Allegro MicroSystems stock jumps 6% as February Analyst Day sharpens focus on targets

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 14:38 EST — Regular session Allegro MicroSystems jumped 6.5% to $32.78 in afternoon trading Wednesday, beating a mixed pack of analog and power chipmakers. The boost came after the company announced it will hold an analyst day next month. Onsemi and Texas Instruments gained roughly 2.3% and 1.3%, respectively, while STMicroelectronics fell about 1.6%. (Yahoo Finance) Analyst days serve as investor briefings that can shake up smaller chip companies, as executives typically detail strategy, product priorities, and long-term objectives. The timing is crucial for investors — these events happen right before the next quarterly report,

Cogent Biosciences (COGT) stock jumps as FDA filing timeline sharpens — what investors watch next

Cogent Biosciences (COGT) stock jumps as FDA filing timeline sharpens — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 13:09 EST — Regular session Cogent Biosciences shares rose about 8% on Wednesday, lifting the biotech’s stock toward recent highs as investors focused on a near-term U.S. regulatory checkpoint for its lead drug candidate, bezuclastinib. The stock was up at $38.17, after trading between $35.17 and $38.34. The move matters because Cogent’s story is now dominated by filings and review clocks, not early-stage science. A clear path to FDA review — and a potential first launch — can reset how investors value a company that still has no marketed product. If the FDA accepts the

Home Depot stock dips on new AI coaching push with Rilla — what investors watch next

Home Depot stock dips on new AI coaching push with Rilla — what investors watch next

New York, January 14, 2026, 12:33 EST — Regular session Shares of Home Depot slipped 0.3% to $378.53 by midday Wednesday, following AI provider Rilla’s announcement that it will introduce real-time coaching tools to the home improvement giant. Meanwhile, Lowe’s shares climbed roughly 1.1%. The deal comes as major retailers look for ways to boost service and increase conversion without counting on a strong bounce back in discretionary spending. Much of that cash remains stuck in a “wait and see” mode, particularly when it comes to larger home projects. This aligns with the current trend toward “agentic AI”—tools that do

MSTR pops after Strategy’s $1.25B bitcoin buy — and its ‘Stretch’ stock is doing more of the lifting

MSTR pops after Strategy’s $1.25B bitcoin buy — and its ‘Stretch’ stock is doing more of the lifting

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 10:35 EST Bitcoin surged to a two-month peak Wednesday as Strategy revealed a $1.25 billion bitcoin purchase, sending its shares higher. Investors often see such moves as a signal for crypto-linked stocks. On Tuesday, U.S.-listed spot bitcoin ETFs recorded their largest daily inflows in nearly three months, fueling a risk-on vibe. (Investing.com) Strategy, once known as MicroStrategy, has become the most prominent publicly traded “bitcoin treasury” firm — one that raises funds to pile up bitcoin. According to a recent U.S. securities filing, the company bought 13,627 bitcoin between Jan. 5 and Jan. 11, shelling

Strategy (MSTR) stock jumps as bitcoin nears $97,000 and a director buys the dip

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 10:27 EST Shares of Strategy Inc rose Wednesday, buoyed by bitcoin’s surge near $97,000 and an unusual insider purchase paired with the company’s fresh crypto buys funded by debt and equity. Formerly MicroStrategy, the stock climbed roughly 6.5% to $184.30 by 10:27 a.m. EST. Bitcoin jumped about 4.9% to $96,858, while Coinbase, a key crypto player, added close to 2%. This shift counts because Strategy now behaves less like a traditional software company and more like a high-stakes bitcoin play. When bitcoin prices fluctuate, the stock tends to move even more sharply—partly due to the

New York, January 14, 2026, 10:15 EST — Regular session B2Gold Corp shares nudged higher Wednesday, buoyed by gold prices hitting fresh highs. The rally kept miners linked to bullion in focus. B2Gold (BTG) edged up roughly 0.8% to $4.63 in early trading, having reached $4.71 earlier in the session. Gold hit a record high, driving silver up as well, as investors flocked to these safe havens amid a swirl of geopolitical news and evolving expectations for U.S. interest rates. “All roads are leading to gold and silver,” said Alex Ebkarian, chief operating officer at Allegiance Gold.

Natural gas price stock UNG wobbles before the bell as Henry Hub slips — what traders watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 06:39 EST — Premarket The United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG), which follows daily changes in Henry Hub natural gas futures, dipped roughly 0.3% to $11.29 in premarket trading Wednesday, down from $11.32 at Tuesday’s close. Leveraged ETFs like ProShares Ultra Bloomberg Natural Gas (BOIL) usually show more volatile moves when gas prices shift. (Investing.com) NYMEX Henry Hub February natural gas futures slipped roughly 0.8% to $3.391 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) in early electronic trading.

Bitcoin price today: Senate crypto bill lifts Coinbase, Strategy as bitcoin nears $95,000 in premarket

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 06:15 (EST) — Premarket Bitcoin jumped almost 3% to $94,883 on Wednesday, while U.S.-listed crypto-linked stocks gained in premarket trading as investors responded to renewed efforts in Washington to establish clearer regulations for digital assets. Why this matters now: Late Monday, U.S. senators rolled out draft legislation aiming to clarify whether crypto tokens fall under securities or commodities. The bill would boost the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s authority over spot crypto markets—those where assets change hands instantly, not through futures contracts. It also addresses the contentious issue of stablecoin payouts, a hot-button topic for banks

LSEG stock ticks up after Trade Surveillance launch and fresh buyback update

LSEG stock ticks up after Trade Surveillance launch and fresh buyback update

London, 09:42 GMT, January 14, 2026 — Regular session London Stock Exchange Group plc (LSEG.L) shares climbed 0.6% to 9,026 pence by 0942 GMT. The boost followed the company’s announcement of a fresh trade surveillance product, alongside its usual buyback update. (Investing.com) The reason this matters now is straightforward: compliance costs aren’t going anywhere. Banks and trading firms face mounting pressure to detect bad behaviour swiftly, across different venues, without overwhelming staff with false alarms. LSEG’s argument also hinges on more stable fees. Its surveillance tools and associated data usually come with subscription contracts, helping to buffer the business against

Johnson & Johnson stock pops on court win — what traders watch before earnings

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 18:27 EST — After-hours Johnson & Johnson shares climbed about 1.9%, closing at $213.65 on Tuesday, and stayed near that level in after-hours trading after Delaware’s highest court pared down part of a $1 billion damages award related to its Auris Health acquisition. The Delaware Supreme Court ordered a recalculation that could shave a few hundred million dollars, including interest, off the total. This dispute traces back to J&J’s 2019 purchase of surgical-robot maker Auris and the earnout payments tied to performance milestones owed to former shareholders. “We are pleased that the court reversed the

Oracle stock slides as Goldman upgrade meets Burry’s bearish bet

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 18:04 EST — After-hours Oracle shares dropped 1.17%, ending Tuesday at $202.29, with minimal movement after hours, trimming some of Monday’s gains. During the day, the stock swung between $207.80 and $200.66. (StockAnalysis) The back-and-forth matters because major software stocks are once again reacting to shifts in interest-rate expectations. Oracle, in particular, has turned into a focal point for wagers on hefty data-center investments linked to AI workloads. Whether rates cool off or climb higher will influence how investors value long-term growth. (Reuters) Goldman Sachs stirred the pot by upgrading Oracle from “Neutral” to “Buy,”

Navitas Semiconductor (NVTS) stock slides 11% in choppy trade — what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 14:58 EST — Regular session Navitas Semiconductor shares dropped roughly 11% Tuesday, erasing earlier gains in a choppy session. The stock fluctuated sharply, hitting a high of $10.96 before sliding to $9.30. By the close, shares stood at $9.33. This matters because Navitas is one of the smaller, more volatile stocks investors turn to when trading the “AI data-center power” theme. With no major company updates expected before earnings, even routine repositioning can quickly impact the tape. It arrives just a day ahead of management’s next scheduled appearance, leaving traders to wonder if Wednesday will
