Bloom Energy surges into Russell as $25B AI contract faces up $77B market cap

Bloom Energy Corporation goes into the week as a large-cap growth name, shifting from its old small-cap fuel-cell label. A short trading week in the U.S. showed just how much trading in BE now tracks index moves and AI-linked power order deals. U.S. stock markets were closed Friday in honor of Independence Day. The NYSE 2026 holiday schedule lists July 3 as a market holiday, since July 4 lands on a Saturday this year. Trading will open again on Monday, July 6.

Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS) trades flat, EMEA M&A head sets July earnings mark

Goldman Sachs heads into next week still trading around $1,000 after new deal figures put the firm on top in first-half EMEA league tables. U.S. markets on the NYSE were shut Friday for Independence Day observed, so Thursday marked the last full regular session. Goldman finished Thursday's session at $1,021.00, up $1.39, or 0.14%. Volume came in at 1.54 million shares, running 28.5% under its 65-day average.

AT&T down 9% for the week; dividend yield, SpaceX issues ahead of Q2

AT&T Inc. fell 9.4% to $20.58 for the holiday week, while the S&P 500 rose 1.8%. The drop wasn’t marketwide—investors sold AT&T on U.S. telecom risk. Shares in U.S. telecoms fell this week as Space Exploration Technologies Corp. and its Starlink mobile ambitions shook the sector. AT&T and Verizon Communications Inc. came under pressure after MarketWatch said SpaceX’s move into mobile weighed on the group, with analysts now saying the threat could drag through 2027.

Oklo (NYSE:OKLO) heads into the week after DOE approval as $1.65 billion short position looms

Oklo Inc. heads into the next U.S. session with a bit of a standoff. The company landed a true regulatory win, but the stock failed to jump, and shorts are still hanging on to a big reported position. The NYSE didn’t open Friday, July 3, for Independence Day, and Saturday wasn’t a trading session. Thursday’s close was the last regular price. Google Finance listed Oklo at $52.36, down 0.17%, in a $50.69 to $56.34 band. Volume hit 9.68 million shares. Market cap stood at $9.11 billion.

Oracle stock’s $638 billion backlog fails to stop worst selloff in years

Oracle stock’s $638 billion backlog fails to stop worst selloff in years

Oracle Corporation enters the long U.S. holiday weekend with an odd split in its numbers: contracted demand has grown larger than the company’s market value, while the stock has kept falling. U.S. equity markets were closed Friday, July 3, for Independence Day observed, with normal NYSE and Nasdaq hours listed as 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET on regular trading days. Oracle’s last regular-session print was Thursday’s $140.27 close, down 1.56%, after touching an intraday low of $138.83. Volume was 44.27 million shares, about 56% above Google Finance’s listed average volume of 28.37 million.
ExxonMobil Holdings (NYSE:XOM) Texas-parent shares begin trading ahead of next profit report

ExxonMobil Holdings (NYSE:XOM) Texas-parent shares begin trading ahead of next profit report

ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation started trading as the new public parent of the Exxon oil group, ending Thursday up 0.59% at $137.09 after a July 1 redomiciliation that moved the parent to Texas, while keeping the NYSE “XOM” ticker. The SEC filing showed each old ExxonMobil share converted into one share of ExxonMobil Holdings, with the new parent now taking ExxonMobil’s spot as the listed company on the New York Stock Exchange. NYSE-listed shares were closed Friday as U.S. markets were shut for Independence Day on July 3. That meant Thursday’s close was the last trading mark ahead of the weekend, so the new parent company only got a four-day debut, not a full week.

Coca-Cola closes at record as KO gets bigger role in staples ETF ahead of July earnings

The Coca-Cola Company closed the holiday week at $84.14, which Macrotrends shows as its highest close ever. The NYSE was closed Friday, July 3, for Independence Day since July 4 was a Saturday. U.S. stocks reopen Monday. KO’s move Thursday wasn’t just another defensive trade. The stock’s gain boosted returns for passive staples investors more than PepsiCo Inc., since Coca-Cola has more influence in the Consumer Staples Select Sector Index tracked by XLP. State Street showed Coca-Cola had a 6.96% index weight as of July 2, with PepsiCo at 4.52%.

U.S. retailers open on July 4 caught a bump in holiday demand, but it didn’t last long. Costco stuck to its usual policy and closed on Independence Day. Chick-fil-A stayed dark for Sunday, as always.

AAA said 72.2 million people were set to travel at least 50 miles, including 61.4 million by car. “Record volumes this year,” AAA Travel Vice President Stacey Barber said.
Kroger (NYSE:KR) Giant Eagle deal set at 0.18 sales multiple

Kroger (NYSE:KR) Giant Eagle deal set at 0.18 sales multiple

Kroger Co is picking up Giant Eagle for what looks like a cheap price compared to the revenue involved. The bigger question for investors is if the chain can use that low multiple to boost margins in two grocery markets where Walmart Inc is already a strong rival. Kroger said it will buy Giant Eagle for $1.25 billion in cash and take on about $400 million in liabilities. Giant Eagle runs 197 supermarkets and 11 standalone pharmacies, pulling in around $9 billion in annual sales, with locations in northern Ohio, western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Maryland and Indiana. “The strategic fit is clear,” Kroger CEO Greg Foran said, calling it “a well-run” chain. Giant Eagle CEO Bill Artman said the deal is expected to deliver “better everyday value.”

SpaceX stock feels index pressure with valuation estimates spread from $63 to $310

Space Exploration Technologies Corp. is showing how price can disconnect from sales as index flows and options activity hit the name harder than anything models are tracking. The shares last traded at $162.00, still up from the $135 IPO level, but well off the $225.64 high just after its June debut. Nasdaq Inc. said SpaceX raised $85.7 billion including the underwriters’ overallotment, putting its market value at $2.1 trillion on day one. The shares opened at $150 and closed at $160.95, up 19.2% from the IPO price, according to Nasdaq.

Dow hits record but chips slide in quiet trade ahead of July 4 break

U.S. stock screens showed nothing new on the cash tape Friday night. Both the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq marked July 3, 2026, as closed for the observance of Independence Day. Nasdaq's standard after-hours trading lasts from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. ET on normal days. Thursday saw a split close, and Friday’s fund-flow numbers showed investors buying into tech funds on the pullback. But chip stocks dropped again before the long weekend. Now Monday’s open is a test for whether buyers stick with tech as AI valuations get a tougher look.

Mobileye (NASDAQ:MBLY) pares gains as buyback overhang weighs after 22% jump

Mobileye is set to reopen Monday after racking up strong gains last week, but holders may now be trying to figure out whether the move was driven by real buying or just changes in float math.
