Trump Media Slumps Near 52-Week Low, Focus Turns to TAE Deal as Next DJT Catalyst

Trump Media Slumps Near 52-Week Low, Focus Turns to TAE Deal as Next DJT Catalyst

Trump Media & Technology Group Corp. fell 5.45% to close at $7.80 on Friday, Google Finance showed. After hours, the stock changed hands at $7.89. Shares remained close to their 52-week low of $7.75. Market cap stood around $2.16 billion, with about 4.16 million shares traded, in line with typical volume. DJT’s drop stood out as both the S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite closed higher for the session on June 12. DJT is under more pressure this week as the market weighs the June 10 update with TAE Technologies. Trump Media and TAE told the SEC they're still working to close their planned merger, aiming for a fourth-quarter 2026 finish or earlier. The companies also said talks about spinning off some media assets, including Truth Social, into another public company have ended.

PepsiCo Stock Holds Near $144 as Analysts Split Before Key July Earnings Test

PepsiCo Stock Holds Near $144 as Analysts Split Before Key July Earnings Test

PepsiCo, Inc. stock finished Friday at $144.27, up 0.39%, with intraday trading between $142.38 and $144.71 and volume of about 6.78 million shares. The move came in a firmer tape: the S&P 500 rose 0.5% to 7,431.46, the Dow Jones Industrial Average gained 0.7% to 51,202.26 and the Nasdaq Composite added 0.3% to 25,888.84. The stock’s small gain matters because Wall Street is reassessing PepsiCo just weeks before its next earnings report. Piper Sandler analyst Michael Lavery lowered the firm’s price target, meaning its 12-month estimate of fair value, to $178 from $181 while keeping an Overweight rating, a term that generally means the analyst expects the shares to outperform a benchmark or peer group. The same report noted cost pressures and slower-than-expected distribution momentum in salty snacks, even as Piper Sandler remained positive on PepsiCo’s brands and potential return to steadier growth.

Annaly Capital Stock Holds Near $22 After Dividend Hike as Investors Eye Fed Rate Catalyst

NEW YORK, June 13, 2026, 11:07 a.m. EDT Annaly Capital Management shares ended Friday almost unchanged at $22.00 after the mortgage real estate investment trust raised its quarterly common dividend, a move that puts the stock’s income profile back at the center of the investment case. NLY traded between $21.89 and $22.15, with volume of about 6.1 million shares, while the iShares Mortgage Real Estate ETF rose modestly, suggesting the stock’s immediate reaction was measured rather than euphoric.

Paramount Skydance shares up after DOJ OK on Warner Bros. merger, PSKY hurdles ahead

Paramount Skydance shares up after DOJ OK on Warner Bros. merger, PSKY hurdles ahead

Paramount Skydance Corporation shares are in play again after the U.S. Justice Department approved its planned takeover of Warner Bros. Discovery. The antitrust review said the deal probably won’t hurt competition or consumers. That’s key for PSKY, which is trading more like a merger bet these days. Every regulatory green light cuts merger risk, while any new legal snag makes closing the media deal more expensive for investors. The stock didn’t jump. Google Finance showed PSKY finishing Friday at $10.47, off 0.19% for the session, then trading up to $10.76 after hours, up 2.77% from the close. Paramount Skydance’s market cap was about $11.72 billion on the same page. The listed 52-week range: $8.62 to $20.86. Earnings per share came in at negative $0.51. Those numbers explain why some investors look at the stock as both a high-risk media bet and a special event play.

Verizon rises as Dow strength returns VZ to dividend spotlight

New York, June 13, 2026, 11:06 ET — • Verizon shares climbed 2.49% to $48.11 on Friday, pushing the Dow higher as telecom names caught a bid in the wider market rally.• Coming up, Verizon’s second-quarter earnings are set for July 24, with the call starting at 8:30 a.m. ET.• The stock is drawing some interest from income investors, but with high debt, strong rivals and not much room above analyst price targets, risks look balanced.

Accenture Stock Rebounds Before Q3 Earnings as AI Growth Test Looms for ACN

Accenture Stock Rebounds Before Q3 Earnings as AI Growth Test Looms for ACN

Accenture plc shares regained ground Friday, with ACN rising 1.65% to close at $170.28, outperforming the broader market as the S&P 500 added 0.50% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 0.70%. The move mattered because it broke a five-day losing streak, but it did not erase the bigger damage: the stock remains roughly 46% below its 52-week high, leaving investors focused on whether the recent weakness is a buying opportunity or a warning about slower demand for consulting and IT services. The immediate catalyst is clear. Accenture has scheduled its third-quarter fiscal 2026 earnings call for Thursday, June 18, at 8:00 a.m. EDT, with the earnings release due before the call. MarketBeat reported this week that analysts expect Q3 earnings of $3.70 per share on revenue of about $18.77 billion, making revenue growth, bookings and commentary on client spending the key numbers for ACN’s next stock move.

FreeCast Stock Jumps 141% After DIRECTV Expansion, But CAST Risks Remain High

FreeCast Stock Jumps 141% After DIRECTV Expansion, But CAST Risks Remain High

FreeCast, Inc. shares turned into one of the market’s sharpest micro-cap movers on June 12, with CAST closing at $1.55, up 140.68%, on volume above 211 million shares. The stock later pulled back to $1.40 in after-hours trading, a reminder that the move was powerful but still unstable. StockAnalysis data put FreeCast’s market capitalization near $64 million at the close, against trailing-12-month revenue of $565,171, making valuation a central question after the rally. The spark was FreeCast’s announcement that it expanded its DIRECTV relationship, allowing DIRECTV services to be offered through FreeCast’s direct-to-consumer residential initiatives and its broader Platform-as-a-Service, or PaaS, ecosystem. PaaS means FreeCast provides a technology platform that partners can use to launch branded streaming services without building the infrastructure themselves. The company said DIRECTV streaming no longer requires a home-mounted satellite dish and is available through existing FreeCast sales and distribution channels.

Roku Stock Jumps 20% on Sale Talk as Investors Watch Next Catalyst

Roku Stock Jumps 20% on Sale Talk as Investors Watch Next Catalyst

Roku, Inc. shares surged Friday after reports that the streaming-TV platform is exploring strategic options, including a possible sale of the company. The stock closed at $143.66, up about 20%, after trading as high as $148.49, giving Roku a market value of roughly $21.7 billion. The move matters because takeover speculation can reset how investors value a company: buyers may pay a premium for strategic assets, but the premium can evaporate if talks fail. Reuters reported that Roku has discussed a potential combination with at least one U.S. media company, while also exploring other options such as a PIPE, or private investment in public equity, which is a direct investment into a public company by outside investors. Reuters also reported that no final decision has been made and that Roku did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

Oil stocks set for weekend as crude drops on Iran deal talk

Oil stocks set for weekend as crude drops on Iran deal talk

Energy names closed out the week in a tricky spot, with oil sharply lower but the group hanging on. Brent, the global benchmark, dropped 3.37% to $87.33 a barrel by Friday’s settlement. U.S. benchmark WTI fell 3.23% to $84.88, as markets started to consider the odds of a U.S.-Iran deal. Crude’s slump usually weighs on oil producers’ cash flow and share prices, while a higher oil price can help earnings and stocks. Energy shares were steadier than oil prices. XLE finished up 0.77% at $57.55 on Friday. Exxon Mobil added 0.27%, Chevron gained 0.74%, ConocoPhillips was up 1.40%, and Occidental Petroleum advanced 1.90%. For the five days, XLE held close to its June 5 close at $57.67. Investors didn’t completely step back from energy names after the late-week crude drop.

NEW YORK, June 13, 2026, 06:55 EDT. AI chip stocks were stronger after a bump from an AMD upgrade and news that SK Hynix is planning a Nasdaq listing, sending the market back to Nvidia’s supply chain.

The iShares Semiconductor ETF closed up 1.5% at $596.25 Friday. AMD jumped 4.7% to $511.57. Nvidia added 0.2% to $205.19. Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing was up 0.6%. Broadcom slipped 0.9%.

Big Tech Trades Lower With SpaceX IPO and Fed In Focus

Big Tech Trades Lower With SpaceX IPO and Fed In Focus

Big Tech shares closed out a choppy week with uneven moves. The S&P 500 ended up 0.5% on Friday, putting it up 0.6% for the week. The Nasdaq Composite added 0.3% for the day and 0.7% for the week, according to Associated Press data. Inside the megacap group, Tesla jumped 1.8% on Friday, and both Alphabet and Nvidia posted small gains. Amazon, Apple and Meta slipped. Stocks move higher when investors see more profit ahead or lower risks. They fall when those views reverse. Positioning is the main reason the Magnificent Seven lagged. According to Reuters and a JPMorgan note, hedge funds dumped the biggest U.S. tech names and took on more short bets before SpaceX’s IPO. The Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF, which tracks the group, dropped more than 2.4% since June 5. The Nasdaq still ended the week up. Selling pressure from funds weighed on these popular stocks, even without new bad news from the companies.

Quantum Shares Snap Back as IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave Lose Steam

Quantum Shares Snap Back as IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave Lose Steam

Quantum computing names finished the week with volatile trading and recent gains still in focus. IonQ was last at $57.85, off 0.3%. Rigetti Computing gained 1.7% to $20.98. D-Wave Quantum slipped 2.0% to $23.37 and Quantum Computing Inc. was up 0.2% at $9.93. The group had rallied after a spring run-up—The Motley Fool said Friday IonQ, Rigetti and D-Wave were still up at least 50% from the end of March, even after some weakness this week. Stocks in the sector got a lift not from earnings, but from a shift in government policy. On May 21, the U.S. Department of Commerce announced it had signed nine letters of intent for $2.013 billion in planned CHIPS and Science Act incentives for quantum companies. IBM gets $1 billion, GlobalFoundries $375 million, D-Wave is set to receive $100 million, and Rigetti up to $100 million. These incentives target utility-scale, fault-tolerant quantum computers, which use qubits—known for being error-prone, but essential for scalable systems. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick called the investments the start of “a new era of American innovation.” That line landed with investors who have wanted to see more political support for the industry.

SpaceX IPO Rattles Satellite Stocks; Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile Fall

SpaceX IPO Rattles Satellite Stocks; Rocket Lab, AST SpaceMobile Fall

Space and satellite stocks in the U.S. pulled back hard to close out the week, with a selloff following SpaceX’s public trading debut. The IPO had sparked a rally earlier, but traders jumped to take profits after SpaceX started trading. SpaceX’s IPO was priced at $135 a share, selling 555,555,555 shares. Shares traded at $160.95, up 19% from the IPO price, according to latest market data. SpaceX’s public market debut sets a new valuation benchmark for other launch, satellite broadband, and space-infrastructure stocks. Space stocks dropped across the board. Latest U.S. prices had Rocket Lab off 10.8%, AST SpaceMobile sliding 15.5%, Intuitive Machines down 13.1%, Planet Labs off 8.8% and Redwire losing 11.6%. The Procure Space ETF dropped 6.9%. ARK Space & Defense Innovation ETF lost 1.9%. Those declines in sector ETFs—baskets of shares that trade like stocks—point to a sector-wide move and not just a single name.

US Stock Market Today After Hours: S&P 500, Dow Rise as SpaceX Debut and Oil Slide Lift Wall Street

US Stock Market Today After Hours: S&P 500, Dow Rise as SpaceX Debut and Oil Slide Lift Wall Street

U.S. stocks held a firmer tone after Friday’s close, with exchange-traded funds — stock-like baskets that track indexes and can trade after the closing bell — showing the rally largely intact in late post-market activity. The move followed a higher regular session, as the S&P 500, Dow and Nasdaq all advanced after oil prices fell and risk appetite improved. The day’s price action mattered because investors were responding to two market-sensitive forces at once: lower energy prices and renewed enthusiasm for high-growth technology. Reuters reported that hopes for a U.S.-Iran peace deal helped pressure oil prices, easing fears that energy-driven inflation would force interest rates higher. Lower inflation risk can support stock valuations because it reduces the pressure on corporate costs and on the discount rates investors use to value future earnings.

NCR Voyix Rallies 10% After Investors Shift on Turnaround Bets

NCR Voyix Rallies 10% After Investors Shift on Turnaround Bets

NCR Voyix Corporation shares jumped Friday, with the retail-and-restaurant commerce tech company catching a bid after a rocky run. VYX ended at $7.85, up 10.25%. About 3.97 million shares traded, with the price swinging from just below $7 to over $8.40 during the session, market data showed. The gain stood out against quieter moves in the main indexes: SPY added 0.57%, QQQ was up 0.59%, and IWM climbed 0.92%. The rally is key for NCR Voyix’s stock price, since investors still see the name as a turnaround and execution play instead of a straight growth stock. In its latest quarter, NCR Voyix posted $606 million in first-quarter revenue, off a bit from $612 million a year ago. Net loss from continuing operations narrowed to $2 million, compared to a $21 million loss last year. Adjusted EBITDA came in at $78 million, up from $74 million. That adjusted number, which excludes things like interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and some special items, is a key measure investors look at for operating profitability.

Jacksonville, Florida, June 12, 2026, 19:02 EDT Redwire Corporation shares fell on Friday, with investors backing away from smaller space stocks after SpaceX’s market debut drew fresh attention. RDW was last at $15.12, down $1.98 or 11.6%. More than 64 million shares traded so far, with the session range between $14.75 and $18.45. The drop stands out since Redwire had been running higher in a broad speculative move in space stocks. Sector shifts like this can squeeze valuations even if the company’s long-term outlook doesn’t change.
