Spyre Therapeutics stock slides 6.6% after New Year session; $30 level and 2026 trial data in focus

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 20:15 ET — Market closed Spyre Therapeutics, Inc. shares fell 6.6% on Friday to $30.58, finishing the first U.S. trading day of 2026 near the lower end of the session’s $30.11-$33.31 range. The stock remains below its 52-week high of $34.49 after trading about 889,000 shares, while biotech benchmarks were little changed.

Klaviyo stock drops nearly 10% as 2026 opens — what KVYO investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 19:55 ET — Market closed Shares of Klaviyo (KVYO) closed down 9.7% on Friday at $29.32, marking a sharp slide on the first trading day of 2026. The move matters now because investors began the new year with a fresh rate backdrop: U.S. Treasury yields climbed, and growth stocks lagged as traders recalibrated expectations for Federal Reserve policy and upcoming data. Reuters Klaviyo’s drop also puts attention back on what the company says about 2026 demand and margins when it next reports results, with the earnings date currently estimated for Feb. 18.

Reuters “Value is outperforming growth and AI infrastructure is up,” said Jed Ellerbroek, a portfolio manager at Argent Capital, in comments cited by Reuters.

Crypto-linked stocks are shares of companies whose business models are materially tied to cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and ether advanced on the first U.S. trading day of 2026, supporting sentiment in the sector even as broader equity markets finished mixed.

NexGen Energy stock jumps 11% as uranium miners rally — here’s what investors watch next

TORONTO, Jan 3, 2026, 7:31 PM ET — Market closed U.S.-listed shares of NexGen Energy Ltd jumped 11.4% on Friday and closed at $10.25, lifting the uranium developer on the first trading day of 2026.

Hut 8 stock jumps 12% as bitcoin rallies and Coinbase credit line returns to focus

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 19:24 ET — Market closed Hut 8 Corp. shares surged in the last U.S. stock session, closing up about 11.6% at $51.27. The move capped a sharp rebound for the crypto infrastructure name after the New Year holiday. The rally mattered because traders continue to treat Hut 8 as a high-beta proxy for bitcoin and the broader “crypto equities” trade — stocks that often amplify moves in digital assets. Bitcoin was last around $91,271, up about 1.5%. It also kept attention on Hut 8’s financing and its shift toward data centers for artificial intelligence workloads,

NEW YORK, January 3, 2026, 19:17 ET — Market closed Riot Platforms shares rose $1.52, or nearly 12%, in the most recent U.S. session, ending Friday at $14.16.

Riot Platforms The developments matter now because miners are trying to convince investors they can turn power-heavy campuses into steadier cash generators by leasing space and electricity to data-center customers. Riot’s latest filing explicitly ties management pay to that strategy, a signal investors often read as a marker of corporate

New York, Jan 3, 2026, 19:20 ET — Market closed Uranium Energy Corp. shares jumped 12.2% on Friday to close at $13.11, kicking off 2026 with a sharp gain as uranium miners rallied.

New York, Jan 3, 2026, 19:20 ET — Market closed Centrus Energy Corp shares jumped 12.2% in the first U.S. trading session of 2026 on Friday, riding a broad rebound in uranium-linked stocks. The stock was last at $272.50 after ranging from $245.75 to $272.68, with about 1.07 million shares traded, according to market data.
