Microchip Technology stock jumps 10% after MCHP boosts Q3 sales outlook

New York, January 6, 2026, 12:40 EST — Regular session Microchip Technology Incorporated shares rose 10.2% to $73.93 in midday trading on Tuesday after the chipmaker lifted its fiscal third-quarter net sales outlook in a late-Monday update. The company now expects net sales of about $1.185 billion for the quarter ended Dec. 31, 2025, above its earlier $1.109 billion to $1.149 billion forecast, and said it would not hold a conference call on the update, with full results due Feb. 5. CEO Steve Sanghi said “our bookings activity was very strong in the December quarter,” referring to new orders, and the company pointed to a stronger March-quarter opening backlog, or unfilled orders, as it ramps factories to cut under-utilization charges, a cost of running plants below capacity.

Uber stock jumps after CES robotaxi debut with Lucid, Nuro as AV race heats up

New York, Jan 6, 2026, 12:56 EST — Regular session Uber Technologies’ shares rose about 5% to $84.93 in midday trading on Tuesday after it and partners Lucid Group and Nuro unveiled a production-intent robotaxi at the CES tech show in Las Vegas. The vehicle uses Nuro’s Level 4 system — meaning it can drive itself in limited areas without a human — and runs on Nvidia’s DRIVE AGX Thor computer, the companies said. Uber, which sold its self-driving unit to Aurora Innovation in 2020, said testing began in December ahead of a planned launch in the San Francisco Bay Area later this year, as Alphabet’s Waymo and Tesla expand their own robotaxi efforts.

  • GPC Jumps 12.9% as O'Reilly Looks to Buy Auto Unit, Market Eyes Industrial Shift
    July 3, 2026, 5:13 AM EDT. Genuine Parts (GPC) shares soared 12.9% to $132.57 after news hit of O'Reilly Automotive's cash bid topping $10 billion for its auto-parts segment. The reported offer puts a spotlight on GPC's move to tighten its focus on the industrial parts business, where management targets better margins and growth. Even with a big stock surge, analysts left the consensus EPS at $2.10 for next quarter. Revenue is forecast up 3.6% to $6.39 billion from last year. Some say GPC may not hold onto gains unless earnings estimates start to climb. GPC is still rated Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). Over at Driven Brands Holdings (DRVN), shares added 2.6%, with its EPS estimate nudged up over the past month.
