AppLovin stock slides again even after Evercore calls it ‘dominant’ — what traders are watching next

NEW YORK, Jan 15, 2026, 17:42 ET — After-hours AppLovin Corp shares dipped once more on Thursday, ending the day 1.8% lower at $606.99, following a steep 7.6% tumble on Wednesday. (Yahoo Finance) The recent drop is significant since AppLovin has been behaving like a momentum stock — fast surges followed by steep falls. Just two sessions can inflict serious damage, especially with investors jittery over big-tech valuations and the direction of ad spending this quarter. AppLovin’s stock, which surged roughly 104% in 2025, has hit a rough patch in early 2026. The price action has been volatile recently. (Barron’s)

Oracle stock slides on bondholder lawsuit over AI debt plans as UK defence cloud deal lands

New York, Jan 15, 2026, 5:26 PM EST — After-hours Oracle Corp shares dropped 1.9% Thursday and saw little movement after hours, as investors digested a bondholder lawsuit targeting the company’s debt strategy tied to its AI expansion. (Investing.com) Timing is key as Oracle doubles down on AI-driven cloud growth—a move that demands serious capital.

Lam Research stock rises after hours as TSMC capex signal and analyst upgrades lift chip tools

New York, Jan 15, 2026, 17:24 EST — After-hours Lam Research shares climbed 4.2% to $217.47 in after-hours trading Thursday, buoyed by strength in semiconductor equipment stocks and a flurry of broker upgrades that thrust the company back into the spotlight. The picture shifted quickly after Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co revealed higher spending plans for 2026, a key indicator for chipmaking equipment. CEO C.C. Wei warned of risks despite the bold investment push: “We’re also very nervous about it. If we did not do it carefully, that would be a disaster for TSMC.” (Reuters) For Lam, the stakes are high

Trump vs. Jamie Dimon Over Fed Independence Escalates as IMF and Fitch Warn of Higher Rates

WASHINGTON, Jan 15, 2026, 17:10 EST International Monetary Fund Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva threw her support behind Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell on Thursday, emphasizing that central bank independence remains crucial as the Trump administration applies pressure amid a Justice Department probe into renovation cost overruns. “He is a very good professional, very decent man,” Georgieva said, describing the Fed as “precious” because of the dollar’s key global role. (Reuters) Why it matters now: the Fed controls the benchmark interest rate, which shapes borrowing costs economy-wide—from mortgages and credit cards to corporate loans. It’s meant to operate independently, free from

XRP price slips today as Senate delays crypto bill, Ripple rolls out $150 million LMAX deal

New York, Jan 15, 2026, 17:18 EST — Trading in after-hours. XRP dropped roughly 3.3% to $2.07 late Thursday, having earlier reached $2.14. Bitcoin slid 1.9%, while ether dipped 2.1%, adding pressure on the wider crypto market.

SLV stock slides after-hours as silver price cools from record highs — what traders watch next

New York, January 15, 2026, 17:05 EST — Trading in after-hours. After hitting another record high, silver prices pulled back, dragging down shares of iShares Silver Trust, the ETF that holds silver and trades like a stock, in after-hours trading on Thursday. That’s crucial since silver has morphed into a volatile macro play this January, reacting sharply to swings in the dollar and interest-rate outlooks instead of company news. Those same factors can jolt silver-related funds and miners quickly. Silver straddles two roles: a safe-haven asset and an industrial metal powering electronics and solar panels. The two narratives don’t always
