Grab stock drops after 20,000-EV tie-up with China’s GAC — what traders watch next

NEW YORK, January 9, 2026, 07:50 EST — Premarket Grab Holdings Ltd (GRAB.O) stock fell 3.9% on Thursday to finish at $4.88 after it unveiled an electric-vehicle partnership with Chinese automaker GAC. Trading was heavy, with about 83.5 million shares changing hands. (Yahoo Finance) The announcement arrives while investors circle back to the same worry about Grab: can it keep expanding without stacking on new expenses. In its most recent earnings update, the company raised the low end of its 2025 revenue forecast to $3.38 billion and lifted its adjusted EBITDA outlook to $490 million-$500 million — a profit gauge
Intel stock bounces premarket after Trump cites ‘great’ CEO meeting as earnings loom

Intel stock bounces premarket after Trump cites ‘great’ CEO meeting as earnings loom

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 07:49 EST — Premarket Intel shares climbed roughly 3% in premarket trade on Friday after President Donald Trump wrote in a social media post that he had a “great meeting” with the chipmaker’s chief executive, Lip-Bu Tan. The bump came with U.S. index futures hovering near flat before the December jobs report and a Supreme Court ruling on Trump’s tariffs—events traders said could quickly swing risk appetite. (reuters.com) Why it matters now: Intel’s stock has tended to move fast on Washington headlines since the U.S. government agreed last year to take a roughly 9.9% stake
Plug Power stock in focus as TD Securities downgrades to Hold, cuts target to $2

Plug Power stock in focus as TD Securities downgrades to Hold, cuts target to $2

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 07:51 EST — Premarket Plug Power shares hovered around $2.32 in premarket trading on Friday after TD Securities downgraded the hydrogen equipment maker to hold from buy and cut its price target to $2 from $4. The broker pointed to slower demand and execution risks in electrolyzers — machines that split water to make hydrogen — and in the material-handling business tied to fuel-cell forklifts and service. TD said Plug still lacks a clear path to positive free cash flow, the cash left after capital spending, and flagged management targets of about $215 million in
IREN stock climbs in premarket as Bernstein backs the AI-cloud miner with U.S. jobs data due

IREN stock climbs in premarket as Bernstein backs the AI-cloud miner with U.S. jobs data due

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 07:44 ET — Premarket IREN Limited (IREN.O) climbed 4.7% in Friday premarket trading to $45.68, coming off a Thursday close of roughly $43.63. The AI cloud and bitcoin miner has become a quick-read gauge for hot money: half crypto stand-in, half wager on limited data-center electricity and chips. It matters right now because both sides lean on the same driver — risk appetite — and that can reverse in a hurry. Friday’s U.S. payrolls report at 8:30 a.m. ET will be the next near-term check on that appetite, since shifting rate expectations and the dollar
Dow Inc stock jumps, then steadies in premarket as analysts reset targets ahead of earnings

Dow Inc stock jumps, then steadies in premarket as analysts reset targets ahead of earnings

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 07:40 (EST) — Premarket Dow Inc (DOW) shares were up 0.15% at $25.96 in Friday premarket action, following a 4.52% jump that left the chemical maker at $25.92 by the prior session’s close. (MarketScreener) The shift comes as investors hunt for any indication the U.S. chemicals slump may be letting up, at least in certain areas. Bank of America lowered its price target on Dow to $25 from $26 and maintained a neutral rating, cautioning that commodity chemicals — bulk products that tend to trade on supply and demand — are dealing with “growing oversupply,”
Phillips 66 stock jumps before the open as Venezuela oil talks keep refiners in focus

Phillips 66 stock jumps before the open as Venezuela oil talks keep refiners in focus

New York, Jan 9, 2026, 06:58 EST — Premarket Phillips 66 (PSX) shares were up 4.6% in premarket trading Friday at $144.22, after finishing Thursday at $137.89. The move comes as investors keep a close watch on rapid-fire U.S. policy signals around Venezuela’s oil sales, a theme that has helped buoy big refiners in recent sessions. U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said Washington needs “that leverage and that control of those oil sales” to push change in Venezuela, after the administration laid out plans to steer oil-sale revenue into U.S.-controlled accounts and flagged a White House meeting with oil companies.

DraftKings stock rises premarket as Maine clears path for online casino gamblingNew York,

January 9, 2026, 07:33 EST — Premarket DraftKings Inc (DKNG) shares were up about 2.6% in premarket trading on Friday after Maine Governor Janet Mills said she will allow a bill letting tribal nations run online gambling to become law. The stock was changing hands around $36.92. (Public) Investors have been hunting for new states to greenlight legal online casinos — iGaming, or real-money casino games played online — a business that can throw off steadier revenue than sports betting. DraftKings closed up 3.8% at $35.98 on Thursday, though the stock remains roughly a third below its 52-week high. (MarketWatch)

Bloom Energy stock jumps again as AEP’s $2.65 billion fuel-cell deal hits the tape

Bloom Energy stock jumps again as AEP’s $2.65 billion fuel-cell deal hits the tape

New York, January 9, 2026, 07:45 EST — Premarket Bloom Energy Corp shares climbed about 13% in premarket trading on Friday after American Electric Power disclosed a $2.65 billion agreement to buy the fuel-cell maker’s equipment for a planned generation facility in Wyoming. The stock had surged as much as 14% on Thursday, touching its highest since November. (reuters.com) The filing finally pins down the price tag on a project investors have been trying to gauge since AEP and Bloom sketched out a broader framework in 2024. And it hits as power supply — not chips — is the bottleneck

Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE) stock jumps premarket as Meta nuclear deals put reactor names back in focus

Nano Nuclear Energy (NNE) stock jumps premarket as Meta nuclear deals put reactor names back in focus

New York, January 9, 2026, 07:33 EST — Premarket Nano Nuclear Energy Inc shares climbed 8.3% to $35.78 in premarket trading on Friday, after finishing the prior session up 5.4%, according to StockAnalysis. The nuclear theme is back after Meta Platforms said it signed 20-year power purchase agreements with Vistra’s U.S. nuclear plants and backed small modular reactor projects with Oklo and TerraPower. Meta’s chief global affairs officer Joel Kaplan said the deals would make Meta “one of the most significant corporate purchasers of nuclear energy.” Oklo shares jumped nearly 20% and Vistra rose about 8% in premarket trade.

NuScale Power stock jumps in premarket after BofA upgrade lifts SMR shares

NuScale Power stock jumps in premarket after BofA upgrade lifts SMR shares

NEW YORK, Jan 9, 2026, 07:19 EST — Premarket NuScale Power shares jumped about 12% in premarket trading on Friday after Bank of America Securities upgraded the nuclear technology company. The stock was up around $2.4 at $22.08 after closing at $19.67 on Thursday. (StockAnalysis) The move matters because NuScale has been a proxy trade for the market’s bigger debate on power demand and financing: how fast “advanced nuclear” projects can move from headlines to funded orders. It is also the kind of high-beta name that can gap sharply on broker calls, then give it back just as quickly once
Rio Tinto stock slides on revived Glencore merger talks as Feb 5 deadline nears

Rio Tinto stock slides on revived Glencore merger talks as Feb 5 deadline nears

London, January 9, 2026, 12:11 GMT — Regular session Rio Tinto (RIO.L) shares slid on Friday after the miner confirmed preliminary discussions with Glencore over a possible combination. Rio was down 2.2% in London by 1044 GMT, while Glencore jumped 10%, with markets also watching a U.S. jobs report later in the day. (reuters.com) The talks revive the chances of a mining mega-deal that would create a group valued at nearly $207 billion and, analysts say, would leapfrog BHP in market value. Rio’s shares slid as investors worried it could overpay for Glencore, a $65 billion miner and trader, in

Jet.AI (JTAI) stock dips in premarket after 29% jump; SEC filings flag ATM end and preferred reset

New York, January 9, 2026, 07:08 ET — Premarket Shares of Jet.AI Inc slipped about 2% in Friday premarket after surging 29% a day earlier, with investors parsing new disclosures on the company’s financing and preferred-stock terms. The Nasdaq-listed stock last traded at $0.71 and has ranged from $0.69 to $1.15 in the latest session; over the past 52 weeks it has moved between $0.52 and $11.77, according to Investing.com. The latest filing matters because it ends a share-sale program that had let Jet.AI sell new stock into the market. An at-the-market, or ATM, program allows a company to sell
