Apple stock drops premarket as AAPL faces jobs data, App Store appeal, earnings clock

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 09:25 EST — Premarket Apple Inc shares were down $5.04, or 1.9%, at $262.36 in premarket trading on Wednesday, after closing at $267.40 in the prior session. The slip comes with investors fixated on labor data and what it means for interest rates, after a tech-led rally in the previous session. “It’s not giving you a great look into what’s happening,” Kim Forrest, chief investment officer at Bokeh Capital Partners, said of the ADP report.

Nvidia stock slips as CEO points to China H200 orders; Rubin roadmap in focus

New York, January 7, 2026, 09:44 EST — Regular session Nvidia (NVDA.O) shares slipped 0.5% to $187.24 in early trading on Wednesday after Chief Executive Jensen Huang said any Chinese approval to import the company’s H200 chips would show up in purchase orders, not a formal announcement. Huang said demand from Chinese customers was “quite high,” while CFO Colette Kress said export license applications were moving but Nvidia still had no timeline for approvals.

Tesla stock slides as Nvidia’s Alpamayo open-source push unsettles robotaxi hopes

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 09:36 EST — Regular session Tesla stock fell 4.1% to $432.96 in early trading on Wednesday after opening lower, as traders digested a new wave of autonomous-driving announcements around the CES tech show. The drop matters because Tesla’s bull case has leaned heavily on Full Self-Driving — a driver-assistance system that still requires supervision — and on a small robotaxi service in Austin, Texas, even as the industry crowds CES with autonomy pitches. “This year you will see more and more focus on AI and autonomous,” said C.J. Finn, PwC’s U.S. automotive industry leader, as

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 09:17 EST — Premarket Intel Corp shares were little changed in U.S. premarket trading on Wednesday, a day after they rose 1.7% to close at $40.04. Yahoo Finance The pause comes as investors sort through Intel’s CES message: the company says its next laptop chips are finally built on its new “18A” manufacturing process, a key step in its bid to claw back share in PCs and build credibility as a contract chipmaker. That matters now because 18A is not just another node on a road map. It is the proof point for whether Intel

NEW YORK, January 7, 2026, 09:03 EST — Premarket Grab Holdings Limited shares were up about 1% in premarket trade on Wednesday, extending the prior session’s rally as investors digested the company’s push into delivery automation.

Reuters Why it matters now: delivery platforms have little room for error on costs, and the final leg to a customer’s door is often the priciest part of the

New York, January 7, 2026, 09:11 EST — Premarket Navitas Semiconductor shares jumped about 13% to $10.19 in premarket trading on Wednesday, after the company said it will appear at Needham & Company’s Growth Conference next week.

Ford stock rises before the bell as 2025 U.S. sales show hybrid strength

New York, January 7, 2026, 08:44 (ET) — Premarket Ford Motor shares were up about 2.3% at $13.80 in premarket trading on Wednesday. The move follows Ford’s latest U.S. sales update, which leaned heavily on hybrids and lower-priced trucks at a time when buyers have grown more price sensitive.

Plug Power stock edges higher premarket after Walmart scraps warrant and dilution overhang

NEW YORK, January 7, 2026, 08:35 EST — Premarket Plug Power (PLUG) shares rose about 1% in premarket trade on Wednesday after the hydrogen fuel-cell and electrolyzer maker said it struck a new agreement with Walmart that scraps Walmart’s long-running stock warrant. The shares were up 1.1% at $2.39. SEC The warrant has sat over the stock for years because it represented possible dilution — when a warrant is exercised, it creates new shares and can shrink existing holders’ stakes. Pulling that overhang matters for Plug at a moment when investors are laser-focused on share count, cash needs and anything
