Walmart stock pops after hours as Nasdaq-100 add looms and Google Gemini deal keeps traders watching

New York, January 13, 2026, 6:07 PM (EST) — After-hours Walmart’s stock climbed roughly 2% in after-hours on Tuesday, settling near $120.36. This shift is significant since Walmart is set to join the Nasdaq-100 on Jan. 20, landing it in a popular benchmark tracked by numerous index funds and ETFs.

Exxon Mobil stock climbs after-hours as Venezuela tug-of-war and oil rally grab attention

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 18:10 EST — After-hours Shares of Exxon Mobil Corporation climbed roughly 2% in after-hours trading Tuesday, driven by investor attention on the company’s stance regarding Venezuela and a recent boost in crude prices.

Oracle stock slides as Goldman upgrade meets Burry’s bearish bet

NEW YORK, Jan 13, 2026, 18:04 EST — After-hours Oracle shares dropped 1.17%, ending Tuesday at $202.29, with minimal movement after hours, trimming some of Monday’s gains. During the day, the stock swung between $207.80 and $200.66. (StockAnalysis) The back-and-forth matters because major software stocks are once again reacting to shifts in interest-rate expectations. Oracle, in particular, has turned into a focal point for wagers on hefty data-center investments linked to AI workloads. Whether rates cool off or climb higher will influence how investors value long-term growth. (Reuters) Goldman Sachs stirred the pot by upgrading Oracle from “Neutral” to “Buy,”

Netflix stock edges up after report it may go all-cash on Warner Bros assets

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 17:39 EST — After-hours Netflix (NFLX.O) shares gained roughly 1% to $90.32 in after-hours trading Tuesday following reports the streamer is considering an all-cash bid for Warner Bros Discovery’s studios and streaming units. (Reuters) Paramount Skydance has taken Warner Bros to court in Delaware and launched a proxy fight, pushing shareholders to back its $30-a-share all-cash offer. The company insists its bid beats Netflix’s cash-and-stock deal. Paramount’s tender offer, which lets it buy shares directly from investors, is due to expire on Jan. 21 unless it gets extended.

The bitcoin-focused software firm revealed a new wave of cryptocurrency acquisitions. This move is significant since Strategy now acts as a high-beta stand-in for bitcoin: its stock tends to swing more sharply than the token itself.

Strategy has been covering bitcoin purchases through share sales—a fast way to raise cash but one that risks

New York, January 13, 2026, 17:40 EST — After-hours Shares of Mastercard dropped 3.8% on Tuesday, slipping further to $544.99 in after-hours trades. The decline came amid investor concerns over President Donald Trump’s plan to limit credit-card interest rates. Visa also took a hit, falling 4.5% during the regular session. (Reuters) The policy threat arrives at a tricky time for markets. Big banks are reporting earnings this week, while traders scramble to figure out how a rate cap might affect credit availability and consumer spending.

Palantir stock (PLTR) slips after hours as Feb. 2 earnings date set and Citi turns bullish

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 17:30 EST — After-hours Palantir Technologies shares dipped roughly 0.3% to $178.96 in after-hours trading Tuesday, as investors mulled the software maker’s next catalyst following a choppy session. The near-term calendar is getting crowded. Palantir has turned into a high-stakes bet linked to corporate AI spending, and its upcoming earnings will serve as a swift test to see if that demand translates clearly into revenue and profit.

Broadcom stock closes higher as $4.5 billion bond deal tees up debt paydown

New York, January 13, 2026, 17:39 EST — After-hours Broadcom Inc shares edged up 0.7% to $354.61 Tuesday following the company’s announcement of a $4.5 billion bond offering aimed at refinancing existing debt. Why this matters now: Broadcom remains a key player in the AI hardware space, yet it carries significant debt from years of acquisitions. Any sign of weakening cash flow tends to spook investors, particularly as interest rates rise and borrowing costs grab attention. The debt shift also offers a fast glimpse into capital allocation. Tackling near-term maturities buys breathing room, but it’s not without cost — it

JPMorgan stock drops after earnings: Apple Card reserve, weak deal fees and what’s next for JPM shares

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 17:36 EST — After-hours Shares of JPMorgan Chase & Co. fell roughly 4.2% in after-hours trading Tuesday, slipping to $310.90. The bank’s quarterly results reignited concerns around credit-card performance and dealmaking activity. This matters because JPMorgan is the largest U.S. lender, and its results often shape investor sentiment across the sector. Traders are sorting which segments benefit from volatile markets versus those that rely on a steady deal flow and supportive interest rates. Politics remains a key concern, alongside profits. President Donald Trump’s plan to cap credit card interest rates for one year has rattled

Dow Jones drops nearly 400 points as credit-card cap fears hit banks, Visa and Salesforce drag

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 17:02 EST — After-hours The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 398.21 points, or 0.8%, to 49,191.99 on Tuesday, easing from Monday’s record close as Wall Street weighed fresh policy risk for consumer credit and the first wave of big earnings. The S&P 500 slipped 0.2% and the Nasdaq fell 0.1%. (AP News) It matters because the Dow had just printed a record and the market is leaning hard on earnings to keep the rally honest. Big banks are first up, and they are also the ones most exposed when Washington starts talking about credit-card rates.
