CrowdStrike stock dips as year-end tech pullback drags cybersecurity names

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 13:49 ET — Regular session. CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. shares fell about 1% on Monday, down $4.77 to $476.42 in afternoon trading.

Rigetti stock slides as quantum-computing trade cools into year-end

Rigetti stock slides as quantum-computing trade cools into year-end

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 11:49 ET — Regular session Rigetti Computing’s shares fell about 3% on Monday, extending a late-December pullback in quantum-computing stocks as traders booked gains and waited for fresh catalysts. The moves matter now because the quantum group has become a momentum trade into year-end, where lighter holiday liquidity can magnify swings in high-volatility names. Investors Business Daily said the sector’s recent slide followed a brief pop earlier this month that arrived “without major news,” and was later met by profit-taking and valuation jitters. Investors.com Rigetti has drawn attention alongside peers such as IonQ and D-Wave,

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 13:09 ET — Regular session Western Digital Corp (WDC.O) shares fell in Monday afternoon trading, slipping more than the broader market.

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 12:21 ET — Regular session Warner Bros Discovery shares edged higher on Monday, up about 0.2% at $28.86 by 12:21 p.m. ET, as trading stayed anchored around the prices implied by competing takeover proposals.

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 10:56 ET — Regular session Nike shares were down about 0.3% at $60.77 in morning New York trading on Monday after UBS reiterated a Neutral rating and kept a $62 price target, its estimate of where the stock could trade over the next 12 months.

Broadcom stock falls at the open as year-end rally cools and AI margin worries linger

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 09:39 ET — Regular session Broadcom shares fell about 1.4% to $347.37 in early New York trading on Monday, underperforming a softer tech sector as investors turned cautious in the final week of 2025.
