P&G stock: 3 things to watch before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 11:34 EST — Market closed Procter & Gamble (PG) shares ended Friday roughly 0.2% higher, closing at $141.87. The modest gain kept the consumer-staples giant essentially flat heading into the weekend. This is crucial now since the next market move will probably hinge on interest rates. Even a slight change in inflation expectations can nudge Treasury yields and shake up “defensive” stocks — the reliable earners investors turn to when growth feels uncertain. P&G occupies a central spot in that dynamic. The company sells everyday essentials, and its earnings often influence investor views on pricing

Bank of America stock: Trump’s 10% credit-card rate cap call hits ahead of BAC earnings

New York, January 11, 2026, 11:15 EST — Market closed. U.S. President Donald Trump announced a one-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10%, set to start on Jan. 20, though he didn’t clarify how the plan would be enforced. The move adds fresh policy risk for Bank of America and other lenders as trading restarts. Banking groups warned this could “reduce credit availability.” Bank of America, American Express, and Capital One did not respond to Reuters’ requests for comment. “When companies can’t price the risk properly, they’ll just reduce credit lines,” said Brian Jacobsen, chief economic strategist at

Micron stock jumps on fresh $390 target — what to know before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 11:13 AM EST — Market closed Micron Technology (MU.O) jumped 5.5%, closing Friday at $345.09 following a price target boost from Mizuho. The iShares Semiconductor ETF also climbed 2.9%, highlighting widespread gains ahead of the weekend. (TipRanks) This shift is significant since Micron is now a key barometer for data-center demand and memory prices. Friday’s surge tightens the margin for any letdown when upcoming reports arrive. With U.S. markets closed Sunday, Monday’s open will reveal if buyers continue pushing or start cashing out. Micron stands as one of the rare suppliers of high-bandwidth memory, or

Mastercard stock heads into CPI week after ex-dividend drop — what to watch next

New York, January 11, 2026, 10:41 EST — Market closed. Mastercard Incorporated shares slipped 0.8% Friday to $575.63, retreating ahead of a packed week of U.S. economic data and earnings reports. The payments firm has tracked alongside other “quality growth” stocks, making it vulnerable to shifts in rate-cut expectations. (MarketBeat) Here’s why it matters now: Mastercard’s fees move with card spending and international travel, making the company a real-time gauge of consumer activity. When inflation jumps unexpectedly, bond yields can spike, pushing markets to quickly revalue high-multiple payment networks. Friday’s action coincided with a dividend-related technical.

With U.S. markets closed Sunday, all eyes turn to Monday’s open for the next move. (Yahoo Finance) The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (.SOX), a key barometer for chipmakers, surged 2.7% to a record high on Friday, driven by Broadcom and Intel’s nearly 11% jump. Intel gained steam after President Donald Trump described his meeting with CEO Lip-Bu Tan as “great,” while the Supreme Court held off on ruling about the legality

ASML stock jumps 7% into the weekend as analysts bet on a 2026 EUV upcycle

Amsterdam, Jan 11, 2026, 16:46 CET — Markets have closed. ASML Holding’s U.S.-listed shares jumped 6.7% to close at $1,273.88 in the latest session. The boost came on renewed analyst enthusiasm, linking the Dutch chip-equipment giant’s 2026 outlook to AI-driven demand and a recovery in memory spending. (Investing.com) This matters because ASML controls a critical bottleneck in advanced chip manufacturing. If major chipmakers continue ramping up AI-related capacity, ASML’s lithography equipment could score a fresh wave of orders—even as investors argue over whether 2026 will bring a “pause” or more growth. The company has promised to share more on its

Olema Pharmaceuticals Inc shares closed up 9.8% on Friday at $28.08, with about 2.5 million shares changing hands, as investors headed into a catalyst-heavy week for the cancer drug developer. (The Wall Street Journal) U.S. markets reopen on Monday, and Olema is the kind of stock that can gap on a single slide deck. Conference remarks and fresh sell-side research tend to matter more than broad market tape for early-stage biotechs, at least for a day or two. Olema said CEO Sean P. Bohen will present at the J.P.
