Intuit stock slides nearly 5% into weekend after insider filing — what to watch next

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:37 ET — Market closed Intuit Inc (INTU) shares closed down about 5% on Friday at $629.46, a sharp underperformance as U.S. markets headed into the weekend. The stock opened at $660.58 and traded as low as $622.31 before recovering part of the loss. The move matters now because Intuit is entering its seasonally important stretch tied to U.S. tax filing activity, when attention typically turns to demand for its TurboTax products and related services. A big one-day drop can also force investors to reassess positioning early in the year, especially in widely held software

GE Vernova stock jumps nearly 4% to start 2026 as AI-power trade rebounds

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:24 ET — Market closed GE Vernova shares ended the first trading day of 2026 up nearly 4%, a sharp rebound that outpaced the broader market and put the power-equipment maker back in focus ahead of a heavy early-January data calendar. Yahoo Finance The move matters now because investors started the year rotating into companies seen as beneficiaries of the energy buildout needed to support fast-growing data-center demand, after a choppy end to 2025. Reuters “Value is outperforming growth and AI infrastructure is up,” Jed Ellerbroek, a portfolio manager at Argent Capital in St. Louis,

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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
