AST SpaceMobile nears Wall Street target after 19% jump in shortened holiday week

AST SpaceMobile nears Wall Street target after 19% jump in shortened holiday week

AST SpaceMobile, Inc. finished the shortened U.S. trading week up 19.15% at $85.13. The move came after Reuters said Japan plans to give up to 148 billion yen, or $912 million, to Rakuten Group for a satellite communications network. Rakuten is reportedly in talks with AST SpaceMobile to set up a joint venture for that project. No regular U.S. stock trading happened Friday. NYSE and Nasdaq both show July 3, 2026, as a market holiday for Independence Day.
Constellation Energy (NASDAQ:CEG) drops as June buyback, Calpine lock-up eyed

Constellation Energy (NASDAQ:CEG) drops as June buyback, Calpine lock-up eyed

U.S. exchanges were closed Friday for the July 4 holiday, so trading in Constellation Energy Corporation wrapped up Thursday. The week didn't look like a typical utilities move. CEG dropped 9.4% from last Friday’s close. In the same stretch, State Street SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust gained 2.2%, while Utilities Select Sector SPDR Fund lost 1.0%. Constellation ended Wednesday at $239.25, up 1.16% for the session. Still, shares traded close to Monday's intraday low at $228.63, which also marked the 52-week low. Trading volume reached 8.69 million shares, more than twice the 65-day average, according to WSJ market data.
Strategy stock pops after $1.15 billion share sale shift to cash test

Strategy stock pops after $1.15 billion share sale shift to cash test

Strategy Inc closed at $100.77 on July 2, gaining 7.9% for the day, with U.S. stock trading shut on Friday and no market activity over the weekend. Investors faced a four-day break to work through a week where the stock shifted from a straight Bitcoin play to a test of cash reserves. The comparison is key here since Strategy logged its strongest week in months, but didn’t add any new Bitcoin. The June 29 filing showed 12,669,017 MSTR shares sold in the week through June 28, raising $1.152 billion, with no Bitcoin bought. Holdings stayed at 847,363 Bitcoin bought for $64.10 billion total, or $75,651 each.
Circle stock slips on short holiday week, traders flag reserve-yield risk signals

Circle stock slips on short holiday week, traders flag reserve-yield risk signals

Circle Internet Group comes into Monday with the stock down sharply, even as USDC supply holds up. Shares finished at $64.62 on July 2, rising 4.31% for the day, but are off 12.2% from $73.57 at the close the previous Friday. U.S. markets were closed on July 3 for the Independence Day holiday, per the NYSE. Volume tells more of the story. Circle moved 38.13 million shares on June 30, when the stock dropped 17.55%. Over the four-session week, total volume hit 89.72 million. That means nearly half—42.5%—traded on that one selloff. The July 2 bounce clawed back just $1.99 from a $13.33 plunge on June 30.

SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 ETF (SPYM) assets up as it joins Trump Accounts debut

State Street’s cheap S&P 500 ETF could see new flows as a government program makes it the default pick. Parents using the savings plan will have their money parked in the State Street fund unless they actively choose a different provider. State Street’s SPDR Portfolio S&P 500 ETF, which carried the SPLG ticker until its switch set for Oct. 31, 2025, closed the short week at $87.67. U.S. markets were closed Friday for the Independence Day holiday and did not open on Saturday.

Alibaba trades near 52-week low after Kling AI funding update

Alibaba trades near 52-week low after Kling AI funding update

Hong Kong’s stock market doesn’t trade on Sundays and stayed closed last Wednesday for the city’s Special Administrative Region Establishment Day. That gave Alibaba Group Holding Limited four trading sessions for Hong Kong investors last week. HKEX's 2026 calendar still puts the market shut on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays like July 1. Alibaba’s Hong Kong stock finished Friday at HK$94.10, slipping 0.42% on the day, but up 5.1% from last week’s HK$89.50 close. The shares are still down 49.5% from the 52-week high of HK$186.20, and 6.1% above the 52-week low of HK$88.65 seen on June 26.
BigBear.ai (NYSE:BBAI) steady after Russell bump as cap overhang resurfaces

BigBear.ai (NYSE:BBAI) steady after Russell bump as cap overhang resurfaces

BigBear.ai Holdings, Inc. edged up 1.4% between the June 26 close and July 2, coming out of the quiet holiday stretch with a move that stands out for a stock just cut from the Russell Microcap Index after the latest FTSE Russell rebalance. BBAI finished the July 2 session at $3.53, down 3.02% on volume of 24.13 million shares. U.S. stock markets were closed July 3 for Independence Day observed, making July 2 the last equity trading day of the week. BBAI held up after the forced-flow date, but that doesn’t mean the stock is strong. Now the trade is less about index moves and more about whether there’s enough real demand, what the volume looks like, and if dilution risk picks up.

Nike stock finds support on tariffs despite flat North America profit

NIKE (NYSE:NKE) volume is key to stock rebound

NIKE, Inc. jumped 8.20% this week to close Thursday at $44.09 after buyers came back for the company’s margin recovery plan, while sales remained soft. The stock is still down 30.80% for 2026 and off 42.28% for the past year, according to MarketWatch data. Volume is the quieter story here. Nike traded about 54 million shares a day from Monday through Thursday, more than twice its typical volume, based on Investing.com. That kind of action argues against calling this just a holiday move. Barron’s pointed to Dow Jones Market Data showing U.S. exchange volume at 8.73 billion shares through midday Thursday, which is a bit above the year’s average.

Bitmine (BMNR) trails crypto assets after joining Russell 1000

Bitmine Immersion Technologies, Inc. heads into the new week with a simpler test than what happened with Thursday’s price action: will demand from the Russell 1000 index trim the gap between the stock and its reported crypto holdings? BMNR shares last traded Thursday, since the New York Stock Exchange marked Friday, July 3 as the Independence Day holiday. The stock finished at $14.36, gaining 1.48%. Shares moved between $14.24 and $15.25. Bitmine’s market cap is $8.18 billion, according to Investing.com.

Nebius Group (NASDAQ:NBIS) stock in focus after Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) cloud report and $46 billion contract lineup

Nebius Group N.V. isn’t trading in the U.S. through the holiday. The Nasdaq’s 2026 schedule has July 3 as a market holiday for Independence Day observed. So Thursday’s close stands as the last regular price until Monday. NBIS closed July 2 at $215.62, off $13.56, or 5.92%. MarketWatch listed after-hours at $215.89. About 24.9 million shares traded on the day, or 140% of the 65-day average. The stock fell 10.27% over the last five days.

Arm Holdings plc (NASDAQ:ARM) stock: light-volume 6.6% drop leaves AI chip bet at 67 times sales

Arm Holdings plc went into the long U.S. weekend with a sharp drop that looked heavier than the tape behind it. The shares fell 6.58% on Thursday to $315.28, the last regular session before Nasdaq shut on Friday for Independence Day observed. The less-watched number was the range. Arm traded from $358.49 to $309.74 on Thursday, a $48.75 band equal to about 15.5% of the close. Volume was 7.58 million shares, against a 65-day average of 10.92 million. That made the fall a thin pre-holiday warning, not a high-volume washout.

Dell (NYSE:DELL) faces $7.7B Texas test after recent drop

Dell Technologies Inc didn’t just offer an AI chart this holiday week. Shares dropped just 1.3% from last Friday’s close, but trading was volatile. The stock hit $438.52 Wednesday, then fell to $386.01 Thursday, finally closing at $394.32 before U.S. markets closed for Independence Day. The detail comes from a filing, not the tape. Dell said its redomestication from Delaware to Texas took effect July 1 at 12:01 a.m. Central. The company also disclosed that under Texas rules, no shareholder or group can file or run a derivative suit on Dell’s behalf against a director or officer unless they own at least 3% of total outstanding shares.

Disney (NYSE:DIS) lags S&P with Toy Story 5 and parks in focus

Disney closed at $99.50 on Thursday, up 3.96% in the final session before the holiday break. But for the week, shares were only up 0.7%, lagging the S&P 500 as traders looked for signs that parks demand and a hit from Pixar might be enough to boost earnings. The NYSE was closed for Independence Day on Friday, July 3, after the 2026 holiday calendar scheduled the break then. As a result, the last trading day before the holiday weekend fell on Thursday.
Dow hits new high as Nasdaq chips fall ahead of Fed minutes

Dow sets high while Nasdaq breadth lags, with Fed and earnings ahead

Stocks start the week with little in the way of headlines, but action's still unsettled. The Dow Jones Industrial Average finished at a record before the holiday, but the Nasdaq Composite slipped as chip stocks dropped on the last session. Markets were shut Friday for the Independence Day holiday, with July 4 landing on Saturday. The story isn’t the fresh high. It’s how stocks got there. The Dow climbed as chip names slid, the S&P 500 lost steam and more Nasdaq stocks fell than rose.
