StubHub stock (STUB) hit by IPO disclosure lawsuit as Jan. 23 deadline nears

StubHub stock (STUB) hit by IPO disclosure lawsuit as Jan. 23 deadline nears

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 12:50 EST StubHub Holdings shares dropped roughly 1.8% Wednesday after shareholder law firms pushed investors to step forward for lead-plaintiff status by Jan. 23. The move relates to a securities class action linked to the ticket marketplace’s September IPO. https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/stubhub-stub-facing-with-securities-lawsuit-over-ipo-disclosures—-hagens-berman-302661277.html The deadline is crucial since it often decides who controls the case and selects legal counsel. For StubHub, it falls less than five months after the company’s IPO, with its stock still deep in the red. The lawsuit focuses on free cash flow, which measures cash remaining after operating expenses and capital expenditures. According to

Petrobras stock pops as CEO flags 1 million bpd at Tupi again — here’s what’s next

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 12:13 EST — Regular session Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. – Petrobras’ U.S.-listed shares (PBR) rose about 3.4% on Wednesday, trading near $12.72 after Chief Executive Magda Chambriard said the company has been producing about 1 million barrels per day (bpd) at its offshore Tupi field since Friday. “It is the rescue of a symbol for Brazil,” she told Reuters. (Baird Maritime / Work Boat World) The update matters because Petrobras investors watch production almost as closely as oil prices: a steadier run-rate at a mature, high-volume field can swing expectations for cash generation and, by extension,

Erasca stock jumps 10% as Wall Street lifts targets to $11 on ERAS-0015 data

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 12:38 PM ET — Regular session Shares of Erasca Inc jumped roughly 10% Wednesday, pushing higher after a string of price-target upgrades fueled by early trial results. The clinical-stage cancer drugmaker’s stock hit $8.29, up 10.5%. The significance lies in Erasca having no approved products. In early-stage biotech, just a few signs of tumor shrinkage can quickly shift expectations—especially in a high-profile target like RAS, a mutation family that’s been notoriously tough to tackle. The rally has traders caught off guard. With the next solid data still months off, the stock’s already moving as if

Full Truck Alliance (YMM) stock slides on JPMorgan downgrade as investors look to next earnings

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 12:07 ET — Regular session Full Truck Alliance Co. Ltd shares slid on Wednesday, extending recent weakness after JPMorgan cut its rating on the U.S.-listed Chinese freight platform. The stock was down about 2.8% at $9.81. The downgrade matters now because the stock has been leaning on “what’s next” — investors want clearer signs that newer initiatives can lift growth and margins, not just hold the line. Without that, analyst calls can move the tape more than usual. JPMorgan’s note took a blunt view on near-term triggers. It said the stock’s risk/reward “has shifted meaningfully”

This move is crucial as investors demand evidence that Pfizer can develop fresh growth drivers ahead of a tough run of patent expirations. Obesity remains one of the few treatment areas attracting significant investment and rapid uptake, though competition is already fierce. At this week’s J.P.
