Macquarie shares buck weak ASX as investors eye Qube deadline and May results

Sydney, January 6, 2026, 17:18 (AEDT) — Market closed. Macquarie Group shares ended Tuesday up 1.68% at A$206.76, outperforming a broader market that finished lower. Investing.com Australia The gain mattered because it came as the benchmark S&P/ASX 200 slipped 0.52%, underscoring selective buying in the financials-heavy tape after the holiday lull. Investing.com Australia With no fresh company filing in the past two days, traders pointed to positioning and catalyst-watching rather than headline-driven flow, as investors return to desks and reset risk into January. Macquarie remains a bellwether for sentiment toward investment banks and asset managers in Australia, with earnings still

Marvell (MRVL) stock lifts on Melius “buy” call, with CES CEO appearance next

New York, January 5, 2026, 20:48 (EST) — Market closed Marvell Technology, Inc. shares rose on Monday after Melius Research upgraded the chipmaker to “buy” and set a $135 price target, Barron’s reported.

Lumentum (LITE) stock drops 7.5% as CAO succession disclosed and Feb. 3 earnings date set

New York, January 5, 2026, 19:03 EST — After-hours Shares of Lumentum Holdings Inc. slid 7.5% to $357.05 on Monday. The stock ranged from $345 to $394.48 and last traded near $357 in after-hours trading, the period after the 4 p.m. close.

Netflix stock (NFLX) holds steady after hours as CFRA downgrade spotlights Warner deal risk

Netflix stock (NFLX) holds steady after hours as CFRA downgrade spotlights Warner deal risk

New York, January 5, 2026, 18:05 (EST) — After-hours Netflix, Inc. shares were little changed in after-hours trading on Monday after CFRA downgraded the stock, putting the spotlight back on risks tied to the company’s pursuit of Warner Bros. Discovery. TipRanks The timing matters because the market is still trying to price a potential step-change in Netflix’s balance sheet and strategy. A drawn-out review or costlier financing can hang over a stock even if the core business holds up. That focus sharpens with Netflix due to report fourth-quarter results on Jan. 20, when investors expect fresh detail on the business

Exxon stock rises after-hours on Venezuela oil pivot; what XOM investors watch next

New York, January 5, 2026, 17:46 EST — After-hours Exxon Mobil Corp shares were up 2.2% at $125.36 in after-hours trading on Monday, after President Donald Trump said the United States would take control of Venezuela and pursue access to the OPEC member’s oil reserves. Reuters The move matters because it drags a long-dormant issue back into U.S. energy valuations: compensation claims tied to Venezuela’s nationalisation of foreign oil assets in the 2000s, when the state took greater control and some majors exited. It also reopens questions about the future supply of Venezuelan crude and who gets first access if

Why Strategy Inc stock is jumping after-hours: fresh Bitcoin buy, $17.44B Q4 paper loss

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 17:27 ET — After-hours Shares of Strategy Inc (MSTR.O) rose 4.8% in after-hours trading on Monday after the company disclosed a fresh bitcoin purchase and flagged a $17.44 billion fourth-quarter unrealized loss on digital assets. SEC The disclosure matters because Strategy has become one of the market’s most direct equity proxies for bitcoin moves, with investors treating its stock as a leveraged way to bet on the token. Monday’s filing put the spotlight back on how quickly quarterly results can swing when crypto prices move. It also refocused attention on how Strategy funds its buying.

New York, January 5, 2026, 15:37 EST — Regular session Sanmina Corp (SANM.O) shares fell 5.1% to $151.12 in afternoon trading on Monday after the contract manufacturer gave up an early rally that pushed the stock above $165.

Chevron stock jumps 5% on Venezuela shake-up; what investors are watching next

New York, January 5, 2026, 15:27 ET — Regular session Chevron (CVX) shares were up $8.62, or 5.5%, at $164.52 in afternoon trading, after earlier touching $171.50. The move followed weekend developments in Venezuela and U.S. comments pointing to a push for American oil companies to help rebuild the country’s oil industry, a jolt that lifted the broader energy complex. AP News Chevron is seen as the most direct U.S. beneficiary because it is the only U.S. major still operating in Venezuela under a U.S. waiver — a license that allows limited activity despite sanctions. “This type of crude aligns

Bloom Energy stock jumps again as traders refocus on its $600 million credit line

New York, January 5, 2026, 15:20 EST — Regular session Bloom Energy shares rose about 5.9% to $104.50 in afternoon trade on Monday as investors weighed the fuel-cell maker’s access to fresh liquidity. The stock hit an intraday high of $107.24. The move matters because financing has become a key swing factor for fast-growing clean-energy companies that still face choppy cash flows. For Bloom, balance-sheet flexibility is under scrutiny as demand builds for on-site power systems tied to data centers and other large electricity users. A revolving credit facility is essentially a bank line of credit that a company can

Palo Alto Networks stock climbs after report flags $400 mln Koi Security talks, analysts turn less bearish

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 15:00 EST — Regular session Shares of Palo Alto Networks (PANW.O) rose 1.7% to $182.46 in afternoon trading on Monday after an Israeli media report said the cybersecurity firm is in talks to buy endpoint-security startup Koi Security for about $400 million. The report lands as investors look for signs that security spending is holding up in early 2026, even as corporate IT budgets face tighter scrutiny. Endpoint protection — software that secures laptops, servers and other devices — has been a competitive battleground as attacks increasingly start on employee machines and developer tools. M&A

Marvell stock (MRVL) rises after Melius upgrade sets $135 target ahead of CES CEO chat

New York, January 5, 2026, 14:40 (EST) — Regular session Marvell Technology, Inc. shares rose on Monday after Melius Research upgraded the chipmaker, keeping the stock in positive territory after an early spike. The shares were up about 1.5% at $90.69 after opening at $93.08. The call matters because Marvell sits in the middle of the market’s debate over how long AI-driven data-center spending can stay strong in 2026. The company’s exposure to custom silicon — chips designed to one customer’s specifications — makes its growth outlook especially sensitive to big cloud customers’ buildout pace and product timing.

Sunrun stock slides as RUN lags solar peers with jobs report, Goldman conference in focus

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 14:26 EST — Regular session Sunrun Inc shares fell 5.6% on Monday, a sharp underperformer in U.S. solar, as investors weighed fresh U.S. economic data and looked ahead to a key jobs report later this week. The stock was down $1.08 at $18.36 in afternoon trade. The move matters because Sunrun’s rooftop solar business leans heavily on financing, and shifts in interest-rate expectations can quickly change customer economics and investor appetite for the sector. Traders were also scanning for any read-through on demand and pricing as the first full week of 2026 gets underway. Reuters
