Denison Mines stock in focus after SaskPower line brings grid power to Phoenix uranium site

New York, January 9, 2026, 08:13 EST — Premarket Denison Mines Corp shares edged up about 0.2% to $3.33 in U.S. premarket trade on Friday, after the Canadian uranium developer said grid power is now available at the site of its planned Phoenix mine in northern Saskatchewan. In a Form 6-K filing, Denison said Saskatchewan Power Corp has completed a new 138-kilovolt transmission line to the Phoenix site, a step it has flagged as critical for first-year construction work. Chief executive David Cates called the hookup a “major Project milestone” and said the line was installed “on schedule and on

Compass stock pops in premarket as $850 million convertibles fuel Anywhere merger closing

New York, January 9, 2026, 08:02 EST — Premarket Compass (NYSE: COMP) shares were up 3.8% at $12.26 in Friday premarket action after the real estate brokerage set terms for an upsized $850 million convertible notes offering, as it heads toward its planned merger with Anywhere Real Estate. (Compass Investors) Compass and Anywhere said this week the merger is expected to close on Jan. 9, pending customary closing conditions, which keeps the spotlight on financing and near-term leverage at the combined company. (Compass) Compass also refreshed its fourth-quarter guidance in an SEC filing, saying it now expects revenue to come

IREN stock climbs in premarket as Bernstein backs the AI-cloud miner with U.S. jobs data due

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 07:44 ET — Premarket IREN Limited (IREN.O) climbed 4.7% in Friday premarket trading to $45.68, coming off a Thursday close of roughly $43.63. The AI cloud and bitcoin miner has become a quick-read gauge for hot money: half crypto stand-in, half wager on limited data-center electricity and chips. It matters right now because both sides lean on the same driver — risk appetite — and that can reverse in a hurry. Friday’s U.S. payrolls report at 8:30 a.m. ET will be the next near-term check on that appetite, since shifting rate expectations and the dollar

Phillips 66 stock jumps before the open as Venezuela oil talks keep refiners in focus

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 06:58 EST — Premarket Phillips 66 (PSX) shares were up 4.6% in premarket trading Friday at $144.22, after finishing Thursday at $137.89. The move comes as investors keep a close watch on rapid-fire U.S. policy signals around Venezuela’s oil sales, a theme that has helped buoy big refiners in recent sessions. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Washington needs “that leverage and that control of those oil sales” to push change in Venezuela, after the administration laid out plans to steer oil-sale revenue into U.S.-controlled accounts and flagged a White House meeting with oil companies.

EQT stock wobbles as U.S. natural gas prices slide on warm weather signals

New York, January 9, 2026, 06:31 EST — Premarket Shares of EQT Corp (EQT) were little changed in early premarket trade on Friday, after the U.S. gas producer fell 4.2% in the previous session amid renewed pressure on natural gas prices. Gas matters again because the latest slide has come fast, and it hits producers’ cash flow straight away. The Henry Hub spot price sank to $3.11 per million British thermal units (MMBtu) on Wednesday, down from $3.96 a week earlier, while the February NYMEX futures contract ended Wednesday at $3.525, the Energy Information Administration said.

UK stock market today: FTSE100 rises as Glencore jumps on Rio takeover talks

London, January 9, 2026, 11:36 GMT — Regular session London stocks edged higher on Friday, with Glencore’s sharp rise on takeover talk helping to steady the UK stock market after two down days. The FTSE 100 was up about 0.4% at roughly 10,088 points, with miners dominating both the winners and losers list. (MarketScreener UAE Emirates) This matters now because London’s main index still behaves like a bet on global growth and deal risk: miners, oil and banks do a lot of the heavy lifting. Investors were also reluctant to lean too hard either way before U.S. payrolls data and

Barclays stock slips as stablecoin bet, buyback update land ahead of key data

London, Jan 9, 2026, 10:58 GMT — Regular session Barclays shares dipped on Friday as investors weighed the lender’s first bet on stablecoin settlement infrastructure, announced earlier this week. The stock was down 0.2% at 483.7 pence by 1058 GMT, while the FTSE 100 was up 0.4%. (Hargreaves Lansdown) The move is small, but it lands in a market that is suddenly picky about what banks do with capital. Investors want buybacks and clean balance sheets, and they want any push into crypto-adjacent plumbing to stay inside the regulatory fence. Barclays framed the Ubyx investment as a way to connect

London, Jan 9, 2026, 10:17 GMT — Regular session Glencore shares jumped 8.4% to 447.7 pence on Friday after the miner said it was in preliminary discussions with Rio Tinto about a possible all-share deal — meaning shareholders would be paid in shares rather than cash. The company said Rio must, by Feb. 5, announce a firm intention to make an offer or say it will not proceed. (London South East) For Glencore investors, the talks drag the stock back into deal maths: what price Rio would put on coal cashflows, a big trading operation and copper assets the market
