Venture Global stock rebounds as LNG exporter flags shipping snags, trims 2025 outlook

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 10:15 a.m. EST — Trading underway in the regular session. Shares of Venture Global (VG) climbed roughly 4% to $7.69 Tuesday morning. The U.S. liquefied natural gas exporter narrowed its profit forecast for 2025 and flagged transport bottlenecks in its latest update. This goes beyond a single stock.

XRP Price Today: Why Washington’s Crypto Bill Has Traders Watching Thursday

New York, January 13, 2026, 10:14 ET — Regular session XRP edged up 0.36% in the last 24 hours, settling at $2.07 on Tuesday, with its price fluctuating between $2.04 and $2.11. (CoinMarketCap) Late Monday, U.S. senators introduced draft legislation aimed at creating a federal framework for digital assets and defining regulatory responsibilities. The bill would prohibit crypto companies from offering interest solely for holding dollar-pegged stablecoins but would permit certain rewards linked to transactions like payments or loyalty incentives. (Reuters) This is crucial now as the Senate is setting deadlines on a debate that’s long shadowed crypto prices: are

CleanSpark stock nudges higher as bitcoin firms; traders eye next catalyst for CLSK

CleanSpark stock nudges higher as bitcoin firms; traders eye next catalyst for CLSK

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 10:17 EST — Regular session CleanSpark shares rose 1.8% to $12.18 on Tuesday, buoyed by a roughly 1.8% gain in bitcoin that boosted appetite for crypto-related stocks. Marathon Digital held steady, while Riot Platforms ticked up slightly, highlighting how miner stocks can quickly diverge as traders shift focus among them. This matters because miners frequently act as a high-volatility stand-in for bitcoin. When bitcoin strengthens, miners can surge sharply; when it falls, they tend to plunge quickly as investors adjust their expectations for future cash flow. CleanSpark is pushing to broaden its market beyond just

Bitcoin price today: BTC climbs after U.S. CPI, Senate crypto bill back in play

New York, January 13, 2026, 10:09 (EST) — Regular session Bitcoin rose on Tuesday after U.S. inflation data landed as expected and lawmakers moved again on a long-sought framework for crypto oversight. The world’s largest cryptocurrency was up about 1.7% at $92,369, after touching $92,751 earlier in the session. The move matters now because bitcoin is still trading like a rates-sensitive risk asset, reacting to shifts in Fed expectations almost as quickly as growth stocks do. It also reflects how much of the demand pipeline has moved into exchange-traded funds (ETFs) — stock-market funds that hold bitcoin — where flows

IREN stock rises again as Bernstein’s “top AI pick” call meets a bitcoin rebound

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 09:55 (ET) — Regular session IREN Limited (IREN) shares rose about 1.9% to $51.28 in early Nasdaq trade on Tuesday, extending a rally that gathered pace at the start of the week. The move matters now because IREN sits at the crossroads of two crowded trades — crypto-linked cash flows and the rush to add AI computing capacity — and both are prone to sudden reversals. After Monday’s surge, investors are pressing the company’s story harder: can it line up funding, build capacity on time and keep the Microsoft contract on track without leaning too

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 08:54 EST — Premarket Shares of BigBear.ai Holdings edged slightly lower in premarket trading Tuesday, following a 1.77% gain to $6.31 in the previous session. (Investing.com) Attention turns to the coming days as the small-cap defense AI company faces a Jan. 16 redemption deadline on its 6.00% convertible senior secured notes due 2029 — bonds that can convert into shares. A regulatory filing detailed the terms, highlighting a boosted share conversion rate for notes converted in early January. (BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc.)

Chewy stock jumps on Viking Global stake disclosure — what to watch before CHWY’s next earnings

Chewy stock jumps on Viking Global stake disclosure — what to watch before CHWY’s next earnings

New York, January 13, 2026, 07:41 EST — Premarket Chewy shares showed little movement in premarket trading Tuesday, following a 5.7% jump the day before. Investors are weighing a hedge fund ownership disclosure. The stock stood at $33.92 after hours, slightly below Monday’s close of $33.99. This matters because once a big fund passes the 5% ownership threshold, it can shift the narrative around a mid-cap stock that’s often driven by sentiment as much as by fundamentals. The timing is crucial, coming just before the next wave of retail earnings—where even minor tweaks in customer demand or shipping expenses tend
