TeraWulf stock climbs in premarket after KBW upgrade, $24 target; bitcoin near $89,000

TeraWulf stock climbs in premarket after KBW upgrade, $24 target; bitcoin near $89,000

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 05:02 ET — Premarket TeraWulf Inc (WULF) shares rose 2.9% to $11.49 in premarket trading, lifting off a previous close of $11.17. The move puts the spotlight back on bitcoin-linked stocks at the start of 2026, after analysts argued the market is still struggling to price miners that are trying to become data-center operators. That shift matters now because high-performance computing (HPC) — data centers that rent power, space and cooling for intensive workloads such as artificial intelligence — tends to offer longer-dated, contracted revenue than bitcoin mining. It also requires heavy upfront spending and

Nike stock (NKE) climbs after CEO Elliott Hill buys $1 million in shares

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:55 ET — Market closed Nike shares ended the last U.S. trading session up 4.2% at $63.71, after a regulatory filing showed Chief Executive Elliott Hill bought about $1 million worth of stock. Insider buying — when executives use personal funds to buy shares — often draws attention because it can signal confidence at a moment when investors are debating whether a turnaround is taking hold. That matters now for Nike because the stock has been under pressure and year-end trading can exaggerate moves, with investors repositioning for the start of the new year. A

TradingView The stock outlook lands as U.S. equities close out 2025 with another year of sizable gains, powered in part by investor appetite for artificial-intelligence linked names.

DoorDash stock dips on year-end slide as markets shut for New Year’s Day — what’s next for DASH

DoorDash stock dips on year-end slide as markets shut for New Year’s Day — what’s next for DASH

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 17:00 ET — Market closed DoorDash, Inc. shares ended the last trading day of 2025 lower, mirroring a broad pullback that capped the year in thin holiday-week trading. The move matters because the first trading sessions of 2026 will test whether investors keep trimming higher-growth consumer internet names or rotate back into them as liquidity returns. For DoorDash, the near-term focus remains demand momentum and cost discipline, two drivers that can swing expectations quickly when the market’s appetite for risk shifts. DASH finished at $226.48 on Wednesday, down 0.7% from the prior close, with about

Amazon stock forecast 2026: Analysts map 20%-plus upside for AMZN as cloud spending comes under scrutinyNEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 16:56 ET

Amazon.com (AMZN.O) enters 2026 with Wall Street still penciling in double-digit gains, with analysts tracked by StockAnalysis.com setting an average 12-month price target of $284.70 — a forecast of about 23% upside from the stock’s Dec. 31 close. The same dataset shows analysts expecting fiscal 2026 revenue of $811.23 billion and earnings per share (EPS), a measure of profit per share, of $8.11.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 16:44 ET — Market closed AT&T Inc. shares ended 2025 slightly higher in the last U.S. session on Wednesday, holding up as broader indexes slipped into the New Year holiday. The stock last closed up 0.12% at $24.84. Yahoo Finance The quiet close matters because year-end trading was thin, which can exaggerate moves in big dividend payers such as AT&T as investors reset portfolios for 2026.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 15:51 ET — Market closed. Uber Technologies’ shares last closed down 0.5% at $81.71 on Dec. 31, after a UK report said the company is rewriting contracts with drivers outside London to shift value-added tax liability ahead of a rule change due Friday. U.S. markets were closed on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday.

Blackstone (BX) stock price rebounds after Sabre deal as jobs, CPI loom next week

7 February 2026
New York, February 6, 2026, 21:13 EST — Market closed. Blackstone Inc. (BX) shares closed up 2.25% at $129.69 on Friday, after a sharp drop the day before and a bruising week for the sector. The stock was last at $129.65 in late after-hours trading. (StockAnalysis) The swing matters because Blackstone sits in the crosshairs of a wider rethink of private-market managers. Investors have been quick to punish anything tied to leverage, credit risk and tech exposure, then just as quick to buy back when rates and risk appetite settle. That push-pull has been driven in part by an AI-linked
