Pfizer Stock Falls as CFO Dave Denton Exit Revives Questions on Growth Plan

Pfizer shares dip after CFO departure raises new questions about 2026 outlook

Pfizer dropped 2.7% to $25.21 Thursday, closing out a short week lower after its CFO said he is leaving. The news raised questions about Pfizer’s 2026 outlook and its post-pandemic turnaround. U.S. markets shut Friday for Juneteenth. That’s what investors head into next week with. Pfizer isn’t only swapping finance chiefs; the company is making the change as it works to prove its deals, cuts, and fresh drugs are enough to offset weaker COVID vaccine and antiviral demand.

Rocket Lab Drops Even After Nasdaq-100 Nod, SpaceX IPO Buzz Fades

Rocket Lab holds ground ahead of Nasdaq-100 debut after selloff led by SpaceX

Rocket Lab shares head into the U.S. long weekend with a small weekly rise and the next move coming as the stock joins the Nasdaq-100 ahead of Monday’s bell. That follows volatility among space stocks as SpaceX roiled the sector. The shares finished at $107.24 on Thursday, off 0.69%, with U.S. markets closed Friday for Juneteenth. The timing is key here. Rocket Lab joins the Nasdaq-100, the index for large non-financial Nasdaq companies, just before markets open on June 22. Nasdaq says more than 200 investment products track the index, totaling over $800 billion in assets under management. That puts Rocket Lab in front of plenty of passive funds, which simply track the index.

VW Shares Drop as Dividend Date Passes, Blume Steps Up Cost Cuts

VW Shares Drop as Dividend Date Passes, Blume Steps Up Cost Cuts

Volkswagen AG’s preferred shares dropped Friday when they started trading ex-dividend, a standard adjustment. The move came right after CEO Oliver Blume told shareholders that turning the carmaker around is moving into a tougher stage. Volkswagen preferred shares traded at €80.53 on Tradegate at 08:08 a.m. EDT, down 4.24% from the previous €84.10 close, MarketScreener data showed. The shares now trade ex-dividend, so buyers lose the €5.26 preferred-share payout, which explains part of the decline.

Infosys Ltd tumbled 6.5% on Friday to finish at 1,054.20 rupees on the National Stock Exchange, with nearly 45.67 million shares traded, after sinking as low as 1,030. The drop came as Accenture cut its full-year revenue-growth outlook and global tech recovery bets faded, dragging Indian tech stocks lower. Accenture’s results matter to investors as a read on demand for Indian IT exporters, who also serve big global clients with software, consulting and outsourcing. The Nifty IT index cut some of its early steep losses, but closed off 3.65%. The Nifty 50 dropped 0.64% to 24,013. Sensex was down 0.78% at 76,803.

Flex set to join S&P 500, trading resumes after Juneteenth break

Flex set to join S&P 500, trading resumes after Juneteenth break

Flex Ltd. will return from the long U.S. weekend in the S&P 500 after trading as a mid-cap name. Nasdaq shuts down Friday for Juneteenth, so Thursday’s close is the last cash-market price before the index update. The S&P 500 is more than a label for the market. It's the key U.S. large-cap benchmark and sets the field for funds that track its moves. Those funds have to buy or sell shares if the index changes its lineup. S&P Dow Jones Indices said Flex and Marvell Technology will move into the S&P 500 ahead of the open on Monday, which means Flex exits the MidCap 400.

US Futures Edge Up in Holiday Session With Nasdaq Out Front

Nasdaq 100 futures pushed higher Friday in muted Juneteenth action, with U.S. equity futures firm even as the NYSE and Nasdaq cash markets stayed shut for the federal holiday.

Futures contracts track expected moves for the indexes but can show thinner trading and less reliable signals during holidays. Markets Insider noted its premarket numbers are indicative and may not always match prices from the exchanges.

Intel Shares Drop Even as Tech Climbs—AI Trade Not Enough

Intel hits record close as foundry focus sharpens before week ahead

Intel shares finished the holiday week at an all-time high. President Donald Trump said Apple would work with Intel to design and make chips in the U.S., giving fresh political and commercial momentum to Intel’s long-running bid to revive its chip-making. The Nasdaq and NYSE stayed closed Friday for Juneteenth, so there was no regular U.S. trading. Timing is key. Intel is pitching its foundry operation as a real rival to Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co, but now, the market is seeing the Apple sign as more than just talk of a turnaround. Reuters said an Apple deal could bring Intel consistent orders and help it catch up to TSMC, the top contract chip producer.

QuantumScape said the joint project with Honda is a multi-year push on solid-state batteries and manufacturing techniques.
