KLA (KLAC) stock climbs after TD Cowen upgrade and $1,800 target

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 15:35 EST — Regular session Shares of KLA Corp rose about 1.3% on Tuesday after TD Cowen upgraded the chip equipment maker to “buy” and sharply raised its price target. The stock was at $1,446.61 after touching an intraday high of $1,489.99. The move came against a softer tape. The S&P 500 tracker SPY and the Nasdaq 100 tracker QQQ were both down about 0.4%, while semiconductor equipment peers Applied Materials, Lam Research and ASML traded lower. The upgrade matters because investors are trying to pin down the next leg of wafer fab spending —

iRhythm (IRTC) stock slides as 2026 outlook and holding-company switch land

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 14:56 (EST) — Regular session Shares of iRhythm Technologies (IRTC) fell 7.5% to $156.24 in Tuesday afternoon trading, following the company’s release of its 2026 sales and profitability goals alongside a plan for corporate restructuring. The timing is key. The update landed right in the middle of the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco, a week when medtech and biotech firms typically shape the year’s initial outlook. iRhythm is working hard to reassure investors it can sustain growth as it pushes toward profitability. The company hasn’t published its full 2025 results yet, leaving the

SoFi stock rises as Trump’s 10% credit-card cap idea shakes lenders — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 15:03 ET — Regular session. SoFi Technologies shares rose 1.1% to $26.89 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, while the S&P 500 slipped about 0.4%, as investors weighed whether a new push to cap credit-card rates could redirect borrowers toward online lenders. The stock has moved with a widening policy fight after Trump called for a one-year cap of 10% on credit card interest rates starting Jan. 20. Bank and payments groups argue a cap would force lenders to pull credit from weaker borrowers; “a one-size-fits-all government price cap may sound appealing, but it wouldn’t help

Bharat Coking Coal IPO pulls in ₹1.1 lakh crore bids as grey-market signals lift debut hopes

Mumbai, Jan 14, 2026, 01:09 IST Bharat Coking Coal’s initial public offering closed in India on Tuesday with demand running about 147 times the shares on offer, exchange data showed. The grey market premium (GMP) — an unofficial price paid in off-market deals before listing — was around ₹11, implying a debut near ₹34 versus the top issue price of ₹23. (The Economic Times) The scramble comes despite choppy trading in domestic stocks, and it is a sharp test of risk appetite early in 2026. Bids topped ₹1.1 lakh crore (₹1.1 trillion) for the ₹1,071-crore issue, with applications crossing 90

New York, January 13, 2026, 14:14 EST — Regular session Shares of Chevron Corporation rose roughly 2.2%, reaching $165.95 in Tuesday afternoon trading. Crude prices jumped following unrest in Iran, stoking fears of supply disruptions. Brent surged 2.5% to $65.44 a barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate rose 2.7% to $61.09 by 1:22 p.m. EST. Barclays estimates the geopolitical premium at roughly $3-$4 a barrel.

Plexus stock jumps 7% in midday trade as contract manufacturers rally after CPI

New York, January 13, 2026, 13:51 (EST) — Regular session Plexus Corp (PLXS) shares climbed roughly 7% to $171.65 in afternoon trading Tuesday, after earlier bouncing between $159.41 and $171.79. The rally followed a broad upswing in electronics manufacturing services stocks: Jabil jumped close to 4%, Flex added around 4.3%, and Sanmina increased roughly 4.7%. Meanwhile, the iShares Semiconductor ETF, often seen as a gauge for chip sentiment, ticked up about 1.2%. The broader U.S. market barely moved, with the S&P 500-tracking SPY slipping about 0.2% and the tech-heavy QQQ down roughly the same. Investors absorbed a December inflation report

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

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

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
