Judge ruling puts question mark on Trump grad-loan caps for private lenders

Judge ruling puts question mark on Trump grad-loan caps for private lenders

Federal judges have stopped a piece of the Trump-era graduate loan rule, which could cap growth for private student lenders betting on expensive health programs. Lenders were set to gain as these programs shifted down to a lower federal loan level. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell in Washington blocked and put on hold the Education Department’s new “professional degree” definition, finding the agency probably exceeded Congressional limits. “Congress removed any discretionary authority the Department may have had to narrow the definition,” Howell wrote.

US futures edge lower ahead of Russell index reshuffle as chip stocks see selling

U.S. stock index futures slipped Friday, giving up ground as chip names pulled back after Thursday’s Micron-driven rally.

At 5:29 a.m. ET, Dow E-minis fell 59 points, or 0.11%. S&P 500 E-minis lost 39.25 points, or 0.53%, and Nasdaq 100 E-minis dropped 343.5 points, or 1.16%, according to Reuters.

Volkswagen 100,000-job cut report links to €23 billion investment freeze

Volkswagen 100,000-job cut report links to €23 billion investment freeze

Volkswagen AG may be in for a deeper liquidity crunch than a headline figure on job cuts suggests. Manager Magazin reported that CEO Oliver Blume is targeting up to 100,000 job cuts worldwide, wants to close four German plants, and plans to trim five-year investment by about 15% to a little over €130 billion. Volkswagen would not comment on any internal documents and said the proposals would go through standard review. Volkswagen’s planned headcount cut would take out about 15.2% of its 657,400 staff as of the end of March. With 2025 deliveries at 8.98 million vehicles, that pushes the group’s simple deliveries-per-employee to 16.1 from 13.7, assuming volumes don’t change. It’s a basic calculation, since the total workforce covers software, services, and China partnerships, but it gives investors a clearer sense of the planned cutback’s reach.

The move shows how far the trade had gone.

Bloom Energy (NYSE:BE) trades choppy after Russell Top 200 adds the AI play

Bloom Energy (NYSE:BE) trades choppy after Russell Top 200 adds the AI play

Bloom Energy Corporation slumped sharply late Thursday, and the move was about more than just a single session. The fuel-cell stock will exit the small-cap ranks and join the Russell Top 200, so investors tracking the index have to handle BE as a large-cap now. Bloom was one of the fastest movers in the AI power group. Bloom changed hands last at $309.18 as of 4:48 p.m. EDT, off $17.11, or 5.2%. Shares ranged from $350.88 to $298.05 on the day, a swing of $52.83, about 16% of the previous close. Trading volume was 13.1 million shares.

That loss is nearly 90 times its $3 billion advertising sales target for 2026.
