week In 8 Months. Now Comes The $5.40 Test

BigBear.ai shares eased before Tuesday’s open, pausing after the defense-AI company’s best weekly gain in eight months and a Monday close near a level chart watchers have marked as resistance. The stock closed Monday at $5.34, up 5.95%, and was quoted at $5.28 in premarket trading. The move matters now because BigBear is trying to turn a speculative AI trade into a story about deployed software in security, logistics and government work. That is a harder test than a chart bounce. Investors want proof that new deals can become repeatable revenue.

American Airlines Stock Gets Wall Street Lift, But Traders Aren’t Convinced

American Airlines Stock Gets Wall Street Lift, But Traders Aren’t Convinced

American Airlines Group Inc. shares held lower ahead of Tuesday’s regular Nasdaq open, with the stock last trading at $14.34, off 29 cents from Monday’s close, market data showed. Morgan Stanley bumped its price target, but investors kept selling as they looked at rising fuel costs and American’s drop from a long-standing transport index. U.S. markets were still closed before the bell. Premarket trading saw action ahead of the regular 9:30 a.m. ET open. Nasdaq’s 2026 calendar points to Juneteenth, June 19, as the next full U.S. market holiday.

HPE Stock Jumps in Premarket as Wall Street Raises Estimates on AI Orders

HPE Stock Jumps in Premarket as Wall Street Raises Estimates on AI Orders

Hewlett Packard Enterprise stock jumped at the open Tuesday. The company raised its full-year forecast, saying stronger-than-expected AI infrastructure demand is speeding up growth. The stock was up 28.7% at $60.96 in early trading at 04:13 a.m. Eastern, after ending Monday close to $47. Regular NYSE hours are 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern and stocks in premarket can move a lot once regular trading kicks in.
Abivax Stock Sees Big After-Hours Moves After Trial Result

Abivax Stock Sees Big After-Hours Moves After Trial Result

Abivax shares tumbled in late U.S. trading on Monday, despite the French biotech putting out positive late-stage results for its main ulcerative colitis drug. The American depositary shares were at $86.01 after hours, a drop of 33.7% from their regular close at $129.69, according to Google Finance. Abivax cleared a key clinical hurdle with the results, setting up for a planned U.S. submission. Phase 3 is the last big step in trials before regulators rule on drug approval, usually the final check before sales can begin.
NuScale Stock Price Pops Today as Nuclear Trade Faces Its Contract Test

NuScale Stock Price Pops Today as Nuclear Trade Faces Its Contract Test

NuScale Power shares rose in late New York trading on Monday, outpacing the broader small-cap tape as investors again bid up parts of the advanced nuclear trade even without a fresh company announcement. The stock was last quoted up 3.6% at $13.13, after touching $13.40, on volume of about 37.5 million shares; the SPDR S&P 500 ETF was up 0.3%, while the iShares Russell 2000 ETF was down 0.3%. The move matters because NuScale has become one of the market’s cleaner public bets on small modular reactors, or SMRs — smaller nuclear plants designed around repeatable reactor units rather than one large custom build. The sector stayed in focus after Reuters Events reported last week that the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission was moving ahead with reforms meant to speed licensing for small and microreactors, a push tied to rising power demand from data centers and manufacturing.

Constellation Energy Shares Drop After $3.1 Billion Sale Raises Questions for AI Power Bet

Constellation Energy Shares Drop After $3.1 Billion Sale Raises Questions for AI Power Bet

Constellation Energy shares slid Monday after existing holders set the price on an 11 million-share secondary offering. The block sale added pressure to a key nuclear-power trade on Wall Street that’s linked to artificial intelligence data-center demand. Constellation shares dropped 6.6% to $268.90 late in the day, while the SPDR ETF tracking the S&P 500 edged higher and the Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund slipped 2.7%. Vistra slid 3.5%, NRG Energy was off 3.6%. Power producers took a hit, but Constellation posted the sharper, stock-specific fall.
Stocks Hit Records as Oil Stirs Worry

Stocks Hit Records as Oil Stirs Worry

Stocks in the U.S. finished up Monday, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq close to new highs. Nvidia led tech shares higher, but gains were capped as higher oil prices pressured the rest of the market. S&P 500 rose 0.43% to 7,612.53, Nasdaq Composite gained 0.68% to 27,155.09 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average edged up 0.11% to 51,089.09, according to latest LSEG data published by Reuters. Brent crude moved up 4.25% to $94.99. The 10-year Treasury yield was at 4.469%.
Archer Aviation stock moves up as investors watch for 2026 air-taxi test

Archer Aviation stock moves up as investors watch for 2026 air-taxi test

Archer Aviation shares were up in Monday afternoon trading as the electric air-taxi company stayed on traders’ radar. Investors are weighing the company’s 2026 commercial launch targets against its ongoing high cash burn. Shares last changed hands at $6.87, rising 0.8%. The stock swung from $6.52 to $6.90. About 46.2 million shares traded. Market cap was close to $5.26 billion.
Robinhood Drops After Supreme Court Decision Brings IPO Dispute Back

Robinhood Drops After Supreme Court Decision Brings IPO Dispute Back

Robinhood Markets shares slipped 4.5% to $90.07 by midday Monday, pulling back after last week’s gain. A new Supreme Court move has put questions about the broker’s 2021 IPO filings back on the table. The stock moved in a range of $85.60 to $94.88. Volume was close to 28.3 million shares. Robinhood had just gotten investor focus back with new growth pushes—child investment accounts tied to government, AI tools for trading, and a loosening path in the U.S. for some crypto derivatives. Monday’s legal twist pulled the old meme-stock days back into view.

TSMC Shares Up After Nvidia’s AI PC Push Brings Focus Back to Taiwan Chipmaker

TSMC Shares Up After Nvidia’s AI PC Push Brings Focus Back to Taiwan Chipmaker

TSMC’s U.S. shares picked up on Monday, up about 5.4% to $441.09 in late-morning New York trading after Nvidia’s new AI announcement in Taipei. Investors bought into the chip manufacturer, which builds chips for outside designers, sending its American depositary receipts higher. Nvidia rolled out its new RTX Spark chip Monday, aiming at running AI straight on laptops and desktops. The company called it an effort to “reinvent the PC” with a boost from Microsoft. Reuters said the chip was developed with Taiwan’s MediaTek and is set to hit computers from Dell, HP, Lenovo, Asus, Microsoft Surface, and MSI this fall. Counterpoint Research co-founder Neil Shah told Reuters this could shift the focus from apps to what he called an “Agentic AI personal computer”—hardware where software agents do more for the user.
Barry Diller’s $18 Billion MGM Bid Could Change Who Runs the Strip

Barry Diller’s $18 Billion MGM Bid Could Change Who Runs the Strip

Barry Diller’s People Incorporated offered to buy the MGM Resorts International shares it does not already own for $48.30 apiece in cash, a bid that would take one of Las Vegas’ largest casino operators private and value it at more than $18 billion including debt. The proposal is non-binding, meaning neither side is yet required to complete a deal. The bid matters now because People already owns 26.1% of MGM, and Diller is not just an outside buyer; he is also a director of MGM. The company said the offer is 10.6% above MGM’s most recent closing price and 24.1% above its average trading price over the prior 30 trading days.
American Airlines Faces Monday Moves on Fuel and Dow Exit

American Airlines Faces Monday Moves on Fuel and Dow Exit

American Airlines Group Inc. slipped in U.S. premarket hours Monday, as the stock exited the Dow Jones Transportation Average. That shift hit just as investors faced another signal that fuel prices continue to drive action in airline shares. American shares were at $14.64 ahead of the regular Nasdaq open, off 3 cents. Premarket action, which happens before the main 9:30 a.m. New York trading, tends to be thin and volatile. The U.S. Global Jets ETF added 0.6% premarket, so American’s drop didn’t match the broader sector’s direction.
