BitMine Immersion (BMNR) stock jumps as Tom Lee presses for a 50 billion-share vote

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:34 ET — Market closed Shares of NYSE American-listed BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) were last up about 15% at $31.19, after the company released fresh materials from Chairman Tom Lee urging shareholders to approve a major increase in authorized shares. Securities and Exchange Commission The vote matters now because BitMine is asking investors to expand the ceiling on how many shares it can issue — known as “authorized shares” — from 500 million to 50 billion. The company has roughly 426 million shares outstanding, close to the current cap cited in its materials. Securities and

GE Vernova stock jumps nearly 4% to start 2026 as AI-power trade rebounds

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:24 ET — Market closed GE Vernova shares ended the first trading day of 2026 up nearly 4%, a sharp rebound that outpaced the broader market and put the power-equipment maker back in focus ahead of a heavy early-January data calendar. Yahoo Finance The move matters now because investors started the year rotating into companies seen as beneficiaries of the energy buildout needed to support fast-growing data-center demand, after a choppy end to 2025.

Carvana stock heads into Monday after 5% drop, fresh insider sale notices

Carvana stock heads into Monday after 5% drop, fresh insider sale notices

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:15 ET — Market closed Carvana Co. shares fell 5.2% on Friday to $400.25, and investors will start the new week with two late-day filings showing planned insider sales. SEC The notices matter now because Carvana has been one of the market’s most volatile consumer names, and early-year trading can amplify reactions to insider activity. Rate-sensitive stocks tied to consumer financing have also been quick to swing with shifts in the interest-rate outlook. A Form 144 is a required SEC notice under Rule 144 that signals a bona fide intention to sell restricted or “control”

Visa stock falls to start 2026 as CEO sale filing and late-January earnings loom

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:24 ET — Market closed Visa Inc (V) shares ended Friday down 1.2% at $346.48, even as the S&P 500 edged up 0.2% in the first trading session of 2026. AP News The payments processor is a bellwether for consumer spending because it sits behind a large share of everyday card transactions. With earnings season approaching, traders are looking for early signals on whether holiday demand and travel trends are holding up into the new year. Payment-network stocks were mixed. Mastercard (MA) slid about 1.4% while American Express (AXP) gained roughly 0.7% in Friday’s session,

Spyre Therapeutics stock slid 6.6% into the weekend — here’s what matters before Monday’s open

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:15 ET — Market closed Spyre Therapeutics shares fell 6.6% to $30.58 on Friday, then ticked up about 2% in after-hours trading, as U.S. markets headed into the weekend. Yahoo Finance With markets shut on Sunday, the Friday move leaves Spyre starting the new week with momentum tilted lower — a reminder that development-stage biotech stocks can swing sharply even without fresh headlines. That matters now because Spyre’s valuation hinges on clinical data due in 2026, not product sales. Any shift in expectations for timing or quality of those readouts can drive outsized moves. In

The stock opened at $351.73 and finished the day with about 5.6 million shares traded, according to market data. The drop leaves Adobe starting 2026 on the defensive, a reminder that premium-priced software stocks remain sensitive to rates and growth fears.

U.S. markets are closed for the weekend, leaving investors looking to the company’s next sales update for direction. Investing The timing matters because Costco’s monthly sales report can move the stock quickly, offering a near real-time read on store traffic and online demand coming out of the holiday season.

Coinbase stock: Argentina peso-to-USDC halt sets up Monday test for COIN

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 11:00 ET — Market closed Coinbase Global (COIN.O) will stop allowing customers in Argentina to buy or sell USD Coin (USDC) using pesos from Jan. 31, the company told users, scaling back local-currency services less than a year after it entered the market. The decision lands as Coinbase pushes to diversify revenue away from crypto trading fees, which can swing sharply with market activity. Stablecoin and payments growth is a core part of that pitch, making any retrenchment in local on-ramps a point of scrutiny. U.S.-listed shares ended Friday up 4.6% at $236.53, the first

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 11:12 ET — Market closed Guidewire Software, Inc. shares closed down 6.7% on Friday at $187.63 and last traded around $189 in after-hours activity. That drop pushed GWRE well below its 50-day and 200-day moving averages — roughly $215 and $220 — levels derived from past prices that many traders use as trend markers.

NEW YORK, Jan 4, 2026, 10:56 ET — Market closed AppLovin Corp shares fell 8.2% on Friday to $618.32 in their latest close, with about 5.6 million shares traded. The decline left the mobile advertising and marketing software company below its 50-day moving average near $639, a line that smooths the last 50 sessions of prices and is often used as a short-term momentum gauge.

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 10:59 ET — Market closed Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE: MA) shares last ended down 1.36% at $563.13 on Friday, extending a four-day decline into the new year. U.S. markets are closed on Sunday and reopen on Monday. The slide matters heading into the first full week of 2026 because investors are re-pricing interest-rate expectations and consumer demand — two inputs that can shape payment-network volumes and valuations.

NEW YORK, January 4, 2026, 10:48 ET — Market closed Klaviyo, Inc. (KVYO) shares ended the first trading day of 2026 down 9.7% on Friday at $29.32. The stock traded between $32.46 and $29.15 and saw about 4.9 million shares change hands. The move matters because Klaviyo sits in the high-growth software bucket, where valuations often swing with changes in interest-rate expectations.
