Super Micro Computer stock steadies as Goldman starts SMCI at “sell,” flags margin squeeze

Super Micro Computer stock steadies as Goldman starts SMCI at “sell,” flags margin squeeze

New York, January 14, 2026, 10:08 ET — During the regular session Super Micro Computer shares hovered near $28.6 Wednesday morning, barely moving after Goldman Sachs kicked off coverage with a “sell” rating and pegged a $26 price target. (site.financialmodelingprep.com) This call is crucial since Super Micro now stands as a key indicator for the AI-server expansion — the debate has moved past whether demand is there, focusing instead on the profit margin the company can hold on every system it delivers. Wall Street is bracing for a sizable revenue jump in the company’s upcoming results. In its last update

Robert Half stock rebounds as a new hiring survey hits and bulls talk a 2026 turn

New York, January 14, 2026, 10:26 EST Robert Half (RHI) shares rose about 3% to $28.70 in morning trading on Wednesday, drawing fresh attention after a Seeking Alpha column pitched the staffing firm as an “underpriced cyclical recovery play.” The author put a fair value of $49 a share on a discounted cash-flow model — a method that estimates future cash and discounts it back to today — and argued the consulting arm, Protiviti, is helping cushion a soft staffing market. (Seeking Alpha) The timing matters because staffing names tend to move early in the hiring cycle, and investors are

Gelteq Limited stock jumps in premarket after CBD gel study; what’s next for GELS

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 08:42 AM EST — Premarket Gelteq Limited shares surged roughly 48% to $1.23 in premarket action Wednesday, following a 6.4% gain at Tuesday’s close. (StockAnalysis) The Nasdaq-listed biotech revealed that a recent preclinical study demonstrated its ingestible gel delivery platform boosts cannabidiol (CBD) absorption over an FDA-approved oil-based option. Gelteq also indicated these findings might accelerate plans for a medicinal cannabis launch in Australia. (Gelteq Limited) This is significant as the company relies on Australia’s Special Access Scheme, which lets health practitioners obtain “unapproved” therapeutic goods for individual patients via specific channels.

Ondas stock jumps in premarket after $1 billion ONDS offering closes — what to watch next

NEW YORK, January 14, 2026, 08:29 (EST) — Premarket update Ondas Holdings Inc shares jumped 5.4% to $13.89 in premarket Wednesday following news that the company has completed a roughly $1 billion share-and-warrant sale to an institutional investor. The deal is significant because it leaves a small-cap defense and industrial tech supplier with an unusually large cash reserve, just as investors demand clearer routes from product hype to actual revenue and cash flow. The announcement reignites the immediate question for ONDS: how quickly Ondas puts the proceeds to work, and if that investment drives enough growth to counterbalance the dilution

Copenhagen, January 14, 2026, 13:36 CET — Regular session ROCKWOOL A/S shares bounced back moderately on Wednesday following a steep drop the previous day linked to concerns over the company’s Russian holdings. By 13:36 CET, the B shares had risen roughly 1.7% to 209 Danish crowns. (Investing.com) The significance lies beyond headline risk. Rockwool plans to strip the Russian division from its books and absorb a write-down, leaving investors to assess how much of the earnings flow has vanished permanently. Rockwool revealed that a Russian presidential decree has placed its Russian subsidiary under external management, stripping the group of control

NEW YORK, January 14, 2026, 05:22 EST — Premarket TryHard Holdings Limited shares dropped 5.5% to $52.00 in early premarket Wednesday, retreating from a strong rally sparked by company news the previous day. (Investing.com) The sharp turnaround is significant since TryHard remains a fresh name on the U.S. listings and has reacted sharply to sparse news. Traders are scrambling to figure out if Tuesday’s surge signals a lasting re-rating or just a short-lived squeeze that will fade once markets open. Two corporate moves are shaping the tape: a board-approved share buyback program and a proposed entertainment investment fund based in

London, Jan 14, 2026, 08:46 GMT — Regular session Reckitt Benckiser Group Plc saw its shares drop nearly 0.8% in early London trade Wednesday following RBC Capital Markets’ downgrade to “sector perform” from “outperform.” The firm also cut its price target to 6,200 pence. Shares hovered near 6,140 pence. (London South East) This is crucial now as Reckitt enters a phase of corporate moves that could distort typical share price signals.
