New York, Jan 8, 2026, 06:32 EST — Premarket Intel shares (INTC.O) jumped about 6.4% in premarket trading on Thursday to $42.63, extending a CES-fuelled rally after the company laid out new laptop processors built on its 18A manufacturing process.

Meta stock slips premarket as China opens probe into Manus AI acquisition

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 06:25 EST — Premarket Meta Platforms (META.O) shares slipped 0.4% in premarket trading on Thursday after China said it would assess and investigate the company’s acquisition of artificial intelligence startup Manus.

Nvidia’s China upfront-payment demand puts AI stocks in focus ahead of U.S. payrolls

New York, January 8, 2026, 06:41 (EST) — Premarket Nvidia shares rose about 1% to $189.11 in premarket trade on Thursday after sources said the chipmaker is demanding full upfront payment from Chinese buyers of its H200 artificial-intelligence chips. The terms leave customers no option to cancel or ask for refunds once an order is placed, the people said. Reuters The tighter stance matters because China demand is a swing factor for AI stocks that have powered the rally, and policy risk is now showing up in contracts, not just headlines.

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 06:25 ET — Premarket Micron Technology (MU) shares fell 1.1% in premarket trading on Thursday to $339.55. The memory-chip maker said it will break ground on its $100 billion “megafab” project in Onondaga County, New York on Jan. 16, after clearing environmental reviews and permits. Micron Technology The date puts a concrete marker on a project investors see as central to Micron’s long-term supply plan, just as AI servers soak up DRAM — dynamic random access memory used in servers, PCs and phones — and strain capacity.

New York, January 8, 2026, 06:21 EST — Premarket Nvidia shares rose about 1% to $189.11 in premarket trading on Thursday after the chip designer demanded full upfront payment from Chinese customers for its H200 artificial-intelligence (AI) chips, two people briefed on the matter said. Chinese technology companies have placed orders for more than 2 million H200 chips priced at around $27,000 each, outstripping Nvidia’s inventory of 700,000 units, the people said.

Oil prices rise on U.S. stock draw and Venezuela headlines; Exxon stock steadies after earnings-hit warning

NEW YORK, Jan 8, 2026, 06:20 EST — Premarket Exxon Mobil shares were up about 0.1% in premarket trade at $118.61 on Thursday, after ending the prior session down 2.1%. In a regulatory filing, Exxon said lower crude prices could trim fourth-quarter upstream — its oil and gas production business — earnings by $800 million to $1.2 billion.
