Coinbase shares jumped 3%, and bitcoin holder Strategy rose 4.2%. The iShares Bitcoin Trust ETF alongside Grayscale Bitcoin Trust each gained roughly 2.3%. Miners showed mixed moves: Marathon Digital edged up 0.9%, while Riot Platforms dipped 1%. The shift came after a flurry of policy announcements from Washington and a new inflation report that kept speculation about rate cuts alive. In a market driven by just two factors — regulation and borrowing costs —

Why Via Transportation stock is up today: Goldman upgrade sparks a rebound ahead of Feb. 27 results

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 13:47 EST — Regular session Shares of Via Transportation jumped roughly 7% to $27.02 in Tuesday afternoon trading following a buy upgrade from Goldman Sachs. The transit-tech stock opened at $26.78 and briefly peaked at $27.39, staying well above its intraday low of $25.35. (StreetInsider.com) The call matters given Via’s rocky post-IPO performance. Since debuting at $46 in September, the shares have tumbled roughly 41%, making investors highly sensitive to shifts in analyst ratings and any signals about the speed of new contract acquisitions. Via set a date for its next catalyst, announcing it will

Dow Jones Industrial Average drops from record as JPMorgan, Visa slide — what Wall Street watches next

New York, January 13, 2026, 13:39 EST — Regular session underway. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.67% to 49,256.12 on Tuesday, dragged down by financial stocks as investors digested an inflation report that kept the rate-cut discussion open. U.S. crude climbed 2.67% to $61.09 a barrel, with Iran unrest sending oil prices to their highest in weeks. (Reuters) The benchmark entered the session close to record levels, having just hit an all-time high Monday. Investors shrugged off renewed doubts about the Federal Reserve’s independence. Peter Cardillo, chief market economist at Spartan Capital Securities, noted that “the market is taking

GE Vernova stock rises as $1,087 target lands, but “oversupply” talk clouds the trade

New York, January 13, 2026, 13:22 EST — Regular session Shares of GE Vernova climbed Tuesday, boosted by a fresh bullish price target, even as investors weighed caution over rising competition. The stock gained 1.9%, hitting $651.92 in early afternoon trading, after briefly reaching $659.04. This shift is significant as GE Vernova now serves as a stand-in for the race to boost power generation amid rising electricity demand from data centers and electrification. Following a strong rally, the stock’s price action has begun to reflect sentiment shifts more than daily fundamental changes. With the quarterly report due later this month,

Why Procter & Gamble stock is holding up as Wall Street dips ahead of earnings

New York, January 13, 2026, 13:37 EST — Regular session Procter & Gamble (PG.N) shares edged up 0.1% to $143.59 on Tuesday, staying positive as the wider market slipped. S&P 500, Dow, and Nasdaq ETFs fell between 0.3% and 0.7% in afternoon trading. Investors are shifting away from expensive growth stocks, turning to “overlooked” sectors like consumer staples, Reuters noted, even as major indexes fell. Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, emphasized, “the lifeblood of a bull market is rotation.” (Reuters) The move followed a Labor Department report revealing U.S. consumer prices climbed 0.3% in December, marking a

Nebius stock slips after Monday’s 10% pop as AI infrastructure trade turns choppy

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 13:37 ET — Regular session Nebius Group N.V. shares slipped 1.4% on Tuesday, shedding some of Monday’s gains amid a broader pullback in high-growth AI infrastructure stocks. The stock traded last at $105.85, fluctuating between $104.35 and $108.36 throughout the session. The pullback is significant because Nebius now serves as a momentum gauge for demand in graphics processing units (GPUs) — the chips powering AI model training and operation — and signals investor appetite for infrastructure investments. Sharp moves can quickly flip when interest rates, funding expenses, or earnings reports change. U.S. stocks slipped off

Rocket Lab stock hovers near highs after Baird lifts RKLB target to $100 — what’s next

NEW YORK, January 13, 2026, 12:54 EST — Regular session Rocket Lab shares edged up 0.1% to $87.98 by midday Tuesday, following Baird analyst Peter Arment’s upgrade of the price target to $100. He advised clients to “stay long RKLB,” according to StreetInsider. The stock fluctuated between $85.66 and $89.65 on volume of roughly 12 million shares, as the Nasdaq Composite dipped 0.1%. This call is crucial as Rocket Lab aims to shed its image as merely a small-launch player with uneven revenue. Investors are now focused on whether its space-systems business can deliver consistent production and more reliable cash

Gold pushed higher, building on a strong 2026 kickoff, with spot prices reaching an all-time high of $4,629.94 an ounce on Monday. Brokers have started eyeing $5,000 for this year. Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade, noted, “Gold may attempt a more sustained breach of $4,600.” (Reuters) U.S. inflation figures hit the desks of traders today.

IHS Holding (IHS) stock jumps near $8 on CPI day — what traders watch next

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 12:56 ET — Regular session IHS Holding Limited shares rose 5.9% to $8.05 on Tuesday, after touching $8.10 in midday New York trading. The move came as investors sized up fresh U.S. inflation data and what it might mean for interest rates. The consumer price index rose 0.3% in December and 2.7% from a year earlier; core CPI — which strips out food and energy — was 2.6%, Reuters data showed. Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B. Riley Wealth, said the “core came in a tick cooler at 2.6%.” Wall Street’s tone was less

Venture Global stock rebounds after 2025 EBITDA guidance cut as traders refocus on LNG cargo numbers

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 12:44 EST — Regular session Shares of Venture Global jumped roughly 7% to $7.90 during midday trading on the New York Stock Exchange Tuesday, recovering after the U.S. liquefied natural gas exporter lowered its full-year profit forecast just a day earlier. This move is significant because the company’s recent update finally put a concrete figure on an issue traders have debated for weeks: just how fast shipping delays and price fluctuations can erode margins on spot LNG cargoes. This comes before Venture Global’s fourth-quarter results, which will reveal the cash flow and complete earnings details

Mastercard stock slides as Trump’s 10% credit-card rate cap talk hits payments shares

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 12:47 PM EST — Regular session Shares of Mastercard Incorporated slipped roughly 4.5% to $540.94 by midday Tuesday, underperforming the broader market as investors offloaded payment and card-linked stocks for the second day running. The drop came amid fresh concerns about President Donald Trump’s plan to cap credit-card interest rates at 10%. JPMorgan flagged that such a limit might pressure consumers and tighten credit availability. Visa also fell in early trading. (Reuters) This is important now as the market wrestles with pricing in policy risk for a financial sector segment long seen as stable: card
