Abercrombie & Fitch stock: what comes next after the 18% plunge on outlook update

Abercrombie & Fitch stock: what comes next after the 18% plunge on outlook update

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 04:45 EST — Premarket Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF.N) held steady near $102.78 in premarket Tuesday, following a sharp 17.7% drop the previous day. The stock closed Monday at $102.78, with roughly 6.6 million shares exchanged, after the company trimmed some of its guidance. (Yahoo Finance) This shift matters today because the update didn’t signal falling demand — it flagged tighter economics. A small cut to sales growth, weaker margin forecasts, and ramped-up spending can easily unsettle a retail stock riding high on expectations. The news came as retailers gathered with investors at the ICR Conference,

ON Semiconductor stock slides before the open on CPI day: what investors watch next

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 04:33 EST — Premarket ON Semiconductor Corporation’s shares edged down 0.3% in early premarket Tuesday, following a 5.5% tumble in the previous session. The chipmaker is off to a sluggish start this week, with the stock last seen trading at $58.59 in premarket action.

NIO stock steadies in premarket after Europe pledge as EU lays out tariff workaround

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 04:34 EST — Premarket Nio Inc shares slipped slightly in early premarket Tuesday after the Chinese EV maker vowed to push forward with its European operations. This comes as Brussels proposed a potential path for China-made electric vehicles to sidestep EU tariffs. The U.S.-listed ADR dipped about 0.2% to $4.84, following a 4.5% gain on Monday when it closed at $4.85. (Reuters) The European policy shift matters for Nio because access to Europe has become a question of pricing and margins, not just sales.

Toronto, January 13, 2026, 04:20 (EST) Private real estate funds with roughly C$30 billion ($21.7 billion) tied up by Canadians have halted withdrawals, trapping investors amid the housing slump, Bloomberg reported Monday. Vancouver property manager Andre El-Baba called it “terrible” after Romspen blocked redemptions. Adviser Jamie Grundman noted, “This stuff spreads like wildfire,” while economist Diana Petramala warned, “It drags on for years.” Wealth manager Darren Sissons added, “Real estate is not the holy grail,” and professor Jim Clayton described the situation as a “house of cards.” https://www.fa-mag.com/news/canadians-are-furious-after-real-estate-funds-lock-up-their-money-85456.html (fa-mag.com) The lockups hit more than just frustrated clients—they’re a key source

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 04:33 EST — Premarket Shares of Alphabet (GOOGL.O) climbed roughly 0.7% in premarket trading Tuesday, hitting $334.02.
