SMCI stock slides after Goldman starts Super Micro at Sell and flags margin downside

New York, January 13, 2026, 11:07 EST Shares of Super Micro Computer (SMCI) fell on Tuesday after Goldman Sachs assumed coverage of the AI-server maker with a Sell rating, warning profit margins could weaken further even as demand for artificial intelligence (AI) hardware stays strong. The stock was down about 6.0% at $28.31 as of 10:51 a.m. EST. (Investing.com) The call lands at a touchy moment for Super Micro, which sits in the middle of the AI buildout but is being judged less on how fast it ships boxes and more on what it keeps after costs.

Intel stock jumps near 6% on KeyBanc upgrade — and a filing shows a big holder cut back

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 11:07 EST Intel shares climbed 5.9% to $46.64 by 11:07 a.m. EST Tuesday, on roughly 69 million shares traded. Advanced Micro Devices also jumped, up 5.0% in early trading.

Joby Aviation stock slides in New York trade — what’s moving JOBY after CPI

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 10:49 EST — Regular session Shares of Joby Aviation, Inc. (JOBY) dropped 6.7% to $14.37 by 10:49 a.m. EST, wiping out an initial gain as the stock swung sharply lower. So far, the price has moved between $15.93 and $14.16, with roughly 11.6 million shares traded. The decline followed new U.S. inflation figures that failed to boost bets on near-term rate cuts. December saw consumer prices climb 0.3%, while core inflation, excluding food and energy, edged up 0.2%. That left annual rates steady at 2.7% for overall and 2.6% for core. (Reuters) This is crucial

Costco stock slips after CPI; 3 near-term dates investors are watching for COST

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 11:14 ET — Regular session Costco Wholesale shares dipped Tuesday, surrendering some of Monday’s gains as investors absorbed new inflation data and shuffled their bets in retail stocks. The pullback is significant since Costco typically acts as a “quality” consumer staple—investors bid it up when economic worries rise, then trim positions as rates or growth forecasts move. Tuesday’s CPI reading fueled ongoing rate-cut chatter, stirring volatile action in defensive stocks. This comes just before a packed schedule of Costco-specific dates, as investors hunt for clues on traffic, renewal rates, and margins ahead of the upcoming
