Corcept Therapeutics (CORT) Stock Drops on Dec. 16, 2025: UBS Neutral Call, Relacorilant FDA Catalyst, and Updated Price Targets

Corcept Therapeutics Incorporated (NASDAQ: CORT) ended Tuesday, December 16, 2025, sharply lower after a strong 2025 run that had pushed expectations—and valuation—into the spotlight. Shares closed at $79.44, down $7.86 (about 9%) from the prior close, after trading as low as $78.84 on the day. The day’s narrative around Corcept Therapeutics stock wasn’t driven by a single blockbuster headline like an FDA decision or a clinical-trial halt. Instead, it was a classic “high-expectations” session: fresh sell-side coverage, valuation-focused commentary, and investors recalibrating risk ahead of a major FDA catalyst for relacorilant later this month.

Compass Inc stock COMP: Latest news, analyst forecasts, and key catalysts on December 16 2025

Compass Inc stock (NYSE: COMP) is back in the spotlight on December 16, 2025, as investors juggle a cocktail of real-estate industry disruption, Big Tech “portal wars,” and a major consolidation bet that could reshape U.S. residential brokerage. By midday Tuesday, COMP was trading around $10.76 after opening at $10.42, with an intraday range roughly $10.28–$10.76 on volume above 2.3 million shares. That price action matters because it comes immediately after a sharp volatility spike tied to a single unnerving question: What happens to real-estate search traffic (and lead economics) if Google decides it wants a bigger slice?

(NYSE: PFE) shares fell sharply in U.S. trading on Tuesday, December 16, 2025, as investors weighed the drugmaker’s first look at full-year 2026 guidance, an updated 2025 revenue outlook, and fresh commentary on cost savings and capital allocation.

Texas Instruments Incorporated (NASDAQ: TXN) is back in the spotlight on December 16, 2025, as investors balance two forces moving in opposite directions: near-term pressure on the earnings story (highlighted by a high-profile Wall Street downgrade) and long-term confidence in the company’s U.S. manufacturing buildout, including a major Sherman, Texas production milestone expected this week.
