New York, Jan 21, 2026, 11:25 EST — Regular session Applied Materials, Inc. shares climbed 1.7% to $323.62 in late morning trading Wednesday, buoyed by a modest bounce in U.S. stocks and strength in chip equipment stocks. “That’s a sigh of relief for markets,” said Art Hogan, chief market strategist at B Riley Wealth, following President Donald Trump’s announcement that he would not pursue force to acquire Greenland.

D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) stock edges up as 10.4 million shares line up for resale after Quantum Circuits deal

New York, January 21, 2026, 10:35 EST — Regular session D-Wave Quantum’s stock inched higher Wednesday after wrapping up its acquisition of Quantum Circuits. The company filed paperwork revealing plans to resell shares tied to the transaction. Shares ticked up about 0.5%, hitting $27.17 during morning trading. These filings carry weight—they lay out a short-term supply risk. A resale registration won’t bring in cash right away, but it can spark selling if those holding the deal shares decide to exit quickly. D-Wave finds itself at a sensitive moment, serving as a volatile gauge of investor appetite for early-stage quantum computing.

Blackstone (BX) stock price rebounds after Sabre deal as jobs, CPI loom next week

7 February 2026
New York, February 6, 2026, 21:13 EST — Market closed. Blackstone Inc. (BX) shares closed up 2.25% at $129.69 on Friday, after a sharp drop the day before and a bruising week for the sector. The stock was last at $129.65 in late after-hours trading. (StockAnalysis) The swing matters because Blackstone sits in the crosshairs of a wider rethink of private-market managers. Investors have been quick to punish anything tied to leverage, credit risk and tech exposure, then just as quick to buy back when rates and risk appetite settle. That push-pull has been driven in part by an AI-linked
