New York, Jan 25, 2026, 10:33 EST — The market has closed. Oracle shares slipped 0.6% on Friday, finishing at $177.16. The drop followed a price target cut from Morgan Stanley, which cautioned that investors might be underestimating the expenses tied to the company’s push to ramp up AI data-center capacity. (Barron’s) The call hit a shaky tape for big tech, with investors increasingly distinguishing “AI demand” from actual “AI profits.” Oracle stands out in this trade, locking in hefty cloud deals—but it still requires hardware, power, and real estate to fulfill those commitments. Tension is high this week. The

Johannesburg, Jan 25, 2026, 16:39 (SAST) — Market closed Sibanye Stillwater’s U.S.-listed shares surged on Friday, lifted by renewed demand for precious metals and a broker upgrade just ahead of the weekend.
