Oil stocks set for weekend as crude drops on Iran deal talk

Oil stocks set for weekend as crude drops on Iran deal talk

Energy names closed out the week in a tricky spot, with oil sharply lower but the group hanging on. Brent, the global benchmark, dropped 3.37% to $87.33 a barrel by Friday’s settlement. U.S. benchmark WTI fell 3.23% to $84.88, as markets started to consider the odds of a U.S.-Iran deal. Crude’s slump usually weighs on oil producers’ cash flow and share prices, while a higher oil price can help earnings and stocks.

Intel Stock Surges Again as AI Foundry Hopes Challenge Valuation Fears

Intel Corp. shares outperformed the broader market on Friday, closing at $124.57, up 6.5%, while the Nasdaq Composite rose 0.3% and the S&P 500 gained 0.5%.

The Trade Desk Stock Drops After Weak Q2 Outlook: Why TTD Investors Are Worried Now

Trade Desk shares bounce after dispute with Publicis resolves, but challenges remain for TTD

The Trade Desk shares got a lift Friday, up after a new report said Publicis and the ad-tech firm settled their dispute. TTD finished at $19.28, up 2.01% for the day, on 30.63 million shares traded. That's well above its average volume of 20.95 million from Google Finance. Even so, the stock is still sitting near its 52-week low of $18.31 and far off its 52-week high of $91.45. Friday’s move hasn’t changed the broader slide.

NuScale Power Corporation’s SMR shares bounced Friday, recently trading at $10.00, up 4.5% from the prior close, with a market value of about $3.19 billion. The rebound matters because the stock has been trying to stabilize after a sharp 2026 selloff: a Zacks report syndicated by TradingView said Thursday that NuScale had fallen 23% over the past month and 34.5% year to date, reflecting investor concern over timing, dilution and limited current revenue.

Amazon Shares Slip After $17.5 Billion AI Loan Draws Focus to AMZN Cash Flow

Amazon Shares Slip After $17.5 Billion AI Loan, Cash Flow Pressure Before Prime Day

The drop was notable since both the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust and Invesco QQQ Trust traded up, putting more attention on Amazon-specific issues than broader market moves. Stocks are usually up when investors see better earnings or less risk ahead, and head lower when there are doubts about cash flow, margins or price.
