Salesforce stock slips after-hours as Spring ’26 AI agent push lands — what to watch next

New York, January 9, 2026, 19:31 EST — After-hours Salesforce (CRM) shares slipped about 0.2% in after-hours trading on Friday after the company laid out its Spring ’26 product release, a set of updates aimed at pushing “AI agents” deeper into sales and service work. Salesforce said the rollout starts Feb. 23 and adds tools such as an AI-led “Sales Workspace” and “Proactive Service.” (Salesforce) The timing matters because big software names are being asked a simple question early in 2026: can they turn all the AI talk into checks. Investors have been quick to punish anything that looks like

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 19:24 EST — After-hours SoFi Technologies, Inc. shares closed down 1.1% at $27.40 on Friday and were last hovering near that level in late trading, after a week of choppy moves that left the stock out of step with the broader market’s record run.

Nike stock rises after RTFKT sale, but Needham downgrade warns turnaround could drag

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 19:35 (EST) — After-hours Nike shares rose 1% on Friday to close at $65.92, as investors looked past a fresh analyst downgrade and a round of headlines around the company’s cleanup effort. The stock was little changed in extended trade. Needham downgraded Nike to “hold” from “buy” on Thursday, saying the turnaround is moving more slowly than expected. The firm flagged “sell-in” — shipments into retailers — and said heavier product flows into North American wholesale could bring “near-term challenges” if “brand heat” does not keep up; it also warned that China and Converse look

UnitedHealth (UNH) stock slips as Congress summons CEO; investors eye earnings date

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 19:28 EST — After-hours UnitedHealth Group shares fell roughly 0.8% on Friday, lingering around $344 in after-hours trading as U.S. lawmakers intensified scrutiny of major insurers ahead of hearings scheduled for later this month. (stockanalysis.com) The hearings are significant as policy uncertainty is creeping back into managed care valuations.

Visa stock slips after-hours as AI deepfake vote, CPI test loom for payments giant

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 19:18 EST — After-hours Visa Inc shares slipped in after-hours trading on Friday, closing down 0.7% at $349.77. Mastercard fell 0.8% and American Express dropped 1.9% in the same session. The move came even as the S&P 500 logged a record close after a mixed U.S. jobs report kept rate-cut hopes alive. U.S. payrolls rose by 50,000 in December and the unemployment rate dipped to 4.4%, a print that helped support expectations for easing later this year — measured in “basis points,” or hundredths of a percentage point.

Nebius stock (NBIS) whipsaws after U.S. jobs report — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 19:32 EST — After-hours Nebius Group N.V. shares were last up about 0.6% at $97.93 in after-hours trading on Friday, after swinging as high as $104.94 and as low as $97.25 during the session. The late-day churn matters because Nebius sits in a corner of the market where sentiment can turn fast: high-growth, capital-hungry AI infrastructure. With the U.S. rate outlook still in flux, traders have been quick to press momentum and just as quick to take profits when the tape wobbles. Wall Street ended at record highs after data showed U.S. job growth came

RTX stock alert: Trump’s buyback clampdown hangs over defense names as $130 mini-tender deadline nears

New York, January 9, 2026, 19:15 ET — After-hours RTX Corp shares rose about 0.7% to $188.50 in after-hours trade on Friday as investors kept sorting through a Trump administration order that could curb dividends and share buybacks at major defense contractors. (Reuters) The order matters because cash returns are a big part of the defense-stock pitch. Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, General Dynamics, L3Harris and RTX paid roughly $8 billion in dividends over the last 12 months and bought back about $10 billion of stock, Morgan Stanley data compiled by Reuters showed.

The stock traded about 167 million shares. The move followed President Donald Trump’s order for $200 billion of mortgage bond purchases; Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte said Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would execute the buys.

New York, January 9, 2026, 18:50 (EST) — After-hours Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT) shares rose 4.7% to $542.92 on Friday, extending a rebound in U.S. defense stocks after Truist upgraded the company to “Buy.” (Wall Street Journal) The move matters now because Washington has put shareholder payouts in the firing line. President Donald Trump has pledged to block dividends and share buybacks — where companies repurchase their own stock — at defense contractors until they speed up weapons production, a stance that can reshape how investors value the group.

Exxon stock was up 1.4% at $124.61, after trading between $122.31 and $124.86. (Reuters) The shift matters because it puts Venezuela — and its oil contracts — back on the map
