Reckitt Benckiser stock dips after RBC downgrade as a big cash-return vote closes 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.

Some investors, anticipating a one-time payout, buy shares to grab the cash and then sell off fast; others prefer to hold back until things quiet down. Reckitt wrapped up

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding shares slide as YZJ Maritime orders 16 vessels, eyes turn to next results

Singapore, Jan 14, 2026, 15:00 SGT — Regular session Shares of Singapore-listed Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) Ltd were down 1.9% at S$3.67 on Wednesday, trimming earlier gains as shipbuilding-linked names turned choppy in afternoon trade. The stock is up about 5% so far this year. (marketscreener.com) The move matters because newbuilding activity is one of the cleanest signals in shipping: it sets yard workload years ahead and can support pricing when order slots tighten. It also cuts the other way fast when freight markets cool or owners struggle to finance deliveries. For Yangzijiang Shipbuilding, which sells capacity years into the future,

Woodside Energy stock climbs after Scarborough milestone — what investors watch next for WDS

CoreWeave stock (CRWV) slips after-hours as CEO bats away Nvidia ‘circular financing’ fears

CoreWeave stock (CRWV) slips after-hours as CEO bats away Nvidia ‘circular financing’ fears

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 19:44 EST — After-hours CoreWeave Inc shares slipped 2.7% to $87.48 in after-hours trading Tuesday, trimming gains that had recently drawn momentum traders back in. This matters since CoreWeave now stands as a rough benchmark for the leveraged AI infrastructure play: fast growth fueled by significant debt. When interest rates move or credit concerns arise, shares tied to large data-center investments tend to swing sharply. CoreWeave purchases Nvidia graphics processing units, or GPUs—chips that power AI system training and operations—and leases out that computing capacity to clients. Some critics doubt these GPUs retain enough value

Ondas Holdings stock rises after-hours after $1 billion offering closes, with dilution and new filings in focus

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 19:25 EST — After-hours Ondas Holdings Inc shares climbed roughly 5.4% to $13.89 in after-hours trading Tuesday, following the company’s announcement of completing a $1 billion stock and warrant offering. The financing matters now because it provides the drone and wireless systems maker with fresh cash for deals and growth, while also loading up on a big batch of warrants that could boost the share count if exercised. The terms have emerged as the key factor shaping near-term trading in the stock. The trade-off is clear: a bigger cash pile on the balance sheet or

Exxon Mobil stock climbs after-hours as Venezuela tug-of-war and oil rally grab attention

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 18:10 EST — After-hours Shares of Exxon Mobil Corporation climbed roughly 2% in after-hours trading Tuesday, driven by investor attention on the company’s stance regarding Venezuela and a recent boost in crude prices. The flare-up matters as Washington’s effort to revive Venezuela’s oil sector could alter long-term supply forecasts and shift the hierarchy among U.S. oil majors. For Exxon, it underscores how political shifts can affect access, contract conditions, and schedules — all factors that drive project economics well before drilling begins. Reuters reports Exxon is still keen on a Venezuela visit and may deploy
