TeraWulf stock in focus after KBW upgrade, $1.3B Texas data-center debt deal

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 04:18 ET — Market closed Shares of Nasdaq-listed TeraWulf Inc rose nearly 3% in the last U.S. session after Keefe, Bruyette & Woods upgraded the company and more than doubled its price target, keeping its pivot beyond bitcoin mining in focus. The stock ended Wednesday at $11.49, after ranging between $11.07 and $11.88 on volume of about 19.4 million shares.

INBS stock whipsaws after Intelligent Bio Solutions lines up $10 million funding

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 03:10 ET — Market closed Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc said late Wednesday it will raise about $10 million in a private placement, sending its shares lower in after-hours trading after a sharp rally earlier in the session.

Why FICO Stock Is Sliding Today: Fair Isaac Drops in Thin Year-End Trading

Why FICO Stock Is Sliding Today: Fair Isaac Drops in Thin Year-End Trading

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:39 ET — Regular session. Shares of Fair Isaac Corp (FICO) fell 3.8% to $1,680.01 on Wednesday afternoon, extending a year-end slide for the credit-scoring and analytics firm. The drop matters now because trading has thinned into the final session of the year, when portfolio rebalancing and tax-driven selling can move single stocks quickly. Liquidity — the ability to buy and sell without pushing prices sharply — is typically at its weakest around holiday weeks.

Ford stock today: F slips in thin year-end session as traders eye insider filing and Feb. 10 earnings

The stock has ranged from $13.15 to $13.24, with about 16.5 million shares traded.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:30 ET — Regular session Sunrun Inc. shares fell 3.8% to $18.37 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, extending a pullback in rate-sensitive solar names on the final session of the year. The Nasdaq-listed stock opened at $19.06 and traded between $18.34 and $19.20.
