Rivian stock slides after 2025 deliveries miss estimates; Feb. 12 earnings now the next test

Rivian stock slides after 2025 deliveries miss estimates; Feb. 12 earnings now the next test

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 05:57 ET — Market closed. Rivian Automotive Inc (RIVN.O) shares last closed at $19.41, down about 1.5%, after the electric-vehicle maker’s year-end delivery update landed short of Wall Street expectations. The stock traded between $18.90 and $20.70 in the session, with about 42.7 million shares changing hands. The delivery print matters because it lands as Rivian tries to defend demand for premium-priced models and line up a lower-cost launch in 2026. Rivian said it delivered 42,247 vehicles in 2025, down about 18% from a year earlier; analysts had expected 42,500, and fourth-quarter deliveries of 9,745

Archer Aviation (ACHR) stock jumps 8% into 2026 as insider sale filing lands

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 05:46 ET — Market closed. Archer Aviation Inc shares closed up 8.1% at $8.13 on Friday, the first U.S. trading session of 2026, after swinging sharply higher through the day. Archer The move put fresh attention on electric air-taxi developers, a corner of the market where sentiment can turn quickly on funding needs and the pace of regulatory sign-offs. Archer and its rivals are still in development mode, so traders often latch onto any signal around capital, timelines or insider activity. That sensitivity was in focus late Friday after an executive filed a notice that

Chevron stock closes higher as Venezuela export halt report puts CVX in focus

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 03:47 ET — Market closed Chevron Corp (CVX) shares rose 2.3% to close at $155.90 on Friday. Weekend reports said Venezuela’s oil exports have been paralyzed, including tankers chartered by state-run PDVSA’s main partner Chevron. Port captains have not received requests to authorize loaded ships to set sail, and a prolonged halt could force output cuts as storage fills, the sources said. Reuters The timing matters for energy traders because crude markets are trying to find direction after a bruising year. Brent settled at $60.75 a barrel and U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) ended at

Wave Life Sciences stock drops 6% as WVE traders size up next obesity data

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 20:55 ET — Market closed Wave Life Sciences Ltd (WVE) shares closed down 6.2% on Friday at $15.95, ending the first full U.S. trading session of 2026 with a sharp pullback. The slide matters because Wave has become an event-driven obesity trade after a December clinical update on its experimental fat-loss drug drew heavy attention from biotech investors. With U.S. markets closed for the weekend, traders are now looking past Friday’s drop to the next scheduled clinical follow-ups and to how Wave’s recent fundraising affects the stock’s risk-reward into 2026.

Guidewire stock sinks 6.7%: GWRE slides below $190 as traders eye next earnings

New York, January 3, 2026, 20:07 ET — Market closed Shares of Guidewire Software fell 6.7% on Friday to $187.63, after swinging between $187.10 and $202.00 in the session. About 807,000 shares changed hands. The drop matters because Guidewire is a widely followed bet on insurers’ shift to cloud-based core systems, a transition investors have treated as a multi-year growth story. Rate expectations still loom over growth stocks, and sharp moves can follow when investors reassess how much they want to pay for earnings expected further out. For Guidewire, the focus is its shift from license sales to cloud subscriptions.

BILL stock drops 7% to start 2026 as rate jitters hit fintech; KBW lifts target

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 20:13 ET — Market closed Shares of BILL Holdings, Inc. fell 7.3% on Friday to $50.56, a sharp drop on the first U.S. trading session of 2026. The decline came as investors leaned toward value stocks and away from growth names while U.S. Treasury yields moved higher. The Dow and S&P 500 ended up on the day, while the Nasdaq dipped, according to Reuters data. Reuters That matters for BILL because the fintech is often priced like a growth software company, which can make it more sensitive to shifts in rate expectations early in the

Pony AI stock jumps nearly 11% after CLSA starts coverage; what traders watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 19:34 ET — Market closed Pony AI Inc shares surged 10.8% on Friday to close at $16.07, and were last down 0.4% at $16.00 in after-hours trading, according to Investing.com data. Investing The move matters because Pony AI sits in a high-volatility corner of the market — autonomous driving — where incremental catalysts like new analyst coverage can move the stock sharply, especially at the start of a new year when portfolios are being reset.

American Airlines stock: What investors are watching after FAA Caribbean airspace shutdown

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 18:32 ET — Market closed American Airlines Group Inc. stock heads into the next U.S. trading session in focus after the Federal Aviation Administration shut parts of Caribbean airspace to U.S. carriers, forcing widespread flight cancellations on Saturday. The closure followed a U.S. military operation in Venezuela that President Donald Trump said resulted in the capture of Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro; airline analyst Robert Mann said, “They have a day’s worth of passengers basically.” Reuters The disruption matters now because airlines can lose revenue when flights are canceled and also incur extra costs to rebook

Denison Mines stock jumps nearly 14% after Phoenix uranium project construction-ready update

New York, Jan 3, 2026, 18:15 ET — Market closed Denison Mines Corp’s U.S.-listed shares (DNN) ended Friday at $3.03, up 13.9%, after a company update on its flagship Phoenix uranium project. The stock traded between $2.74 and $3.07 and posted about 68.3 million shares of volume. Yahoo Finance The move matters because Denison is trying to shift from years of engineering and permitting into a build phase. For a pre-production miner, the market often prices permit momentum more heavily than quarterly noise. Cost discipline is also front and center for uranium developers as inflation pressure shows up in capital

Shell stock jumps to start 2026 as buyback update lands ahead of OPEC+ meeting

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 17:02 ET — Market closed Shell’s U.S.-listed shares (SHEL) rose $1.96, or 2.7%, to close at $75.44 on Friday, the first U.S. trading day of 2026. BP gained 3.2%, Exxon Mobil rose 1.9% and Chevron added 2.3%. The move matters because integrated oil majors are beginning the year with investor attention still anchored on cash returns as crude prices grapple with oversupply worries. For Shell, buybacks and dividends sit at the center of the equity story. Repurchases reduce the share count, which can lift per-share metrics when commodity prices are volatile.
