BHP share price climbs as record copper keeps miners in focus ahead of Jan 20 update

Sydney, Jan 7, 2026, 16:55 AEDT — Market closed BHP Group Ltd (ASX:BHP) shares ended 1.02% higher at A$47.70 on Wednesday, outpacing a modest 0.15% rise in the S&P/ASX 200 as heavyweight miners tracked firm commodity prices. Rio Tinto gained 1.62%, while Fortescue Metals edged down 0.18%. The move leaves BHP near its 52-week high as traders weigh whether the recent lift in iron ore and copper can carry into the company’s next round of updates.

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:54 EST — Regular session Shares of Bitmine Immersion Technologies Inc (BMNR) fell 2.1% to $32.65 in afternoon trade on Tuesday, after swinging between $31.41 and $34.13 on volume of about 34 million shares.

Kyivstar (KYIV) stock slides on Nasdaq as Ukraine telecom bucks market gains

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:45 EST — Regular session Kyivstar Group Ltd (KYIV) shares slid 4.4% on Tuesday, bucking a broader rise in U.S. equities. The stock was down about 60 cents at $12.91 in mid-afternoon trade after touching $12.63, while the S&P 500 proxy SPY was up about 0.6%. The move matters because Kyivstar remains a thinly traded, Ukraine-linked listing that can swing sharply on positioning and risk appetite. With few pure Ukraine plays in U.S. markets, investors often treat KYIV as a bellwether for sentiment on the country’s economy and operating risks. Kyivstar listed on Nasdaq in

Roblox stock drops as outage reports, insider sale and TD Cowen cut put engagement in focus

Roblox stock drops as outage reports, insider sale and TD Cowen cut put engagement in focus

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 15:51 EST — Regular session Roblox Corp shares fell about 5.6% to $76.47 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, sliding as low as $75 after a mix of outage reports, insider selling disclosures and a bearish broker note kept the focus on user engagement heading into the next results. The pullback matters now because Roblox’s valuation hinges on sustained time spent on its platform and the pace at which it turns that attention into bookings and advertising revenue. Any sign that engagement is cooling into the new year can quickly reset expectations for the quarter. TD

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:27 (ET) — Regular session Nasdaq-listed Travere Therapeutics shares fell 5.3% to $36.09 in afternoon trading on Tuesday as investors looked toward next week’s U.S. FDA decision deadline on expanding its kidney drug Filspari (sparsentan) into focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. The FDA’s Prescription Drug User Fee Act, or PDUFA, target action date is Jan. 13, and the stock has ranged from $34.88 to $39.16 in the session.

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:30 EST — Regular session Shares of MARA Holdings fell 1.4% to $10.45 in afternoon trade on Tuesday as bitcoin slid about 2.3%, pulling back from an early-year rebound in the token. The stock has traded between $9.97 and $10.68 so far in the session, with the $10 mark back in focus as a near-term pivot for traders. The move matters now because bitcoin miners such as MARA often trade as a high-volatility proxy for the cryptocurrency, amplifying swings in sentiment around crypto prices and regulation.

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 15:31 EST — Regular session Shares of Liquidia Corp (LQDA) fell 6.2% to $30.17 in afternoon trading on Tuesday after Needham removed the stock from its 2026 “Conviction List,” a report said. The shares hit a session low of $29.47, down from Monday’s close of $32.15. The decline stood out against a firmer biotech backdrop.

New York, January 6, 2026, 15:12 EST — Regular session Shares of Bitdeer Technologies Group fell 4.6% to $11.91 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, extending choppy moves for the bitcoin miner after a sharp rise in the prior session. The stock tracked a dip in bitcoin, which was down about 2.2% at around $92,297. Miners often move more than the cryptocurrency because their revenues and margins can swing with token prices and network conditions.

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 3:24 PM EST — Regular session Shares of TeraWulf Inc (WULF.O) fell 2.2% to $13.32 in late afternoon trading on Tuesday, tracking a broader dip in bitcoin that weighed on some crypto-linked stocks. The move matters now because TeraWulf trades as a high-beta proxy for crypto prices and risk appetite, meaning small shifts in bitcoin can drive outsized swings in related equities.

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 15:15 EST — Regular session Johnson Controls International (JCI) fell 5.5% to $114.79 in afternoon trading on Tuesday after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said the chipmaker’s next-generation Vera Rubin platform could sharply reduce cooling needs in data centers and that “no water chillers are necessary for data centres.” The stock has traded between $108.41 and $120.39, and other heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) names also weakened.
