Progress Software shares dip after Q2 beat, license sales top ARR

AT&T shares slide as trading jumps, spectrum move puts income appeal to test

AT&T Inc. tumbled Tuesday, closing off 5.13% at $20.70 after sliding to a 52-week low of $20.57. Volume spiked to 128.67 million shares, 296% of the 65-day average. The S&P 500 Index added 0.79% to finish at 7,499.36. U.S. markets traded a standard session. The NYSE’s next holiday is July 3 for Independence Day. The quick take: AT&T saw about $7.8 billion in equity value wiped out in a single day. That figure uses MarketWatch’s $1.12 drop from close to close, with 6.95 billion shares in play. It’s about a third the size of the $23 billion spectrum deal AT&T struck with EchoStar Corp.. It’s also nearly four times the $2 billion Dish DBS debt maturity that tipped EchoStar’s pay-TV and wireless segments into bankruptcy.

Sam’s Club rotisserie chicken brings Walmart closer to Costco’s $5 draw

Sam’s Club, a Walmart Inc unit, scored first in a new Consumer Reports ranking of U.S. grocery rotisserie chickens, bumping Costco Wholesale Corp out of the lead. Mystery shoppers picked up chickens at as many as three stores on different dates and sent them still warm for a blind tasting in a lab. Sam’s Club undercut rivals on rotisserie chicken, with its Member’s Mark chicken at $4.98 for around three pounds—just a penny less than Costco and BJ’s average of $4.99. Sam’s also ranked higher on taste, a category where front-line price matters for warehouse clubs.

Hub Group (NASDAQ:HUBG) lawsuit date lands before restatement filing

Hub Group Inc holders have until Aug. 28 to ask for lead plaintiff status in a securities suit, even though the freight broker hasn’t yet filed its restated results. That deadline sets up a situation where the lawsuit may move faster than the company’s new numbers. Faruqi & Faruqi said Tuesday it’s telling investors about an Aug. 28 deadline for a federal securities class action against Hub. The complaint says Hub made misstatements tied to revenue recognition in 2023 and 2024 and understated purchased transportation costs and accounts payable in the first three quarters of 2025.

July 1 student loan rules put more investor risk on nonprofit degrees, new data show

July 1 student loan rules put more investor risk on nonprofit degrees, new data show

July 1 student loan changes are shaking up where the risks land. New Department of Education data show fewer for-profit college programs now face losing federal aid under the final earnings rule. Nonprofit schools, on the other hand, now have almost five times more exposure tied to programs flagged as likely to fail. Investors now need to look past tax status and focus on what programs each school runs. Investors looking at Grand Canyon Education, Strategic Education, Perdoceo Education, or private lenders like SLM Corp and SoFi Technologies usually start with federal-aid exposure. The next thing they watch is private credit demand from families once federal limits are reached.

Nasdaq edges up after-hours as more stocks join in, AI seen facing tighter price scrutiny

U.S. stocks closed up Tuesday, with the Nasdaq out front as buying broadened out beyond just AI leaders. That shift in breadth drew attention after the close.

The Dow tracks 30 large U.S. firms and weights them by share price, S&P Dow Jones Indices says.
