Intel stock price slides nearly 14% after outlook miss; what traders watch next

New York, January 23, 2026, 09:42 (EST) — Regular session Intel Corp (INTC) saw its shares tumble 13.7% to $46.86 in early Friday trade, wiping out gains from a rally that had lifted the stock to a multi-year peak. The chipmaker had closed Thursday at $54.32. (MarketScreener) The drop halts a January surge that pushed Intel up about 47%, on top of last year’s 84% gain, as investors backed CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s turnaround strategy. They’ve also been watching for signs that Intel’s contract chipmaking efforts—foundry services for external clients—can attract new business. Tan mentioned two customers are testing “14A,” the

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 09:34 EST — Regular session Sandisk Corp (SNDK) shares climbed 0.5% to $503.44 by 9:34 a.m. EST Friday, hovering near yesterday’s highs. S3 Partners noted that “short sellers have moved in lockstep over the last few months, utilizing a reversal strategy by shorting aggressively into the rally.” Bloomberg reported short interest jumped to 7.5% of the float, up from around 4% since early November, piling on roughly $3 billion in unrealized losses on those short positions.

Natural gas pulls back after a brutal rally — here’s what traders watch next

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 06:33 EST — Premarket U.S. natural gas futures slipped in early Friday trade after rallying sharply over the past three days. The February contract fell 6.1% to $4.737 per million British thermal units (mmBtu) as of 2:41 a.m. EST, down from Thursday’s close at $5.045. (MarketWatch) The pullback still leaves gas sharply higher for the week, with timing proving crucial. Traders juggle two factors: a rapidly intensifying cold snap that could disrupt both demand and supply, and uncertainty over how long the tight market will persist after the initial headlines fade. The U.S. power grid

New York, January 23, 2026, 05:27 EST — Premarket Shares of CSG Systems International enter Friday’s U.S. session close to a 52-week peak, lingering just below the cash offer price from Japan’s NEC in its upcoming acquisition.

New York, Jan 23, 2026, 04:59 (EST) — Premarket Abbott Laboratories shares held steady near $109 in early trading Friday, following a sharp 10% drop to $108.61 at Thursday’s close—a hefty post-earnings selloff. The stock swung between $105.78 and $114.00 during the session. The company is set to report next on April 22. (Investing.com) The decline is significant since investors have relied on Abbott’s devices and branded nutrition lines to drive growth as COVID-19 testing winds down.

SGX stock price rises as Singapore Exchange proposes smaller board lots; Feb 13 deadline looms

Singapore, Jan 23, 2026, 15:29 SGT — Regular session Shares of Singapore Exchange Ltd climbed 1.1% to S$17.49 by 3:10 p.m. on Friday, with the Straits Times Index also up 1.1%. The stock has surged roughly 46% over the last year and is hovering near its 52-week peak. (StockAnalysis) This matters for SGX since it earns fees whenever investors trade. If shifts in market structure draw more retail money toward higher-priced stocks, cash-equities turnover and fee revenue could rise, regardless of stagnant headline prices. A board lot is just the smallest unit you can trade. But when share prices rise,
