DocuSign stock slides today as software names wobble — here’s what’s driving DOCU

New York, Jan 2, 2026, 15:43 ET — Regular session DocuSign (DOCU.O) shares fell 4.4% to $65.38 in afternoon trade on Friday, after earlier swinging between $69.00 and $64.25. About 2.2 million shares had changed hands, compared with the stock’s previous close of $68.40. The slide comes as Wall Street’s first session of 2026 turned cautious after last year’s strong run, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq slipping from early gains. “Stocks trade expensive on 18 of 20 measures, and we see elevated risks to the index level in the near term,” Savita Subramanian, Bank of America’s equity and quant
Synopsys stock rises nearly 3% today as Loop Capital lifts target to $600; SNPS outperforms peers

Synopsys stock rises nearly 3% today as Loop Capital lifts target to $600; SNPS outperforms peers

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 15:42 ET — Regular session Synopsys Inc (SNPS) shares rose 2.8% to $482.78 in afternoon trading on Friday, a strong start for the Nasdaq-listed chip-design software maker on the first U.S. session of 2026. The move matters because investors are re-setting positions after last year’s rally in growth stocks, and Synopsys sits close to the front end of the semiconductor spending cycle. Synopsys sells electronic design automation (EDA) software — tools that help engineers design and test chips before they are manufactured — making the stock a key read-through for corporate R&D budgets tied to

MongoDB stock drops about 4% in late trade as software sector slides — what’s next for MDB

New York, January 2, 2026, 15:34 ET — Regular session MongoDB, Inc. shares slid about 4% in afternoon trading on Friday, falling to around $402 and underperforming the broader market as software stocks weakened on the first trading day of 2026. The move matters because MongoDB trades like a classic “risk-on” software stock — the kind that can swing hard when investors reassess valuations and interest-rate expectations. “Stocks trade expensive on 18 of 20 measures,” Bank of America equity and quant strategist Savita Subramanian wrote in a note. Reuters Software was a notable drag: the iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF

Kymera Therapeutics stock slides nearly 7% after CEO share-sale filing — what KYMR investors watch next

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 15:39 ET — Regular session Kymera Therapeutics Inc (KYMR.O) shares fell nearly 7% on Friday afternoon after a regulatory filing disclosed a year-end sale by Chief Executive Nello Mainolfi. Kymera was down 6.9% at $72.42, after earlier touching $72.18. The move matters because Kymera has become a high-sensitivity biotech name, with investor expectations tied closely to clinical progress for its experimental immunology drug KT-621. In that setup, insider selling can test sentiment, even when the transactions are scheduled in advance. Friday’s drop stood out against a steadier tape. The SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) was

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 15:29 ET — Regular session Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR) shares fell 5.2% to $168.43 in afternoon trading on Friday, the first session of 2026. The stock ranged from $166.38 to $182.93, with about 49.3 million shares changing hands. The drop comes after a sharp 2025 run that left the stock sensitive to early-year repositioning. TipRanks said Palantir rose more than 136% in 2025 and noted the shares were hovering near chart levels traders track, including a 50-day moving average around $181.20; TipRanks also showed a “Hold” consensus rating and an average price target of $187.87.

S&P Global stock drops today as yields rise; what investors are watching next for SPGI

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 3:30 PM ET — Regular session Shares of S&P Global Inc. fell about 1.7% to $513.81 in afternoon trading on Friday, after closing at $522.59 in the prior session. The drop came as Treasury yields pushed higher, a headwind for stocks that investors price off long-dated cash flows. The 10-year yield rose about 4.2 basis points — a basis point is 0.01 percentage point — to 4.195%, Reuters reported. CNA U.S. stocks have been choppy into the first trading day of 2026, with strategists pointing to stretched valuations after a strong year. “Stocks trade expensive

DoorDash stock drops as California refund law kicks in — what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 3:33 PM ET — Regular session DoorDash (DASH.O) shares were down 2.3% at $221.17 in afternoon trading on Friday, after swinging between $221.15 and $229.65. The stock’s decline came as a new set of California laws took effect on Jan. 1, including AB 578, which strengthens consumer and worker protections for food delivery platforms. The measure requires refunds when orders are undelivered, incorrect or partially fulfilled and mandates access to a real customer-service representative when automated systems cannot resolve an issue.

Intuitive Surgical stock falls today: what’s driving ISRG and what investors watch next

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 3:30 PM ET — Regular session Intuitive Surgical shares slid 1% to $560.61 in afternoon trading on Friday, lagging a mixed U.S. tape in the market’s first session of 2026. The drop matters because investors are starting the year with fresh sensitivity to valuation—how much they are paying for a dollar of earnings—after a strong 2025 run left many stocks priced for good news. Reuters “Stocks trade expensive on 18 of 20 measures, and we see elevated risks to the index level in the near term,” Savita Subramanian, Bank of America’s equity and quant strategist,
Coca-Cola stock slips today after Georgia filing flags 75 Atlanta HQ layoffs

Coca-Cola stock slips today after Georgia filing flags 75 Atlanta HQ layoffs

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 15:26 ET — Regular session Coca-Cola Co shares fell about 1% on Friday after a Georgia workforce filing said the beverage maker expects to cut about 75 jobs at its Atlanta headquarters as part of a broader reorganization. TCSG The notice matters as Wall Street starts 2026 focused on how large, cash-generative companies defend margins after a strong 2025 for U.S. stocks and heavy investor inflows into equity funds late in the year. Reuters The update also lands as Treasury yields rise, a backdrop that can pressure dividend-paying defensive stocks because their payouts compete with

Dyne Therapeutics (DYN) stock slides today as biotech wobbles — FDA clock back in focus

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 3:19 PM ET — Regular session Dyne Therapeutics shares fell about 6% on Friday, giving back earlier gains in a volatile first session of 2026 for some biotech names. The Nasdaq-listed stock was down 6.1% at $18.36 in afternoon trading, after touching $20.90 at the high and $18.13 at the low. The move matters because it pulls Dyne back toward the $18.44 price of its December share sale, a reference point traders often watch after a dilutive financing. Dyne said that offering raised about $402.5 million in gross proceeds. The broader tape offered little help.

Novanta stock dives nearly 6% today as 2026 starts — why NOVT is lagging peers

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 15:29 ET — Regular session Novanta Inc shares were down 5.9% at $111.99 in afternoon trading on Friday, after opening near $119.89 and sliding to a session low of $110.46. The stock last traded about $7 lower on the day, with about 435,000 shares changing hands. The drop matters because it came on the first trading day of 2026, when portfolio rebalancing can amplify moves in mid-cap industrial technology names. It also stood out against gains in related laser and photonics stocks, leaving Novanta as a laggard even as investors chased strength elsewhere in the

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 15:24 ET — Regular session McDonald’s shares fell 0.7% to $303.38 in late-afternoon trading on Friday, starting 2026 on the back foot as investors trimmed exposure to consumer-facing names. The move matters now because trading volumes are returning after the holiday lull, and the market’s attention is shifting back to interest rates and consumer demand. Consumer discretionary stocks were among the day’s laggards in early action, a pressure point for restaurant operators that rely on steady traffic. Reuters Next week brings the first major slate of U.S. economic reports of the year, including the monthly

Singapore Airlines stock dips as supply-chain “new norm” raises cost focus before SGX reopens

7 February 2026
Singapore, Feb 7, 2026, 15:06 (SGT) — Market closed Singapore Airlines Ltd shares slipped on Friday, ending at S$6.70, as investors weighed fresh warnings that aircraft parts shortages are becoming a longer-running drag on airline costs.
