AMC Stock Rises as Summer Box Office Set to Test Theater Chain

AMC Stock Rises as Summer Box Office Set to Test Theater Chain

AMC Entertainment Holdings shares finished up 9.5% Friday at $1.73, logging their biggest gain of the holiday-shortened week. Volume picked up too, with 39.4 million shares traded, nearly double Thursday’s 19.2 million. AMC closed near the upper end of its $1.55-to-$1.79 session range. The stock is still far from its 52-week high at $3.60. U.S. markets were closed Monday for Memorial Day. Why it matters: AMC is seeing a summer box-office boost, but the stock is still behaving like a levered turnaround play. The company needs weekend crowds to deliver hard cash, higher concessions, and cut into its debt, not just fill seats.

NIO Shares React After ES9 Launch, China EV Sector Still in Play

NIO Shares React After ES9 Launch, China EV Sector Still in Play

NIO Inc’s ADRs gained 1.6% to $5.64 Friday afternoon. The Chinese EV maker launched its ES9 flagship SUV but the outlook for China’s auto market remains tough. NIO’s U.S.-listed shares moved between $5.375 and $5.655. Volume was above 30.5 million shares. NIO’s ES9 gain is key, since it’s the automaker’s closest shot to see if a high-end EV SUV can push both volume and margins up. NIO launched the six-seater on May 27 and said China deliveries start May 28. The Executive Premium Edition starts at 498,000 yuan, or 390,000 yuan if buyers go with Battery-as-a-Service, which splits out the battery for a subscription.

Costco Wholesale’s Tariff Refund Fight Just Got Harder as Shoppers Seek Payback

Costco Shares Fall; High Sales, Low Gas Prices Don’t Lift Stock

Costco Wholesale shares fell Friday, dropping 4.6% to $948.95 in late-morning trading. The retailer topped fiscal third-quarter sales forecasts but that wasn’t enough to hold up a stock that investors had bid up with high expectations. The decline came as the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust edged higher. That’s an issue for Costco, which is still at about 49 times earnings, based on the latest P/E ratio. That kind of valuation doesn’t leave much space for anything but good news. The price-to-earnings ratio takes the share price and divides it by earnings per share. The higher the number, the more investors are betting on future growth.

Dow closes outperformed by S&P 500, Nasdaq after bell

Dow Jones Update: Record Run Faces Key Test Next Week

Dow Jones climbed late Friday morning, up 243.70 points, or 0.48%, to 50,912.67 as buyers backed big U.S. names linked to artificial intelligence and weighed signals that Middle East tensions could cool. The S&P 500 moved 0.27% higher and the Nasdaq was up 0.22%, LSEG data showed, as reported by Reuters, which noted that quotes were delayed at least 15 minutes. Stocks kept rising into the end of May. Reuters said Friday saw all three big U.S. indexes hit intraday highs, heading for gains for both the week and month, as tech shares climbed and headlines pointed to a Washington-Tehran ceasefire extension that still needed President Donald Trump’s signoff.

Arm stock jumps as traders look at AI chip potential and $360 call

Arm stock jumps as traders look at AI chip potential and $360 call

Arm Holdings’ U.S. shares move toward Friday’s Nasdaq trading after the chip designer soared 10.8% Thursday, hitting a new record as investors piled into AI server names again. Arm is getting new attention as the market shifts from seeing it as just a smartphone-chip royalty play. Investors are putting more value on Arm’s position in CPUs, the main chips that do general computing. That’s as AI goes further than chatbots and powers “agentic” tools that don’t need as much human input.

AST SpaceMobile climbs this week; SpaceX connection remains

AST SpaceMobile hit by Blue Origin failure, SpaceX IPO chatter

AST SpaceMobile and other space stocks dropped early Friday, after Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket blew up on a Florida launchpad. The move halted a rally that had pushed some smaller names to new 52-week highs just a day before. Investors are piling into public space stocks before SpaceX’s expected IPO, a debut that could set records. The trade has lifted names like AST SpaceMobile, Rocket Lab, Redwire and Intuitive Machines. Many of these firms still need frequent launches, government deals and big spending to keep moving.

Big Funds Boost GM Holdings, But Filings Show the Details

Big Funds Boost GM Holdings, But Filings Show the Details

GM picked up interest from big investors on Friday after MarketBeat said National Pension Service and Geode Capital Management bought GM stock in the fourth quarter. This comes after an earlier report this week that Allstate upped its stake too. The data is for last quarter, not current buying. GM raised its 2026 core profit outlook last quarter and kept North America margins over 10%. That comes as investors look at tariffs, higher costs, and a slower electric vehicle rollout. Timing matters now.
