MARA stock jumps 10% as Bitcoin climbs above $90,000 — what to watch before markets reopen

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 05:28 ET — Market closed Shares of bitcoin miner MARA Holdings (MARA) closed up 10.4% at $9.91 on Friday, tracking a rebound in crypto-linked stocks on the first trading day of 2026. Yahoo Finance The move matters because MARA trades as a leveraged proxy for bitcoin. Miners’ revenue is tied to the value of the coins they earn, so the stocks often move more sharply than the token itself. Traders head into the new week focused on U.S. economic releases, capped by Friday’s payrolls report, for clues on interest-rate expectations. “It’s a time to actually

Traders have also been recalibrating their bets on high-growth, high-volatility names after fresh guidance from Federal Reserve officials. Philadelphia Fed President Anna Paulson said on Saturday that further U.S. rate cuts could be some way off as policymakers take stock of inflation and

Palantir stock slides to start 2026 as rate-cut outlook tightens its grip on PLTR

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 05:02 ET — Market closed Palantir Technologies Inc. shares ended Friday down 5.6% at $167.86, and U.S. markets are closed on Sunday. The stock traded between $166.38 and $182.93 in the first session of 2026. The move matters now because Palantir has been treated as a high-growth artificial-intelligence software name, a group that can swing sharply when investors recalibrate expectations for interest rates. Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Anna Paulson said, “I view the current level of the funds rate as still a little restrictive,” in remarks released on Saturday. Reuters Investors face a

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 05:03 ET — Market closed Tesla (TSLA) shares closed Friday down 2.6% at $438.07 after trading between $435.33 and $462.42.

Denison Mines stock jumps after Phoenix uranium project moves toward construction: what’s next for DNN

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:58 ET — Market closed Denison Mines Corp (DNN) shares last closed up about 13% at $3.03 on Friday, their strongest one-day move in months, after the uranium developer flagged fresh progress toward starting construction at its Phoenix project. U.S. markets are shut on Sunday. The catalyst matters because Phoenix is Denison’s flagship and the update puts a near-term spotlight on permitting and spending discipline, two pressure points for pre-production miners. Denison said it is ready to make a final investment decision (FID) — the formal go-ahead to commit major construction capital — and begin

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:51 ET — Market closed Intel Corporation (INTC) shares rose $2.48, or 6.7%, to $39.38 on Friday, after trading between $37.41 and $39.86, as semiconductors powered Wall Street’s first session of 2026. Nvidia added 1.2% and Advanced Micro Devices gained 4.3%. The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index, a benchmark of major chip stocks, climbed 4% as the Dow rose 0.66% and the S&P 500 gained 0.19%, while the Nasdaq finished slightly lower, Reuters reported.

Plug Power stock today: PLUG jumps 13% after analyst upgrade as key vote looms

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:59 ET — Market closed Plug Power Inc shares rose 13.2% to close at $2.23 on Friday, extending a second straight session of gains as trading volume exceeded its 50-day average.

Nvidia stock starts 2026 higher as chipmakers rebound — what investors watch next for NVDA

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:52 ET — Market closed. NVIDIA Corporation shares last rose 1.2% to $188.85 in Friday’s session, outperforming the Nasdaq’s flat finish as chipmakers led an early-2026 bounce. The move matters because Nvidia is a bellwether for the market’s artificial-intelligence trade, and its swings often set the tone for the broader semiconductor complex. Traders are watching whether the rally in chip stocks can hold as markets head into a busy week for tech headlines and U.S. economic data that can shift interest-rate expectations. Other chip-linked names also advanced on Friday. Advanced Micro Devices gained 4.3%, Intel

Ondas stock jumps on rebrand plan, Florida HQ move and fresh SEC filings

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:44 ET — Market closed. Ondas Holdings shares last closed up 12.9% at $11.02 on Friday, after gaining $1.26 from the prior close of $9.76, as traders digested a cluster of corporate and balance-sheet updates. About 136 million shares changed hands, according to Nasdaq data. Nasdaq The late-week rally matters because it comes with a clearer pivot in messaging toward defense and security markets, a theme that has drawn fast-moving retail and momentum money into smaller autonomy names. It also puts near-term attention back on the capital structure. Investors in companies with uneven cash generation

Coca-Cola stock slips to start 2026 as yields climb and key U.S. data looms

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 04:35 ET — Market closed Shares of The Coca-Cola Company ended Friday down 1.1% at $69.12, giving the soft-drink maker a weaker start to 2026 in the first regular U.S. session of the year. The stock traded between $68.98 and $70.03, with about 12.2 million shares changing hands. PepsiCo fell 0.9% and Keurig Dr Pepper slid 1.0%. The move mattered because Coca-Cola often sits in the “defensive” bucket — stocks investors tend to lean on for steadier demand and dividends when growth looks uncertain. Those shares can lag when money rotates into more economically sensitive
