Micron stock just set another record — Bernstein’s $330 target is keeping the AI-memory trade hot

Micron stock just set another record — Bernstein’s $330 target is keeping the AI-memory trade hot

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 10:03 (EST) Micron Technology shares set a fresh record in early trading on Monday, touching $328.44 before reversing and turning lower. The stock was down about 0.7% at $313.12 in late morning trade. The swing shows how quickly sentiment is shifting around memory chips — the DRAM that acts as a computer’s working memory and NAND, the flash storage used in everything from servers to smartphones. Investors are trying to pin down a simple question with an annoyingly non-simple answer: is this another classic memory upcycle that fades, or a tighter, AI-driven market where prices

MARA stock jumps premarket after 288-BTC Wintermute transfer puts Bitcoin miners back in play

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 07:39 ET — Premarket Shares of MARA Holdings Inc (MARA) were up 5.1% at $10.42 in premarket trading on Monday, after a report that the bitcoin miner moved coins to crypto market maker Wintermute. (Google Finance) The move matters because MARA’s stock often acts like a leveraged bet on bitcoin, with investors quick to react to signals about liquidity and coin sales. In plain terms, miners can swing more than the token because their revenue and balance sheets are tightly tied to the bitcoin price. Bitcoin was up about 1.9% at roughly $92,852, setting the

Ondas Holdings (ONDS) stock ticks higher premarket as name-change plan and January catalysts take center stage

New York, Jan 5, 2026, 06:46 ET — Premarket Ondas Holdings Inc shares rose 1.8% in premarket trading on Monday to $11.22, after climbing 12.9% on Friday to close at $11.02. StockAnalysis The move matters because the small-cap stock has become a high-beta proxy for investor appetite around defense, security and autonomous systems, where contract headlines and capital-structure moves can quickly swing sentiment. This week brings two near-term dates investors are keying on: a scheduled share issuance that could lift trading supply, and a mid-January debt maturity for a subsidiary after the company negotiated more time.

Marathon Petroleum stock jumps nearly 6% premarket as Venezuela oil bets lift U.S. refiners

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 05:42 ET — Premarket Marathon Petroleum Corporation shares jumped 5.75% to $174.63 before the opening bell on Monday, extending energy-sector momentum sparked by Washington’s latest moves in Venezuela. Public The rally comes as investors bet the U.S. crackdown on Venezuela’s leadership could loosen restrictions around Venezuelan crude and shift more barrels toward American buyers. That matters for refiners because crude type and location can move costs — and margins — quickly when supplies are tight or discounted. Reuters Venezuelan crude is typically “heavy sour” — oil with higher sulfur content — and U.S. Gulf Coast

Lockheed Martin stock near $500 premarket as Venezuela shock and space-deal chatter refocus defense trade

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 05:43 ET — Premarket Lockheed Martin (LMT.N) shares were little changed at $497.07 in premarket trading on Monday, holding near last session’s close after the stock rose about 2.8% on Friday. Defense names drew fresh attention after U.S. President Donald Trump said the United States captured Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro after strikes over the weekend, a flashpoint investors said could reshape how markets price geopolitical risk. “We’re being reminded that geopolitical risks are much larger than some number cast on imports,” said Vishnu Varathan, head of macro research for Asia ex-Japan at Mizuho Securities in

Rheinmetall stock jumps 7% on Bundeswehr ammo order as Venezuela headlines lift defence shares

FRANKFURT, Jan 5, 2026, 05:36 ET — Premarket Rheinmetall AG shares (RHMG.DE) were up about 7% in early Frankfurt trading on Monday, with the stock last indicated around 1,712 euros. That followed a Friday close near 1,602 euros. MarketScreener The move tracked a sharp bid for European defence names after U.S. military action in Venezuela over the weekend, which pushed the sector index to its highest since late October. Jefferies analysts said the Venezuela strike could shift Washington’s focus to other geopolitical flashpoints and keep pressure on governments to raise defence budgets faster. Reuters Rheinmetall also flagged fresh domestic demand.

Strive Asset Management (ASST) stock jumps premarket as Bitcoin firms and Semler vote looms

NEW YORK, January 5, 2026, 05:15 ET — Premarket Shares of Strive Inc (ASST.OQ) — whose main operating subsidiary is Strive Asset Management, LLC — were up about 10% in early premarket trading on Monday, after ending Friday at $0.8646.

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 04:55 ET — Premarket ConocoPhillips shares were up 6.5% at $102.99 in premarket trading, according to Public.com data. Premarket trading takes place before the regular U.S. session opens at 9:30 a.m. ET, when liquidity is typically thinner and bid-ask spreads can widen. Public The move follows weekend developments in Venezuela that have put U.S. oil companies’ long-running expropriation claims back on the radar. U.S. officials have told oil executives that a return to Venezuela would likely require significant upfront investment before firms can expect to recover money tied to past nationalizations, two people familiar with

NEW YORK, Jan 5, 2026, 04:26 ET — Premarket Chevron shares rose 2.3% to $155.90 in premarket trading on Monday, as investors tracked fast-moving headlines out of Venezuela and what they could mean for the U.S. oil major’s long-standing presence there.

BP stock dips in London as oil slides on Venezuela upheaval; what to watch next
