Oracle stock slides 4% today despite UK Defence cloud pact; KeyBanc flags ORCL as “undervalued”

Oracle stock slides 4% today despite UK Defence cloud pact; KeyBanc flags ORCL as “undervalued”

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 11:05 EST — Regular session underway. Oracle shares dropped roughly 4% on Wednesday, despite the company announcing a new cloud deal with Britain’s Ministry of Defence and a positive analyst note aiming to support the stock. The shares slipped 4.1% to $194.09, following a close of $202.29 on Tuesday. This move is significant because Oracle’s stock has been behaving more like a vote on major cloud investments than just a steady database play. Shares dropped last month after the company missed its quarterly forecasts and warned of much higher spending, raising fresh questions about the

US Retail Sales Beat Forecasts, PPI Rises: What Could Move Stocks Next

WASHINGTON, Jan 14, 2026, 08:58 (EST) U.S. retail sales climbed beyond expectations in November, while producer prices edged higher. This fresh data offers investors insight into consumer demand and inflation pressures as delayed government reports gradually surface. Stock index futures slipped in early trading as investors weighed big-bank earnings and wrestled with the implications of “sticky” inflation for the Fed’s upcoming decisions.

Intel stock pops again in premarket as KeyBanc flags ‘sold out’ 2026 server CPUs

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 08:15 EST — Premarket Intel shares climbed 1.5% to $47.99 in Wednesday’s premarket, following a 7.3% jump the day before. The stock had ended Tuesday at $47.29. (Public) KeyBanc Capital Markets grabbed attention by upgrading Intel to “overweight” just a day ago, a rare bullish call. Intel is working hard to win back investor confidence as it revamps its chip strategy and expands into data centers and contract manufacturing. (Investopedia) KeyBanc analyst John Vinh linked the upgrade to “outsized hyperscaler demand,” referring to the largest cloud providers, following a trip to Asia. He noted Intel

Why XCF Global stock is moving today: SAFX rises after Bank of America mandate, Soule discloses 49.6% stake

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 08:21 EST — Premarket Shares of XCF Global (SAFX) were up about 11.5% in premarket trading on Wednesday after the sustainable aviation fuel maker said it was weighing funding options for a second plant in Nevada. The company has pegged the New Rise Reno 2 build at roughly $300 million, with an output jump that could double capacity to about 80 million gallons a year. (Renewables Now) The timing matters because XCF is still proving it can turn one operating site into a repeatable build-out. For a small, thinly traded name, the next financing package

Singapore Exchange (SGX) stock edges down as bond futures plan emerges; Feb 5 results ahead

Singapore, Jan 14, 2026, 15:35 SGT — Regular session Shares of Singapore Exchange Ltd slipped slightly on Wednesday, with investors digesting reports that the bourse is considering adding new Asian government bond futures.

(Google) This story is crucial now since SGX’s growth strategy depends largely on derivatives and market services. In those areas, a fresh contract can quickly generate turnover and clearing fees when volatility spikes. Bond futures are contracts allowing

Sembcorp Industries stock slips in Singapore as Alinta timeline looms — what to watch next

SINGAPORE, Jan 14, 2026, 15:38 SGT — Regular session Sembcorp Industries shares slipped Wednesday afternoon, last seen at S$5.97 after fluctuating between S$5.96 and S$6.02, per Investing.com data. The pullback arrives as investors await developments in Sembcorp’s planned acquisition of Australia’s Alinta Energy, a move set to broaden its power and gas operations beyond Singapore. According to an investor deck, Sembcorp aims to issue a circular and notice for an extraordinary general meeting (EGM) by mid-January, targeting a shareholder vote by the end of the month.

Genting Singapore stock edges up as Singapore market holds firm — what traders watch next

Singapore, Jan 14, 2026, 15:11 SGT — Regular session Genting Singapore shares rose 0.7% to S$0.735 by 2:56 p.m. in Singapore on Wednesday, with about 2.6 million shares traded. (StockAnalysis) The move matters because Genting is still a simple proxy for Singapore leisure spending — a bet on whether tourist footfall and premium play can keep improving into 2026, even as costs stay sticky. It also lands in a market that has started the year with a bid. “January optimism or pessimism often reflects investor confidence,” OCBC’s head of equity research Carmen Lee was quoted as saying in a note

(Investing.com) Why it matters now: ZIM’s stock is twitchy amid deal chatter and fluctuating freight rates, both notoriously volatile.

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 08:02 EST — Premarket L3Harris Technologies (LHX) shares surged roughly 10% to $376.04 in premarket trading Tuesday following the announcement of its plan to spin off the Missile Solutions unit, supported by a $1 billion U.S. government investment.

Beam Therapeutics stock today: BEAM edges lower premarket after FDA alignment sparks 22% rally

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 05:28 ET — Premarket Beam Therapeutics Inc (BEAM.O) slipped roughly 0.6% to $33.47 in premarket trading Tuesday, following a sharp 22.3% jump during Monday’s session. The shares climbed as high as $36.44 Monday and saw volume around 7.0 million shares. (StockAnalysis) The jump is significant as Beam aims to transform gene-editing science into a filing regulators can realistically accept. Traders tend to reward firms that present a clearer path to approval—and penalize those bogged down in lengthy, costly trials. Beam’s update arrives amid a jam-packed biotech calendar where grabbing attention is tough. A data readout
