Apple Stock Rose 2%, but Broadcom’s Market-Value Gain Was Nearly Twice Apple’s After $30 Billion Pact

Apple Inc. ended Friday at $315.32, up 2.2% from the July 2 close, after a week dominated by a chip-supply pact worth more than $30 billion with Broadcom Inc.. Broadcom rose 11.0%; applying each company’s latest disclosed share count, that implies roughly $188 billion of added equity value for Broadcom, against about $98 billion for Apple. U.S. cash markets were closed Saturday.

AGNC’s Yield Sits at 13%, but Shares Trade at a Hefty Premium

AGNC Investment Corp. closed Friday at $11.13. The company left its monthly common dividend steady at 12 cents. That gives an annualized yield of 12.9%. The spread versus its tangible net book value is wider: shares trade 32.8% above March 31 net book value of $8.38, or $2.75 above net assets. That premium is close to 23 months’ worth of dividends. Tangible net book value does not include goodwill.

ExxonMobil posts $5B profit gain, shares slide $12B in value

ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation closed Friday at $138.88, down 2.0% from Tuesday’s close. This came even after the company indicated about $5 billion in second-quarter earnings growth from Q1. U.S. markets were closed for the weekend. The parent company switched to the ExxonMobil Holdings name on July 2, replacing Exxon Mobil Corporation as the NYSE-listed entity, but kept the XOM ticker.

3M (MMM) Shares Rose $1.1 Billion on Friday as Expectations for Earnings Moved Higher

3M Company tacked on about $1.1 billion in market value Friday as shares climbed $2.18, or 1.4%, to close at $157.52 after New York filed another lawsuit targeting “forever chemicals.” But U.S. markets are shut for the weekend and the bounce looks muted: shares fell 1.8% on the week, with 1.94 million MMM shares trading on Friday, just 51% of the 65-day average.

Fervo’s $8 Billion Stock Value Tops Ormat — Now Comes the $1 Billion Cost Test

Fervo Energy Company closed Friday at $27.13, giving the geothermal developer a $7.99 billion equity value — about 17% more than Ormat Technologies, an established listed geothermal operator worth $6.80 billion. That premium now rests heavily on whether Fervo’s new 21-day drilling record can translate into lower plant costs and reliable power sales.
Whirlpool Shares Rise 7.6% as Investors Weigh $154M Debt Position

Whirlpool Shares Rise 7.6% as Investors Weigh $154M Debt Position

Whirlpool Corporation gained about $171 million in market cap Friday, with shares up 7.6% to $40.72. That’s just ahead of the $153.75 million in annual coupon payments tied to $2 billion in secured notes issued in June. The bond coupon is the fixed yearly interest rate. The comparison just shows the difference in size — it doesn’t suggest a new cost, since the notes mostly replaced lower-coupon 2026-27 bonds and revolving debt.
