BitMine Immersion (BMNR) stock jumps 15% as Tom Lee pushes 50-billion share authorization vote

BitMine Immersion (BMNR) stock jumps 15% as Tom Lee pushes 50-billion share authorization vote

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 06:51 ET — Market closed BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc shares closed sharply higher in the last U.S. session after the crypto-focused company stepped up its push for shareholders to approve a sweeping increase in its authorized shares. The stock ended Friday up 14.9% at $31.19. Nasdaq The vote matters because authorized shares set the maximum number of shares a company is allowed to issue under its charter. Raising that ceiling can give management room for stock sales, stock-based deals or stock splits, but it can also amplify dilution worries if new shares are issued. BitMine’s

DoorDash stock falls as co-founder trust signals $20.6 million share-sale plan

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 16:45 ET — Market closed DoorDash shares closed down 3% on Friday at $219.79, lagging a steadier broader market into the weekend. The stock drew attention after a late-day SEC filing showed a trust tied to director Stanley Tang planned a sale of up to about $20.6 million of DoorDash stock. Streetinsider The filings land at the start of a new year when investors are quick to scrutinize insider activity and liquidity, especially in higher-valuation consumer and technology names. On Friday, stocks finished mixed and Treasury yields ticked higher, a backdrop that can amplify moves
Adobe stock drops more than 4% as new bull case says AI fears are overdone

Adobe stock drops more than 4% as new bull case says AI fears are overdone

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 11:13 ET Adobe shares slid about 4.4% on Friday morning, turning lower after opening near the prior close in a broad pullback across big software names. Salesforce and Autodesk were also down, while Microsoft slipped about 2%. The move keeps attention on one of the market’s live debates heading into 2026: whether generative AI — software that can create images, text or video from simple prompts — will erode demand for Adobe’s paid creative tools, or reinforce them by speeding up work for professionals. Investors are watching for proof that AI features can become recurring,

Netflix stock falls nearly 2% as NFL streaming win meets fresh-year caution

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 10:35 ET — Regular session Netflix, Inc. shares fell about 1.9% to $91.96 in morning trade on Friday, reversing an early gain as U.S. markets opened the first session of 2026. The stock opened at $94.11 and traded between $91.81 and $94.50. The slide follows a key datapoint for Netflix’s live-programming push: the company said its Christmas Day National Football League broadcasts set U.S. viewership records, with Lions–Vikings averaging 27.5 million viewers and peaking above 30 million, citing Nielsen. Netflix also said the games are part of a deal to stream NFL matchups on Christmas

Marvell (MRVL) stock drops 2% into year-end close as chip trade cools — what’s next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:09 ET — Market closed Marvell Technology (MRVL.O) fell $1.78, or about 2.1%, to $84.98 on Wednesday. Trading volume was about 7.2 million shares. The decline came as Wall Street ended 2025’s final session lower in holiday-thin trade, with the Nasdaq down 0.76% and the S&P 500 off 0.74%, Reuters reported. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity, pointing to profit-taking when liquidity was low. Reuters The year-end drift matters because the market’s gains have been driven by the artificial intelligence trade,

IonQ stock ends lower as quantum names cool into the New Year — what’s next for IONQ

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 20:15 ET — Market closed IonQ Inc shares fell 0.9% to $44.87 at Wednesday’s close, after hitting a session low of $44.68 and a high of $46.42. Quantum-computing peers Rigetti Computing, D-Wave Quantum and Quantum Computing Inc also ended lower, and about 11.4 million IonQ shares changed hands. The group has traded like a high-beta corner of tech, where sentiment shifts can move prices quickly even without major earnings catalysts. For many investors, customer wins and system-delivery milestones remain the clearest near-term signals of demand. IonQ’s latest headline was a South Korea delivery agreement as

Shopify stock dips as year-end trading turns defensive; rates back in focus for SHOP

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 19:41 ET — After-hours Shopify Inc shares fell 1.7% to $160.97 on Wednesday, as investors trimmed some high-growth exposure on the final trading day of 2025. The stock traded between $160.75 and $163.83 and is about 12% below its 52-week high, according to the company’s investor relations quote. Shopify Investors The decline lands as markets head into a holiday break, with U.S. exchanges closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day and set to reopen on Friday. Thin holiday volume can amplify day-to-day moves, particularly in higher-volatility technology names. MarketWatch Shopify is often sensitive to changes

Silver price today: SLV tumbles as CME margin hike spurs year-end shakeout

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:30 PM ET — After-hours Spot silver fell sharply on Wednesday and the main silver-linked U.S. ETF slid, as traders booked profits into year-end and braced for higher collateral requirements in futures markets. Investing The timing matters. Silver has been one of 2025’s standout trades, and leverage has piled into the rally as liquidity thins around holidays and portfolio managers close their books. That can turn routine selling into outsized moves. Reuters The latest drop also tests how much of the year’s run-up was driven by fundamentals versus momentum. Silver’s blend of safe-haven and industrial

CoreWeave stock drops as insider sale filing hits thin year-end trade — what’s next for CRWV

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:40 ET — Regular session CoreWeave Inc shares were down 3.1% at $71.63 on Wednesday afternoon, after an insider sale disclosure drew attention in thin year-end trading. The stock hit a session low of $71.46. The timing matters because trading conditions are patchy heading into the New Year’s Day holiday, when lower liquidity can amplify moves in single names. For a recently listed company with a volatile tape, incremental supply can weigh on sentiment even without new fundamental news. Investors have also been sensitive to funding and dilution risk in capital-intensive AI infrastructure plays. CoreWeave

The stock finished Tuesday up 0.2%, after trading between $5.64 and $5.86 on volume of about 42 million shares. StockAnalysis The stock heads into the final trading day of 2025 with liquidity thin and rate-sensitive names prone to outsized swings. Weekly U.S. jobless claims are due at 8:30 a.m. ET — released a day early because Thursday is a federal holiday — and U.S. markets are shut on Thursday for New Year’s Day. OUI+1

AFJK jolts higher in premarket as Aimei Health extends a wild run into year-end

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 05:02 ET — Premarket Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd shares rose 38% to $114 in premarket trading on Wednesday, extending Tuesday’s outsized move in the Nasdaq-listed blank-check company. The stock ended the prior session up 89% at $82.58 after trading in a wide range. StockAnalysis The spike matters because Aimei’s share count shrank sharply after recent redemptions, a setup that can amplify price swings when even modest buying hits a thin market. In a Dec. 2 filing, the company said shareholders redeemed 3,942,661 public shares for about $44.8 million, and that it would have about
