Shopify (SHOP.TO) heads into July with buyback in focus after holiday week spike

Shopify Inc. closed out the U.S. holiday-shortened week up 2.2% from last Friday to Thursday, all of it coming on Wednesday’s move. The stock traded sideways most of the week. The Nasdaq was closed July 3 for the Independence Day holiday. Shopify ended Thursday at $119.46, dropping 1.78% with 6.76 million shares traded. That’s under the 65-day average volume some market data providers use. On Shopify’s investor site, the stock lists a 52-week range of $94.00 to $182.19.
Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) trades at half reported AI orders as holiday week wraps up

Super Micro Computer (NASDAQ:SMCI) trades at half reported AI orders as holiday week wraps up

U.S. stock markets are closed Friday, with both Nasdaq and NYSE marking July 3 as a holiday for Independence Day. Super Micro Computer, Inc. ends up with just four trading days this week, turning a June AI order announcement into a quick reality check for the stock. Super Micro finished Thursday at $27.22, putting its equity value around $18.84 billion. That’s less than half of the $39 billion in AI server orders the company reported last month from over 20 customers. The ratio—0.48—is the key number this week: the market isn’t valuing the order book anywhere near face value while legal and financing risk are still in focus.

Netflix (NASDAQ:NFLX) jumps, adding $14.6B in market cap as Nasdaq edges down ahead of July 4

NEW YORK, July 3, 2026, 14:14 EDT. Netflix shares surged, sending its value up $14.6 billion, while the Nasdaq traded lower ahead of the July 4 holiday. Netflix, Inc. heads into the holiday with a quick and focused rally. Most of the stock's gain over the last five days hit in a single trading session, where volume jumped about 33% above its 65-day average.

RBC stock near record leaves analyst targets behind as ETF weight pulls harder

Royal Bank of Canada shares held near the C$290 line on Friday, with Toronto setting the live price while Wall Street shut for Independence Day observed. The bank’s U.S.-listed shares were not trading; NYSE lists July 3 as the 2026 Independence Day holiday, while TMX lists the day as a U.S. holiday with special settlement for issues trading in U.S. dollars. The stock was down 0.06% at C$290.27 at 13:53 EDT, still up 24.04% this year and 0.77% over five sessions. The odd part is the analyst tape: MarketScreener’s 15-analyst data put the average target at C$271.89, below the market price, while the mean call stayed at “outperform.”

MARA Holdings (NASDAQ:MARA) finishes week under exec tax price, Long Ridge figures eyed

Nu Holdings (NYSE:NU) buyback seen as limited against $2.8B in shares traded during holiday week

Nu Holdings Ltd. comes into Monday trading with the board-approved $1 billion buyback in focus, as investors weigh if the move means much while daily turnover easily tops that figure over a handful of sessions. The New York Stock Exchange’s website shows July 3 as the observed holiday for Independence Day in 2026, so Thursday’s close is the last U.S. print for NU before markets reopen after the break next week. Nu finished Thursday up 1.64% at $13.61, trading about 55.85 million shares. The company’s market cap was roughly $65.1 billion.

Dow sets new record close as Apple and Amgen help blue chips, AI stocks lag

Dow hits record, chips drop 11% as short week focuses on jobs

NEW YORK — The Dow Jones Industrial Average heads into the July 4 break at a record, but action below the surface is not as solid as the close looks. The NYSE counted Friday, July 3, as the holiday, so last cash trading was Thursday. The Dow closed at 52,900.07 after hitting 52,903.85—its 52-week high—according to MarketWatch data. The S&P 500 was flat. The Nasdaq Composite slipped while the Dow climbed almost 600 points.
Nasdaq under pressure with chip names lower; futures drift before jobs data

Dow hits another high but chip names slip as markets eye Fed minutes

U.S. stock markets did not hold regular trading hours Friday since the July 4 holiday was observed early this year, with Independence Day landing on Saturday. That made Thursday’s close the final full price for U.S. stocks ahead of the long weekend. On normal days, NYSE’s core session runs from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern, with Nasdaq following the same hours. The odd thing this week wasn’t market softness. It was about where the selling showed up. On Thursday, NYSE advancers led decliners 1.42 to 1, but on the Nasdaq, decliners edged out advancers 1.05 to 1. The S&P 500 finished up by just one-hundredth of a point. That’s important for investors since the index’s steady look actually masked a sharper rotation under the surface.

Keel ended its last U.S. session Thursday at $4.59, off 79 cents, or 14.68%, on volume of 49.9 million shares.

SpaceX stock gets hit as Nasdaq-100 weight triggers short bets

Space Exploration Technologies Corp. heads into the long U.S. weekend with a flow trade in focus. Index funds are still looking to buy shares, but shorts have piled into the part of the stock that's available to trade. That setup could draw more attention than the latest analyst note. Nasdaq’s calendar shows U.S. equity and options markets will be closed Friday for Independence Day observed, with Thursday’s session the last regular close before the week ahead. SpaceX finished Thursday at $162.00, up 2.83%. Volume reached 61.3 million shares.

Palantir surges, adding $23 billion as Nvidia AI tie-up pushes valuation

Palantir stock takes holiday break with $117 billion AI control-layer bet hanging

U.S. stock markets were closed Friday for the Independence Day observed holiday, so Palantir Technologies Inc. only had a four-day trading week. That ended a rough June, with the stock starting July on a firmer note. The New York Stock Exchange will also observe Independence Day on Friday, July 3 in 2026, while regular trading runs 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET otherwise. Palantir didn’t just come back; it outperformed. Shares finished at $129.30 on Thursday, up 2.84% for the session, while SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust fell $0.85 and Invesco QQQ Trust Series 1 dropped $12.33 in the final U.S. trade before the holiday.

SL Science Holding (NASDAQ:SLBT) jumps, trades at 1,500x ’25 sales after Nasdaq debut

SL Science Holding Limited closed the U.S. holiday-shortened week on a strong move, but with a $3.36 billion market cap and just $2.20 million expected 2025 revenue, valuation remains a sticking point. Nasdaq is closed Friday for the Independence Day holiday after listing July 3, 2026, as a closure on its holiday schedule. The last regular session saw the stock close at $5.99, a jump of $1.54, or 34.61%. The shares moved between $4.30 and $6.25, with 1.22 million traded. Google Finance had it at $5.76 after hours, off 3.84%.
Genuine Parts (NYSE:GPC) shares pop as O’Reilly Automotive (NASDAQ:ORLY) bid tests value

Genuine Parts (NYSE:GPC) shares pop as O’Reilly Automotive (NASDAQ:ORLY) bid tests value

NYSE markets are closed Friday for the Independence Day holiday. Thursday's session was the last trading day this week for Genuine Parts Company, which finished at $132.57, gaining 12.9% for the day. The stock is up about 14.3% from a June 26 close of $116.02. The question for investors now isn't only if O’Reilly Automotive will pick up GPC’s auto-parts arm. The market is also starting to focus on the value of what’s left—Motion, GPC’s industrial parts division. Bloomberg reported the auto unit could fetch $10 billion or more, Reuters said, and noted GPC might still hold onto the business, go for a spinoff, or wait for another offer. GPC had no comment, according to Reuters.

  • Schneider Electric Seen 35% Over Price After $3.1B Cognite Move
    July 6, 2026, 8:51 PM EDT. Schneider Electric (ENXTPA:SU) is up 120.6% over five years, but DCF points to the shares trading about 35% above intrinsic value. The stock's around €278.35, while estimates put fair value closer to €206. With the planned $3.1 billion buyout of industrial AI player Cognite, Schneider could add more software and data-driven sales, which might help support the premium-though the deal brings integration risk. The P/E stands at 37.6x, above the norm, showing what the market's already pricing in. Shares have gained 26.2% in the past year but trailed sector rivals. Investors face a tradeoff between future growth bets and a lofty valuation. Simply Wall St still calls it expensive using six separate checks.
