IBM stock slides nearly 2% in year-end session as profit-taking dents Dow

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 3:21 PM ET — Regular session Shares of International Business Machines Corp fell about 1.8% on Wednesday, trading around $296.64 in the afternoon after touching a session low of $295.92. The stock opened near $301.76 and was set for its second straight daily drop as the year winds down.

Rigetti (RGTI) stock slides today as year-end profit-taking weighs on quantum shares

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 3:19 PM ET — Regular session. Shares of Rigetti Computing (RGTI.O) were down 1.7% at $22.03 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, as the quantum-computing name tracked a cautious tone in year-end markets.

Why Super Micro (SMCI) stock is down today: an exec retirement filing meets year-end AI trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:16 ET — Regular session Super Micro Computer, Inc. shares fell 1.7% to $29.15 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, after a regulatory filing showed the AI server maker’s head of operations will retire at year-end. The stock traded between $29.12 and $29.86. The timing matters because Super Micro’s customers care less about buzzwords and more about delivery schedules, power draw and cooling.

Nebius stock dips as insiders flag share sales in SEC filings

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:20 ET — Regular session Nebius Group N.V. shares slipped on Wednesday as investors weighed insider notices to sell stock. The Nasdaq-listed shares were down about 1.9% at $83.59 in afternoon trading. The filings hit during year-end trading, when liquidity is typically thin and moves can be exaggerated.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:50 ET — Regular session Alignment Healthcare, Inc. shares rose about 3.4% to $19.90 in mid-afternoon trading on Wednesday, after earlier touching $19.93 as the stock fluctuated between $18.83 and $19.93.
