Carvana stock heads into Monday after 5% drop, fresh insider sale notices

Carvana stock heads into Monday after 5% drop, fresh insider sale notices

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:15 ET — Market closed Carvana Co. shares fell 5.2% on Friday to $400.25, and investors will start the new week with two late-day filings showing planned insider sales. SEC The notices matter now because Carvana has been one of the market’s most volatile consumer names, and early-year trading can amplify reactions to insider activity. Rate-sensitive stocks tied to consumer financing have also been quick to swing with shifts in the interest-rate outlook. A Form 144 is a required SEC notice under Rule 144 that signals a bona fide intention to sell restricted or “control”

Adobe stock today: ADBE drops 4.8% to start 2026 — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:22 AM ET — Market closed Adobe Inc. (ADBE.O) shares fell 4.8% on Friday to close at $333.30, ending near the session low after trading down to $331.67. The stock opened at $351.73 and finished the day with about 5.6 million shares traded, according to market data. The drop leaves Adobe starting 2026 on the defensive, a reminder that premium-priced software stocks remain sensitive to rates and growth fears. With no fresh earnings update until later in the quarter, traders are treating the name as a proxy for broader sentiment toward large-cap tech. Wall Street
Costco stock price today: COST ends down 0.9% as December sales report nears

Costco stock price today: COST ends down 0.9% as December sales report nears

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:18 ET — Market closed Costco Wholesale Corporation shares slipped 0.9% on Friday to close at $854.50, a soft start to 2026 for the warehouse club operator. U.S. markets are closed for the weekend, leaving investors looking to the company’s next sales update for direction. Investing The timing matters because Costco’s monthly sales report can move the stock quickly, offering a near real-time read on store traffic and online demand coming out of the holiday season. It also lands as traders reset for January, with the next U.S. labor-market report in focus as a key

Guidewire Software stock slides 6.7% into weekend; what GWRE investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:12 ET — Market closed Guidewire Software, Inc. shares closed down 6.7% on Friday at $187.63 and last traded around $189 in after-hours activity. That drop pushed GWRE well below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages — roughly $215 and $220 — levels derived from past prices that many traders use as trend markers. Its 14-day relative strength index, a momentum gauge, sat near 30, a reading often associated with “oversold” conditions. The move came as U.S. stocks ended mixed and Treasury yields climbed in a session marked by uneven participation after the New Year’s
AppLovin stock slides 8% after breaking a key level — what investors watch next

AppLovin stock slides 8% after breaking a key level — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:56 ET — Market closed AppLovin Corp shares fell 8.2% on Friday to $618.32 in their latest close, with about 5.6 million shares traded. The decline left the mobile advertising and marketing software company below its 50-day moving average near $639, a line that smooths the last 50 sessions of prices and is often used as a short-term momentum gauge. MarketBeat That matters now because AppLovin joined the S&P 500 in September 2025, widening ownership among index funds that buy and sell in step with the benchmark and can amplify swings during early-year rebalancing.

BILL stock slides 7% to start 2026 despite KBW target raise — what to watch Monday

BILL stock slides 7% to start 2026 despite KBW target raise — what to watch Monday

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:01 AM ET — Market closed BILL Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BILL) shares closed down 7.3% on Friday at $50.56, a sharp drop that left the small-business payments and software name on watchlists ahead of Monday’s reopening. The move came even as Keefe, Bruyette & Woods raised its price target. ( Investing.com quote) The slide matters now because it was one of the stock’s biggest single-day declines in weeks and pushed BILL back toward the lower end of its recent trading band. With the new year starting on a choppy note for growth stocks, investors are
Klaviyo stock drops nearly 10% to start 2026 as yields rise — what investors watch next

Klaviyo stock drops nearly 10% to start 2026 as yields rise — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 10:48 ET — Market closed Klaviyo, Inc. (KVYO) shares ended the first trading day of 2026 down 9.7% on Friday at $29.32. The stock traded between $32.46 and $29.15 and saw about 4.9 million shares change hands. The move matters because Klaviyo sits in the high-growth software bucket, where valuations often swing with changes in interest-rate expectations. When bond yields rise, investors tend to pay less for profits that are expected further out. With U.S. markets closed on Sunday, attention turns to whether Friday’s slide was a one-day reset or the start of a broader
Liquidia stock heads into Monday after 9% slide and spike in bearish put options

Liquidia stock heads into Monday after 9% slide and spike in bearish put options

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:59 ET — Market closed Liquidia Corporation shares slid in the last U.S. session as options traders piled into downside protection, putting the biotech stock on watch ahead of Monday’s reopen. The move matters because the options market often telegraphs how investors are positioning for near-term swings, especially in event-driven healthcare names where single headlines can shift the outlook. Put options — contracts that give the holder the right to sell shares at a set price — can be used to hedge existing stock positions or to bet on a decline. Heavy put demand can
CoreWeave stock (CRWV) jumps 11% as filing shows looser loan covenants ahead of Monday

CoreWeave stock (CRWV) jumps 11% as filing shows looser loan covenants ahead of Monday

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:53 ET — Market closed CoreWeave said in an SEC filing after Friday’s close that it amended a key credit agreement, easing liquidity and covenant terms tied to a major secured loan facility. Shares of the AI cloud provider ended Friday up 10.8% at $79.32. The changes matter because CoreWeave relies heavily on debt financing to buy the servers and infrastructure needed to deliver AI computing capacity. Its DDTL 3.0 facility — a delayed-draw term loan that lets a borrower tap funds in stages — was set up to finance capital expenditures including GPU servers

UnitedHealth stock starts 2026 higher — here’s what matters before Monday’s open

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:47 ET — Market closed UnitedHealth Group Incorporated shares rose 1.91% on Friday to close at $336.40, as U.S. stocks started 2026 with modest gains. Managed-care peers also advanced, with Humana up 3.26% and Elevance Health up 1.06%, while the S&P 500 added 0.19% and the Dow climbed 0.66%. U.S. markets are closed on Sunday and reopen Monday. MarketWatch The next major catalyst comes Jan. 27, when UnitedHealth is scheduled to report full-year 2025 financial results and provide 2026 financial guidance before the market opens. The company said it will host a teleconference at 8:00
NexGen Energy stock jumps 11%: the next dates that matter for NXE

NexGen Energy stock jumps 11%: the next dates that matter for NXE

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 10:14 ET — Market closed NexGen Energy Ltd’s U.S.-listed shares (NXE) ended Friday up 11.4% at $10.25, after trading as high as $10.37. In Toronto, the stock closed at C$14.08, up 11.48%. Yahoo Finance The rally matters now because it comes at the start of 2026, when positioning shifts tend to amplify moves in smaller resource names. NexGen’s jump also pushed the stock to fresh highs for the past year, a level many short-term traders treat as a “breakout” signal. Zacks Sector momentum did heavy lifting. Canada’s TSX got a boost from uranium producers on
Hut 8 stock jumps 12% to start 2026 as Coinbase boosts bitcoin-backed credit line — what to watch next

Hut 8 stock jumps 12% to start 2026 as Coinbase boosts bitcoin-backed credit line — what to watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:11 ET — Market closed Hut 8 Corp shares ended the first trading day of 2026 up 11.6% on Friday, a sharp move that put the bitcoin miner and data-center operator back on momentum screens heading into Monday’s open. The stock closed at $51.27. The move matters now because crypto-linked equities have been trading as high-beta proxies for bitcoin and for investors’ broader appetite for risk, and because miners have been leaning on financing to fund expansion without issuing new stock. A larger secured credit line can buy time and flexibility when funding conditions tighten.
