Roche stock: $570 million MediLink cancer-drug deal puts Swiss shares back in focus

ZURICH, Jan 11, 2026, 17:40 CET — The market has closed. Roche Holding shares rose 0.4% on Friday following news that China’s MediLink Therapeutics inked a licensing deal with the Swiss pharma giant for an experimental cancer drug. The stock closed at 340.80 Swiss francs on the SIX Swiss Exchange. (MarketWatch) The deal underscores how big pharma continues to invest heavily in oncology pipelines, despite investor calls for more defined revenue prospects. Antibody-drug conjugates, or ADCs, remain a standout area in cancer R&D — leveraging antibodies to carry lethal agents directly to tumors. Timing is key for Roche. Shares are

Home Depot stock jumps as mortgage-rate plan jolts housing trade ahead of CPI week

NEW YORK, January 11, 2026, 11:24 (ET) — Market closed Home Depot (HD) shares rose 4.2% on Friday, January 9, to close at $374.64, finishing the week on a sharp upswing ahead of Monday’s open. The move came as housing-linked stocks rallied after President Donald Trump ordered $200 billion of mortgage-backed securities purchases — bonds backed by pools of home loans — in a bid to bring down housing costs. Brian Jacobsen, chief economic strategist at Annex Wealth Management, told Reuters “every little bit will help push mortgage yields lower,” but he added the policy could also fuel demand and

Alibaba stock drops into the weekend as China opens food-delivery probe; what BABA traders watch next

New York, January 11, 2026, 11:18 (EST) — Market closed. Alibaba Group Holding’s U.S.-listed ADRs dropped 2.3%, closing at $150.96 on Friday. The decline came after China announced an investigation into aggressive competition among food-delivery platforms, drawing attention to the subsidy-heavy “instant retail” battle for one-hour delivery of products—from meals to over-the-counter medicine. Both Alibaba and rival Meituan said they welcome the probe and will cooperate. (Reuters) This move matters now because delivery stands out as one of the clearest areas where Alibaba can boost user growth amid China’s packed consumer internet scene. It’s also a quick way to burn

LVMH stock ends week higher as champagne strike threat looms — what to watch Monday

Paris, January 11, 2026, 17:14 CET — The market has closed. LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE shares enter the new week amid mounting labour tensions, as a union has urged additional strike action within the group’s wines and spirits division, targeting its champagne houses. Why this matters now: after a broad rally in European equities, investors are once again reacting sharply to any disruption risks in luxury stocks, with LVMH remaining the sector’s key bellwether in Paris. The timing hits hard since the dispute revolves around pay and benefits at Moët Hennessy amid softer sales. It’s a clear sign

(Reuters) U.S. markets are closed on Sunday, leaving the tariff case as one of the rare, well-defined catalysts for big-box retailers ahead of Monday’s session. Investors are weighing if this will be

Bank of America stock: Trump’s 10% credit-card rate cap call hits ahead of BAC earnings

New York, January 11, 2026, 11:15 EST — Market closed. U.S. President Donald Trump announced a one-year cap on credit card interest rates at 10%, set to start on Jan. 20, though he didn’t clarify how the plan would be enforced. The move adds fresh policy risk for Bank of America and other lenders as trading restarts. Banking groups warned this could “reduce credit availability.” Bank of America, American Express, and Capital One did not respond to Reuters’ requests for comment. “When companies can’t price the risk properly, they’ll just reduce credit lines,” said Brian Jacobsen, chief economic strategist at

Micron stock jumps on fresh $390 target — what to know before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 11:13 AM EST — Market closed Micron Technology (MU.O) jumped 5.5%, closing Friday at $345.09 following a price target boost from Mizuho. The iShares Semiconductor ETF also climbed 2.9%, highlighting widespread gains ahead of the weekend. (TipRanks) This shift is significant since Micron is now a key barometer for data-center demand and memory prices. Friday’s surge tightens the margin for any letdown when upcoming reports arrive. With U.S. markets closed Sunday, Monday’s open will reveal if buyers continue pushing or start cashing out. Micron stands as one of the rare suppliers of high-bandwidth memory, or

Tencent Holdings stock: buyback keeps pressure on bears as AI bottleneck warning hits tape

Hong Kong, Jan 11, 2026, 23:42 HKT — Market closed.

Mastercard stock heads into CPI week after ex-dividend drop — what to watch next

New York, January 11, 2026, 10:41 EST — Market closed. Mastercard Incorporated shares slipped 0.8% Friday to $575.63, retreating ahead of a packed week of U.S. economic data and earnings reports. The payments firm has tracked alongside other “quality growth” stocks, making it vulnerable to shifts in rate-cut expectations. (MarketBeat) Here’s why it matters now: Mastercard’s fees move with card spending and international travel, making the company a real-time gauge of consumer activity. When inflation jumps unexpectedly, bond yields can spike, pushing markets to quickly revalue high-multiple payment networks. Friday’s action coincided with a dividend-related technical.
