Micron stock rises in premarket as AI-era memory pricing stays in focus — what MU investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 05:59 ET — Premarket Micron Technology (MU.O) shares rose about 3% in premarket trading on Monday, adding to a powerful run that saw the stock jump 10.5% on Friday’s close. Shares were indicated at $325.37 after ending Friday at $315.42. The Wall Street Journal The move matters because Micron’s fortunes swing with memory prices, and investors are betting this cycle has shifted in its favor.

Amazon stock: What to watch as analysts raise targets on Rufus AI and AWS

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 06:02 (EST) — Premarket Amazon.com shares edged higher in premarket trading on Monday as two analyst notes pointed to upside from the company’s AI-powered shopping assistant and cloud growth.

Tesla stock (TSLA) rises in premarket after delivery miss — what investors watch next

New York, January 5, 2026, 06:00 EST — Premarket Tesla shares rose about 1.7% in premarket trading on Monday to $445.45, after ending Friday down 2.6% at $438.07.  StockAnalysis The early gains put Tesla back in focus after last week’s delivery update revived concerns about near-term demand, even as the stock remains priced for fast growth in newer bets such as autonomy and robotics. A Tesla-compiled survey of 20 sell-side analysts had forecast fourth-quarter deliveries of 422,850 vehicles and projected 2026 deliveries of about 1.75 million, underscoring how much of the 2026 narrative rests on a rebound in volumes.  Tesla

The stock ended Friday up 10.51% at $315.42.  Public The early move matters because Micron has become a high-volume proxy for a bet that memory-chip prices will keep rising in 2026, lifting earnings across the sector. Investors are watching demand for DRAM — the mainstream memory used in servers, PCs and phones — and high-bandwidth memory (HBM), a premium stacked form of DRAM used alongside AI processors. Micron’s closest rivals

Microsoft stock slips premarket as MSFT heads into jobs data and Jan. 28 earnings

New York, January 5, 2026, 05:54 EST — Premarket Microsoft (MSFT) shares fell about 2.2% in premarket trading on Monday to $472.94, while the Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ) — a widely used proxy for the Nasdaq 100 — slipped 0.2%.

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 05:53 ET — Premarket Surf Air Mobility Inc shares rose about 10% to $2.63 in premarket trading on Monday, adding to the prior session’s outsized jump.

Sandisk (SNDK) stock flat in premarket after 16% surge; new director and Jan. 29 earnings in focus

NEW YORK, January 5, 2026, 05:59 ET — Premarket Sandisk Corp shares were little changed in premarket trading on Monday after a sharp rise in the first session of 2026. The stock last traded at $275.24. The move keeps Sandisk on traders’ screens as money rotates through storage and memory names tied to data-center demand. Sandisk sells NAND flash, a type of memory chip used in solid-state drives, and the group can swing sharply on shifts in pricing and capital spending. That sensitivity matters more now because Sandisk’s next earnings update is approaching, and investors are looking for proof that

Sensex slips from record high as IT selloff and Trump tariff talk drag Nifty

Markets – New Delhi, January 5, 2026, 05:25 ET Indian shares ended lower on Monday after paring early gains that pushed the Nifty 50 to a record high, as IT stocks slid and worries over possible additional U.S. tariffs dented sentiment.
