Exxon Mobil stock faces Monday test as Trump pitches Venezuela oil rebuild for U.S. giants

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 03:46 ET — Market closed Exxon Mobil shares are in focus ahead of Monday’s session after President Donald Trump said U.S. oil companies would spend “billions of dollars” to restore Venezuela’s “badly broken” oil infrastructure, hours after Nicolás Maduro was captured and removed by U.S. forces.

Tokyo stocks today: Nikkei starts 2026 higher as TEPCO, chip and defense names lead

Japan’s Nikkei 225, a price-weighted index of blue-chip shares, jumped about 3% on Monday in Tokyo’s first session of 2026 as investors chased chip and defense stocks and looked past U.S. action in Venezuela. “The market turned risk-on as if uncertainties and threats had been removed,” said Kazuaki Shimada, head of research at IwaiCosmo Securities.

  • Netflix Gains 5.5% as Investors Look Toward Earnings, Sports Streaming Test
    July 2, 2026, 3:56 PM EDT. Netflix jumped 5.5% on July 2, beating out other tech names as traders waited for the company's July 16 Q2 earnings and its live MLB Home Run Derby stream on July 13. Netflix last traded at $78.24, but the stock is still under both its 50-day and 200-day moving averages, making this pop look like a short-term move. The company has its eye on $3 billion in ad revenue this year, and the upcoming sports stream is a big focus for Netflix's growth case. For Q2, Netflix is calling for $12.574 billion in revenue, $4.105 billion in operating income, and 78 cents EPS. Nasdaq will be shut July 3 for the holiday.
