Ford stock today: Why shares are holding near a 52-week high before the bell

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 09:27 EST — Premarket Ford Motor (F.N) shares edged lower in premarket trading on Friday, hovering near a 52-week peak after Thursday’s jump. The stock was down 0.2% at $14.37. It rose 4.8% on Thursday and touched $14.50.

Nvidia stock dips before the open as China H200 payment demands take center stage

New York, January 9, 2026, 09:21 EST — Premarket Nvidia (NVDA) stock fell 2.1% to $185.04 in premarket trading on Friday, down about $4 from its prior close. The drop followed a Reuters report that Nvidia is requiring full upfront payment from Chinese customers seeking its H200 artificial intelligence chips, a tougher stance it is using to hedge against uncertainty over Beijing’s approval of the shipments. Chinese officials have also asked some tech companies to pause H200 orders while regulators weigh conditions that could tie Nvidia purchases to buying domestically made chips, the report said. CEO Jensen Huang said this

PBF Energy stock stays hot after analyst upgrades flag West Coast fuel squeeze

PBF Energy stock stays hot after analyst upgrades flag West Coast fuel squeeze

NEW YORK, January 9, 2026, 09:28 EST — Premarket PBF Energy Inc shares were up 0.4% at $32.27 in premarket trade on Friday, after climbing 13.9% on Thursday. The refiner’s stock is still well below its 52-week high of $41.47, despite the latest pop. (Barchart) Why it matters now: West Coast fuel markets have tightened as outages drag on and capacity shrinks, pushing price gaps wider and forcing traders to look overseas for barrels. That backdrop matters for PBF because a big slice of its system sits on the U.S. West Coast. Analysts have started to lean into that squeeze.

Neogen stock steadies near $10 after 32% surge on raised outlook; next catalyst is Jan. 14

New York, January 9, 2026, 09:22 EST — Premarket Neogen Corp shares hovered near $9.74 in premarket trade on Friday, little changed after a sharp rally a day earlier. The stock jumped 31.6% on Thursday to close at $9.71. The move puts Neogen back on traders’ screens after a long stretch where the company’s story was more about fixes than growth. At this price, the market is not paying for patience. Chief Executive Mike Nassif said the company has started “the first phase” of a strategic transformation and is trying to stabilize its core business as the industry faces “macro

Rivian stock slips after 19,641-vehicle recall as jobs data and VW tie-up hit tape

New York, January 9, 2026, 09:31 ET — Regular session Rivian Automotive, Inc. shares were down about 0.9% at $19.89 in early trade on Friday after U.S. safety regulators said the company is recalling 19,641 electric vehicles over an improperly reassembled rear toe link, a part of the rear suspension. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said Rivian will replace the rear toe-link bolts free of charge and cited one crash with minor injuries. (reuters.com) The recall lands on a company still trying to keep a lid on costs while it pushes volume. In 2025, Rivian produced 42,284 vehicles and

D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) stock slips premarket as $550 million Quantum Circuits deal spotlights dilution

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 09:05 EST — Premarket D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS) shares slid about 3.1% to $29.28 in premarket trading on Friday as investors digested the company’s agreement to buy Quantum Circuits in a $550 million cash-and-stock deal. The stock component will be based on a 10-day volume-weighted average price, with a collar of $22.30 to $39.03 per share, and the deal can be terminated if it isn’t completed by April 6, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The deal is notable because it takes D-Wave further into gate-model quantum computing, the “circuit” approach

B2Gold stock holds near $4.50 before the open as a soft U.S. jobs print keeps gold in focus

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 09:04 EST — Premarket B2Gold Corp shares were at $4.50 in early trading on Friday, about 2% above the prior close. That matters because the latest U.S. jobs report landed on traders’ screens right before the opening bell. Nonfarm payrolls — a monthly count of U.S. jobs excluding agriculture — rose by 50,000 in December, and the unemployment rate dipped to 4.4%, reinforcing expectations the Federal Reserve will likely hold rates steady at its next meeting.

Apple stock slips before the bell as Alphabet leapfrogs it in value and Apple Card shift stays in focus

New York, January 9, 2026, 08:35 EST — Premarket Apple (AAPL.O) was down 0.5% at $259.04 in premarket trade on Friday, after ending Thursday’s session at $260.37. Apple’s size is the point. By market capitalization — the share price times shares outstanding — it remains one of those stocks that can tug the Nasdaq around on a quiet morning. This is no quiet morning. Traders are parsing fresh U.S. labor-market signals and awaiting a Supreme Court ruling linked to President Donald Trump’s tariffs, either of which could jolt rate bets that matter for big tech.

Premarket trading — before the regular New York session opens — can be thinner than daytime trade, according to Public.

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 08:20 EST — Premarket Vale S.A.’s U.S.-listed shares were down 1.3% in premarket trade on Friday at $14.07, after Scotiabank cut the Brazilian miner to “Sector Perform” — a neutral call — and warned that rising supply could cool iron ore prices. “We project the benchmark iron ore price to decline to US$90.00/t in 2H26,” analyst Alfonso Salazar wrote, even as he lifted his price target for Vale to $15 from $14.

(Public) Investors are trying to get a clearer read on what 2026 demand will look like for U.S. carriers — and what it will take to keep customers from drifting. Free perks can help fill seats, but they can also eat into margins.
