New York, July 10, 2026, 10:04 (EDT) Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) dropped 2.5% to $109.68 at the start of Friday’s session, lagging behind the iShares Semiconductor ETF (NASDAQ:SOXX), which slipped 0.6%. Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) added 1.3% while Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA) was up 1.7%. Intel was alone in the red as chip stocks traded mixed. The gap matters as Intel heads into its next earnings. The company has to show that its planned manufacturing rebound will line up with sales to outside clients. More of the bull case now comes down to two things: getting stronger in server chips and building up its

New York, July 10, 2026, 09:09 EDT Schwab U.S. Dividend Equity ETF (NYSEARCA:SCHD) landed on three separate new lists released from July 8 to Friday, the only fund to do so after a strong first half that topped the broad U.S. market. The lists may signal agreement on income, but dig deeper and it looks more like a sector shift out of mega-cap tech. (Morningstar, Inc.) U.S. cash markets were still closed. S&P 500 futures held flat, Nasdaq futures slipped 0.3%. Justin Onuekwusi, chief investment officer at St. James’s Place (LON:STJ), said the focus on chip stocks and AI had led

London, July 10, 2026, 13:31 (BST) Lloyds Banking Group (LON:LLOY) rose 0.76% to 112.55 pence by 13:20 BST on Friday, with the stock trading almost exactly at the average price paid during the bank’s latest three-day repurchase burst. The gain outpaced two large UK banking peers.

New York, July 10, 2026, 07:38 EDT Keel Infrastructure Corp. (NASDAQ:KEEL) rose 1.7% to $4.92 in premarket trading on Friday, after gaining 6.1% to $4.84 in the previous session. The shares have recovered 9.0% over two days, though they remain about 34% below the intraday peak of $7.37 reached on June 22. Nasdaq’s regular session had not yet opened. (Google) The pressing question is not whether Keel controls enough potential power. It is how much of that power investors should count before the company signs long-term data-center leases. Based on Thursday’s roughly $2.93 billion market value, a simple equity-value-per-megawatt calculation —

New York, July 10, 2026, 07:39 EDT Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) stock traded up nearly 2% in premarket action Friday. That builds on Thursday’s 2.65% jump to $144.22, which came even after S&P Global Ratings pushed the company’s credit rating down to BBB-, just above junk. Investors kept buying the shares, even as bond investors asked for more yield. (MarketWatch) It’s important because Oracle’s AI infrastructure push is leaning more on outside funding. At Thursday’s close, a $20 billion at-the-market share sale would mean about 138.7 million new shares, sold into the open market in steps. That would add 4.8% to the June

HELSINKI, July 10, 2026, 14:43 (EEST) Nokia (HEL:NOKIA) traded down 0.5% at €11.14 as of 14:33 EEST Friday, giving up some ground while the OMX Helsinki 25 index moved up 0.5%. The stock had jumped 9.6% in the last session but is still up about 101% so far this year. (Google) Nokia handed out 43.55 million treasury shares to staff in its equity incentive plans on Thursday. The block, at Friday’s price, was valued at about €485 million. Treasury shares are company-held and not available for trading, so by giving these existing shares, Nokia kept the total share count steady. (Nokia

New York, July 11, 2026, 18:26 (EDT) Axon Enterprise, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXON) dropped roughly $6.0 billion in market cap from the end of trade Tuesday to Friday, with shares giving up 11.7% over three sessions. The stock closed Friday at $565.80, down from $640.46 on Tuesday. The market cap drop is based on the company’s latest share count of 80.6 million. (StockAnalysis) Axon’s valuation is still high after the selloff. Shares trade at 73.6 times the 2026 adjusted earnings estimate of $7.69 per share. That P/E compares to Motorola Solutions Inc. (NYSE:MSI), which is at about 25 times the midpoint of its

NEW YORK, July 11, 2026, 18:05 (EDT) Constellation Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:CEG) closed Friday at $251.38, up 5.1% on the week. Shares traded in line with peers Vistra Corp. (NYSE:VST), which added 5.2%, and Talen Energy Corporation (NASDAQ:TLN), up 5.8%. The moves suggest traders bought the sector as a whole instead of making a big shift just on Constellation. (StockAnalysis) The distinction is key before Tuesday’s PJM capacity-auction numbers. Constellation is still down 39.1% from its October 2025 peak. Trading volume averaged 2.87 million last week, about 21% under its 65-day average of 3.61 million. Price bounced back. Investor activity lagged. (The

New York, July 11, 2026, 18:05 (EDT) Short interest in MaxLinear, Inc. (NASDAQ:MXL) rose 34.7% to 4.15 million shares as of June 30, when the stock closed at a record $128.03. Short interest tracks shares investors borrow and sell, aiming to profit if prices drop. U.S. markets are closed over the weekend. Shares ended Friday at $91.30, down 28.7% from that high. (Barron’s) The total short position was less striking, making up around 5% of shares available for trading — enough for shorts to cover in about a day at average volume. That signals more back-and-forth on the stock than big

KLA got a $270 price target, but the focus is on what TSMC does next. KLA Corporation (NASDAQ:KLAC) finished Friday at $231.52, up 0.9% on the day. Stifel kept its Buy rating, sticking with a $270 target. Even so, the stock closed 1.7% under its July 2 finish and is 23.3% below its June 30 level. That’s a steeper drop than other big U.S. chip-equipment names. (Benzinga) The gap is key since demand forecasts aren’t coming down. Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) will move its Iris AI chip into production in September, aiming to double its computing power to 14 gigawatts by 2027

Arista Networks gained $34 billion in market cap this week, but the numbers come with a caveat. Arista Networks, Inc. (NYSE:ANET) ended Friday at $186.96, up 16.9% from July 2. That price lifts its market cap to $238.1 billion, an increase of about $34.4 billion, assuming no change in share count. That gain is nearly three times Arista’s forecast for 2026 revenue, which stands at $11.5 billion. U.S. markets did not open Saturday. (The Wall Street Journal) The odd thing is what didn’t budge. FactSet’s 2026 EPS estimate stays at $3.63, same as a month back. The Street’s average price target

PORTLAND, July 11, 2026, 14:07 (PDT) Oregon’s attorney general has pulled a court motion asking for a delay of Paramount Skydance Corp’s (NASDAQ:PSKY) $110 billion deal for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc (NASDAQ:WBD), clearing the closest legal hurdle for now. But the state’s broader suit is still on. Oregon said it’s weighing its next move after Paramount pushed back against requests for records tied to its regulatory lobbying. (Reuters) U.S. markets shut for the weekend, but Friday’s action pointed to nerves on the WBD deal. Shares finished at $26.59, that’s $4.41 under the $31 cash offer. The gross deal spread stood at

Boeing lost $9.7 billion in value ahead of a 102-jet order test. New York, July 11, 2026, 16:07 (EDT) Boeing (NYSE:BA) ended Friday at $222.28, dropping 1.9% from the week before. Shares climbed Monday after the company rolled out its fourth 737 MAX assembly line but then dropped the rest of the week. About $9.7 billion in market value was lost from Monday’s high to Friday’s close. U.S. markets were closed Saturday.

New York, July 11, 2026, 15:10 EDT Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO) closed Friday at $121.31, up 2.5%. The stock climbed 7.6% since July 2, adding $8.62 and about 51 points to the Dow. That helped limit the Dow’s 263-point drop for the week, a decline of 0.5%. U.S. markets stayed shut Saturday. (Cisco Investor Relations) The change affects more than just Cisco stock. Because the Dow tracks price, not market cap, Cisco’s new higher share price puts more weight behind its moves. So, swings now push the index harder. (S&P Global) The bulk of the move came at the end of

NEW YORK, July 11, 2026, 15:09 (EDT) Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) ended Friday at $315.32, up 2.2% from the July 2 close, after a week dominated by a chip-supply pact worth more than $30 billion with Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO). Broadcom rose 11.0%; applying each company’s latest disclosed share count, that implies roughly $188 billion of added equity value for Broadcom, against about $98 billion for Apple. U.S. cash markets were closed Saturday. (Reuters) The gap matters because the pact solves two different investor problems. Apple gets access to key chips through 2031; Broadcom gets years of sales from a customer analysts estimate

The FCC approved the Reflect orbital space mirror project. The company targets 50,000 satellites, meaning launches could hit nearly 25 per day if it sticks to its timeline. The U.S. Federal Communications Commission signed off on Reflect Orbital’s first sunlight-reflecting test satellite. The order allows just one unit. That’s 0.002% of what the startup says is its target of over 50,000 satellites by 2035. (Engadget) The Earendil-1 grant gives permission for UHF, S-band, and X-band radio links from an orbit around 625 kilometres up.

New York, July 11, 2026, 13:07 (EDT) ExxonMobil Holdings Corporation (NYSE:XOM) closed Friday at $138.88, down 2.0% from Tuesday’s close. This came even after the company indicated about $5 billion in second-quarter earnings growth from Q1. U.S. markets were closed for the weekend. The parent company switched to the ExxonMobil Holdings name on July 2, replacing Exxon Mobil Corporation as the NYSE-listed entity, but kept the XOM ticker. (Exxon Mobil Corporation) The flat reaction is worth noting since a lot of the headline boost doesn’t look like it will turn into steady operating growth. Exxon said refining profits are set to

Houston, July 11, 2026, 11:10 (CDT) Fervo Energy Company (NASDAQ:FRVO) closed Friday at $27.13, giving the geothermal developer a $7.99 billion equity value — about 17% more than Ormat Technologies (NYSE:ORA), an established listed geothermal operator worth $6.80 billion. That premium now rests heavily on whether Fervo’s new 21-day drilling record can translate into lower plant costs and reliable power sales. (Google) The shares fell 0.8% Friday and finished 2.4% below their July 2 close. It was a rough path: Fervo dropped 14.6% on Tuesday, rebounded 16.0% on Thursday after its drilling update, then faded. At Friday’s close, the stock was

Singapore, July 12, 2026, 00:09 (SGT) Grab Holdings Limited (NASDAQ:GRAB) saw short interest climb 4.8% to 253.1 million shares as of June 30, according to new data out Friday, while the stock added 8.7% from June 15 to June 30. Short interest tracks how many shares traders have sold short, betting on a drop. Grab shares closed at $3.93 Friday. (MarketBeat) By the end of Friday, shorts were sitting on about $995 million worth of Grab shares. Covering the whole position would take around 4.4 trading days based on average volume, a metric called days to cover. That comes into play

Milan, July 11, 2026, 16:12 CEST Bending Spoons (NASDAQ:BSP) hired just 286 people from roughly 800,000 applicants in 2025—an acceptance rate of 0.036%—while its four founders retained 82.71% of voting power after the Milan-based software group went public. The pairing puts two kinds of scarcity at the centre of its first post-IPO test: access to the core team and access to corporate control. (SEC) That matters after a rough first full trading week. Nasdaq is closed for the weekend after Bending Spoons finished Friday at $32.91, down 9.3% from Monday and 18.7% from its $40.50 debut close, though still 13.5% above

Manchester, New Hampshire, July 11, 2026, 10:08 (EDT) JetBlue Airways (NASDAQ:JBLU) left Manchester-Boston Regional Airport on Wednesday, wrapping up operations only 17 months after starting service there. The airline cut flights on weaker routes and moved planes to busier airports. The last flight out of MHT flew on July 8. (thestreet.com) There was no drop in airport traffic. Departing passenger numbers rose 4.75% in the year to April, but scheduled departures jumped 8.60%, which is almost double the pace. That drop in average passengers per departure, down 3.5%, can help airlines work out where a plane is likely to earn more.
