Bitmine (BMNR) stock slips premarket after naming new CFO/COO as big share vote nears

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 09:12 EST — Premarket Bitmine Immersion Technologies’ shares fell about 1% to $30.97 in premarket trading on Friday, after ending Thursday up 3% at $31.28. The NYSE American-listed digital-asset company said it appointed Young Kim as chief financial officer and chief operating officer, effective immediately. (Webull) The timing matters. Bitmine’s stock has behaved less like a steady operating business and more like a leveraged bet on its crypto holdings, with governance and funding questions now front and center. Kim steps in as shareholders weigh how fast Bitmine can grow its digital-asset “treasury” — cash and

Sabra Health Care REIT (SBRA) stock slips in premarket after naming new chief investment officer

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 08:00 EST — Premarket Shares of Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. fell 0.4% to $19.08 in premarket trading on Tuesday after the healthcare landlord disclosed a chief investment officer transition. A regulatory filing showed Darrin Smith will also serve as secretary and executive vice president, while Chief Financial Officer Michael Costa takes on the treasurer role, effective Jan. 1. The filing said Smith’s employment agreement sets an initial annual base salary of $470,000 and outlines severance terms. SEC The change matters because the CIO job typically shapes a REIT’s deal pipeline — what it buys,

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. The sharp move puts fresh focus on what the optical-components maker says next, with its quarterly update now weeks away. Traders have been leaning heavily on the data-center buildout narrative, and the bar rises quickly when a stock posts outsized swings. After the bell, Lumentum disclosed in an SEC filing that Chief Accounting Officer Matthew Sepe told the

Opendoor stock rises in premarket as OPEN nears $6.24 incentive level after CFO change

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 07:40 ET — Premarket Opendoor Technologies Inc (OPEN) shares were up 2.1% at $5.95 in premarket trading on Friday. The stock closed at $5.83 on Dec. 31 after trading between $5.77 and $6.00, according to Investing.com data. Investing.com The real-estate platform is an “iBuyer” — it uses its own balance sheet to buy homes directly, then resells them — leaving results highly exposed to funding costs and home-price swings. That matters early in the year because shifts in interest-rate expectations can quickly change mortgage affordability and transaction volumes, which tend to ripple into rate-sensitive housing

Why Super Micro Computer (SMCI) stock is down today: 8-K exec change as xAI expansion keeps AI servers in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:55 ET — Regular session Super Micro Computer, Inc. (SMCI) shares were down about 1.7% at $29.16 by 2:55 p.m. ET on Wednesday, after trading between $29.12 and $29.86 on about 15.4 million shares.

Stryker stock slips today as year-end trading turns cautious — dividend date and new COO in focus

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 10:30 PM ET — Market closed Shares of Stryker Corp (SYK) ended Monday down 0.5% at $352.50, giving back ground as Wall Street slipped in the final week of 2025. The late-day drift mattered more than usual for a stock that has a near-term calendar: a shareholder record date for the next dividend lands this week, and Stryker’s new president and chief operating officer is set to take the role on Jan. 1. With trading volumes typically lighter around year-end, modest risk-off moves can show up quickly in large-cap healthcare names, especially after a tech-heavy

SMCI stock slips as Super Micro flags operations chief retirement in new 8-K

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 21:04 ET — Market closed Super Micro Computer (SMCI.O) shares fell 1.8% on Monday to close at $30.08 after the server maker disclosed an operations leadership change in a regulatory filing. Investing.com+1 The change matters because Super Micro’s growth story depends on execution — building and shipping complex, high-powered servers used in artificial intelligence data centers. The company has faced investor scrutiny this year after it cited delivery delays tied to last-minute design changes. Reuters Monday’s move also came as investors trimmed exposure to large technology stocks that have led 2025’s rally, leaving little appetite

British Airways faces customer leadership vacuum as Chief Customer Officer Calum Laming set to depart in March 2026

LONDON — December 26, 2025 — British Airways is heading into 2026 with a major question hanging over one of its most visible priorities: the customer experience. Multiple aviation and travel outlets reported this week that Calum Laming, British Airways’ Chief Customer Officer (CCO), is expected to leave the airline at the end of March 2026—and that no successor has been publicly named. SSBCrack News The timing is awkward. Boxing Day traditionally marks a surge in travel bookings and public attention for airlines—and British Airways has launched its annual sale window, running through late January. At the same time, disruption-heavy
