Intel stock jumps 6% in premarket as CES “Panther Lake” chips put Jan. 22 earnings in focus

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 06:32 EST — Premarket Intel shares (INTC.O) jumped about 6.4% in premarket trading on Thursday to $42.63, extending a CES-fuelled rally after the company laid out new laptop processors built on its 18A manufacturing process. Intel late Wednesday set Jan. 22 for quarterly results, after the stock closed at about $40.06. The move keeps attention on whether Intel can turn 18A into a high-volume platform for PCs and, eventually, a base for its foundry push — contract chipmaking for other companies. Traders will be looking for follow-through into the cash session after the stock’s sharp

Micron (MU) stock slips premarket as New York megafab milestone meets softer futures

New York, Jan 8, 2026, 06:25 ET — Premarket Micron Technology (MU) shares fell 1.1% in premarket trading on Thursday to $339.55. The memory-chip maker said it will break ground on its $100 billion “megafab” project in Onondaga County, New York on Jan. 16, after clearing environmental reviews and permits. Micron Technology The date puts a concrete marker on a project investors see as central to Micron’s long-term supply plan, just as AI servers soak up DRAM — dynamic random access memory used in servers, PCs and phones — and strain capacity.

Australia stock market today: ASX 200 closes higher as tech rebounds; BlueScope pushes back on $13.2b bid

Sydney, Jan 8, 2026, 21:54 AEDT — Market closed. Australian shares ended higher on Thursday, lifted by a second straight rise in tech and health stocks while miners eased. The S&P/ASX 200 closed up 0.29% at 8,720.8, with information technology up 1.73% and healthcare up 1.64%, even as materials fell 1.23%. Market Index The rotation matters right now because investors are trying to read the rate path off a handful of fresh inflation signals, and the RBA has pushed back on any victory laps.

Applied Digital stock: APLD jumps after-hours on revenue beat, $5B AI lease and fresh funding

New York, January 8, 2026, 04:51 EST — Premarket Applied Digital shares rose about 7% in after-hours trading on Wednesday after the data-center operator posted quarterly revenue above Wall Street estimates on demand for facilities used to run artificial-intelligence workloads. The stock last closed down about 2% at $29.56. Reuters The timing matters. Big cloud firms are chasing power and floor space as they race to train and deploy larger AI models, and Applied Digital has pitched North Dakota as a place to lock in capacity before it gets scarcer.

PepsiCo stock slides as Nvidia-Siemens “digital twin” push puts costs back in focus

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 19:40 EST — After-hours PepsiCo, Inc. (PEP.O) shares fell 1.4% to $137.01 on Wednesday, extending a four-session slide. The snacks-and-drinks maker this week unveiled a multi-year digital twin and AI partnership with Siemens and Nvidia, aimed at retooling factories and warehouses faster. The stock traded between $136.96 and $139.83, with about 8.4 million shares changing hands. StockAnalysis The timing matters because PepsiCo is already in cost-and-growth mode.

Amphenol stock slides after Nvidia’s Rubin “cable-free” reveal; focus turns to Jan. 28 earnings

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 19:53 EST — After-hours Amphenol Corp (APH.N) shares ended down 1.8% at $138.91 on Wednesday, after a sharp bout of volatility earlier in the week tied to investor nerves about the next generation of AI hardware. The move matters because Amphenol has become a crowded way to play data-center buildouts — and those bets can turn fast when big customers change designs. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang this week described linking Rubin chips into “pods” of more than 1,000, saying they could lift the efficiency of generating “tokens” — the basic unit of AI output —

BitMine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) stock slides after MSCI pauses crypto-treasury index shake-up

NEW YORK, January 7, 2026, 19:32 EST — After-hours BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc shares were last down 6% at $30.36 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after a choppy session that saw the stock swing between $30.24 and $32.81. The stock has been moving with a sector-wide debate over whether index providers should treat “digital asset treasury companies” — listed firms that park a large share of their balance sheet in tokens like bitcoin and ether — as operating companies or more like investment vehicles.

New York, Jan 7, 2026, 18:49 EST — After-hours American Airlines Group Inc shares rose about 2% to $15.99 on Wednesday, after trading between $15.65 and $16.50. The gains come a day after the carrier said it will launch free in-flight Wi‑Fi for AAdvantage loyalty members in a sponsorship deal with AT&T.

NEW YORK, Jan 7, 2026, 18:50 EST — After-hours Seagate Technology Holdings plc (STX) shares fell about 6.7% to $308.26 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, trimming a sharp run that had pushed the data-storage maker to fresh highs earlier in the week.
