Home Depot stock price jumps 2.5% as tariff fears cool — what’s next for HD shares

NEW YORK, Jan 21, 2026, 20:49 EST — The market has closed. Home Depot’s stock climbed 2.54% on Wednesday, closing at $384.64 following a choppy two-day run for the home-improvement giant. (Yahoo Finance) This matters because Home Depot stands at the crossroads of the two forces steering tape action this week: trade-policy news and the interest-rate trajectory that shapes housing and major renovation spending. Its next key moment comes Feb. 24, when the company will release fourth-quarter earnings. (Home Depot Investor Relations) Sentiment turned sharply on Tuesday. Home Depot dipped 1.33% to $375.11 after the previous session, yet it outperformed

BitMine Immersion (BMNR) stock ends higher after $14.5B crypto holdings update as market looks to next session

New York, January 21, 2026, 20:47 EST — Market closed Shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc (BMNR) rose 3.9% on Wednesday, closing at $29.35 following the company’s update on the scale of its crypto and cash reserves. The stock inched higher in late after-hours trading. (Investing.com) The numbers are significant because BitMine is behaving more like a leveraged proxy for ether — the cryptocurrency behind the Ethereum blockchain — instead of a typical miner or hosting business. When ether’s price moves, the company’s net asset value often shifts in tandem, dragging the stock along with it. This week’s update also

Chevron stock price ticks up as report flags $1 billion-plus Singapore asset sale talks

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 20:43 EST — Markets have closed for the day. Chevron Corporation shares closed Wednesday up roughly 0.8% at $166.73, after fluctuating between $165.51 and $168.45 during the session. According to sources speaking to Reuters, the oil giant is in the final stages of negotiations to offload its Singapore refining and fuel distribution operations to Japan’s Eneos and commodity trader Glencore. The deal, expected to exceed $1 billion, is aimed for completion in the first quarter. The assets on the table include Chevron’s 50% share in the 290,000-barrel-per-day Singapore Refining Co plant, along with Caltex-branded retail

Applied Digital stock slides, then swings hard as new Buy call pegs $42 target — what’s next for APLD

New York, January 21, 2026, 19:54 (EST) — After-hours Applied Digital (APLD.O) shares dipped 1.1%, finishing Wednesday at $35.06. Earlier, the stock swung between $38.00 and $32.33. Volume hit roughly 42.1 million shares. The stock now acts as a stand-in for a tight race: who can grab power, scale quickly, and lock in lengthy contracts for AI workloads. Even minor news can trigger shifts, and the volatility runs both directions. This matters because the market is valuing future megawatts — the power capacity that determines how many servers a data center can support — well before the facilities are operational.
P&G stock price slips ahead of earnings: what PG investors watch Thursday

P&G stock price slips ahead of earnings: what PG investors watch Thursday

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 20:26 EST — Market closed. Procter & Gamble shares slipped 0.6% to $146.06 on Wednesday, retreating from gains seen in the previous session. The consumer goods giant is poised to release earnings before the next U.S. trading day. (MarketScreener) This update is significant because P&G products fill everyday shelves. Selling detergent, diapers, and toothpaste means even slight changes in volume or pricing might point to broader shifts in how households manage their budgets. Investors have been leaning into “staples” stocks for a safe harbor amid the noise. P&G’s guidance often moves the needle beyond just

Constellation Energy stock slips again after Wells Fargo trims target — what CEG investors watch next

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 20:13 EST — Market closed Shares of Constellation Energy Corporation slipped 0.35%, finishing Wednesday at $294.37. The stock is now down roughly 14% since closing on January 15. (StockAnalysis) This matters because Constellation is at the heart of a heated debate over who covers the costs of new power as electricity demand climbs, particularly within PJM Interconnection, the largest U.S. grid. The White House and several governors have pushed for changes that might reshape how PJM prices capacity, a crucial income source for generators. (Reuters) On Tuesday, Wells Fargo analyst Shahriar Pourreza cut his price

Freeport-McMoRan stock nudges higher into earnings as copper steadies — what to watch Thursday

New York, January 21, 2026, 20:11 EST — The market has closed. Shares of Freeport-McMoRan (FCX.N) edged up 0.9%, closing at $60.58 on Wednesday. The stock fluctuated between $59.75 and $62.12 during the session as investors prepared for the copper miner’s quarterly earnings, set to drop before Thursday’s open. (FinancialContent) Timing is key. Freeport’s results come as copper hovers near record highs, with headline risk fueling quick, volatile swings in metals and mining stocks. Even a minor adjustment to output or cost forecasts can rapidly shift estimates. Copper, the company’s key profit driver, climbed 0.4% to $12,796 a metric ton

Bank of America stock: BAC holds near $52 after $1B employee stock award as credit-card rate cap returns to focus

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 20:16 EST — Market closed. Bank of America Corp shares closed Wednesday down 0.06% at $52.07, following a 1.64% drop Tuesday. Over two days, the stock barely budged in a week marked by shifting policy-driven swings in financial stocks. (Source: FinancialContent price data) The subdued finish arrived as two issues weighed on BAC heading into Thursday: new equity grants for employees and a fresh battle in Washington over credit card fees. This matters since Bank of America has stakes in both. Stock-based compensation impacts share count, and lending rules combined with rate forecasts can squeeze

During the day, the stock fluctuated between $1,482.60 and $1,541.43. It remains roughly 4% shy of its 52-week peak of $1,581.34 set on Jan. 16. The S&P 500 climbed 1.16%, while the Dow added 1.21%. (MarketWatch) The move came after a steep 5.21% decline on Tuesday, with KLA falling to $1,486.18 amid a broader market selloff. That day saw trading volume exceed 1.7 million shares. (MarketWatch) KLA is gearing up to release its fiscal

Seagate (STX) stock jumps 6% after a fresh BNP upgrade — what traders are watching into earnings

New York, January 21, 2026, 19:50 EST — After-hours Shares of Seagate Technology Holdings plc climbed 5.6% to $344.22 in after-hours trading Wednesday, boosted by optimistic analyst upgrades for the hard-drive maker. The stock fluctuated between $324.06 and $349.90 during the session, with roughly 4.7 million shares traded. BNP Paribas analyst Karl Ackerman bumped Seagate up to Outperform from Neutral, setting a $380 price target. He pointed to strong data center storage demand as a reason the industry upcycle might last longer than initially thought. Ackerman also argued that a valuation reset to “over 20x” earnings for Seagate and Western

Goldman Sachs stock ticks up after-hours as Ben Frost gets top investment banking role

New York, Jan 21, 2026, 19:35 EST — After-hours Goldman Sachs Group Inc has promoted consumer-and-retail banker Ben Frost to chairman of investment banking, elevating a dealmaker who ran some of the firm’s biggest sector mandates last year. The Wall Street bank’s shares were up 1.1% at $953.01 in after-hours trading. (Reuters) The move lands as big banks try to lock in senior coverage ahead of what they see as a fuller 2026 calendar for corporate deals and capital raising. For Goldman, investment banking remains one of the fastest ways to swing revenue — when boards move, fees follow. On
