PetroChina A shares in focus after Bernstein upgrade as oil jolts on Iran, Venezuela risks

Shanghai, Jan 12, 2026, 03:37 CST — Premarket PetroChina Co., Ltd.

Goldman Sachs stock: IPO mandate, CPI and earnings set up a busy week for GS

New York, January 11, 2026, 13:50 EST — The market has closed. Goldman Sachs Group Inc shares ended Friday up 0.4% at $938.98. The bank emerged as an adviser on a potential IPO for health-and-beauty retailer A.S. Watson Group.

Basic materials stocks: XLB jumps 1.6% on copper surge as Linde sets Feb. 5 earnings date

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 13:34 EST — The market has closed. U.S. basic materials shares wrapped up last week on a strong note, with the Materials Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLB) gaining 1.6% on Friday. (Nasdaq) This matters since the group’s been acting like a macro signal — delivering a fast snapshot on growth, inflation, and the dollar — right as investors gear up for earnings season and new buzz around mining deals. This also puts the sector at risk. Should metal prices dip or appetite for risk wane, those gains could unravel quickly. Copper climbed 1.9% to $12,964

Adobe cloud computing stock hit by BMO downgrade as CPI week looms

New York, January 11, 2026, 13:00 ET — The market has closed. Adobe (ADBE.O) opens Monday in the spotlight following a broker downgrade that highlighted rising competition in its Creative Cloud segment, a staple for investors seeking subscription software exposure in the cloud computing space. Timing couldn’t be more inconvenient. Stocks kicked off 2026 on a strong note, yet the upcoming week will deliver inflation figures alongside the first wave of earnings reports — a combo that could escalate a mild dip into a more pronounced slide. For Adobe, the focus has tightened. Investors demand evidence that the new generative

Trump’s payout curb keeps space and defense stocks in play ahead of Monday

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 12:55 EST — Market closed Defense contractors are scrambling for legal counsel after President Donald Trump signed an executive order tying share buybacks, dividends, and executive pay to weapons delivery timelines, three sources familiar with the issue said.

Despite the move, aerospace-and-defense stocks ended the week higher: the iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF (ITA) jumped 2.4% on Friday, the SPDR S&P Aerospace & Defense ETF (XAR) gained 2.9%, Lockheed Martin

Roche stock: $570 million MediLink cancer-drug deal puts Swiss shares back in focus

ZURICH, Jan 11, 2026, 17:40 CET — The market has closed. Roche Holding shares rose 0.4% on Friday following news that China’s MediLink Therapeutics inked a licensing deal with the Swiss pharma giant for an experimental cancer drug. The stock closed at 340.80 Swiss francs on the SIX Swiss Exchange. (MarketWatch) The deal underscores how big pharma continues to invest heavily in oncology pipelines, despite investor calls for more defined revenue prospects.

Saudi Aramco stock jumps 2.4% on Tadawul as oil firms — what to watch next

Riyadh, January 11, 2026, 18:02 AST — The market has closed. Saudi Arabian Oil Co. (2222) closed Sunday 2.4% higher at 24.22 riyals, moving within a range of 23.70 to 24.22 during the session, according to exchange figures. The day’s turnover hit roughly 162.8 million riyals. https://www.argaam.com/en/tadawul/tasi/saudi-aramco This matters because Aramco is the heaviest constituent in the Saudi market and acts as the closest proxy for crude prices that local investors can trade. When Aramco shifts, the index tends to move with it. The timing is tricky: oil is attempting to find footing after a volatile start to the year,

IREN stock on watch Monday after Bernstein calls it a “top AI pick” as crypto traders eye CPI

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 07:11 EST — Market closed IREN Limited enters Monday’s session after Bernstein named the Nasdaq-listed bitcoin miner and AI cloud operator its “top AI pick” in a 2026 crypto outlook.

SoundHound AI stock jumps 7% ahead of Monday as CES demos and TomTom tie-up keep SOUN in focus

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 07:23 (EST) — The market has closed. Shares of SoundHound AI, Inc surged 6.7% on Friday, closing at $11.75 after roughly 39.3 million shares changed hands. The rally faces its true test once U.S. markets open Monday. SoundHound’s market cap hovers around $4.9 billion, placing it in a corner of the AI sector known for rapid capital shifts. This volatility leaves the stock highly reactive to news—and just as vulnerable when it goes quiet.
