Micron stock slips today as China’s CXMT targets $4.2 billion DRAM IPO

Micron stock slips today as China’s CXMT targets $4.2 billion DRAM IPO

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:00 ET — Regular session Micron Technology, Inc. shares were down about 1.8% at $287.35 in late-morning New York trading on Wednesday. The stock has ranged from $284.45 to $293.91 so far in the session, with about 9.2 million shares traded. The move matters now because Micron has become a high-sensitivity bet on memory pricing, where profits can swing quickly when supply or demand shifts. After a sharp run this year, investors have shown less tolerance for headlines that hint at fresh capacity. Micron has been among the strongest S&P 500 performers in 2025, with
XPeng stock slides 6% today as Chinese EV shares retreat in thin year-end trade

XPeng stock slides 6% today as Chinese EV shares retreat in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:11 ET — Regular session XPeng Inc’s U.S.-listed shares slid about 6% on Wednesday, down 6.0% at $19.99 by 11:11 a.m. ET. The late-year session often brings thinner liquidity, which can magnify moves in higher-risk names. For investors in Chinese EVs, the timing matters because fresh demand signals arrive in early January, when manufacturers typically publish monthly delivery figures and China rolls out updated consumer incentives. XPeng’s ADRs (American depositary receipts, the U.S.-traded version of its shares) opened at $20.50 and hit a low of $19.87 before paring losses. The stock traded as high as

Molina Healthcare stock rises again after Michael Burry touts insurer; Feb. 5 earnings in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:30 ET — Regular session Molina Healthcare Inc shares were up 2.1% at $174.33 by 10:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday, after trading between $170.03 and $176.33 earlier in the session. The move matters because Molina has been highly sensitive to shifts in sentiment after cutting its 2025 profit outlook in October on higher medical costs, particularly in its Affordable Care Act marketplace business. “Approximately half of our underperformance is driven by the Marketplace business,” CEO Joseph Zubretsky said at the time. Reuters Investors are now looking to the company’s next update for signs that medical-cost

DJT stock jumps as Trump Media plans Crypto.com digital tokens for shareholders

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:02 ET — Regular session Shares of Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. (DJT) rose about 4% on Wednesday after the company said it plans to distribute a new digital token to shareholders in partnership with Crypto.com. The stock was up 3.8% at $13.05 in morning trading, after ranging between $12.52 and $13.47. Reuters The latest crypto-linked plan matters because Trump Media has been leaning into financial products to keep investors engaged and broaden its business beyond its social-media app. Traders have been quick to reprice the stock on product headlines, and the company is
B2Gold stock today: BTG flat in premarket as gold slips on year-end profit-taking

B2Gold stock today: BTG flat in premarket as gold slips on year-end profit-taking

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 08:58 ET — Premarket B2Gold Corp shares were up about 0.1% at $4.56 in premarket trading on Wednesday, little changed from Tuesday’s close. The gold miner tracked a softer tone in bullion prices into the year-end session. The timing matters. Gold miners often trade like a leveraged bet on bullion because revenue is tied to the metal price while many operating costs adjust more slowly. Thin holiday liquidity can make that linkage feel even tighter. Small shifts in gold can translate quickly into equity moves when fewer investors are trading. Spot gold fell 0.9% to
Nu Holdings (NU) stock ticks up in premarket as Nubank heads into a key earnings window

Nu Holdings (NU) stock ticks up in premarket as Nubank heads into a key earnings window

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 08:12 ET — Premarket Shares of Nu Holdings Ltd were up 0.7% at $17.01 in premarket trading on Wednesday, after finishing Tuesday at $16.88, up 1.3%. Yahoo Finance The early move matters because Nu has become a widely held proxy for high-growth Latin American consumer finance, and year-end liquidity can exaggerate price swings even on routine positioning. Zacks Investment Research said investors are turning attention to Nu’s next quarterly report, forecasting earnings per share of $0.18 on revenue of $4.56 billion; for the full year, it projects EPS of $0.59 and revenue of $15.65 billion.

D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) stock today: what’s moving shares in early premarket trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 07:41 ET — Premarket. Shares of D-Wave Quantum Inc were little changed in premarket trading on Wednesday, holding around $26.25. Other U.S.-listed quantum names were mixed, with IonQ and Rigetti Computing edging higher while Quantum Computing Inc slipped. The quiet start comes after a year of sharp swings for the stock, which is up about 213% year-to-date even after pulling back from a 52-week high of $46.75. About 12% of D-Wave’s free float is sold short — a measure of bearish positioning that can amplify moves when the stock runs. Finviz Why it matters now
NIO stock dips in premarket as China’s 2026 EV trade-in subsidies take shape

NIO stock dips in premarket as China’s 2026 EV trade-in subsidies take shape

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 07:19 ET — Premarket NIO Inc’s U.S.-listed shares fell about 3% in premarket trading on Wednesday to $5.33, after ending Tuesday up 3% at $5.50. MarketWatch The move comes as investors digest new signals from Beijing on vehicle demand support heading into 2026, a critical backdrop for Chinese electric-vehicle makers battling weak consumer confidence and an extended price war. China is front-loading 62.5 billion yuan ($8.94 billion) from special treasury bond funds for its 2026 consumer goods trade-in program, which includes subsidies for new energy vehicles (NEVs) — the local term for battery-electric and plug-in

Premium Bonds January 2026 draw date is set — here’s when NS&I results drop and why savers are rethinking

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 05:36 ET National Savings & Investments will publish the next Premium Bonds draw results on Jan. 3, after the draw is held on Jan. 2, the state-backed savings provider said on its prize checker. In the December draw, NS&I said its prize fund topped 403 million pounds and paid more than 6.1 million prizes, including two 1 million pound jackpots. NS&I The timetable matters to a mass market.

AFJK jolts higher in premarket as Aimei Health extends a wild run into year-end

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 05:02 ET — Premarket Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd shares rose 38% to $114 in premarket trading on Wednesday, extending Tuesday’s outsized move in the Nasdaq-listed blank-check company. The stock ended the prior session up 89% at $82.58 after trading in a wide range. StockAnalysis The spike matters because Aimei’s share count shrank sharply after recent redemptions, a setup that can amplify price swings when even modest buying hits a thin market. In a Dec. 2 filing, the company said shareholders redeemed 3,942,661 public shares for about $44.8 million, and that it would have about

NIO stock steadies in premarket as China rolls out 2026 trade-in subsidies for EVs

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:12 ET — Premarket Shares of China’s NIO Inc were little changed in early premarket trading on Wednesday after climbing 3% in the previous session, as traders weighed fresh signs Beijing will keep leaning on consumer support into 2026. The focus is on policy, not company headlines. For EV makers, demand in China can turn quickly on rebates, financing incentives and price cuts — and investors have been hunting for visibility into early-2026 orders. The timing matters, too. Year-end trading can be thin, and China-linked American depositary shares (ADSs) often swing more than usual when

ConocoPhillips stock rises as oil steadies; Australia gas well update and Feb. 5 earnings in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 23:19 ET — Market closed ConocoPhillips shares ended Tuesday up about 1.6% at $94.10, after trading between $92.79 and $94.31. The gain mattered because oil producers have been moving with crude into year-end, with traders trying to price 2026 supply risks against signs of a looser market. For ConocoPhillips, the next major checkpoint is guidance. The company is set to release fourth-quarter results before the market opens on Feb. 5 and host a conference call later that day to discuss 2026 guidance, it said. ConocoPhillips Oil prices finished near flat on Tuesday after Monday’s jump,
