Nvidia stock holds near $185 as China H200 approval report hits tape

Nvidia stock holds near $185 as China H200 approval report hits tape

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 16:05 EST — After-hours NVIDIA Corporation shares ended little changed on Friday after a report said China is preparing to approve imports of the company’s H200 artificial-intelligence (AI) chips for select commercial uses as soon as this quarter. The stock closed at $185.01, after trading between $183.67 and $185.82. (Yahoo Finance) The report matters because U.S. export curbs have squeezed a market investors still treat as a swing factor for 2026 growth. Washington said last month it would allow shipments of Nvidia’s H200 processors to China while taking a 25% fee on those sales. (Reuters)

Tesla stock rises as CES stirs robotaxi debate and policy risk

NEW YORK, January 9, 2026, 16:05 (EST) — After-hours Tesla shares rose 2.2% to $445.17 in late Friday trading, after swinging between $430.40 and $448.78. General Motors fell 2.4%, Ford slipped 1.3% and Rivian dropped 3.1%. The move came as U.S. stocks pushed to fresh highs after a softer-than-expected December jobs report, a backdrop that tends to favor high-beta names. Payrolls increased by 50,000 jobs and the unemployment rate dipped to 4.4%, a mix that reinforced expectations the Federal Reserve will hold rates at its Jan. 27-28 meeting while keeping rate-cut talk alive for later in the year.

New York, January 9, 2026, 16:19 (EST) — After-hours Sandisk (SNDK.O) climbed 12.8% to $377.41 in after-hours trading on Friday after a report said the flash-memory maker could more than double prices for some high-capacity 3D NAND chips used in enterprise solid-state drives.

The stock traded between $330.96 and $383.76 during the session, with about 19.2 million shares changing hands. (Tom’s Hardware) The talk matters because 3D NAND is the stacked flash

Micron stock jumps 5% on Moody’s upgrade, Mizuho target hike as memory bets return

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 16:05 EST — After-hours Micron Technology shares rose on Friday after Moody’s upgraded the memory-chip maker’s senior unsecured rating to Baa2 from Baa3, keeping its outlook stable, and an analyst lifted his price target. The stock was last up 5.1% at $343.71, after trading between $326.41 and $345.74. (Investing.com) The calls matter because Micron sits at the center of a trade investors keep circling back to: tighter supply in advanced memory as data centers add more compute. High-bandwidth memory, or HBM — stacked dynamic random access memory used alongside AI accelerator chips — has been

Intel stock jumps nearly 10% after Trump praise; earnings in focus

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 16:05 EST — After-hours Intel Corp shares jumped on Friday, closing up 9.8% at $45.13 after President Donald Trump praised Chief Executive Lip-Bu Tan following a White House meeting. The stock touched $45.22 intraday, with about 120 million shares traded.

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 15:52 EST — Regular session Shares of Hims & Hers Health, Inc (HIMS.N) fell 5.3% to $32.06 on Friday, after Amazon Pharmacy said it now offers Novo Nordisk’s Wegovy weight-loss pill, raising the pressure on telehealth sellers chasing obesity drug demand.

Why iRhythm stock is sliding today as Wall Street looks to JPM Healthcare Conference

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 15:54 EST — Regular session Shares of iRhythm Technologies (IRTC.O) fell 3.9% to $181.95 on Friday, after swinging between $190.16 and $179.61 in the session. The stock ended Thursday at $189.25. The drop left iRhythm behind a broader advance in U.S. equities, with S&P 500 and Nasdaq-tracking funds up about 0.8% and 1.1%, respectively. That gap matters because iRhythm trades like a growth stock — sensitive to rate moves and risk appetite — and those currents can swamp stock-specific news for stretches.

Las Vegas Sands stock slides as Macau margin jitters flare — what investors are watching next

New York, January 9, 2026, 15:40 (EST) — Regular session Las Vegas Sands shares were down about 4.3% at $59.25 in afternoon trade on Friday, after touching a session low near $59.18. The drop matters now because Sands is one of the U.S. market’s purest plays on Macau casinos, where small swings in costs and promotions can move profits quickly. Traders have been quick to fade anything that hints at weaker margins going into the next round of quarterly reports. JPMorgan said it had been fielding calls from dozens of investors after shares of Hong Kong-listed Sands China fell 4.5%

New York, January 9, 2026, 15:44 EST — Regular session Intuitive Machines Inc shares were down 3.8% at $18.88 on Friday afternoon, after a choppy session that took the stock from $17.82 to $19.73. About 14.0 million shares changed hands, a heavy day for the name. The slide came after a Stifel downgrade. The firm cut the stock to “hold” from “buy,” even as it raised its price target to $20 from $18. Analyst Jonathan Siegmann said Stifel is seeing “increased nervousness” ahead of NASA’s Lunar Terrain Vehicle decision, which he called “imminent,” and cautioned that politics could complicate the

Marathon Petroleum was little changed and Phillips 66 fell about 1.2%, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust rose 0.8%.
