Archer Aviation stock (ACHR) in focus: what traders watch before Monday’s open

New York, January 11, 2026, 18:44 EST — Market closed Archer Aviation Inc (NYSE: ACHR) shares closed at $8.81 on Friday, up 1.2%, after trading between $8.56 and $8.98 on volume of about 60.2 million shares. The stock was up 8.4% from a week earlier, Fintel data showed. (Fintel) With U.S. markets shut for the weekend, the question into Monday is whether the latest run in advanced-air-mobility stocks holds up, or fades once traders get back to earnings, rates and risk limits. These names can gap on thin news. Investors are looking for signs Archer can turn engineering milestones into
Tesla stock heads into Monday after Friday bounce as robotaxi talk and earnings loom

Tesla stock heads into Monday after Friday bounce as robotaxi talk and earnings loom

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:40 (ET) — Market closed. Tesla shares ended Friday higher, closing up about 2.1% at $445.01. The stock traded between $430.39 and $449.05 and changed hands about 67.2 million times. (Yahoo Finance) The electric-vehicle maker’s stock is still trading on two clocks. There is demand for cars right now, and there is the longer bet on autonomy and robotics that keeps pulling money back in. That split matters going into Monday because it makes TSLA jumpy. Macro data can move it, but so can any stray headline on “driverless” tech, even when it’s not Tesla’s.
Ford stock slips Friday — the two catalysts that could move it next

Ford stock slips Friday — the two catalysts that could move it next

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:39 EST — Market closed. Ford Motor Co shares (NYSE: F) ended Friday down 1.4% at $14.20, as traders gave back some gains after a choppy, headline-driven week. U.S. markets are shut on Sunday and reopen on Monday. The pullback still leaves Ford stock near the top of its recent range after investors latched onto a shift in the company’s EV spending and a push toward paid software features. The near-term test is whether that story can hold up when the tape turns risk-off. This matters now because rates and car demand move together: most
Applied Digital stock jumped 18% Friday — what could move APLD next week

Applied Digital stock jumped 18% Friday — what could move APLD next week

New York, January 11, 2026, 18:30 (ET) — The market has closed. Applied Digital (APLD) shares surged roughly 18% on Friday, with investors rushing into the data-center builder ahead of the weekend. The stock finished at $37.68, swinging between $31.83 and $38.30 on heavy volume near 86 million shares. This shift is crucial because the AI expansion has morphed into a battle over power and physical infrastructure, not just semiconductor supply. Firms capable of providing megawatts — the essential power units for data centers — are catching the market’s attention. Applied Digital occupies that space. It sells high-performance computing, or
Ondas Holdings (ONDS) stock: what to know before Monday after $1 billion share-and-warrant deal

Ondas Holdings (ONDS) stock: what to know before Monday after $1 billion share-and-warrant deal

New York, January 11, 2026, 18:31 EST — Market closed. Ondas Holdings Inc shares closed lower Friday following the announcement of a $1 billion stock and warrant offering. The deal was set at a premium to Thursday’s close, a move that could quickly dilute shares in this small-cap stock. (ir.ondas.com) The terms are straightforward. Ondas is offloading 19 million shares plus pre-funded warrants for as many as 41.79 million shares. Each comes bundled with common warrants covering an additional 121.58 million shares, according to a prospectus supplement filed Friday. The timing is crucial since the deal is set to close

Plug Power stock slid on a TD Cowen downgrade — what traders watch before Monday

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:28 EST — Market closed. Shares of Plug Power Inc (PLUG.O) fell 5.6%, ending Friday at $2.19. With U.S. markets closed over the weekend, the stock remains volatile near the $2 level. (Plug Power) TD Cowen’s Jeffrey Osborne downgraded the hydrogen firm from “Buy” to “Hold,” slashing his price target from $4 to $2, according to StreetInsider.com. Timing is key as Plug gears up for a special shareholder meeting on Jan. 29 to vote on charter amendments, including doubling its authorized common shares—the legal cap on how many shares the company can issue. Plug says
Rocket Companies (RKT) stock jumps nearly 10% on Trump mortgage-bond order; CPI looms next

Rocket Companies (RKT) stock jumps nearly 10% on Trump mortgage-bond order; CPI looms next

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:32 EST — Market closed Shares of Rocket Companies surged nearly 10% Friday following President Donald Trump’s announcement that he ordered $200 billion in mortgage-bond purchases, a move investors interpreted as aiming to lower mortgage rates. U.S. markets were closed Sunday, putting the spotlight on upcoming moves: will the administration and housing agencies provide more clarity? And will bond markets continue pushing rates favorable enough to support mortgage demand? Rocket finished Friday at $23.29, climbing $2.05, or 9.65%, on roughly 73.3 million shares changing hands. (Nasdaq) The timing couldn’t be more crucial. Rocket’s mortgage arm
Intel stock jumps 11% after Trump meeting comment — what to watch for INTC before earnings

Intel stock jumps 11% after Trump meeting comment — what to watch for INTC before earnings

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:14 EST — Market closed. Intel Corp shares (INTC.O) last closed up 10.7% at $45.55 on Friday, after trading as high as $45.73 on unusually heavy volume. The rally helped lift the PHLX semiconductor index (.SOX) 2.7% to a record high. (Reuters) That jump matters now because it lands just ahead of Intel’s next earnings report, when investors will want less talk and more proof that the turnaround is showing up in orders, margins and execution. Intel is due to report fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results after the close on Jan. 22. (Newsroom) Friday’s push
UiPath stock: CEO share sale filing puts PATH in focus ahead of a busy week

UiPath stock: CEO share sale filing puts PATH in focus ahead of a busy week

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:13 EST — The market has closed. Shares of UiPath Inc are set to open Monday in the U.S. following a regulatory filing revealing CEO Daniel Dines sold stock on Friday. Such insider selling often attracts extra scrutiny when there’s little else in the news. The timing is crucial since UiPath continues to behave like a sentiment-driven stock. Even minor cues—insider trades, comments at conferences, or the mood on demand—can sway its price more than warranted. Two key events next week will put rate-sensitive software stocks to the test: the U.S. inflation report and fresh
Opendoor stock jumps on Trump’s $200 billion mortgage-bond plan — what to know before Monday

Opendoor stock jumps on Trump’s $200 billion mortgage-bond plan — what to know before Monday

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:16 EST — Market closed U.S. markets are shut for the weekend, but Opendoor Technologies Inc (OPEN.O) is coming off a strong Friday. Shares finished up 13.2% at $7.29, on volume around 167 million. The stock swung between $6.82 and $7.91 during the session. Opendoor’s approach is straightforward but fragile. It buys homes, holds inventory, and aims to flip them fast. Rising mortgage rates, however, can stall that turnover almost immediately. Even slight changes in borrowing costs impact demand, pricing, and financing expenses for the homes it owns. Housing-related stocks surged Friday after President Donald

IREN Limited stock: what Monday looks like after a $50 swing and bitcoin back near $90,000

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 18:13 EST — Market closed IREN Limited shares ended Friday up 0.7% at $46.03, swinging between a high near $50 and a low of $45.52 amid heavy volume in a choppy session. With U.S. markets closed Sunday, the stock is poised for a new test when trading picks up again Monday. The move is significant since IREN is caught up in two high-velocity trades simultaneously: bitcoin-linked miners and the expansion of power-hungry data centers for artificial intelligence. When either trend pivots, the stock reacts sharply—and not always predictably. That’s the scene as the week kicks
