Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 12, 2026)

Lightwave Logic Inc. (LWLG): $7.08 USD, +41.04% (+$2.06 USD), Technology. The stock skyrocketed on massive volume as the company announced a breakthrough in its electro-optic polymer platform, achieving industry-leading stability and speed for 800G and 1.6T optical transceivers. Investors are betting on LWLG becoming a cornerstone supplier for the next wave of high-speed AI data center interconnects.

ProFrac Holding Corp. (ACDC): $6.96 USD, +18.77% (+$1.10 USD), Energy. Shares surged as WTI crude oil prices approached $100 per barrel following supply disruption fears in the Middle East. As a leading energy services provider, ProFrac is seeing increased demand for hydraulic fracturing fleets as domestic producers accelerate drilling activity to capitalize on the price spike.

Celanese Corp. (CE): $59.60 USD, +14.75% (+$7.66 USD), Basic Materials. The chemical giant saw a sharp recovery as it announced a strategic restructuring of its acetyl chain business and a long-term supply agreement with a major EV battery manufacturer. The market reacted positively to the improved margin outlook and the company’s deepening ties to the energy transition supply chain.

LSB Industries Inc. (LXU): $15.44 USD, +14.37% (+$1.94 USD), Basic Materials. The stock climbed as rising natural gas prices—a key input for competitors—and tightening global fertilizer supplies drove expectations for higher selling prices. LXU’s focus on low-carbon ammonia production is also attracting ESG-focused capital as industrial demand for green hydrogen feedstock ramps up.

Kosmos Energy Ltd. (KOS): $2.28 USD, +13.43% (+$0.27 USD), Energy. The independent oil and gas producer rallied alongside the broader energy sector as geopolitical risks in the Persian Gulf threatened global supply. Investors were particularly focused on Kosmos’s offshore projects in West Africa, which are seen as increasingly critical “stable” alternatives to Middle Eastern supply.

CF Industries Holdings Inc. (CF): $136.00 USD, +13.21% (+$15.87 USD), Basic Materials. CF Industries hit near 52-week highs as a global scramble for nitrogen fertilizers intensified. The company is benefiting from a “perfect storm” of rising agricultural commodity prices and its own cost-advantaged North American production base compared to European peers facing high energy costs.

Occidental Petroleum Corp. (OXY): $58.41 USD, +5.09% (+$2.83 USD), Energy. Shares surged to a new 52-week high as Brent crude prices touched $100 per barrel following escalating geopolitical tensions and a vow from Iran to keep the Strait of Hormuz closed. The stock received an additional boost from a double upgrade by Piper Sandler (to Overweight) and Wells Fargo, with analysts highlighting the company’s superior capital efficiency in the Permian Basin and its strategic “physical AI” positioning as a domestic energy provider for future data center power needs.

Exxon Mobil Corp. (XOM): $153.53 USD, +1.29% (+$1.95 USD), Energy. Shares trended higher as Brent crude surged past $100 per barrel due to escalating tensions in the Middle East and the evacuation of non-essential staff from regional operations. The stock’s momentum was further bolstered by a significant price target hike from Piper Sandler—raising it to $186 from $145—and a unanimous board recommendation to redomicile the company from New Jersey to Texas to leverage a more favorable regulatory environment.

Suncor Energy Inc. (SU): $81.46 CAD, +2.98% (+$2.36 CAD), Energy. The stock hit a new 52-week high on the Toronto Stock Exchange as investors pivoted to Canadian oil sands as a “safe haven” amid escalating Middle East conflicts and a surge in Brent crude past $100 per barrel. Beyond the geopolitical premium, the rally was fueled by the official launch of Suncor’s renewed C$3.3 billion share buyback program and a price target hike from CIBC to C$88, with analysts citing the company’s aggressive 10% increase in monthly repurchases as a primary driver for EPS growth in 2026.

Kosmos Energy Ltd. (KOS): $2.28 USD, +13.43% (+$0.27 USD), Energy. The stock rebounded sharply on Thursday following the close of its $185.3 million public offering and news of significant insider buying. CEO Andrew Inglis and Director Adebayo Ogunlesi purchased a combined $6.6 million in shares, signaling strong internal confidence despite recent dilution. The recovery was also supported by surging Brent crude prices and a positive market reaction to the company’s plan to use offering proceeds to aggressively pay down its multi-billion dollar debt load.

Navitas Semiconductor Corp. (NVTS): $9.98 USD, -7.93% (-$0.86 USD), Semiconductors. The stock pulled back on Thursday as investors locked in profits following Wednesday’s massive 25% surge. Despite the daily dip, sentiment remains buoyed by the launch of the 5th-generation GeneSiC platform and new 1200V MOSFETs designed to slash heat dissipation in AI data center server racks. Analysts note that while the pivot away from low-margin mobile markets is compressing near-term revenue, the company’s strategic positioning within Nvidia’s 800V AI factory ecosystem makes it a high-beta favorite for the infrastructure build-out.

Incannex Healthcare Inc. (IXHL): $3.08 USD, -48.41% (-$2.89 USD), Healthcare. The stock plummeted on Thursday after the company announced the pricing of a $10 million registered direct offering of 2,000,000 shares and warrants at a combined price of $5.00. While the capital is intended to fund the completion of the DReAMzz Phase 2 study for its sleep apnea drug IHL-42X, the market reacted sharply to the substantial dilution and the fact that the offering was priced significantly below the previous close. Sentiment was further weighed down by the company’s decision to terminate its at-the-market (ATM) facility, reducing future financing flexibility as it eyes a Phase 3 transition in 2027.

WELL Health Technologies Corp. (WELL): $4.08 CAD, -1.69% (-$0.07 CAD), Healthcare. The stock eased lower on Thursday as investors adjusted positions ahead of the company’s year-end 2025 financial results scheduled for March 19. Despite the minor pullback, sentiment remains positive following recent reports of record patient visits and a strategic expansion of its credit facility to fund further AI-driven healthcare acquisitions. Analysts maintain a strong buy rating with a consensus price target of $7.78, viewing the current consolidation as a potential entry point before the next phase of its “WELL Star” platform IPO.

Vertex Pharmaceuticals Inc. (VRTX): $478.13 USD, -2.89% (-$14.25 USD), Healthcare. Shares pulled back on Thursday as investors locked in profits following a massive 8.4% surge earlier in the week sparked by “unprecedented” Phase 3 interim results for its kidney disease drug, povetacicept. Despite the daily decline, the stock remains a top institutional pick as it successfully transitions from a cystic fibrosis specialist to a multi-franchise leader, bolstered by the blockbuster launch of its non-opioid pain treatment, suzetrigine. Analyst sentiment remains overwhelmingly bullish, with Oppenheimer and Morgan Stanley recently hiking price targets to $600 and $596 respectively, citing the company’s superior 35.2% net margins and a pipeline that is now silencing long-term skeptics.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 11, 2026)

Navitas Semiconductor Corp. (NVTS): $10.84 USD, +24.88% (+$2.16 USD), Semiconductors. The stock surged as the company unveiled its next-generation GaNSafe and GeneSiC technology specifically designed for AI data center power supplies. Investors rallied behind the specialized power semiconductors, which are increasingly seen as essential infrastructure for reducing the massive energy footprint of Blackwell-class AI server clusters. This high-volume move marks a significant breakout as Navitas positions itself as a critical efficiency play in the global “Physical AI” and robotics supply chain.

Nebius Group N.V. (NBIS): $112.00 USD, +16.14% (+$15.57 USD), Technology. The stock catapulted after NVIDIA announced a massive $2 billion strategic investment in the company. This partnership establishes a deep engineering collaboration to build out “AI Factories” and hyperscale cloud infrastructure, with Nebius planning to deploy over 5 gigawatts of NVIDIA-powered compute capacity by 2030. The deal cements Nebius as a premier “neocloud” winner, specifically optimized for the burgeoning era of Agentic AI and large-scale inference workloads.

Acurx Pharmaceuticals Inc. (ACXP): $6.03 USD, +107.93% (+$3.13 USD), Healthcare. The stock experienced a massive triple-digit breakout as the company officially signaled its transition into a late-stage clinical powerhouse. Momentum was driven by the launch of a new pilot trial for ibezapolstat targeting recurrent C. difficile (rCDI) and the confirmation that their global Phase 3 program has secured the necessary regulatory green lights from the FDA and EMA. Investor confidence was further bolstered by management’s decision to take voluntary 10% salary cuts to preserve capital for upcoming trials, coupled with the re-highlighting of a staggering 96% clinical cure rate from earlier studies. With a major financial and business update scheduled for March 13, the market is aggressively pricing in the company’s path toward commercialization.

XCF Global Inc. (SAFX): $0.50 USD, +74.50% (+$0.21 USD), Energy/Renewable Fuels. The stock skyrocketed after the company secured critical shareholder approval to remove a “Share Cap” on its equity issuance, clearing the path for a $10 million strategic investment from EEME Energy. This funding is earmarked for the conversion of the New Rise Reno facility into a dedicated Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) production hub. Beyond the immediate cash infusion, investors are reacting to the company’s progress on a transformative three-party merger with Southern Energy Renewables and DevvStream, which aims to create the first publicly traded, vertically integrated SAF platform in the U.S. with a production capacity goal of 80 million gallons per year by 2028.

60 Degrees Pharmaceuticals Inc. (SXTP): $3.22 USD, +71.28% (+$1.34 USD), Healthcare. The stock skyrocketed after the company announced that all three patients in its expanded-access clinical trial for relapsing babesiosis were successfully cured using its tafenoquine-based regimen. The results, which showed a near 100% cure rate when combining trial data with prior studies from the Yale School of Public Health, have prompted the company to call for a formal review of existing treatment guidelines for the tick-borne illness. This clinical breakthrough is a major milestone for the company’s lead drug, ARAKODA, potentially expanding its market use beyond malaria prevention into a life-saving treatment for immunosuppressed patients.

Paranovus Entertainment Technology Ltd. (PAVS): $2.28 USD, +62.86% (+$0.88 USD), Technology/E-commerce. The stock experienced a massive surge as a potential short squeeze took hold, fueled by an astronomical short interest of over 60%. Investors are reacting to the company’s aggressive pivot into AI-powered entertainment and TikTok e-commerce solutions, which recently delivered a staggering 18,037% year-over-year revenue increase. This momentum is further supported by the successful completion of a strategic overhaul, including a 1-for-100 reverse split and a move into the high-growth “neocloud” and digital branding space. With technical indicators flashing buy signals and the company regaining Nasdaq compliance, the stock is becoming a focal point for traders looking for high-octane growth in the Agentic AI and social commerce sectors.

Actelis Networks Inc. (ASNS): $0.56 USD, +47.57% (+$0.18 USD), Technology/Networking. The stock surged after the company announced a significant order from a Japanese governmental entity to supply dozens of its MetaLight networking units. The deal supports critical infrastructure modernization across Japan’s transportation, utilities, and public safety sectors, with potential extensions into defense-related installations. Actelis’ hybrid fiber-copper technology is proving to be a high-demand solution for agencies looking to achieve fiber-grade connectivity over legacy wiring without the disruption of new construction. This win follows a massive 250% rally earlier in the month tied to a Caltrans highway project, signaling a sustained trend of government-led “Physical AI” and IoT infrastructure upgrades.

Roma Green Finance Ltd. (ROMA): $4.83 USD, +39.19% (+$1.36 USD), Industrials/ESG Consulting. The Hong Kong-based ESG specialist experienced a significant rally as momentum buyers returned to the ticker following a period of high volatility earlier in the year. While no major new filings were released on Wednesday, the stock benefited from a broader sector rotation into sustainability and climate-risk advisory services. Technical traders noted the stock’s strength as it broke through key resistance levels, supported by its zero-debt balance sheet and impressive 60% year-over-year revenue growth. This move solidifies ROMA as a speculative favorite in the small-cap ESG space, particularly as companies globally ramp up compliance ahead of new 2026 reporting standards.

DigitalOcean Holdings Inc. (DOCN): $68.69 USD, +10.77% (+$6.68 USD), Technology/Cloud Computing. The cloud provider for SMBs surged as a high-profile partnership with Workato showcased the power of its “Agentic Inference Cloud.” Workato’s AI Research Lab selected DigitalOcean’s NVIDIA Hopper GPU-powered platform to run enterprise-scale AI agents, highlighting significant cost savings and performance gains over hyperscale competitors. This validation of DigitalOcean’s infrastructure for production-grade AI workloads, combined with a string of price target hikes from firms like Oppenheimer ($85) and Goldman Sachs ($78) following its recent earnings beat, has solidified the stock as a top-tier play for investors targeting the intersection of cloud services and autonomous AI.

Tesla Inc. (TSLA): $407.82 USD, +2.15% (+$8.59 USD), Consumer Cyclical/EV. The stock rose as investors rallied behind a surge in China sales, with February deliveries from Giga Shanghai jumping 91% year-over-year. Momentum was further amplified by Elon Musk’s announcement of a new joint project with xAI called “Digital Optimus” (or Macrohard), a system designed to use Grok-based reasoning to automate complex enterprise and clerical tasks. While some analysts raised concerns about a potential third year of delivery declines, the market shifted focus toward the accelerating “Physical AI” narrative, bolstered by teasers of human-like “Gen 3” dexterous hands for the Optimus robot and the wide rollout of FSD v13, which data shows has achieved a 95% reduction in disengagements.

Trilogy Metals Inc. (TMQ.TO): $5.62 CAD, +1.44% (+$0.08 CAD), Basic Materials. The Alaskan-focused copper developer edged higher as investors digested the U.S. Department of the Interior’s decision to open 2.1 million acres in the Dalton Corridor. This move effectively removes a major land-status barrier for the Ambler Access Project (the 211-mile industrial road), which is the critical catalyst for unlocking Trilogy’s high-grade Arctic and Bornite deposits. Despite a wider fiscal 2025 net loss due to non-cash accounting charges from a $17.8 million federal investment, the market remains focused on the company’s fully-funded $35 million 2026 budget. This “Growth Radar” favorite is now aggressively moving toward mine permit submissions for the Arctic Project, leveraging expedited federal frameworks to secure its position in the domestic critical minerals supply chain.

Novavax Inc. (NVAX): $10.80 USD, +1.03% (+$0.11 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The stock is trending as it completes its transformation into a high-margin licensing engine, marked by its first full year of GAAP profitability in 2025 with $440 million in net income. Investors are rallying behind the company’s pivot toward an asset-light model, leveraging its proprietary Matrix-M adjuvant technology through massive global partnerships with Sanofi and Pfizer to drive long-term, non-dilutive revenue.

Enovix Corp (ENVX): $5.01 USD, +1.42% (+$0.07 USD), Technology/Electrical Equipment. The stock is trending as investors monitor the company’s aggressive manufacturing pivot at Fab2 in Malaysia, where a leadership overhaul and new ISO 9001:2015 certification have signaled a transition from R&D to high-volume “Physical AI” battery production.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Nio Inc. (NIO): $5.47 USD, -4.04% (-$0.23 USD), Consumer Cyclical/EV. Shares cooled as investors locked in profits following a massive 15% surge the previous day. Despite the dip, the sentiment remains anchored by Nio’s historic milestone—its first-ever quarterly net profit of $40.4 million—and a massive 76% revenue jump. While some analysts remain cautious on long-term margins, the company’s aggressive Q1 delivery guidance of 83,000 units suggests a fundamental pivot from “growth-at-all-costs” to a sustainable, profitable production model.

Aecon Group Inc. (ARE.TO): $41.45 CAD, -1.14% (-$0.48 CAD), Industrials. Shares saw a minor retracement on Thursday as the market digested a massive 7.5% surge from the prior session. Despite the slight dip, investor sentiment remains bullish following the company’s robust Q4 earnings report, which highlighted a record-breaking $10 billion backlog. The construction giant is benefiting from a strategic pivot toward high-margin energy transition and utility infrastructure projects, which now represent over 60% of its total revenue. Analysts noted that the current valuation remains attractive as Aecon leverages its dominant position in Canada’s nuclear refurbishment and transportation sectors to drive long-term cash flow growth.

AeroVironment, Inc. (AVAV): $207.73 USD, -6.25% (-$13.84 USD), Defense. Shares slipped as the market reacted to a $200 million stock offering to fund “Physical AI” R&D. Despite the dilution dip, the company is coming off a massive Q3 earnings beat and a record $463 million backlog. The decline is seen as a technical breather after recent all-time highs, with the core narrative still focused on surging global demand for its Switchblade autonomous drone systems.

Quantum BioPharma Ltd. (QNTM): $2.10 USD, -25.00% (-$0.70 USD), Healthcare. Shares cratered to an all-time low after the company revised its $4 million private placement terms, significantly lowering conversion and warrant prices. While the firm is pushing toward Phase 2 trials for its Lucid-MS candidate, the market is aggressively pricing in the heavy shareholder dilution required to fund operations and its ongoing $700 million legal battle against major financial institutions.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 10, 2026)

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $184.77 USD, +1.16% (+$2.12 USD), Semiconductors/AI. The AI titan edged higher on Tuesday as anticipation builds for the GTC 2026 conference next week, where CEO Jensen Huang is expected to detail the “agentic AI” roadmap. While the stock has essentially traded sideways in early 2026 despite record-shattering Q4 revenue of $68.1 billion, bulls are focusing on the massive Blackwell supply commitments, which have nearly doubled to $95.2 billion. BofA Securities recently reiterated a $300 price target, noting that the stock’s forward P/E of 17x represents a historical low relative to its 70%+ projected growth. Further excitement stems from the launch of NemoClaw, an open-source platform for AI agents, signaling Nvidia’s shift from a hardware provider to a foundational software ecosystem. Despite the optimism, some analysts warn that “priced to perfection” expectations for the upcoming Rubin architecture could lead to short-term volatility if the GTC keynote lacks a major “thesis-altering” surprise.

AXT Inc. (AXTI): $44.30 USD, +14.89% (+$5.74 USD), Semiconductors. The compound semiconductor specialist rebounded sharply as investors looked past a wave of heavy insider selling from the previous week. While CEO Morris Young and Director Jesse Chen offloaded nearly $12 million in shares collectively between March 4 and March 9, buyers returned on Tuesday to capitalize on the sustained demand for indium phosphide (InP) substrates used in AI data centers. Analysts from Wedbush and Northland maintain aggressive price targets of $28 and $35, respectively, citing AXT’s critical role in high-speed optical transceivers for Google and Amazon. Despite the recovery, the stock remains highly volatile near its 52-week high, with broader concerns lingering over China-related export permit delays and a Q4 revenue guidance cut.

Figure Technology Solutions Inc. (FIGR): $39.59 USD, +21.29% (+$6.95 USD), Financial Technology. The blockchain-native fintech surged as investors breathed a sigh of relief following the expiration of the IPO lock-up period on March 10, 2026. Despite fears of a mass sell-off, the stock rallied on “relief” buying and a robust February operating update showing a 127% year-over-year jump in consumer loan volume to $896 million. Investor sentiment was further bolstered by the company’s recent launch of the world’s first fully on-chain public equity offering and a newly authorized $200 million share buyback program. While Mizuho recently trimmed its price target to $55, it maintained an “Outperform” rating, citing Figure’s high-margin expansion into the $670 billion auto-loan market. The stock remains a favorite for those betting on the “tokenization of everything,” even as it faces short-term volatility from a recent Q4 earnings miss.

VNET Group Inc. (VNET): $11.23 USD, +14.71% (+$1.44 USD), Technology/Data Centers. The China-based carrier-neutral data center provider surged as investors positioned themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings release scheduled for March 16. Sentiment was further electrified by news that VNET recently secured a massive 500MW capacity order from ByteDance, the largest in its history, highlighting the explosive demand for AI-ready infrastructure in the region. To fuel this expansion, the company recently closed a $138 million private placement and is leveraging a new “green” REIT structure on the Shanghai Stock Exchange to recycle capital. While analysts at Zacks and Morningstar remain cautious due to a revised lower EPS consensus, the stock is currently trading near 52-week highs, supported by a “bull case” valuation of $15.31 as it pivots aggressively toward wholesale AI data center (AIDC) services.

BridgeBio Pharma Inc. (BBIO): $74.32 USD, +13.22% (+$8.68 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The genetic disease specialist surged to near-all-time highs as investors moved in ahead of a high-stakes “late-breaker” presentation at the MDA Clinical & Scientific Conference scheduled for Wednesday, March 11. Momentum was further ignited by William Blair initiating coverage with an “Outperform” rating and a $93 fair value estimate, labeling the firm a “de-risked” commercial powerhouse. Traders are specifically focused on the final Phase 3 FORTIFY data for BBP-418, which targets a rare muscular dystrophy (LGMD2I/R9) and is slated for an FDA submission in the first half of 2026. This technical breakout follows a period of consolidation and heavy insider selling, as the market begins to price in a “triple-submission” runway for 2026 that includes therapies for ADH1 and achondroplasia alongside the accelerating commercial launch of Attruby.

Nio Inc. (NIO): $5.70 USD, +15.38% (+$0.76 USD), Consumer Discretionary/EV. The Chinese electric vehicle maker achieved a historic milestone on Tuesday, reporting its first-ever quarterly net profit since its inception in 2014. For Q4 2025, Nio posted a net income of $40.4 million, driven by record-breaking deliveries of 124,807 vehicles—a 71.7% year-over-year surge. The financial turnaround was bolstered by an optimized product mix and significant cost-cutting in R&D, pushing vehicle margins to 18.1%. Management provided aggressive Q1 2026 guidance, projecting deliveries to nearly double year-over-year. Following the report, Nomura upgraded the stock to “Buy” with a $6.60 price target, while Citigroup highlighted falling battery costs as a long-term tailwind. Despite the rally, investors remain cautious regarding a newly approved 2026 stock incentive plan for CEO William Li, which could grant him up to 248 million shares if high-performance targets are met.

Rivian Automotive Inc. (RIVN): $16.54 USD, +4.22% (+$0.67 USD), Consumer Discretionary/EV. The electric vehicle manufacturer climbed as TD Cowen upgraded the stock from “Hold” to “Buy” with a $20 price target, citing a massive potential “Model 3 moment” for the upcoming R2 SUV. Analysts estimate the more affordable R2 could drive annual demand between 212,000 and 335,000 units, significantly outpacing current Wall Street projections for 2027. This bullish sentiment comes just days before the R2’s full reveal at SXSW in Austin on March 12, where the company is expected to open the configurator for a vehicle priced near $45,000. Despite a year-to-date decline of nearly 15%, the rally was further supported by a surprise 9% GAAP gross margin in the most recent quarter and progress on Rivian’s in-house AI processors for autonomous driving. While some firms like JPMorgan remain cautious with lower targets, the market is currently rewarding Rivian’s pivot from a niche luxury player to a high-volume Tesla competitor.

Maze Therapeutics Inc. (MAZE): $51.06 USD, +13.30% (+$5.99 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The clinical-stage biotech hit a fresh all-time high on Tuesday following a major “Outperform” initiation from Mizuho, which set a street-high price target of $97. Analysts pointed to the company’s “Compass” platform as a uniquely de-risked approach to precision medicine, specifically highlighting the upcoming Phase 2 data for MZE829 in APOL1-mediated kidney disease. Investor sentiment has also been bolstered by a “rebound” narrative after the FTC previously blocked its Sanofi partnership, as the market now values Maze’s ability to commercialize its Pompe disease and CKD assets independently. While the stock has surged over 330% in the last year, the current breakout above $50 signals strong institutional conviction ahead of several key mid-2026 clinical readouts.

BridgeBio Pharma Inc. (BBIO): $74.32 USD, +13.22% (+$8.68 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The genetic disease specialist surged to a technical breakout as William Blair initiated coverage with an “Outperform” rating and a $93.03 fair value estimate. Analysts labeled the firm a “de-risked” commercial powerhouse, citing the accelerating launch of Attruby and a “triple-submission” regulatory runway for 2026. Momentum is peaking ahead of a high-stakes “late-breaking” oral presentation at the MDA Clinical & Scientific Conference on Wednesday, March 11, where the company will reveal expanded Phase 3 FORTIFY data for BBP-418 (targeting limb-girdle muscular dystrophy). With an FDA filing for BBP-418 expected in the first half of 2026 and additional submissions planned for encaleret and infigratinib, the market is aggressively pricing in BridgeBio’s transition from an R&D-heavy biotech to a multi-product commercial leader.

5N Plus Inc. (VNP): $29.17 CAD, +3.37% (+$0.95 CAD), Materials/Specialty Semiconductors. The Montreal-based supplier of essential semiconductor materials rebounded on Tuesday, snapping a four-day losing streak as investors weighed its dominant role in the AI and space-solar supply chains. The stock’s recovery follows a “record-setting” 2025 fiscal report where revenue surged 44% and net debt was halved. Management has issued a robust 2026 outlook, targeting adjusted EBITDA between $100 million and $105 million, fueled by a 25% capacity expansion at its AZUR SPACE subsidiary to meet “insatiable” demand for satellite and AI-driven terrestrial solar power. While the firm warned of normalized margins for bismuth-based products and rising input costs, analysts remain bullish; Desjardins and Mizuho maintain “Buy” ratings with price targets reaching as high as $36.86. A recent $18.1 million U.S. government grant for germanium recycling at its Utah facility further cements 5N Plus as a critical pillar in the Western semiconductor “de-risking” narrative, making it a favorite for 2026 growth portfolios.

FingerMotion Inc. (FNGR): $1.20 USD, -2.85% (-$0.035 USD), Technology/Software. The mobile services specialist drifted lower on Tuesday as it continues to navigate a challenging transition toward a more diversified business model. Investor sentiment remains cautious following the company’s Q3 fiscal 2026 results, which revealed a 32% year-over-year revenue decline to $5.80 million and persistent net losses of $1.67 million. While management is pivoting resources toward the higher-margin Command and Communication segment and recently signed a memorandum of understanding to explore a North American marketplace initiative, capital constraints have hindered promotional activities for its core DaGe platform. Despite these headwinds, the company recently re-elected its board and re-appointed CEO Martin Shen at its February annual meeting, signaling leadership stability. Analysts at StockInvest.us have recently downgraded the stock to a “Sell Candidate,” noting that while it finds support near $1.13, it currently holds several negative technical signals and faces a short cash runway of less than one year.

Boeing Co. (BA): $217.76 USD, -3.22% (-$7.24 USD), Industrials/Aerospace. Shares of the planemaker fell on Tuesday after the company disclosed that a wiring defect discovered in several 737 MAX aircraft will cause near-term delivery delays. The issue, traced to a machining error that resulted in small scratches on the wiring, requires “rework” on a specific group of undelivered jets to ensure they meet quality standards. While Boeing maintained its full-year 2026 delivery goal of roughly 500 MAX planes, the setback complicates efforts to demonstrate manufacturing discipline to the FAA following years of heightened oversight. The negative price action overshadowed news of a $289 million direct commercial sale to Israel for 5,000 Small Diameter Bombs and ongoing reports of a potential 500-jet order from China. Analysts remain cautiously optimistic about the long-term recovery under CEO Kelly Ortberg, though this latest “hiccup” serves as a reminder of the persistent operational hurdles facing the Everett production lines.

Lockheed Martin Corp. (LMT): $651.22 USD, -1.95% (-$12.93 USD), Industrials/Defense. Shares of the defense giant retreated on Tuesday as investors reacted to President Trump’s recent optimistic comments suggesting the Middle East conflict could be “pretty much complete.” The potential for a faster-than-expected de-escalation triggered a broader “peace pivot” in the defense sector, with Lockheed serving as a primary barometer for investor sentiment. Despite the daily dip, the company remains fundamentally active, announcing a new incentive agreement with the state of Alabama to expand its Pike County munitions facility to meet rising demand for JASSM and LRASM missiles. Additionally, its Sikorsky unit unveiled the R66 TURBINETRUCK, an autonomous cargo helicopter developed with Robinson Helicopter, marking the 21st aircraft to integrate Lockheed’s MATRIX autonomy system. While analysts at Zacks maintain a “Value” score for the long term, the stock is currently navigating short-term volatility as traders weigh record defense spending against shifting geopolitical headlines.

General Dynamics Corp. (GD): $355.59 USD, -1.77% (-$6.39 USD), Industrials/Defense. Much like its peer Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics saw its recent “geopolitical premium” soften on Tuesday as traders reacted to the potential de-escalation of the Iran conflict. Despite the daily dip, the company underscored its long-term value by announcing a 6% increase in its quarterly dividend to $1.59 per share, payable in May 2026. Fundamentally, the company remains on a tear; its Gulfstream G700 recently received certification in India, clearing a major path for international deliveries of its flagship jet. While its aerospace and marine segments have faced occasional execution hurdles and supply-chain delays, analysts remain bullish on GD’s $115 billion unspent budget authority and the ramp-up of the Columbia-class submarine program. With a consensus “Buy” rating and a focus on high-margin G700 deliveries, the stock continues to be a staple for defensive growth portfolios despite the short-term noise.

Constellation Energy Corp (CEG): $317.09 USD, -1.83% (-$5.90 USD), Utilities/Energy. The leading nuclear power producer drifted lower on Tuesday as part of a broader consolidation following its record-breaking 17.5% surge in February. Investor focus is shifting toward the company’s upcoming 2026 Business and Earnings Outlook conference call scheduled for March 31, where management is expected to detail the integration of the recently acquired Calpine fleet. Despite the minor pullback, CEG remains a top “AI energy” pick; the company recently secured a 380MW deal with CyrusOne to power a Texas data center and continues to benefit from its 20-year nuclear supply agreements with Microsoft and Meta. Analysts at TD Cowen recently raised their price target to $454, citing a likely acceleration in power contracting and the massive potential of the “Powered Land” strategy. Currently trading at roughly 28x forward earnings, the stock is navigating a high-valuation environment while the market awaits a $1 billion DOE loan guarantee to finalize the restart of the Crane Clean Energy Center (Three Mile Island).

Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM): $148.13 USD, -1.52% (-$2.28 USD), Energy/Oil & Gas. Shares of the energy giant drifted lower on Tuesday as crude oil prices pulled back sharply from recent highs following President Trump’s comments suggesting an accelerated timeline for de-escalation in the Middle East. The downward move coincided with the company’s March 10 dividend payment ($1.03/share) and a strategic announcement that the Board has recommended redomiciling the company’s legal home from New Jersey to Texas. While the redomiciliation is intended to streamline regulatory oversight, investors were more focused on the broader “peace pivot” that saw WTI crude tumble toward $87. Despite the daily dip, Exxon remains fundamentally robust, with its Guyana production recently surpassing 900,000 barrels per day and analysts at BofA and Citi recently raising their price targets to $151 and $150, respectively. The stock continues to be viewed as a premier defensive play, supported by a $20 billion share buyback program for 2026 and industry-leading low-cost production in the Permian and Stabroek blocks.

Palantir Technologies Inc. (PLTR): $151.14 USD, -3.38% (-$5.29 USD), Software/Data Analytics. The AI powerhouse drifted lower on Tuesday as part of a broader “SaaSpocalypse” sell-off hitting high-valuation software names. Despite reporting explosive 70% year-over-year revenue growth in its latest quarter and a record $4.3 billion in total contract value, the stock is currently a battleground for valuation skeptics. Analysts from The Motley Fool and Nasdaq have warned that even with its 121% surge in U.S. commercial revenue, a forward P/E ratio exceeding 160 leaves “no room for error.” Adding to the volatility, some investors are rotating out of defense-linked tech following recent de-escalation rhetoric in the Middle East. While bulls like Wedbush and Bank of America maintain price targets as high as $255—citing its unique “Ontology” moat and a recent partnership with Polymarket—the stock remains 25% below its November highs as the market tests its ability to sustain 60%+ growth through 2026.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 9, 2026)

Xenon Pharmaceuticals Inc. (XENE): $62.76 USD, +49.64% (+$20.82 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The neuroscience specialist delivered what analysts called a “best-in-class” result for its Phase 3 X-TOLE2 study of azetukalner. The trial showed a remarkable 53.2% reduction in monthly seizure frequency for epilepsy patients, far exceeding the 10.4% seen in the placebo group. Following the news, Baird and Jefferies aggressively raised their price targets to $97 and $100 respectively, anticipating an FDA filing in Q3 2026. Despite the rally, the company capitalized on the momentum by announcing a $500 million secondary stock offering to fuel its commercial launch.

Autozi Internet Technology (Global) Ltd. (AZI): $0.65 USD, +146.40% (+$0.39 USD), Consumer Discretionary/Automotive. The Beijing-based automotive service provider skyrocketed on Monday after announcing that its controlling shareholder fulfilled a $7 million capital injection commitment. Market enthusiasm was further amplified by a proposal from the shareholder and co-investors to invest an additional $110 million at a price of $1.30 per share—a massive premium compared to its recent trading levels. This funding is earmarked for expanding its aftermarket service network and upgrading its digital platform with AI and big data tools, providing a critical liquidity buffer for the micro-cap firm.

Relmada Therapeutics Inc. (RLMD): $7.17 USD, +61.12% (+$2.72 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The clinical-stage biotech saw a massive surge on Monday after announcing durable 12-month interim data from its Phase 2 trial of NDV-01 for high-risk bladder cancer. The study reported a 76% complete response (CR) rate at one year, with a particularly strong 80% CR in the difficult-to-treat BCG-unresponsive population. Parallel to the data, Relmada secured an oversubscribed $160 million private placement (PIPE) from elite institutional investors like OrbiMed and RA Capital, providing the “war chest” needed to advance into Phase 3 registrational trials mid-year.

AN2 Therapeutics Inc. (ANTX): $5.25 USD, +84.21% (+$2.40 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The clinical-stage biopharma shares surged to a new 52-week high on Monday following the announcement of a $40 million private placement financing. The deal, which includes participation from high-profile institutional investors like Coastlands Capital and Vivo Capital, provides a critical “capital infusion” to advance its lead candidate, epetraborole. This momentum is further bolstered by the company’s recent pivot to initiate a Phase 2 study for Polycythemia Vera (PV) in Q3 2026, a move supported by data showing the drug’s unique ability to provide sustained hematocrit reduction in rare blood cancer patients.

XCF Global Inc. (SAFX): $0.32 USD, +46.20% (+$0.10 USD), Energy/Renewable Fuels. The Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) producer surged on Monday following a weekend of high-volume accumulation after the company cleared a major regulatory hurdle for its “New Rise Reno 2” facility. The market is reacting to XCF’s aggressive expansion strategy, which includes a planned $300 million investment to double its production capacity to 80 million gallons annually. Despite recent Nasdaq compliance warnings regarding its bid price, investors are piling back into the “decarbonization” play, betting on the company’s ability to capitalize on the 2026 global mandate shift where airlines are now required to hit a 2% SAF blend.

EON Resources Inc. (EONR): $0.80 USD, +19.40% (+$0.13 USD), Energy/Oil & Gas. The Permian Basin producer surged on Monday as it continues to be treated as a high-conviction “security hedge” against Middle East supply volatility. The rally is supported by the company’s aggressive 2026 turnaround strategy, which includes a transition to horizontal drilling and a recently expanded hedging position covering 60% of its 2026 production at prices above $60.00 per barrel. With heavy insider buying—totaling over 1.5 million shares since late 2025—and a significant debt reduction program, investors are increasingly betting on EONR as a high-momentum domestic energy play for the current “triple-digit oil” environment.

Nuvve Holding Corp. Warrant (NVVEW): $0.0088 USD, +76.00% (+$0.0038 USD), Energy/Grid Technology. The vehicle-to-grid (V2G) specialist’s warrants exploded on Monday following a Friday announcement of a massive strategic partnership with OMNIA Global. The deal aims to address a development pipeline exceeding 1 GW over the next 24 months, starting with a 50MW battery storage system in Sweden. With potential annual revenues in the Swedish market estimated at up to $325,000 per MW, investors are betting on Nuvve’s transition from a niche EV charging provider to a major player in the high-margin European grid-scale energy storage sector.

Applied Optoelectronics Inc. (AAOI): $110.62 USD, +15.74% (+$15.04 USD), Technology/Hardware. The optical networking leader surged to an 8-year high on Monday after announcing its first volume order for 1.6T data center transceivers from a long-term hyperscale customer. The initial order, valued at over $200 million, marks a critical commercial milestone as AI clusters scale toward higher-speed optics. Analysts at Rosenblatt responded by raising their price target to $140, citing AAOI’s growing domestic manufacturing footprint in Texas and its transition from 800G to 1.6T as a “supercycle” driver for 2026.

MicroStrategy Inc. (MSTR): $138.95 USD, +4.06% (+$5.42 USD), Technology/Digital Assets. The “Bitcoin Proxy” outperformed the broader market on Monday following a dual-announcement that reinforced its aggressive treasury strategy. In an 8-K filing, the company disclosed it acquired 17,994 Bitcoins between March 2 and March 8 for approximately $1.28 billion (average price of $70,946). This purchase was funded through the strategic sale of both common and preferred stock (STRC), bringing its total corporate holdings to a massive 738,731 BTC. Simultaneously, MicroStrategy expanded its enterprise software footprint by launching “Mosaic Sentinel” and “Cloud Cost Arbitrage” at the Gartner Summit, aiming to leverage AI for automated cloud spend optimization.

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $182.65 USD, +2.72% (+$4.83 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. The AI bellwether rose on Monday as investors positioned ahead of the GTC 2026 conference (March 16-19), where CEO Jensen Huang is expected to unveil the next-generation Vera Rubin architecture. Confidence was further bolstered by a multi-billion dollar investment and purchase commitment with Lumentum to secure high-bandwidth optical interconnects, ensuring the supply chain remains resilient for the next wave of data center build-outs. Despite recent regulatory headlines, the stock remains a high-conviction play with 2026 revenue projections nearing $216 billion.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $55.02 USD, +1.53% (+$0.83 USD), Energy/Oil & Gas. Shares gained ground on Monday as global crude prices spiked toward the $100-per-barrel mark following heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Beyond the sector-wide tailwind, OXY drew significant attention by successfully settling its upsized $1.2 billion debt buyback and cash tender offers. This aggressive deleveraging, combined with its continued leadership in Direct Air Capture (DAC) through the STRATOS project, keeps the stock positioned as a dual-play on traditional energy demand and long-term carbon management.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $12.16 USD, +4.20% (+$0.49 USD), Energy/Nuclear. The small modular reactor (SMR) pioneer finished Monday in the green, shaking off early-session weakness as the broader energy sector rallied amid $100+ oil prices. While the stock remains down significantly from its 2025 highs, it is benefiting from a “flight to domestic power” as the only SMR designer with a Standard Design Approval from the U.S. NRC. Sentiment was also lifted by ongoing collaboration news with Oak Ridge National Laboratory to integrate AI into nuclear fuel management, though gains are being capped by a wave of law firm alerts regarding a pending securities fraud class action related to its ENTRA1 partnership.

Oklo Inc (OKLO): $61.78 USD, +6.06% (+$3.53 USD), Utilities/Advanced Nuclear. The microreactor developer rallied on Monday as the “Nuclear Renaissance” gained fresh momentum. Shares were driven by the announcement of a planned joint venture with Centrus Energy (LEU) to advance HALEU fuel deconversion services at the Piketon, Ohio facility. This strategic move to secure its domestic fuel supply chain, combined with its high-profile 1.2 GW Meta partnership, has analysts reiterating price targets as high as $138.00. While the company remains pre-revenue, investors are betting on its 2026 milestones, including the DOE authorization for its first Aurora deployment in Idaho.

Robinhood Markets Inc (HOOD): $79.35 USD, +2.93% (+$2.26 USD), Financial Services/Fintech. The retail trading giant rallied on Monday following a series of aggressive ecosystem expansions announced at its “Take Flight” event. The most significant catalyst was the launch of the Robinhood Platinum Card, an invite-only premium credit card with a $695 annual fee, designed to capture the “Great Wealth Transfer” by offering 10% back on travel and direct-to-investment reward deposits. Additionally, the firm launched Robinhood Ventures Fund I (RVI), a $650M+ closed-end fund providing retail users access to private markets. These moves, combined with a 57% year-over-year surge in equity trading volume, have analysts targeting a $130.00 consensus price as the company transitions into a full-scale “Financial SuperApp.”

Intel Corp (INTC): $45.58 USD, +4.97% (+$2.16 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. Intel climbed on Monday as market sentiment shifts toward its multi-year “Great Pivot” under the disciplined leadership of CEO Lip-Bu Tan. The rally was largely driven by comments from CFO David Zinsner at a recent technology conference, where he confirmed that the critical 18A (1.8nm) process node is progressing “at or ahead of” internal yield projections. This is a major milestone for Intel Foundry, as the company had previously considered keeping 18A as an internal-only node; however, strong inbound interest for the performance-enhanced 18A-P variant from external customers has reignited hopes for a competitive foundry business that can challenge TSMC.

Innovation Beverage Group Ltd (IBG): $3.31 USD, -40.14% (-$2.22 USD), Consumer Defensive/Beverages. The stock cratered on Monday after the company filed an F-1 registration statement to offer up to 4.17 million units for gross proceeds of $15 million. This massive “best-efforts” offering is highly dilutive, considering the company only had about 1.07 million shares outstanding as of March 5. While $2.5 million of the proceeds are earmarked to fund a loan for its pending merger with BlockFuel Energy, the market reacted violently to the potential influx of new shares and warrants, wiping out nearly all the “nano-float” momentum seen last week.

enGene Holdings Inc (ENGN): $7.05 USD, -18.78% (-$1.63 USD), Healthcare/Biotechnology. The gene therapy firm plummeted on Monday following the dual-threat of a $29.8M quarterly net loss and the launch of a highly dilutive $100 million at-the-market (ATM) share program with Leerink Partners. While the company provided a clinical update on its LEGEND Phase 2 trial for bladder cancer (reporting a 63% complete response rate), the immediate focus of the market shifted to the potential for significant shareholder dilution as the company prepares its Biologics License Application (BLA) for the second half of 2026.

Guardforce AI Co Ltd (GFAI): $0.59 USD, -3.38% (-$0.021 USD), Industrials/Security & AI. The stock remains under pressure as it faces a June 10, 2026, deadline to regain Nasdaq compliance by sustaining a $1.00 share price for at least ten consecutive business days. To combat this, the Board recently authorized a $5 million share repurchase program, signaling management’s belief that the company is undervalued. While its “Smart Retail” robotics partnership in Thailand continues to expand, the stock is currently struggling to find a firm support level amidst broader micro-cap volatility.

Horizon Space Acquisition II Corp (HSPT): $9.30 USD, -2.11% (-$0.20 USD), Financials/SPAC. The blank-check company slipped on Monday as it nears its new March 18, 2026, deadline to complete its merger with SL Bio Ltd, a Taiwan-based biotech firm. While shareholders recently approved the business combination, the stock has been volatile following the redemption of over 6.7 million shares, significantly shrinking the trust account. To maintain momentum, SL Bio’s CEO provided a $50,000 deposit for a one-month extension, with the combined entity expected to list on the Nasdaq under the ticker SLBT once the deal officially closes

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.20 USD, -1.18% (-$0.050 USD), Technology/AI & Defense. BBAI edged lower on Monday, mirroring a broader “risk-off” sentiment in speculative AI names. While the stock is down from its 52-week highs, it recently found some support following its Q4 2025 earnings report. Although revenue of $27.3 million missed estimates, investors were encouraged by a massive 90% debt reduction and a record liquidity position of $462 million. The company is currently pivoting from a custom-consulting model toward a scalable “Agentic AI” platform, bolstered by the integration of Ask Sage, which provides secure generative AI workflows for the U.S. Space Force and other high-security agencies.

Palantir (PLTR): $156.60 USD, +0.11% (Pre-market). PLTR is showing resilience in early trading, clawing back yesterday’s minor loss. While the broader software sector remains volatile due to “Agentic AI” disruption fears, Palantir is benefiting from its “Sovereign AI” narrative and a reported $1B DHS contract expansion. Support is holding firmly at $147.34, with resistance looming at $158.00.

Cisco Systems Inc (CSCO): $76.21 USD, -3.09% (-$2.43 USD), Tech/Networking. Leading the Dow’s tech decline, Cisco is struggling with “margin anxiety” as the cost of AI-ready components (like memory chiplets) spikes. Investors are cautious about management’s ability to maintain high margins while pivoting legacy networking into the AI era.

Klaviyo Inc (KVYO): $20.50 USD, -2.29% (-$0.48 USD), Tech/Software. Klaviyo slipped on Monday despite a major announcement of a deepened Shopify integration to automate global multi-market catalogs. While the stock has faced a “valuation reset” over the last 90 days, it is currently supported by its first-ever $500 million share repurchase program, which includes an immediate $100 million accelerated buyback. Investors are weighing strong 2026 revenue guidance ($1.5B+) and a new Google AI partnership against recent large-scale insider selling, including a $3.7M exit by Co-CEO Andrew Bialecki earlier this month.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 6, 2026)

Samsara Inc. (IOT): $35.36 USD, +19.54% (+$5.78 USD), Technology/Software. The “Connected Operations” leader soared after reporting a decisive “beat and raise” in its Q4 earnings. Investors are rewarding Samsara for its ability to maintain high growth and expand margins even as industrial customers tighten budgets, proving the essential nature of its AI-driven fleet management tools.

Marvell Technology Inc. (MRVL): $89.57 USD, +18.35% (+$13.89 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. Marvell emerged as the primary semiconductor winner after its earnings call highlighted an explosion in demand for AI data center infrastructure. While other chipmakers saw cooling demand, Marvell’s emphatic long-term guidance for its custom silicon and electro-optics business drove a wave of analyst upgrades.

Braiin Ltd. (BRAI): $28.23 USD, +16.41% (+$3.98 USD), Technology/AI. This industrial AI specialist saw a double-digit jump as it gained momentum following new contract wins for its autonomous monitoring systems. The stock is benefiting from a rotation into “Physical AI” companies that provide tangible efficiency gains for global supply chains.

Trio Petroleum Corp. (TPET): $1.90 USD, +21.43% (+$0.34 USD), Energy/Exploration. As WTI Crude prices spiked toward $93/barrel amid escalating conflict in the Middle East, small-cap exploration firms like Trio saw heavy speculative buying. The stock acted as a high-beta vehicle for traders betting on a sustained energy rally driven by supply disruptions near the Strait of Hormuz.

Day One Biopharmaceuticals Inc (DAWN): $21.20 USD, +65.88% (+$8.42 USD), Healthcare/Biotech. Shares of the Brisbane-based biotech skyrocketed after French pharmaceutical giant Servier announced a definitive agreement to acquire the company for $2.5 billion in cash. The $21.50 per share offer price represented a nearly 68% premium, driving DAWN to its highest levels in years as investors cheered the exit for the pediatric oncology specialist.

Peraso Inc (PRSO): $2.04 USD, +151.54% (+$1.23 USD), Technology/Defense. Shares of the mmWave wireless specialist exploded after the company announced its technology was selected for a next-generation military drone identification system. Peraso is seeing massive speculative volume as investors hunt for small-cap plays linked to the increasing electronic warfare needs in the Middle East.

ServiceNow Inc (NOW): $124.34 USD, +3.29% (+$3.96 USD), Technology/Software. Shares of the enterprise software leader climbed as investors reacted positively to the company’s recent launch of its “Autonomous Workforce” solution. By integrating new AI agent capabilities that can resolve IT and HR requests with 99% faster turnaround, ServiceNow is successfully positioning itself as a “must-have” productivity tool for corporations looking to offset rising labor and energy costs. The stock was a rare gainer in the S&P 500 on Friday, outperforming its cloud peers during a broader market slump.

UiPath Inc (PATH): $11.86 USD, +2.68% (+$0.31 USD), Technology/Software. Shares of the automation leader finished higher as the market continues to digest the company’s expansion into “Agentic AI.” Following its recent healthcare-focused AI launch at the ViVE 2026 conference, investors are increasingly viewing PATH as a specialized winner that can automate complex, regulation-heavy workflows that generic AI cannot handle. The stock has gained nearly 8% over the last four trading sessions as it turns toward full-year profitability.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Calidi Biotherapeutics Inc (CLDI): $0.36 USD, −52.73% (−$0.40 USD), Healthcare/Biotech. Shares of the clinical-stage biotech plummeted to a new 52-week low after the company priced a highly dilutive $5.2 million underwritten public offering. The units were priced at just $0.50, a massive discount to Thursday’s closing price, as the company scrambles for working capital to fund its ongoing clinical trials. Existing shareholders were hit hard by the significant dilution and the inclusion of common warrants in the deal.

eLong Power Holding Ltd (ELPW): $0.045 USD, −43.89% (−$0.035 USD), Industrials/Batteries. Shares of the Beijing-based battery tech provider plummeted after the company announced a massive 1-for-80 reverse stock split intended to regain compliance with Nasdaq’s minimum bid price rule. The market reacted negatively to the move, which follows a string of highly dilutive public offerings in February that have already decimated shareholder value. The reverse split is set to take effect on March 12, reducing the total outstanding shares from 63 million to roughly 790,000.

AXT Inc (AXTI): $32.37 USD, −16.56% (−$6.42 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. Shares of the compound semiconductor substrate manufacturer fell sharply as the market reassessed the “AI infrastructure” rally. While AXTI had reached 52-week highs earlier in the week on excitement over indium phosphide demand for AI data centers, Friday’s sell-off was triggered by renewed concerns over Chinese export permits. Investors are growing wary that geopolitical friction could lead to further delays in the company’s ability to ship critical materials from its Chinese manufacturing hubs, leading to a swift retreat from its recent peak.

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $177.88 USD, −2.98% (−$5.46 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. Shares of the AI giant slipped as investors reacted to reports of proposed new U.S. export controls that could require special licensing for high-end AI chips (like the GB300 series) sold globally, not just to China. The news sparked fears of increased “red tape” and potential delivery delays for major international hyperscale customers, leading to a pull-back despite NVIDIA’s dominant market position.

Amazon.com Inc (AMZN): $213.12 USD, −2.66% (−$5.82 USD), Technology/E-commerce. Shares of the retail and cloud giant slumped following a series of operational setbacks. The company confirmed a “botched software code deployment” that took down its shopping site and app for over six hours on Thursday, impacting millions in potential sales. Additionally, investor sentiment was dampened by reports that drone strikes linked to the Middle East conflict damaged AWS data centers in the UAE and Bahrain earlier in the week, raising concerns about the physical security of its global cloud infrastructure.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 5, 2026)

The Trade Desk Inc (TTD): $29.79 USD, +18.36% (+$4.62 USD), Technology/Advertising. Shares of the ad-tech giant skyrocketed after the company announced a breakthrough in its post-cookie tracking integration and received a rare “double upgrade” from analysts. TTD is currently benefiting from a rotation back into high-margin software as investors look for “pure play” AI advertising winners.

Sable Offshore Corp (SOC): $13.85 USD, +37.26% (+$3.76 USD), Energy. This small-cap energy player led the sector after reporting a significant discovery in its newest deepwater well. While broader energy markets were volatile due to Iran-related price spikes, SOC’s individual success story allowed it to decouple from the pack and post near-40% gains in a single session.

Tango Therapeutics Inc (TNGX): $16.83 USD, +36.28% (+$4.48 USD), Biotech. TNGX trended heavily following the release of positive early-stage data for its new cancer treatment candidate. Biotech remains a “high growth” focal point in 2026, and Tango’s data was viewed by the market as a significant de-risking event for its entire pipeline.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $332.77 USD, +4.80% (+$15.24 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. Broadcom shares surged after the company smashed Q1 2026 earnings expectations, driven by a massive 106% year-over-year explosion in AI revenue. Investors rallied behind CEO Hock Tan’s “spectacular” guidance, which revealed a clear line of sight to over $100 billion in AI chip revenue by 2027. This performance, paired with a new $10 billion share buyback program, has solidified Broadcom’s position as the dominant force in AI networking and custom accelerators.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.93 CAD, +19.23% (+$0.15 CAD), Healthcare/AI Technology. AIDX shares surged on the Toronto Stock Exchange yesterday following the major announcement of a multi-million dollar U.S. Health Information Exchange (HIE) contract. This competitive win signals a critical expansion into the U.S. market and reinforces the company’s shift toward high-margin, recurring data infrastructure revenue. The rally, which saw the stock touch a daily high of $1.05, is further fueled by “AI-driven pipeline momentum” and news of the company’s upcoming participation in several major investor conferences (TD Cowen and Scotiabank) throughout March.

Credo Technology Group (CRDO): $114.74 USD, +11.90% (+$12.20 USD), Semiconductors. CRDO staged a powerful rebound as investors shrugged off margin concerns to focus on a 202% year-over-year revenue explosion. With a Zacks #1 Rank and surging demand for AI data center connectivity, the stock is currently a “high-conviction” momentum favorite.

Expedia Group Inc (EXPE): $251.54 USD, +13.69% (+$30.29 USD), Consumer Discretionary. EXPE surged on Thursday as investors rushed to buy shares before the March 5th record date to qualify for its newly boosted $0.48 quarterly dividend (a 20% increase). Beyond the dividend play, the stock is benefiting from a “relief rally” in travel, fueled by a new partnership with PredictHQ for AI-driven demand forecasting and a shift in sentiment after OpenAI reportedly scaled back direct travel checkout plans, reducing competitive fears for traditional online travel agencies.

Tempus AI Inc (TEM): $53.05 USD, +3.43% (+$1.76 USD), Healthcare/AI. TEM shares gained ground on Thursday as the market reacted to a major multi-year strategic collaboration with Merck aimed at accelerating AI-driven precision medicine. This deal, announced earlier this week, grants Merck access to Tempus’ massive multimodal datasets and GPU infrastructure to discover new biomarkers. Despite recent insider selling, investors are increasingly bullish on Tempus’ 2026 revenue guidance of $1.59 billion, viewing the Merck partnership as a key validation of its data-licensing business model.

MicroAlgo Inc (MLGO): $3.96 USD, +13.14% (+$0.46 USD), Technology/Quantum AI. MLGO shares surged on Thursday as momentum traders returned to the speculative “AI-Quantum” favorite. The rally follows continued retail interest in the company’s recent advancements in quantum-based game theory algorithms and a technical bounce from its 52-week lows. While the stock remains highly volatile, Thursday’s double-digit gain was fueled by a “stock-specific” momentum trigger, outperforming its close peers in the specialized algorithm sector.

Crowdstrike Holdings Inc (CRWD): $426.16 USD, +4.53% (+$18.48 USD), Cybersecurity/AI. CRWD shares rallied on Thursday as the market fully “digested” its blockbuster Q4 2026 earnings beat. The company achieved a historic milestone, becoming the first pure-play cyber firm to surpass $5 billion in Annual Recurring Revenue (ARR). Investors are cheering a 47% explosion in net-new ARR ($331M) and a fresh strategic partnership with Schwarz Digits to provide sovereign AI cloud security in Europe. Despite conservative Q1 guidance, the narrative has shifted to CrowdStrike’s role as “mission-critical” infrastructure in the AI era.

Xponential Fitness Inc (XPOF): $5.89 USD, +6.51% (+$0.36 USD), Consumer Discretionary. XPOF shares climbed on Thursday as investors reacted to an activist push by Voss Capital, which disclosed an 18.2% stake and called for a formal strategic review, including a potential sale of the company. This move is providing a much-needed tailwind after the stock was “obliterated” last week following a massive Q4 earnings miss and weak 2026 revenue guidance. The market is currently weighing Voss Capital’s argument that the Club Pilates brand alone is worth more than the company’s entire current enterprise value.

CoreWeave Inc (CRWV): $74.82 USD, -5.89% (-$4.68 USD), Technology/AI Cloud. CRWV continued its downward slide on Thursday as the market reacts to a “perfect storm” of financial and legal headwinds following its Q4 earnings report. Despite a massive $66.8 billion revenue backlog, shares were pressured by a wider-than-expected $452 million net loss and aggressive $30–$35 billion capex guidance for 2026 that has raised serious margin alarms. Adding to the volatility, multiple law firms issued alerts this week regarding a March 13th lead plaintiff deadline for a securities class action lawsuit alleging the company concealed data center construction delays and overstated its ability to scale infrastructure for key clients like OpenAI.

Photronics Inc (PLAB): $35.14 USD, -7.50% (-$2.85 USD), Technology/Semiconductors. PLAB shares tumbled on Thursday as the market focused on a “seasonal slowdown” despite a strong Q1 earnings beat. While high-end IC revenue hit a second consecutive record ($71M) due to AI demand, the stock was pressured by Q2 guidance projecting a sequential decline in EPS ($0.49–$0.55) due to the Chinese New Year impact. Adding to the technical sell-off, recent filings revealed that Meros Investment Management and Citigroup trimmed their positions to lock in gains after the stock’s massive 67% run over the past year.

Medicus Pharma Ltd (MDCX): $0.68 USD, -50.88% (-$0.70 USD), Biotech. MDCX shares collapsed on Thursday as the market reacted with a “sell the news” frenzy following the release of topline Phase 2 data for its skin cancer treatment, SkinJect (D-MNA). While the company reported a seemingly positive 73% clinical clearance rate in its high-dose cohort, the 40% histological clearance (complete tumor removal confirmed by biopsy) fell short of investor expectations for a “slam dunk” replacement for surgery. The 50% drop reflects deep skepticism over whether these results are strong enough to secure the lucrative FDA partnership management has been promising for 2026.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $12.18 USD, -2.87% (-$0.36 USD), Energy/Nuclear. SMR shares drifted lower on Thursday as the company faced a “legal overhang” from multiple securities fraud class action lawsuits filed this week. The litigation alleges that NuScale misrepresented the capabilities of its partner, ENTRA1, leading to a massive $532 million net loss in the most recent quarter. While the stock is getting a small “retail boost” from being named a top nuclear pick for March by The Motley Fool, heavy insider selling and a price target cut to $14 by Goldman Sachs have kept investors cautious despite the long-term AI-driven power demand.

Fluor Corp (FLR): $46.18 USD, -4.09% (-$1.97 USD), Industrials. FLR shares pulled back on Thursday as the market continued to digest a messy Q4 report featuring a $1.57 billion net loss and a 10% drop in total backlog ($25.5B). Despite cashing in $1.35 billion from its NuScale (SMR) stake and launching a $1.4 billion buyback program, investors remain cautious over weak Q4 awards ($1.1B vs. $2.3B last year) and persistent cost growth in legacy infrastructure projects.

 
 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 4, 2026)

Leverage Shares 2X Long GEMI Daily ETF (GEMG): $2.55 USD, +66.88% (+$1.02 USD), Leveraged Equity. GEMG is delivering exactly what it was designed for today—doubling the daily performance of its underlying asset, Gemini Space Station Inc (GEMI). As GEMI shares surged nearly 34% on a major technical rebound and pre-earnings speculation, this 2x leveraged ETF amplified those gains into a massive 67% “explosion.” While today is a win for the bulls, traders should note GEMG’s high expense ratio (0.75%) and the inherent decay risks of holding leveraged single-stock ETFs for more than a single trading session, especially given the underlying’s 125% implied volatility.

Texxon Holding Ltd (NPT): $14.90 USD, +44.94% (+$4.62 USD), Consumer Cyclical. Shares of the supply chain management firm are “exploding” today as they trade near 52-week highs ($15.50). The rally is being driven by a surge in “Strong Buy” technical signals and heavy trading volume exceeding 1 million shares. Investors are increasingly optimistic about the company’s expansion into major chemical and plastic projects in East China, specifically the milestones reached for its 600,000-ton Polystyrene project.

Babcock & Wilcox Enterprises Inc (BW): $11.80 USD, +45.68% (+$3.70 USD), Industrials. Babcock & Wilcox shares rocketed today after the company announced a massive $2.4 billion “full notice to proceed” for a 1.2 GW power project supporting Applied Digital’s AI data center campuses. This major contract win coincided with a swing to profitability in their Q4 results, signaling a fundamental shift toward high-growth AI infrastructure.

Moderna Inc (MRNA): $57.80 USD, +15.99% (+$7.97 USD), Healthcare. Moderna shares surged to a fresh 52-week high today as investors celebrated a global patent settlement with Arbutus Biopharma and Genevant Sciences. By agreeing to a $950 million upfront payment, Moderna has effectively removed a massive “litigation overhang” that had clouded the company’s financial future for years. Wall Street is viewing the deal as a major win, as it eliminates the risk of future royalties on Moderna’s entire infectious disease portfolio, including its next-gen COVID and flu combination shots.

Evolus Inc (EOLS): $5.59 USD, +35.35% (+$1.46 USD), Healthcare. Evolus shares are currently undergoing their largest intraday rally in nearly five years. The “explosion” follows a major fourth-quarter earnings report where the company posted its first quarterly net income since early 2021. Investors are cheering the “Botox-rival’s” ability to achieve profitability while maintaining double-digit revenue growth ($90.3 million for Q4). The stock is also being propelled by a fresh 2026 outlook that projects sustainable profitability and a new $30 million revolving credit facility, which de-risks the company’s expansion plans for its Evolysse and Estyme filler lines.

Bitfarms Ltd (BITF): $2.24 USD, +12.56% (+$0.25 USD), Financial Services/Technology. Bitfarms shares jumped today as the broader cryptocurrency mining sector rallied following a call for the passage of stalled crypto legislation. The stock’s double-digit gain is also being supported by positive investor sentiment regarding the company’s strategic pivot toward high-performance computing (HPC) and AI data center infrastructure, which is expected to diversify its revenue streams beyond Bitcoin mining.

SSR Mining Inc (SSRM): $45.32 CAD, +14.65% (+$5.79 CAD), Materials. SSR Mining shares hit a fresh 52-week high today after the company announced a binding agreement to sell its 80% stake in the Çöpler gold mine in Turkey to Cengiz Holding for $1.5 billion in cash. This strategic divestment follows a long period of operational suspension at the site due to a 2024 landslide. Investors are cheering the massive cash infusion, which significantly de-risks the company’s balance sheet and allows it to refocus its portfolio on its core assets in the Americas.

Gemini Space Station Inc (GEMI): $8.69 USD, +33.69% (+$2.19 USD), Financial Services/Technology. Gemini (the crypto exchange founded by the Winklevoss twins) is seeing a massive price reversal today. While I previously noted excitement over “orbital modules,” I should clarify—the “Space Station” in the name is part of their corporate branding; the surge is actually tied to their crypto and prediction markets platform. Traders are aggressively buying the dip following a brutal February that saw a 12% drop due to high-level executive departures. Today’s “explosion” is being fueled by heavy speculative volume ahead of their Q4 earnings report on March 19, as investors bet on a turnaround in their unit economics and international expansion.

CoreWeave Inc (CRWV): $79.50 USD, +7.75% (+$5.72 USD), Technology. CoreWeave shares surged today after the specialized cloud provider announced a multi-year strategic partnership with Perplexity to power its AI inference workloads. The move is being hailed as a major validation of CoreWeave’s “neocloud” infrastructure, helping the stock reclaim ground after a volatile February. With a massive $66.8 billion revenue backlog reported in their recent year-end results, investors are piling back in, viewing the recent dip as a buying opportunity for the fastest-growing cloud provider in history.

Nebius Group NV (NBIS): $97.78 USD, +12.65% (+$10.98 USD), Technology. Nebius Group shares charged higher today after the AI infrastructure specialist secured local government approval for its first “Gigawatt-scale” AI factory camp in Independence, Missouri. The deal, which includes a Chapter 100 industrial development incentive, marks a massive step in Nebius’s goal to reach $7–$9 billion in annualized revenue by the end of 2026. Institutional investors are viewing the 1.2 GW capacity expansion as a major competitive win against other “neocloud” providers, as it significantly scales their ability to offer GPU-as-a-Service at a massive global level.

IREN Ltd (IREN): $43.84 USD, +12.84% (+$4.99 USD), Technology/Energy. IREN shares are surging today as the market rewards the company’s massive leap in AI scale. The “explosion” follows an announcement that IREN has secured over 50,000 NVIDIA B300 GPUs, expanding its total fleet to 150,000 units. This aggressive procurement strategy is expected to drive AI Cloud annualized revenue to over $3.7 billion by the end of 2026. While the company previously faced pressure after a February earnings miss, investors are now focusing on its successful pivot from Bitcoin mining to becoming one of the world’s largest vertically integrated AI cloud platforms.

Intel Corp (INTC): $45.58 USD, +5.75% (+$2.48 USD), Technology. Intel shares jumped today as the market responded to highly optimistic commentary from CFO David Zinsner at a major technology conference. Zinsner revealed that demand for Intel’s processors is rising “meaningfully” in 2026, leading customers to seek multi-year supply agreements to get ahead of tight supply. More importantly, he confirmed that yields for the critical 18A manufacturing node are progressing ahead of schedule, allowing Intel to market the technology to external foundry customers much earlier than expected. This shift—from internal-only use to a viable third-party foundry service—is being viewed as a “watershed moment” for the company’s turnaround strategy under CEO Lip-Bu Tan.

Asustek Computer Inc (2357): 518.00 TWD, +3.60% (+18.00 TWD), Technology. ASUS shares gained ground today as the company continues to gain traction in the “AI PC” supercycle. The move is fueled by strong pre-order data for its new 2026 AI-powered ExpertBook and Zenbook lineups, which are expected to drive a significant margin recovery in the second half of the year. Investors are also positioning themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings call (scheduled for March 10, 2026), where analysts expect an update on ASUS’s strategic partnership with NVIDIA to bring digital humans and advanced AI inference to the consumer market.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM): $149.82 USD, -1.32% (-$2.01 USD), Energy. Interestingly, XOM is slightly down despite the peace deal rejection. This is likely due to “news fatigue”—the market already priced in a long conflict earlier this week. However, it remains a primary “haven” as the Strait of Hormuz remains effectively closed to tanker traffic.

GitLab Inc (GTLB): $25.05 USD, -6.18% (-$1.65 USD), Technology. GitLab shares are under significant pressure today despite the company reporting a “beat and raise” for its fourth quarter. While Q4 revenue of $260.4 million and EPS of $0.30 both topped analyst estimates, the stock is reeling from a disappointing fiscal 2027 outlook. Management’s guidance suggests revenue growth will decelerate to 15%–17% (down from 26% last year), as the company enters what analysts are calling a “rebuilding year.” Furthermore, mounting fears of AI disruption from competitors like OpenAI and Anthropic’s new coding tools have led to a wave of price target cuts, overshadowing a newly authorized $400 million share buyback program.

SoundHound AI Inc (SOUN): $8.16 USD, -4.11% (-$0.35 USD), Technology. SoundHound is trading lower today, March 5, 2026, as the market continues to digest its recent Q4 2025 earnings report. While the company posted a massive 99% year-over-year revenue increase for the full year and hit a record $55.1 million in Q4 revenue, investors are showing some “post-earnings exhaustion.”

DigitalOcean Holdings Inc (DOCN): $52.26 USD, -5.67% (-$3.14 USD), Technology. DigitalOcean is pulling back today as investors react to significant insider selling and a “sell-the-news” event following its late-February earnings peak. SEC filings show that both the Chief Accounting Officer (Cherie Barrett) and the CFO (Matt Steinfort) offloaded a combined total of over $2.3 million in stock this week.

While the company recently posted a strong Q4 beat—driven by its “Agentic Inference Cloud” and a 150% surge in AI-related revenue—the market is currently fixated on the near-term margin pressure caused by their massive data center expansion (31 megawatts of new capacity). The stock is also caught in the broader software sell-off triggered by the Iran peace deal rejection, as traders rotate out of high-multiple cloud names and into domestic infrastructure and defense.

Hycroft Mining Holding Corporation (HYMC): $47.66 USD, -1.74% (-$0.84 USD), Materials. Hycroft is seeing a minor “consolidation” today after an incredible 950% run over the last year. Despite the 1% dip, the stock remains a central focus for gold bulls following its massive March 4 Resource Upgrade, which revealed a 55% jump in gold and silver resources. With spot gold currently trading near $5,140/oz—well above the company’s $3,100/oz model assumption—investors are viewing this pullback as a minor breather. The company is now debt-free and sitting on over $194 million in cash, positioning it as a “fortress” developer in the safe-haven sector.

Trio Petroleum Corp (TPET): $0.85 USD, -56.46% (-$1.10 USD), Energy. Trio Petroleum is experiencing a massive “implosion” today, erasing nearly all the gains from its 400% rally earlier this week. The collapse is being driven by a “double whammy” of aggressive equity dilution and a cooling of the speculative “war premium.”

On March 4, the company filed an Amendment to its At-The-Market (ATM) offering, increasing the amount of common shares it can sell to $13.38 million. Investors are fleeing as the company aggressively taps this program to raise cash, directly diluting existing shareholders. Furthermore, after surging 169% on Monday due to U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the stock is now seeing a violent “reversion to the mean” as the immediate geopolitical shock wears off and traders realize the company’s underlying cash burn remains high.

 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 3, 2026)

Battalion Oil Corp (BATL): $27.68 USD, +134.58% (+$15.88 USD), Energy. Battalion Oil shares more than doubled during intraday trading today, hitting a fresh 52-week high of $29.70 as momentum traders pounced on a new $15 million private placement deal. While the offering was priced at a significant discount of $5.50 per share, investors interpreted the capital infusion as a critical lifeline for the company’s Delaware Basin operations. Combined with a global surge in oil prices due to escalating Middle East supply risks, the news triggered an explosive short squeeze. With the stock now having more than tripled since last Friday, BATL has emerged as the primary high-beta play for traders seeking domestic energy exposure.

Empire Petroleum Corp (EP): $3.77 USD, +6.20% (+$0.22 USD), Energy. Empire Petroleum shares gained over 6% today, closing at $3.77 as the stock continues to build momentum from its late-February pivot point. The rally comes as the company recently modified and extended its registered rights offering to March 18, increasing potential proceeds to $10 million to bolster its balance sheet. Despite facing liquidity challenges earlier in the year, the stock has now risen three days in a row, with today’s intraday high reaching $4.00. Investors are increasingly viewing EP as a high-upside domestic play as the company secures the capital needed to develop its producing assets across the Permian and Bakken regions.

Mobix Labs Inc (MOBX): $1.12 USD, +532.77% (+$0.94 USD), Technology. Mobix Labs witnessed an explosive rally today, with shares surging over 500% to close at $1.12 on massive relative volume. The move follows a period of extreme penny-stock volatility and recent updates regarding their airborne sensing and drone-defense technology. As the stock regained critical price levels to address Nasdaq compliance concerns, it became the top percentage gainer across all major exchanges today, attracting intense interest from day traders looking to capitalize on its low-float dynamics and military-adjacent tech applications.

Ziff Davis Inc (ZD): $41.48 USD, +48.09% (+$13.47 USD), Technology. Ziff Davis shares skyrocketed today after the digital media and internet services giant reported Q4 earnings that shattered analyst expectations. The stock saw its highest single-day gain in years as investors cheered a surprise expansion in its advertising technology margins and a robust outlook for 2026. With the company successfully pivoting toward AI-integrated content platforms, ZD has become a standout performer in a tech sector that otherwise struggled with broader market volatility today.

Tidewater Inc (TDW): $87.67 USD, +9.77% (+$7.80 USD), Energy. Tidewater shares surged today as the offshore energy service provider capitalized on the spike in crude oil prices. As the Middle East conflict drives Brent and WTI higher, Tidewater’s fleet of offshore support vessels has seen increased utilization and higher day rates. The stock hit the upper end of its 52-week range today, reflecting institutional confidence in the prolonged “supercycle” for offshore oil and gas services.

Gartner Inc (IT): $164.78 USD, +3.36% (+$5.35 USD), Technology. Gartner shares surged today as investors responded enthusiastically to a fourth-quarter earnings beat, with EPS of $3.94 comfortably topping the $3.50 consensus estimate. Despite a broader decline in the S&P 500, the stock was bolstered by news of significant insider buying, notably a $9.94 million share purchase by Director Stephen Pagliuca. The company’s resilience in its research and advisory segments, combined with management’s focus on AI-powered tools like AskGartner, has helped the stock stabilize and outperform its tech peers following a challenging start to the year.

Plug Power Inc (PLUG): $2.23 USD, +23.20% (+$0.42 USD), Energy. Plug Power shares surged over 23% today as investors cheered a “triple-beat” quarter that signaled a potential turning point for the embattled hydrogen firm. The company reported Q4 revenue of $225.2 million—beating the $217 million estimate—while narrowing its per-share loss to just $0.06. Most significantly, Plug achieved a positive gross margin of 2.4% for the quarter, a massive leap from the deeply negative territory of the previous year. With new CEO Jose Luis Crespo officially taking the helm this week and a roadmap to positive EBITDA by late 2026, the stock saw a massive short-covering rally that defied the broader market sell-off.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $147.22 USD, +1.41% (+$2.05 USD), Technology. Palantir shares extended their winning streak to five days, gaining 1.4% on Tuesday to close at $147.22. While the broader Nasdaq suffered a 1% decline due to escalating Middle East tensions, Palantir emerged as a primary “safe haven” for AI and defense capital. The stock was buoyed by a major price target hike from Rosenblatt Securities, which raised its target from $150 to $200, citing the “regrettable necessity” of Palantir’s software in modern warfare. Analysts increasingly view the company’s AI platforms, Foundry and Gotham, as superior alternatives to standard large language models (LLMs) for mission-critical military operations. Despite a mid-day dip to $138 as investors weighed broader war risks, the stock staged a robust recovery, bringing its cumulative five-day gain to 14% and its market capitalization to approximately $353 billion

AeroVironment Inc (AVAV): $228.30 USD, +9.59% (+$19.98 USD), Aerospace & Defense. AeroVironment shares rebounded sharply today, recovering nearly 10% after a volatile “pop-and-drop” session on Monday. The stock surged as the company clarified that it is in active negotiations with the U.S. Space Force to transition its $1.4 billion SCAR program to a firm-fixed-price structure, rather than losing the contract entirely. Investor sentiment was further bolstered by the announcement of a $30 million expansion of its manufacturing hub in Albuquerque, New Mexico, which is expected to create over 450 jobs and double its production capacity for space and directed-energy systems. Despite a recent analyst downgrade from Raymond James, the stock remains a primary beneficiary of the global “drone dominance” cycle and the heightened demand for domestic defense infrastructure.

Select Medical Holdings Corp (SEM): $16.26 USD, +8.40% (+$1.26 USD), Healthcare. Select Medical shares jumped over 8% today to close at $16.26 as the market adjusted to the news of a $3.9 billion take-private agreement. A consortium led by Executive Chairman Robert A. Ortenzio and Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe (WCAS) has agreed to acquire all outstanding shares for $16.50 per share in cash. While several law firms announced investigations into the fairness of the deal—noting it sits below the stock’s 52-week high of $18.61—traders aggressively bid the price up toward the acquisition target. The deal, which includes no financing condition and a $133 million reverse termination fee, is expected to close by mid-2026, marking the end of SEM’s tenure on the NYSE.

Rocket Doctor AI Inc (AIDR): $0.64 CAD, +4.92% (+$0.03 CAD), Healthcare. Rocket Doctor AI shares gained nearly 5% today following the announcement of a major new contract with a top-tier New York State insurer. The deal expands the company’s “in-network” reach by an additional 2.4 million members, bringing its total covered lives in the U.S. to over 15 million across key markets like California and New York. Investors responded positively to this rapid expansion of the payer network, which allows eligible members to access Rocket Doctor’s AI-powered digital health platform and board-certified physician network with in-network benefits. This news follows a period of strong momentum for the Vancouver-based firm, which recently upsized its private placement to $5.2 million to fund its aggressive growth in the tele-health space.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Micron Technology Inc (MU): $379.68 USD, -7.99% (-$32.99 USD), Semiconductors. Micron shares tumbled nearly 8% today as a “perfect storm” of geopolitical and energy fears hit the semiconductor sector. The sell-off was triggered by a sharp decline in the South Korean KOSPI index, where memory giants Samsung and SK Hynix fell on fears of a global energy price shock. Investors are concerned that escalating conflict in the Middle East could disrupt liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplies, significantly raising operating costs for energy-intensive fabrication plants. Despite the drop, fundamental outlooks remain bullish ahead of Micron’s March 18 earnings report, with UBS analysts suggesting annual EPS could approach $85—nearly double the current consensus—due to the sold-out status of its High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) through 2026.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $313.84 USD, -1.56% (-$4.98 USD), Semiconductors. Broadcom shares dipped nearly 2% today as investors braced for the company’s fiscal first-quarter earnings report, scheduled for release after the bell on Wednesday, March 4. Despite the slight decline, the stock showed resilience compared to peers like Micron (-8%), recovering from an intraday low of $307.40. Analysts are largely focused on Broadcom’s $73 billion AI backlog and its ability to maintain gross margins as lower-margin custom AI accelerators (XPUs) become a larger portion of the revenue mix. While HSBC lowered its price target to $450 today citing a “valuation reset” for AI firms, the firm maintained its Buy rating, anticipating that Broadcom will beat its $19.1 billion revenue guidance

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $392.43 USD, -2.70% (-$10.89 USD), Consumer Discretionary. Tesla shares fell nearly 3% today as a “risk-off” mood swept through high-growth stocks following the escalation of the U.S.-Iran conflict. Despite mixed February registration data from Europe—showing a massive 55% surge in France but an 18% decline in Denmark—the stock was unable to overcome the broader market’s energy-related jitters. Investor sentiment was also weighed down by a polarizing decision to tighten the eligibility for Full Self-Driving (FSD) transfers, requiring owners to take delivery of new vehicles by March 31 rather than just placing an order. While domestic oil price spikes structurally favor EV adoption, near-term concerns over supply chain disruptions and Tesla’s “dizzying” valuation relative to traditional automakers have kept the stock under pressure, now trading at its lowest level since November 2025

Intel Corp (INTC): $43.10 USD, -5.27% (-$2.40 USD), Technology. Intel shares tumbled over 5% today, closing at $43.10 as the semiconductor giant was hit by a “perfect storm” of geopolitical anxiety and executive leadership changes. The decline was fueled by the sudden escalation of the U.S.-Iran conflict and the shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz, which sparked fears of a global energy shock and rising manufacturing costs for power-intensive chip fabrication. Compounding the macroeconomic pressure, the company announced that Board Chair Frank D. Yeary will retire in May, with Dr. Craig H. Barratt set to succeed him. Despite recently launching its next-generation AI PC processors, Intel continues to underperform peers like AMD and Nvidia as investors weigh its heavy capital expenditure requirements against a backdrop of potential global supply chain disruptions and worsening inflation

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (March 2, 2026)

Lockheed Martin Corp (LMT): $676.48 USD, +3.34% (+$21.85 USD), Aerospace & Defense. Lockheed Martin shares hit a fresh all-time record of $692.00 during intraday trading today as the market reacts to the dramatic escalation of the U.S.-Iran conflict. Following over-the-weekend strikes by U.S. and Israeli forces, the stock has become the primary “safe haven” for institutional capital. With a year-to-date return now exceeding 36%, LMT is significantly outperforming the broader S&P 500 as the world enters a period of intensive rearmament. The company’s role as the manufacturer of the F-35 Lightning II and PAC-3 missile interceptors—both currently active in the Middle East theater—has cemented its status as a “mission-critical” asset for Western defense.

Astrana Health Inc (ASTH): $26.32 USD, +29.46% (+$5.99 USD), Healthcare / Medical Management. Astrana shares skyrocketed today after the company delivered a massive Q4 earnings beat, reporting adjusted EPS of $0.54 against analyst expectations of just $0.15. The surge is fueled by a 43% year-over-year revenue jump to $950.5 million, driven by the rapid expansion of its “value-based care” model, where the company takes on full financial risk for patient outcomes. Investors are particularly bullish on management’s 2026 outlook, which forecasts revenue climbing as high as $4.1 billion. The rally was further supported by news that the integration of Prospect Health is ahead of schedule and the Board’s decision to double its share repurchase authorization to $100 million.

Evolution Metals & Technologies Corp (EMAT): $10.16 USD, +27.48% (+$2.19 USD), Materials / Critical Minerals. EMAT shares surged today as the company continues to gain momentum following its January NASDAQ debut. The rally is primarily driven by its unique position as a vertically integrated alternative to China’s dominance in the rare earth magnet market. Recent interest has spiked following an investor webinar where management detailed the scale-up of its U.S.-based industrial campus and its 18-year track record of supplying magnets to tier-1 OEMs like Ford and Hyundai. Technical “buy” signals and a shift in analyst sentiment from “sell” to “buy” candidates have further accelerated the price action, with volume significantly outpacing the three-month average as investors bet on EMAT’s ability to capture the burgeoning demand for EV battery materials and defense-grade magnets.

Strategy Inc (MSTR): $137.65 USD, +6.29% (+$8.15 USD), Financial Services / Digital Assets. Strategy Inc (formerly MicroStrategy) is seeing a relief rally today as Bitcoin stabilizes around the $66,000 level following a period of extreme volatility. The stock is currently trading at a roughly 8% discount to its Net Asset Value (NAV), making it an attractive entry point for investors who view it as “Bitcoin on steroids.” The surge is further supported by the company’s proactive capital management; management recently increased the dividend rate for its STRC preferred stock to 11.50% for March 2026, signaling confidence in its “Digital Credit” strategy. Despite reporting a massive non-cash accounting loss in Q4 due to Bitcoin’s price drop, the company’s core software revenue actually exceeded expectations, growing to $123 million, providing a stable foundation for its aggressive treasury operations.

Ubiquiti Inc (UI): $798.47 USD, +4.10% (+$31.48 USD), Technology / Networking Equipment. Ubiquiti shares are pushing toward all-time highs today, fueled by continued momentum from its “blowout” Q2 2026 earnings report on February 6. The stock’s performance reflects a massive 35.8% year-over-year revenue surge to a record $814.9 million, driven by aggressive expansion in its Enterprise Technology segment. Investors are also cheering the company’s operational efficiency; gross margins expanded to 45.9% (up from 41.2%) despite global trade tensions and higher tariff costs. With a quarterly dividend of $0.80 per share recently paid on February 23, UI is currently acting as a high-growth momentum favorite in the wireless infrastructure sector.

Ocular Therapeutix Inc (OCUL): $10.98 USD, +22.82% (+$2.04 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Ocular shares surged to a fresh multi-month high today following a high-profile investor webcast on March 2, where management broke down “landmark” Phase 3 data for their wet AMD drug, AXPAXLI. The stock’s momentum is driven by the SOL-1 superiority trial results, which showed that AXPAXLI was significantly more effective than the current standard of care, Eylea, at the 36-week mark ($p=0.0006$). Most impressively, 65.9% of patients maintained their vision through an entire year with just a single dose, a result CEO Pravin Dugel described as “best-in-disease” durability. With a massive $737 million cash reserve providing a runway into 2028 and plans to fast-track an FDA filing via the 505(b)(2) pathway, investors are betting OCUL could disrupt the multibillion-dollar retinal disease market.

HEALWELL AI Inc (AIDX): $0.74 CAD, +7.25% (+$0.05 CAD), Healthcare / Artificial Intelligence. HEALWELL shares are recovering today as the company transitions into a “pure-play” AI SaaS provider following its massive acquisition of Orion Health in 2025. The stock is currently trading near the bottom of its 52-week range ($0.58–$1.81) but is gaining momentum ahead of its Q4 2025 earnings report scheduled for March 26, 2026. The recent 7% uptick is driven by news of the company’s first major AI implementation in the Middle East, a governmental contract in Saudi Arabia to deploy its SMART Search and SMART Identify tools. With a 645% revenue surge reported in previous quarters and two consecutive quarters of positive Adjusted EBITDA, investors are eyeing the current $0.74 level as a potential bottom for the AI-driven healthcare specialist. As Iranian retaliatory strikes—including drone attacks reported near the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh and Saudi energy facilities—intensify, the demand for HEALWELL’s population intelligence and crisis-management AI is being viewed as a vital infrastructure tool.

AXT Inc (AXTI): $46.32 USD, +22.22% (+$8.42 USD), Technology / Semiconductor Materials. AXT Inc shares surged to a fresh multi-year high today as the company successfully navigates the “AI substrate” boom and easing geopolitical hurdles. The stock gapped up significantly following reports that the company has secured critical export permits from China’s Ministry of Commerce for its indium phosphide (InP) wafers, which are vital for the 800G and 1.6T optical transceivers used in AI data centers. This breakthrough follows a period of regulatory uncertainty that had previously restricted shipments. With a reinforced cash position of $128.4 million from a recent capital raise and plans to double its InP manufacturing capacity in the second half of 2026, AXT is being repriced as a primary “picks and shovels” play for the global AI infrastructure build-out.

Applied Optoelectronics Inc (AAOI): $102.51 USD, +21.70% (+$18.28 USD), Technology / Optical Networking. Applied Optoelectronics reached a new 8-year high today after crushing Q4 expectations and issuing “monster” guidance for 2026. The surge is driven by a massive ramp-up in demand for 800G optical transceivers—the hardware required to link AI chips in data centers. With hyperscale customers like Amazon and Oracle accelerating their AI infrastructure spend, the company projected that 2026 revenue will exceed $1 billion, a figure that would more than double its record 2025 results. CEO Thompson Lin noted that demand for these next-generation modules is expected to outpace the company’s production capacity well into 2027, prompting a major expansion of its Houston, Texas, manufacturing facility.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $145.13 USD, +5.78% (+$7.94 USD), Technology / Software & AI. Palantir shares surged today, staging a sharp rebound as the company cements its role as the “AI Operating System” for Western defense. The rally is ignited by a combination of geopolitical tailwinds and massive contract wins, most notably a fresh five-year, $1 billion blanket purchase agreement with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This deal allows all DHS agencies to streamline their AI and data analytics rollout using Palantir’s Gotham and Foundry platforms. Investor confidence is further bolstered by the company’s recent Q4 “double beat,” which saw U.S. commercial revenue skyrocket 137% year-over-year. Despite a 20% year-to-date pullback in early 2026, analysts from Bank of America and UBS have recently reiterated “Buy” ratings, with price targets as high as $255, viewing the current price as a compelling entry point for the “clear winner” of the industrial AI revolution.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.10 USD, +3.54% (+$0.14 USD), Technology / Defense & Intelligence AI. As Iranian strikes target critical infrastructure in the UAE, BigBear.ai is emerging as a critical “resilience” play. The company’s recent expansion in Abu Dhabi and its focus on autonomous systems place it at the center of the UAE’s urgent need for predictive maintenance and real-time threat detection. While the physical strikes create regional volatility, they are simultaneously accelerating the adoption of BBAI’s AI-driven logistics and security platforms. Investors are betting that the UAE government will fast-track the deployment of BBAI’s CargoSeer and ConductorOS to safeguard supply chains and coordinate emergency response efforts as the “missile rain” impacts the region’s shipping and energy hubs.

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $182.37 USD, +2.93% (+$5.18 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. NVIDIA shares are trading higher today as the market digests last week’s “monster” Q4 earnings report and a fresh upgrade from Morgan Stanley, which named NVDA its top chip pick for 2026. The company recently reported staggering fiscal year 2026 revenue of $215.9 billion (up 65%), driven by the massive ramp-up of its Blackwell Ultra (GB300) architecture. Despite a slow start to the calendar year, the stock is regaining momentum as hyperscalers like Meta and Microsoft commit to $700 billion in total AI capex for 2026. CEO Jensen Huang confirmed that “agentic AI” has reached an inflection point, with the upcoming Vera Rubin platform already sampling to key customers ahead of its late-2026 launch.

Devon Energy Corp (DVN): $44.95 USD, +3.26% (+$1.42 USD), Energy / Oil & Gas Exploration. Devon Energy shares are outperforming the broader market today as investors react to the massive $58 billion merger with Coterra Energy, a deal that officially positions the combined company as a “Shale Titan” with a production capacity of 1.6 million barrels of oil equivalent per day. The rally is further supported by the current geopolitical “risk premium” on crude oil, which has helped DVN climb over 20% in the last 30 days. Despite reporting a year-over-year dip in Q4 EPS to $0.82 (matching estimates), the market is looking forward to the $1 billion in projected synergies from the Coterra tie-up and a business optimization plan designed to boost free cash flow by the end of 2026.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $54.21 USD, +2.13% (+$1.13 USD), Energy / Oil & Gas Exploration. Occidental Petroleum shares are climbing today as the energy sector reacts to a spike in crude prices fueled by the U.S.-Israel military strikes against Iran. Beyond the geopolitical “risk premium,” OXY is benefiting from a strong Q4 2025 earnings report and an 8% dividend hike announced in February. The stock is being closely watched as it nears a critical technical breakout, having gapped higher following its earnings beat where production in the Permian Basin exceeded the high end of management’s guidance. Investors are also focused on the company’s massive deleveraging success; following the $9.7 billion sale of OxyChem to Berkshire Hathaway in late 2025, OXY has successfully reduced its principal debt to below its $15 billion target, significantly lowering interest expenses for 2026.

Trump Media & Technology Group Corp (DJT): $11.08 USD, +3.45% (+$0.37 USD), Technology / Social Media & Energy. DJT shares ticked higher today as the company continues its aggressive transition from a pure social media play into a diversified technology and energy conglomerate. The stock’s stability in 2026 is anchored by its late-2025 acquisition of nuclear-fusion specialist TAE Technologies, a $6 billion deal that has reframed the company as a “future energy” contender. While Truth Social remains its core platform for President Trump’s direct communication, investors are increasingly focused on the company’s upcoming distribution of shareholder cryptocurrency tokens in partnership with Crypto.com and its role in the “AI-energy nexus.” With nearly $2.2 billion in market cap, DJT is acting as a primary barometer for political sentiment as the administration navigates the ongoing Greenland framework and Middle East tensions.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Aardvark Therapeutics Inc (AARD): $5.47 USD, -56.20% (-$7.02 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Aardvark shares were decimated today, losing more than half their value in a single session. The crash follows the company’s Friday after-hours announcement that it is voluntarily pausing its Phase 3 HERO trial for its lead drug candidate, ARD-101. The trial was evaluating the drug as a treatment for hyperphagia (insatiable hunger) in patients with Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS). This “black swan” event has triggered a wave of analyst downgrades and effectively erased nearly all the gains made since the company’s 2025 IPO.

Ensysce Biosciences Inc (ENSC): $0.60 USD, -3.72% (-$0.023 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Ensysce shares are under slight pressure today as the market digests the company’s recent announcement (Feb 25, 2026) that it has initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives. While such reviews can often lead to a buyout or lucrative licensing deals, they also signal to investors that the company may be seeking a “lifeline” to fund its ongoing Phase 3 clinical trials. Despite the small dip today, the stock remains a high-conviction play for those tracking the AI-driven safer opioid market, particularly as regional instability in the Middle East drives an urgent need for tamper-proof pain management for both military and civilian trauma.

Decent Holding Inc (DXST): $0.098 USD, -10.47% (-$0.012 USD), Industrials / Environmental Services. Decent Holding shares hit a fresh 52-week low today as the market reacts to the “red zone” financial health rating and the looming threat of an impending reverse stock split. Despite reporting a massive 147% revenue surge in its most recent mid-year results, the stock has plummeted over 90% since January. Investor sentiment has turned sharply bearish following the February 23 extraordinary general meeting, where shareholders approved broad authority for a major share consolidation to maintain Nasdaq compliance. With a market cap now hovering just above $4 million and warrants set to expire on March 12, the company is struggling to convince investors that its transition into high-margin microbial products can offset its current cash-transfer and regulatory risks in China.

Rivian Automotive Inc (RIVN): $15.01 USD, -2.09% (-$0.32 USD), Technology / Electric Vehicles. Rivian shares are cooling today as the market balances a Q4 earnings beat against a broader slowdown in the EV sector. While the company reported an adjusted loss of $0.66 per share (beating the $0.68 consensus), total revenue fell 25.8% year-over-year. All eyes are now on March 12, 2026, when Rivian will take the stage at the SXSW festival in Austin to launch the “Launch Edition” of the R2 SUV. This vehicle is seen as the make-or-break catalyst for the company; management expects it to drive a 53% jump in total deliveries for 2026, targeting a record volume of up to 67,000 units.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 27, 2026)

Applied Optoelectronics Inc (AAOI): $84.23 USD, +56.88% (+$30.54 USD), Technology / Optical Networking. Applied Optoelectronics reached an 8-year high today after crushing Q4 expectations and issuing “monster” guidance for 2026. The surge is driven by a massive ramp-up in demand for 800G optical transceivers—the hardware required to link AI chips in data centers. With hyperscale customers like Amazon and Oracle accelerating their AI infrastructure spend, CEO Thompson Lin noted that demand for these modules is expected to outpace the company’s production capacity well into 2027.

Paramount Skydance Corp (PSKY): $13.51 USD, +20.84% (+$2.33 USD), Communication Services / Media & Entertainment. Paramount Skydance shares skyrocketed today after officially announcing a definitive $110 billion merger agreement to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD). The deal, which values WBD at $31.00 per share, effectively ends a high-stakes bidding war after Netflix withdrew its rival offer, citing Paramount’s bid as “superior.” By uniting iconic franchises like Harry Potter, Game of Thrones, and DC Universe with Mission: Impossible and Top Gun, the new “Mega-Media Titan” aims to achieve over $6 billion in cost synergies. CEO David Ellison noted that this merger is a “clear pivot” toward a next-generation entertainment model, combining world-class storytelling with a consolidated technology backbone to compete directly with global tech giants.

Dell Technologies (DELL): $142.31 USD, +21.20% (+$24.91 USD), Technology / AI Infrastructure. Dell shares posted their biggest one-day gain in nearly two years following a decisive FQ4 beat and a bullish outlook for the “AI era.” The company revealed that its AI-optimized server revenue is projected to more than double to $50 billion in fiscal 2027. Investors were further energized by a 20% dividend increase and a new $10 billion share repurchase program, signaling management’s confidence that Dell is becoming a dominant “picks and shovels” play for global AI deployment.

Polestar Automotive Holding UK PLC (PSNY): $23.28 USD, +20.43% (+$3.95 USD), Consumer Discretionary / Electric Vehicles. Polestar is charging higher today following a massive “operational reset” that has caught the attention of institutional investors. The stock’s 20% surge follows the company’s announcement that it has successfully secured $950 million in new external funding from a syndicate of global banks, effectively clearing its “liquidity runway” through 2026. With the Polestar 3 and Polestar 4 luxury SUVs now entering full-scale production and global delivery, the market is re-pricing PSNY as a legitimate “high-margin” competitor to Tesla and Porsche. Investors are particularly bullish on Polestar’s newly lowered “break-even” target, which management now expects to hit by the end of next year thanks to a 30% reduction in overhead costs.

Block Inc (XYZ): $92.40 USD, +16.85% (+$13.32 USD), Fintech / Digital Payments. The Jack Dorsey-led fintech giant surged after announcing a radical “AI-first” restructuring plan that will cut its global workforce by 40% (approx. 4,000 jobs) to drive extreme efficiency. While Q4 results were solid, the real catalyst was the FY2026 guidance, which projected a gross profit of $12.2 billion. By leveraging AI to automate internal operations and deeply integrating Bitcoin infrastructure into its ecosystem, Block is successfully pivoting from a traditional payment processor to a high-margin fintech powerhouse.

GraniteShares 2x Long DELL Daily ETF (DLLL): $29.41 USD, +42.77% (+$8.81 USD), Financials / Leveraged ETF. As a single-stock leveraged vehicle, DLLL delivered a staggering 43% gain today, functioning as a high-octane bet on Dell Technologies’ AI-driven surge. Because this ETF is designed to provide 2x the daily return of DELL, it captured the full force of the parent company’s “inflection point” earnings. Traders used DLLL to amplify their exposure to Dell’s $50 billion AI server pipeline, turning a strong tech rally into a vertical moonshot. However, investors are reminded that this is a “daily reset” instrument meant for short-term tactical strikes rather than long-term holding.

Edesa Biotech Inc (EDSA): $2.20 USD, +41.94% (+$0.65 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Edesa Biotech is surging following the release of additional positive data from its Phase 3 study of paridiprubart. The study, which included a broad population of 278 patients, demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in mortality for those suffering from Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Investors are piling in after the company reported a 27% relative reduction in the risk of death and announced the filing of new provisional patents for treating sepsis and pneumonia. With an oral presentation scheduled for the ATS 2026 conference in May, the market is re-evaluating EDSA as a high-potential leader in host-directed therapeutics for critical care.

Leverage Shares 2X Long XYZ Daily ETF (XYZG): $12.89 USD, +34.27% (+$3.29 USD), Financials / Leveraged ETF. Designed to provide double the daily return of Block Inc. (XYZ), the XYZG ETF exploded today as traders capitalized on Block’s massive AI-driven restructuring news. While the underlying stock (XYZ) gained a significant 16.8%, this leveraged vehicle amplified those returns to over 34% in a single session. Investors are utilizing XYZG to play the “operating leverage” narrative, betting that Block’s headcount reduction and $12.2 billion gross profit target for 2026 will lead to a sustained re-rating of the company. As a 2x daily reset instrument, XYZG remains a high-reward tool for active traders looking to maximize the momentum of the fintech sector’s pivot toward AI.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $53.08 USD, +3.21% (+$1.65 USD), Energy / Oil & Gas. While a 3% gain seems small compared to the tech moonshots, OXY is the “Safe Haven” winner of the Iran conflict. As the Strait of Hormuz faces potential closure, Occidental’s massive US-based Permian Basin assets have become the most valuable energy source in the world. Despite a technical $4.5B accounting writedown from Berkshire Hathaway today, Warren Buffett’s firm reiterated that OXY’s pivot into Carbon Capture (Direct Air Capture) makes it a multi-decade cornerstone of their portfolio.

Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM): $152.50 USD, +2.66% (+$3.95 USD), Energy / Integrated Oil & Gas. Exxon Mobil shares surged to finish February at near-record highs as the sudden military escalation in Iran sent shockwaves through the global energy market. With Operation Epic Fury threatening the Strait of Hormuz—a chokepoint for 20% of the world’s oil—XOM is being utilized by institutional investors as the ultimate geopolitical hedge. While crude futures flirt with $100 per barrel, Exxon’s massive domestic production and industry-leading $52 billion operating cash flow provide a “fortress balance sheet” for investors fleeing volatile tech sectors. This rally also follows January’s blockbuster earnings report, where XOM posted its highest production in 40 years, further solidifying its dominant position as the primary beneficiary of 2026’s “War Premium” environment.

Suncor Energy Inc (SU): $77.05 CAD, +1.50% (+$1.14 CAD), Energy / Integrated Oil & Sands. Suncor shares edged higher on the Toronto Stock Exchange today as the Canadian energy giant continues to benefit from its “oil sands pure-play” status amid the deepening crisis in Iran. While the 1.5% gain is modest compared to high-beta tech, Suncor is being heavily accumulated by “Value” investors who see the Operation Epic Fury escalation as a long-term floor for crude prices. With Suncor’s massive production assets safely located in the Alberta oil sands—far removed from Middle Eastern geopolitical chokepoints—the stock is serving as a premium low-risk hedge. Investors are also rewarding Suncor for its “2026 Efficiency Drive,” which has successfully lowered its per-barrel breakeven cost to industry-leading levels, ensuring that any sustained spike in oil toward $100 USD flows directly to the bottom line as record-breaking free cash flow.

Neurogene Inc (NGNE): $23.49 USD, +19.36% (+$3.81 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Neurogene is climbing today as investor confidence builds around its high-potential gene therapy pipeline, specifically targeting Rett syndrome and CLN5 Batten disease. The stock’s nearly 20% jump follows recent updates on its proprietary EXACT technology platform, which is designed to deliver therapeutic levels of gene expression while avoiding the toxicities typically associated with traditional gene therapy. With the market anticipating more clinical data from its Phase 1/2 trials in 2026, NGNE is being viewed as a “de-risked” biotech play with significant upside if its unique “turning down the volume” approach to gene expression continues to prove safe in human patients.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.74 CAD, +7.25% (+$0.05 CAD), Healthcare / AI & Data Science. Healwell AI closed the month of February on a strong note, gaining over 7% as it continues to execute its 2026 global expansion strategy. The rally follows a major announcement on February 26 regarding the company’s first contracted AI deployment in the Middle East, marking a significant milestone in its international scalability. By integrating its “SMART” suite (Identify, Search, and Summary) into a major governmental health system, Healwell is proving that its preventative care platform has global applicability. With management set to present at three major investor conferences in March (TD Cowen, Scotiabank, and ROTH), investors are positioning themselves ahead of what many analysts expect to be a high-growth year for the WELL Health-backed pure-play AI diagnostics firm.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $177.19 USD, -4.16% (-$7.70 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. In a rare decoupling from the rest of the AI sector, NVIDIA shares slid over 4% today, dragging the Nasdaq down as investors grapple with a “sell the news” reaction following a record-breaking Q4 earnings report. Despite posting a staggering $68.1 billion in revenue (up 73% year-over-year) and a massive $30 billion strategic investment in OpenAI, the stock failed to maintain its momentum. The decline is being fueled by a “triple threat” of anxiety: a hotter-than-expected US Inflation (PPI) report, rising memory chip prices that threaten gross margins, and the escalating conflict in Iran, which has sparked fears of a broader “risk-off” move into safer assets. While Dell and AAOI soared on infrastructure demand, NVIDIA’s sheer size made it the primary target for profit-taking as traders hedge against the weekend’s geopolitical uncertainty.

Microsoft Corp (MSFT): $392.74 USD, -2.24% (-$8.98 USD), Technology / Software. Shares retreated amid a broader “risk-off” sell-off sparked by hot inflation data and the military escalation in Iran. Despite the dip, Microsoft’s strategic position strengthened after partner OpenAI secured a definitive deal to deploy AI models onto U.S. Department of War classified networks—a move bolstered by the administration’s blacklisting of rival Anthropic. While geopolitical tension and high CAPEX weigh on the short-term price, MSFT is currently approaching a “historic” technical support level at its 200-week moving average, a zone that has historically signaled major buying opportunities.

Apple Inc (AAPL): $264.18 USD, -3.21% (-$8.77 USD), Consumer Electronics. Shares fell as the “Operation Epic Fury” escalation triggered a broad rotation out of high-valuation consumer tech. Despite the dip, Apple’s 2026 narrative remains centered on Autonomous Systems and AI-integrated robotics for industrial use. While Middle East instability raises concerns over luxury spending and Gulf supply chains, analysts view this as a technical “cooling off” period. Investors are now eyeing the $260 support level as a tactical re-entry point for the next AI-device upgrade cycle.

Ambarella Inc (AMBA): $60.34 USD, -14.89% (-$10.56 USD), Semiconductors / Edge AI. Ambarella suffered a brutal sell-off today, marking it as one of the session’s heaviest laggards. Despite posting a narrow earnings beat, the stock plummeted after management issued “discouraging” forward guidance that fell short of analyst expectations. The market is increasingly concerned that larger rivals are eroding Ambarella’s market share in the Edge AI and automotive vision sectors. With the Iran conflict driving a flight to quality, investors aggressively exited high-multiple “growth” chips like AMBA in favor of established infrastructure plays. The stock has now broken below key technical support, signaling a potential shift in investor sentiment toward the company’s 2026 recovery timeline.

Apollo Global Management (APO): $104.60 USD, -8.57% (-$9.80 USD), Financial Services. Apollo shares tumbled as part of a wider rout in private-equity and private-credit stocks. The sharp decline was fueled by a “double blow”: first, an Apollo-managed fund (MFIC) cut its dividend and marked down asset values due to loan portfolio challenges; second, the collapse of a U.K. mortgage lender (Market Financial Solutions) reignited fears of systemic “cockroaches” in the private-credit sector. Amid the “Operation Epic Fury” escalation and hotter-than-expected inflation data, investors aggressively de-risked, punishing APO despite its record $938 billion in AUM and strong Q4 earnings reported earlier this month.

Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS): $859.57 USD, -7.47% (-$69.43 USD), Financials / Investment Banking. Goldman Sachs shares suffered their steepest one-day drop in over a year as a “perfect storm” of credit anxiety and geopolitical risk hit Wall Street’s premier investment bank. While Goldman’s asset management arm recently reassured investors about its low redemption rates, the stock was hammered by media reports that major lenders, including GS, face potential losses from the collapse of U.K. mortgage provider Market Financial Solutions. This news, combined with the “Operation Epic Fury” escalation in Iran and hotter-than-expected inflation data, triggered a massive “de-risking” event across the financial sector. Despite the $69 per-share decline, the firm remains fundamentally strong with record equity trading revenue; however, the market is currently punishing high-multiple banks as fears of a private-credit “contagion” ripple through the economy.

Bank of America Corp (BAC): $49.83 USD, -4.72% (-$2.47 USD), Financials. Bank of America suffered its largest single-day percentage drop since April 2025 as the financial sector buckled under a “triple threat” of macro pressures. The decline was fueled by the “Operation Epic Fury” escalation in Iran, hotter-than-expected inflation data, and a deepening rout in private-equity stocks that sparked “contagion” fears across diversified lenders. Adding to the pressure, reports surfaced on February 27 regarding $250 million in potential regulatory penalties from the CFPB and rising concerns over 2026 expense growth. While the bank remains well-capitalized, the combination of geopolitical risk and credit-market anxiety drove investors to dump economically sensitive stocks, pushing BAC to its lowest closing level since October 2025.

 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 26, 2026)

Rackspace Technology Inc (RXT): $2.28 USD, +68.89% (+$0.93 USD), Technology / IT Infrastructure. Rackspace is skyrocketing today following a massive “double catalyst”: a major AI partnership with Palantir and a Q4 earnings report that signaled a long-awaited turnaround. The stock’s 69% vertical climb was sparked by management’s declaration of a “clear inflection point,” as the company expects its Private Cloud segment to return to year-over-year growth in 2026 for the first time in years. Investors are piling into the “AI-as-a-Service” narrative, as Rackspace begins hosting Palantir’s Foundry and AIP platforms in its sovereign data centers, effectively pivoting the company from a legacy host to a critical AI infrastructure provider.

Megan Holdings Ltd (MGN): $1.80 USD, +46.34% (+$0.57 USD), Industrials / Smart Aquaculture. Professional Overview: Megan Holdings is a Malaysia-based company specializing in the development and “Smart” maintenance of aquaculture farms, specifically focusing on shrimp farming. The stock is seeing a massive surge today following the pricing of an $8.3 million follow-on public offering. While the offering was priced at a steep discount of $0.40 per share, the market is reacting to the company’s aggressive pivot into its proprietary Smart Farming System. This system utilizes AI and IoT sensors to monitor water quality and automate shrimp feeding, aimed at solving the high mortality rates common in traditional Malaysian aquaculture.

Curanex Pharmaceuticals Inc (CURX): $0.46 USD, +45.77% (+$0.14 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Curanex is rallying today following a pivotal operational update regarding its lead botanical drug candidate, Phyto-N. The company announced the successful completion of a GMP-compliant pilot-scale batch, a critical manufacturing milestone required to support upcoming GLP toxicology and pharmacokinetic studies. This de-risks the technical path toward their planned Investigational New Drug (IND) submission for Ulcerative Colitis, which remains on track for Q4 2026.

Avalon GloboCare Corp (ALBT): $1.09 USD, +114.48% (+$0.58 USD), Healthcare / AI Technology. Professional Overview: Avalon GloboCare is a clinical-stage biotechnology and diagnostic company that has recently pivoted toward Generative AI to enhance medical marketing and patient engagement. The stock is experiencing a massive breakout today after the company was accepted into the AMD AI Developer Program. This partnership provides Avalon’s subsidiary, Avalon Quantum AI, with direct access to AMD’s high-performance Instinct accelerators and EPYC processors, which are essential for scaling their automated diagnostic and video commentary platforms.

Antelope Enterprise Holdings Ltd (AEHL): $1.08 USD, +108.90% (+$0.56 USD), Industrials / Digital Assets. Antelope is exploding today after unveiling its “Genius Plan,” a high-conviction pivot into Bitcoin (BTC) asset management. The company announced a $1 million initial BTC purchase and a unique “Genius Harvester” mechanism that automatically sells small portions of its holdings every time BTC rises 1% to lock in incremental profits. Investors are cheering the “Genius Recycler” component, which pledges to use 50% of those realized gains to fund a stock buyback program, directly linking crypto performance to shareholder value.

Butterfly Network Inc (BFLY): $4.67 USD, +50.65% (+$1.57 USD), Healthcare / Medical Devices. Butterfly Network is skyrocketing today after delivering a massive fourth-quarter earnings beat and aggressive 2026 guidance. The company reported revenue of $31.5 million (up 40.6% Y/Y), crushing analyst estimates of $26.25 million, and narrowed its net loss significantly. Investors are particularly bullish on management’s new 2026 revenue target of $117M–$121M, which sits well above the Street’s previous expectations. The surge is being fueled by a “short squeeze” atmosphere and a 146% spike in call option volume as the market bets on the commercial scaling of their “Ultrasound-on-Chip” technology and the recent Compass AI launch.

Sezzle Inc (SEZL): $84.70 USD, +35.26% (+$22.08 USD), Financial Services / Fintech. Sezzle is surging today after reporting a “blowout” fourth quarter and significantly raising its full-year 2026 profit outlook. The fintech platform posted Q4 adjusted EPS of $1.21, easily beating the $0.96 analyst consensus, driven by a 32% jump in revenue to $129.9 million. Beyond the earnings beat, investors are cheering a major guidance hike: management now expects 2026 adjusted EPS of $4.70 (up from the previous $4.35), signaling high confidence in its transition from a simple “Buy Now, Pay Later” provider to a full financial ecosystem. With record subscriber growth hitting 918,000 monthly active users and a new $100 million share repurchase program authorized, the stock is seeing massive momentum as it pushes toward new multi-year highs.

GigaCloud Technology Inc (GCT): $46.98 USD, +33.05% (+$11.67 USD), Technology / B2B Ecommerce. GigaCloud is soaring today after reporting record-breaking fourth-quarter results that shattered Wall Street expectations. The company posted an adjusted EPS of $1.16, crushing the consensus estimate of $0.66, and revenue of $362.7 million, well ahead of the $332 million projected. Investors are piling in as GigaCloud successfully pivots to a high-margin third-party (3P) marketplace model, which now accounts for 54% of its total marketplace volume. With a massive 68% revenue surge in Europe and an optimistic Q1 2026 revenue guide of $330M–$355M (versus the $290M expected), the stock is seeing its best single-day performance in over a year, further bolstered by a zero-debt balance sheet and an active $111 million share buyback program.

LeMaitre Vascular Inc (LMAT): $113.69 USD, +24.41% (+$22.31 USD), Healthcare / Medical Devices. LeMaitre is surging today after hitting a “triple beat” in its Q4 report, posting a 39% jump in EPS ($0.68) and a 16% rise in revenue ($64.5M). The breakout is fueled by explosive growth in its graft and valvulotome lines, alongside a massive 25% dividend hike and a new $100M share buyback program. With 2026 guidance now well above analyst expectations, the stock has officially cleared its previous $105 resistance to hit a new all-time high.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.69 CAD, +11.29% (+$0.07 CAD), Healthcare / AI Technology.  Healwell is trending upward today as it secures its first major international implementation in the Middle East, targeting a large-scale governmental health system. The contract utilizes the company’s DARWEN™ AI platform to scan millions of patient records for early cancer detection and chronic disease identification, potentially saving lives by catching illnesses months before symptoms appear. Major institutions like Scotiabank and RBC maintain a “Sector Outperform” rating, forecasting over 50% annual revenue growth as the company transitions into a global pure-play AI enterprise.

IonQ Inc (IONQ): $40.88 USD, +21.70% (+$7.29 USD), Technology / Quantum Computing. IonQ is charging higher today after reporting a massive “triple beat” in its Q4 2025 earnings, headlined by a staggering 429% year-over-year revenue surge. The company officially became the first pure-play quantum firm to cross $100M in annual revenue, while simultaneously announcing a massive $151B contract ceiling with the Missile Defense Agency. Investors are aggressively buying the dip as the company guides for 2026 revenue to nearly double again, fueled by its new “Tempo” systems and the strategic acquisition of SkyWater to scale manufacturing.

Rigetti Computing Inc (RGTI): $18.63 USD, +5.67% (+$1.00 USD), Technology / Quantum Computing. Rigetti is climbing today as investors position themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings report scheduled for March 4. Sentiment is being bolstered by the recent $8.4 million commercial order from India’s C-DAC for a 108-qubit system and the upcoming launch of its modular Cepheus-1-108Q hardware. While the stock has faced recent volatility, institutional interest remains high, with Vanguard recently increasing its stake to nearly 10%. Analysts are closely watching to see if Rigetti’s unique “chiplet-based” architecture can help it close the gap with competitors like IonQ.

D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS): $20.14 USD, +2.49% (+$0.49 USD), Technology / Quantum Computing. D-Wave is moving higher today after reporting a massive 179% increase in annual revenue and a surge in bookings that has investors looking past a narrow Q4 earnings miss. The company entered 2026 with record liquidity of $884 million and announced that January bookings alone exceeded $30 million—more than its entire revenue for 2025. Positive sentiment is being driven by a new $20 million system sale to Florida Atlantic University and the completion of its Quantum Circuits (QCI) acquisition, which positions D-Wave as a dual-threat leader in both annealing and gate-model quantum computing.

LiveWire Group Inc (LVWR): $2.34 USD, +47.17% (+$0.75 USD), Automobiles / Electric Vehicles. LiveWire is revving up today, rebounding sharply from recent lows as investors digest the long-term implications of its aggressive 2026 cash-burn reduction plan. Despite a volatile start to the year, the Harley-Davidson spin-off is attracting “dip buyers” following its February 10th earnings update, which showed a 61% surge in electric motorcycle unit sales and a significant 44% improvement in free cash flow. Market sentiment is shifting as the company prepares for the Spring 2026 launch of its new S4 Honcho line and moves closer to its goal of reducing annual operating losses by another $10M–$15M this year.

Chime Financial Inc (CHYM): $23.97 USD, +13.55% (+$2.86 USD), Financial Services / Fintech. Chime is surging today after releasing a powerful Q4 2025 earnings report and issuing 2026 guidance that projects the company’s first-ever full year of GAAP profitability. Revenue for 2025 hit $2.2 billion (up 31% YoY), while the company’s new “MyPay” credit product scaled to a $400 million revenue run rate. Investors are rewarding the “path to profit” narrative as management targets $2.63B–$2.67B in revenue for 2026, supported by massive efficiency gains from their proprietary ChimeCore technology stack.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.15 USD, +5.60% (+$0.22 USD), Technology / Artificial Intelligence. BigBear.ai is gaining momentum today as traders position themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings report, scheduled for March 2, 2026. Sentiment is shifting toward “cautious optimism” following the recent $250 million acquisition of Ask Sage, a generative AI platform with a massive footprint in the defense and intelligence sectors. Investors are betting that the integration of Ask Sage’s high-margin recurring revenue will help offset recent federal funding disruptions and pave the way for a significantly narrower loss in the 2026 fiscal year.

Defiance Daily Target 2X Long IONQ ETF (IONX): $14.79 USD, +42.35% (+$4.40 USD), Technology / Quantum Computing (Leveraged ETF). The Simple Story: IONX is a high-risk “accelerator” fund designed to double the daily moves of IonQ. It is exploding today because its underlying stock, IonQ, just reported a massive 202% revenue increase and a $151 billion contract ceiling with the Missile Defense Agency. While the fund is seeing huge gains today, it also announced a 1-for-3 reverse stock split effective March 18, 2026, to help stabilize its share price after a volatile start to the year.

XCF Global Inc (SAFX): $0.25 USD, +44.08% (+$0.077 USD), Energy / Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). XCF Global is seeing a massive surge today as it executes a strategic turnaround following a 98% decline from its 2025 highs. The company, which is the only pure-play public SAF firm in the U.S., is rallying on news surrounding a definitive three-party merger with DevvStream and Southern Energy Renewables. This deal aims to integrate SAF production with biomass feedstock and carbon-credit monetization. Investors are also reacting to the company’s engagement with Bank of America to structure debt financing for its “New Rise Reno 2” facility, which is expected to significantly scale production capacity by late 2026.

Trilogy Metals Inc (TMQ): $6.12 CAD, +2.34% (+$0.14 CAD), Materials / Critical Minerals. Trilogy is ticking upward today as it enters a pivotal 2026 execution phase for its Ambler Mining District project in Alaska. Sentiment is being driven by the recently approved $35 million USD budget for its Ambler Metals joint venture, which is specifically earmarked for initiating the mine permitting process for the high-grade Arctic Project. The stock is also benefiting from a strategic “macro tailwind” following a $17.8 million investment from the U.S. federal government aimed at securing domestic supplies of copper, zinc, and cobalt.

Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce (CM): $141.84 CAD, +2.89% (+$3.99 CAD), Financial Services / Banking. CIBC is hitting new heights today after delivering a “blockbuster” Q1 2026 earnings report that crushed analyst expectations across the board. The bank reported a 47% surge in reported net income to $3.1 billion, driven by record revenues in every single business unit. Investors are particularly impressed by the Capital Markets segment, which saw a 42% year-over-year profit jump, and a resilient 25% growth in the Canadian Personal and Business Banking division. With a return on equity (ROE) of 17.4%—well above its 15% medium-term target—and 10 consecutive quarters of positive operating leverage, CIBC is currently the standout performer among Canada’s “Big Six.”

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $184.89 USD, -5.46% (-$10.67 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. NVIDIA is sliding today as investors engage in “sell the news” profit-taking following a massive Q4 earnings report on February 25, 2026. Despite reporting record revenue of $68.1 billion (up 73% year-over-year) and guiding for $78 billion next quarter, the stock is under pressure as the market rotates from chipmakers into software stocks. CEO Jensen Huang sparked this rotation by suggesting that software companies are currently “oversold” and will be the next major beneficiaries of the “Agentic AI” era, prompting a temporary shift in capital away from hardware leaders like NVIDIA.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD): $203.68 USD, -3.41% (-$7.18 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. AMD is pulling back today alongside the broader semiconductor sector as investors digest the implications of a massive rotation into software and a “cooling” sentiment in AI hardware. Despite today’s dip, AMD remains one of the strongest “growth-at-a-reasonable-price” (GARP) plays of 2026. The company recently solidified its roadmap with a landmark multi-year agreement to supply 6 gigawatts of AI infrastructure to Meta, anchored by a custom MI450-based processor. Furthermore, a new strategic partnership with Nutanix—including a $150 million equity investment by AMD—aims to build an open, full-stack “Agentic AI” platform to challenge Nvidia’s closed ecosystem.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $321.70 USD, -3.19% (-$10.61 USD), Technology / Semiconductors & Infrastructure Software. Broadcom is retreating as part of a wider “cool down” across AI hardware stocks following Nvidia’s earnings. Despite the dip, the company is fundamentally stronger than ever, entering 2026 with a massive $162 billion total backlog—of which $73 billion is tied specifically to AI orders. Investors are currently weighing the explosive growth of its AI networking chips (like the new Tomahawk 6) and custom ASICs against the higher-margin but slower-moving integration of VMware.

Applied Materials Inc (AMAT): $375.72 USD, -4.87% (-$19.23 USD), Technology / Semiconductor Equipment. Applied Materials is sliding today as the broader chip sector faces a “hardware hangover” following Nvidia’s earnings. Despite the 5% drop, the company is fundamentally in its strongest position ever, recently reporting a Q1 2026 earnings beat ($2.38 EPS vs. $2.19 expected) and projecting a massive 20% growth in its semiconductor equipment business for 2026. Management has declared that the industry is at an “AI tipping point,” with leading-edge foundry and DRAM capacity currently “essentially full,” which is driving unprecedented demand for AMAT’s specialized materials engineering tools.

Jabil Inc (JBL): $271.91 USD, -2.04% (-$5.66 USD), Technology / Electronic Manufacturing Services. Jabil is taking a breather today after hitting a fresh all-time high of $281.37 earlier in the session. The stock has been on a tear, gaining over 70% in the last year, driven by a massive pivot into AI infrastructure and high-growth healthcare solutions. Despite today’s minor dip, sentiment remains overwhelmingly bullish following the company’s December earnings “double-beat” and a raised 2026 revenue outlook of $32.4 billion, fueled largely by a projected 35% surge in AI-related demand.

LB Pharmaceuticals Inc (LBRX): $24.23 USD, -3.62% (-$0.91 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. LB Pharmaceuticals is cooling off today after reaching an all-time high of $25.14 earlier this week. The minor pullback follows a massive February rally fueled by a $100 million private placement and the January 26 launch of its Phase 2 ILLUMINATE-1 trial for bipolar depression. Investors remain highly bullish on the company’s lead candidate, LB-102, a potential “first-in-class” benzamide antipsychotic in the U.S. designed to treat schizophrenia and mood disorders with significantly fewer side effects than current standard-of-care treatments.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 25, 2026)

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $195.62 USD, +1.44% (+$2.77 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. Nvidia is trading higher today after smashing fourth-quarter estimates across the board yesterday evening. The company reported record revenue of $68.1 billion (up 73% Y/Y) and guided next-quarter revenue to an astonishing $78 billion. CEO Jensen Huang’s declaration that “the agentic AI inflection point has arrived” has effectively silenced bubble fears for now, though the stock is facing some technical resistance as it nears its $212 all-time high.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $134.19 USD, +4.15% (+$5.35 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. Palantir shares are surging today, finding strong support as investors view Nvidia’s record earnings as a direct confirmation of the massive, ongoing demand for Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP). Despite a “SaaS-pocalypse” sell-off earlier in the year due to valuation concerns, today’s move reflects renewed confidence in Palantir’s 2026 revenue guidance, which forecasts 61% year-over-year growth fueled by a 115% explosion in U.S. commercial revenue.

Axon Enterprise Inc (AXON): $520.18 USD, +17.55%, Technology / Public Safety Software. Axon shares surged as investors reacted to strong growth in AI-powered law enforcement software and hardware demand, lifting one of the day’s biggest winners on the S&P 500.

Clear Secure Inc (YOU): $41.14 USD, +22.91% (+$7.67 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. Clear Secure shares skyrocketed today after the company reported a dominant Q4 earnings beat, posting revenue of $240.8 million and earnings per share of $0.31. Investor confidence was further bolstered by Goldman Sachs raising its price target to $61, citing robust free cash flow generation and an aggressive $250 million share buyback program.

Bank of Montreal (BMO): 202.52 CAD, +3.82% (+7.46 CAD), Financial / Banking. Bank of Montreal shares rose on Wednesday, February 26, 2026, driven by strong earnings and investor confidence in its Canadian and U.S. banking operations. While BMO itself does not hold a direct controlling stake in Occidental Petroleum, some BMO-managed funds have historically included Occidental shares within their diversified energy holdings, reflecting exposure rather than direct ownership.

ServiceNow Inc (NOW): $104.23 USD, +1.70% (+$1.74 USD), Technology / Software—Application. ServiceNow shares stabilized today, finding firm ground after a challenging start to 2026. Sentiment was bolstered by news that its partner, Moveworks, achieved FedRAMP Moderate Authorization, further embedding ServiceNow’s AI ecosystem into the US public sector. Investors are also finding confidence in CEO Bill McDermott’s recent $3 million insider purchase, which many see as a signal that the recent “SaaS-pocalypse” sell-off has reached a bottom.

Stifel Financial Corp (SF): $115.03 USD, +1.79% (+$2.02 USD), Financials / Capital Markets. Stifel Financial shares are trading higher today, February 26, 2026—a significant date for the company as its three-for-two stock split takes effect. This corporate action, distributed as a 50% stock dividend, was paired with an 11% increase in the common stock dividend (now $0.34 per share post-split). The move reflects management’s confidence in Stifel’s record annual revenues and its robust 2026 revenue target of up to $6.35 billion

Coinbase Global Inc (COIN): $183.94 USD, +21.91 (+13.52%), Financial / Cryptocurrency Exchange. Coinbase shares surged as crypto market sentiment strengthened and major product expansions — including new zero‑commission stock & ETF trading — boosted investor confidence. The rally also coincided with a sharp Bitcoin bounce, driving increased trading activity and lifting COIN as one of the top performers on the Nasdaq.

Western Digital Corp (WDC): $290.95 USD, +20.38 (+7.53%), Technology / Computer Storage. Western Digital shares jumped sharply as tech sector momentum continued on AI‑infrastructure strength, making it one of the standout gainers on the Nasdaq during Wednesday’s session. Investors have been increasingly optimistic on data storage demand driven by AI workloads and enterprise cloud spending, pushing WDC higher in a broad tech rally.

Megaport Ltd (MP1): $9.12 AUD, +12.59% (+$1.02 AUD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. Megaport shares surged on the ASX today, recovering from recent sell-side pressure as investors reconsidered the company’s aggressive growth in the US and India. The rally was supported by a broader record-breaking day for the Australian market, where the S&P/ASX 200 hit an all-time high of 9,175.30, driven by a global tech rally following Nvidia’s strong earnings results.

Braiin Ltd (BRAI): $24.75 USD, +79.35% (+$10.95 USD), Technology / Software—Application. Braiin shares skyrocketed today as the Australian AI platform company continues its explosive post-listing momentum on the Nasdaq. The surge follows the recent launch of its ProEval Enterprise platform, an AI-driven omnichannel intelligence tool, alongside growing investor appetite for its “multi-vertical” approach to AgTech, PropTech, and CXaaS. Having reported $73.4 million in trailing revenue, the stock has become a primary target for traders seeking high-beta exposure to specialized AI applications.

D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS): $19.65 USD, +5.31% (+$0.99 USD), Technology / Computer Hardware. D-Wave shares are surging this morning as investors position themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 and Full-Year 2025 earnings report, scheduled for release before the opening bell today. The rally is supported by growing commercial traction for its Advantage2 system and recent strategic moves, including the $550 million acquisition of Quantum Circuits. Analysts are looking for a significant narrowing of losses and updates on new defense-sector contracts to justify the stock’s recent 25% year-to-date climb.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD): $210.86 USD, -1.39% (-$2.98 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. AMD shares are cooling off slightly today after a spectacular 8.7% jump on Tuesday. That rally was sparked by a landmark multi-year deal with Meta Platforms, which includes a 6-gigawatt GPU supply agreement and a performance-based warrant for Meta to acquire up to 160 million AMD shares. Today’s minor pullback is largely seen as healthy consolidation following that news and a strategic announcement this morning regarding a $250 million investment and partnership with Nutanix to build an open enterprise AI platform.

Tempus AI Inc (TEM): $53.71 USD, -7.32% (-$4.24 USD), Healthcare / Health Information Services. Tempus shares are under heavy pressure today following the release of its Q4 and Full-Year 2025 results after yesterday’s close. While the company reported a massive 83% revenue jump ($367.2 million) and raised its 2026 revenue guidance to $1.59 billion, investors were spooked by widening GAAP losses ($54.2 million for the quarter) and a miss on certain profitability metrics. Despite a “beat and raise” on the top line, several analysts (including JPMorgan and Needham) trimmed their price targets this morning, citing concerns over high leverage and the timeline for a full-year profitability inflection.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $13.18 USD, -1.86% (-$0.25 USD), Industrials / Industrial Products. NuScale shares are trading slightly lower today, February 26, 2026, as the market anticipates the company’s Q4 and Full Year 2025 earnings report, scheduled for release after the closing bell at 5:00 p.m. ET. While optimism remains high regarding its role in powering AI data centers, investors are currently cautious due to a recent flurry of shareholder class-action lawsuits and the planned divestment of majority owner Fluor Corp. Analysts are looking for updates on the ENTRA1 partnership and any revised 2026 revenue guidance to offset the year’s -7% YTD decline.

Crispr Therapeutics AG (CRSP): $55.20 USD, -2.77% (-$1.57 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. CRISPR Therapeutics shares are trading lower today as investors lock in profits following a strong run earlier this month. The stock had seen significant momentum leading up to its February 11 earnings report, where it posted an EPS of -$1.37—a beat against analyst expectations of -$1.20. Despite today’s slight pullback, long-term sentiment remains anchored by the ongoing commercial launch of CASGEVY and recent updates regarding its pipeline of next-generation gene editors for cardiovascular and autoimmune diseases.

Intellia Therapeutics Inc (NTLA): $13.42 USD, -1.18% (-$0.16 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Intellia shares are seeing a modest decline this morning as the company prepares to host its Q4 and Full-Year 2025 earnings call today at 8:00 a.m. ET. While investors are looking for a beat on the expected -$0.97 EPS, the focus is squarely on the pipeline—specifically the resumption of the MAGNITUDE-2 Phase 3 trial after the FDA recently lifted a clinical hold.

Merck & Co Inc (MRK): $122.46 USD, -1.19% (-$1.47 USD), Healthcare / Drug Manufacturers—General. Merck shares are under pressure today despite a flurry of positive clinical news. Yesterday, the company announced the FDA approval of NUMELVI for animal health and presented promising Phase 3 data for its HIV-1 regimen at CROI 2026. However, today’s decline reflects broader market rotation away from “defensive” pharma names into high-growth tech. Investors are also weighing the long-term impact of its newly announced Human Health reorganization as the company prepares for the Keytruda patent expiration in late 2028.

 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 24, 2026)

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $409.38 USD, +2.39% (+$9.55 USD), Consumer Cyclical / Auto Manufacturers. Tesla shares rebounded on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, finding support above the psychological $400 mark as investors weighed long-term optimism for its “AI and Robotics” chapter against a frothy valuation. Despite a rocky start to the year and a year-over-year decline in automotive revenue, the stock was lifted by growing excitement surrounding the Optimus humanoid robot and its potential for human-level proficiency in 2026. This sentiment was further supported by Wall Street analysts like Dan Ives, who recently projected a potential $2 trillion market cap as the company pivots from a hardware-centric model to a physical AI powerhouse.

Brand Engagement Network Inc (BNAI): $28.20 USD, +40.23% (+$8.09 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. BNAI shares surged on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the AI-driven customer engagement firm continues a period of extreme volatility fueled by high-premium private placements and strategic expansion into Africa. Market interest remains high following the company’s recent termination of a dilutive equity agreement and its $2 million licensing deal with Valio Technologies, which investors view as a pivotal step toward stabilizing the balance sheet ahead of its March earnings report.

Edesa Biotech (EDSA): $1.51 USD, +67.96% (+$0.61 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Edesa Biotech shares surged following the release of additional Phase 3 trial data for its antibody paridiprubart, which showed a significant 27% reduction in mortality across a broad patient population.

Rich Sparkle Holdings (ANPA): $12.51 USD, +52.93% (+$4.33 USD), Industrials / Logistics. Rich Sparkle Holdings rose sharply as speculative interest intensified following recent reports of expanded distribution contracts in the emerging markets sector.

Keysight Technologies (KEYS): $301.48 USD, +23.05% (+$56.48 USD), Technology / Electronic Measurement. Keysight hit an all-time high after a “blowout” Q1 earnings report, where management significantly raised 2026 guidance due to accelerating demand for AI infrastructure and defense electronics.

PayPal Holdings Inc (PYPL): $47.02 USD, +6.74% (+$2.97 USD), Financial Services / Consumer Finance. PayPal shares surged on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as takeover speculation intensified following reports that the private payments giant Stripe—alongside several major banks—has expressed interest in an acquisition. The “buyout buzz” provided a much-needed lift to the stock, which has recently faced heavy selling pressure due to a leadership transition and a lowered 2026 profit outlook.

Clarivate Plc (CLVT): $2.35 USD, +39.88% (+$0.67 USD), Professional Services / Information Services. Clarivate shares surged on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, after the company delivered a significant Q4 earnings beat and announced a major strategic pivot. Investors reacted enthusiastically to the news that Clarivate is pursuing a sale of its Life Sciences & Healthcare business to sharpen its focus on Academia and Intellectual Property, alongside a robust 2026 outlook targeting a 10% increase in free cash flow.

Intel Corp (INTC): $46.12 USD, +5.71% (+$2.49 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. Intel shares jumped on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, snapping a five-day losing streak following the announcement of a multi-year technical partnership with AI start-up SambaNova Systems. The deal, which includes an investment from Intel Capital, will integrate Intel Xeon processors into SambaNova’s new SN50-based AI inference systems. Momentum was further amplified by a broader semiconductor rally triggered by AMD’s massive $60 billion AI chip deal with Meta, signaling robust industry-wide demand that eased recent investor fears over supply constraints and competition.

CoreWeave Inc (CRWV): $99.30 USD, +9.31% (+$8.46 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. CoreWeave shares surged on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the “Neocloud” pioneer regained momentum ahead of its high-stakes Q4 earnings report this Thursday. Investor confidence was bolstered by a significant $2 billion strategic investment from Nvidia at $87.20 per share, intended to accelerate the buildout of 5 gigawatts of “AI factories” by 2030. Despite ongoing legal scrutiny regarding infrastructure delays and a heavy $18.5 billion debt load, the stock rallied as technical indicators moved above key moving averages, with options traders pricing in a massive 15% move following the upcoming results.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.65 CAD, +8.33% (+$0.05 CAD), Healthcare / Medical Care Facilities. Healwell AI shares climbed on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the market continued to digest the recent launch of WELLTRUST, a consent-first data governance platform developed in partnership with WELL Health Technologies. The rally reflects growing investor confidence in the company’s transition to a “pure-play” SaaS and AI business model, following a string of strategic divestments and successful integration of its DARWEN™ AI engine.

Leonardo DRS Inc (DRS): $43.82 USD, +14.89% (+$5.68 USD), Industrials / Aerospace & Defense. Leonardo DRS shares rallied on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, after the company reported Q4 earnings that beat analyst estimates and issued a strong 2026 outlook. The defense contractor’s performance was bolstered by record bookings and a growing backlog of $8.7 billion, alongside recent momentum from being selected as a participant in the Missile Defense Agency’s $151 billion SHIELD program earlier this month.

Rocket Doctor AI Inc (AIDR): $0.68 CAD, +7.94% (+$0.05 CAD), Healthcare / Healthcare Technology. Rocket Doctor AI shares climbed on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the company expanded its rural Alberta footprint through a new virtual care partnership with Lethbridge County, providing no-fee medical access to over 10,000 residents via its AI-triage platform. This regional milestone further bolstered investor sentiment already heightened by a strong start to the year, which included a twice-upsized $5.2 million private placement and the acquisition of Alea Health. These strategic moves, combined with new in-network agreements in California, have successfully scaled the company’s total covered patient reach to over 13 million members across North America.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $13.43 USD, +6.59% (+$0.83 USD), Industrials / Specialized Business Services. NuScale Power shares rallied on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as bargain hunters moved in following a steep February decline triggered by a series of bearish price target cuts from Barclays and Goldman Sachs. Despite facing a wave of newly filed securities fraud class actions regarding its ENTRA1 partnership disclosures, investor sentiment was lifted by the company’s ambitious target to deploy 72 reactor modules by 2030 to meet surging AI data center energy demand. The stock’s recovery reflects a “buy the dip” mentality ahead of its Q4 earnings report on February 26, with some analysts maintaining that the company’s status as the only NRC-certified SMR designer provides a unique long-term competitive moat.

MARA Holdings Inc (MARA): $8.05 USD, +2.22% (+$0.18 USD), Financial Services / Software—Infrastructure. MARA shares edged higher on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as investors positioned themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings report scheduled for February 26. Despite recent headwinds from insider selling and a “sell-the-rally” phase in the broader crypto market, the stock found support as Bitcoin prices stabilized, with traders showing increased interest in call options betting on a post-earnings recovery.

Riot Platforms Inc (RIOT): $16.50 USD, +5.43% (+$0.85 USD), Financial Services / Capital Markets. Riot shares surged on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the market reacted to a high-stakes campaign from activist investor Starboard Value. In a public letter, Starboard urged the company to aggressively pivot its 1.7 gigawatts of Texas power capacity toward AI and High-Performance Computing (HPC) data centers. The activist investor estimates that this strategic shift could generate $1.6 billion in annual EBITDA and unlock an equity value between $9 billion and $21 billion, potentially driving the stock price toward a target range of $23 to $53 per share.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $128.84 USD, −1.35% (−$1.76 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. Palantir shares drifted lower on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the stock faced valuation pressure and a broader “risk-off” sentiment in the SaaS sector. Despite reporting a strong $4.3 billion total contract value in its latest results, the stock remains nearly 38% below its 52-week peak as investors navigate concerns over an elevated P/E ratio and recent insider selling.

Palo Alto Networks Inc (PANW): $141.67 USD, −1.71% (−$2.47 USD), Technology / Software—Infrastructure. Palo Alto Networks shares hit a new 52-week low on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the stock continued to slide following its fiscal Q2 earnings report on February 17. Despite beating top and bottom-line estimates, the company’s decision to lower its full-year EPS guidance to $3.65–$3.70—largely due to the costs of acquiring CyberArk and Chronosphere—triggered a wave of price target cuts from firms like JPMorgan. Investor sentiment remains dampened by the short-term margin impact of this aggressive “platformization” strategy, even as the company moves to close the AI security gap with its newly announced intent to acquire Koi.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $325.49 USD, −1.47% (−$4.85 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. Broadcom shares underperformed on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the market focused on a projected 100-basis point sequential gross margin decline ahead of its March 4 earnings report. While the company recently secured a massive $21 billion custom chip deal with Anthropic and launched its BroadPeak 6G connectivity SoC, investors remain wary that the rapid shift toward lower-margin AI hardware is squeezing the profitability of its core semiconductor business.

SanDisk Corp (SNDK): $638.52 USD, −4.20% (−$27.97 USD), Technology / Computer Hardware. SanDisk shares pulled back on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the stock fell victim to a high-profile short call from Citron Research. Short-seller Andrew Left targeted the company’s valuation—which has rocketed over 1,200% since its 2025 spin-off from Western Digital—arguing that SanDisk is being priced like a proprietary AI moat despite selling “commodity” NAND flash. The decline was further exacerbated by news that former parent Western Digital is liquidating its remaining stake through a massive $3.1 billion secondary offering, creating a significant supply overhang just as the stock reached record highs.

Bank of America Corp (BAC): $50.41 USD, −1.29% (−$0.66 USD), Financial Services / Banks—Diversified. Bank of America shares slipped on Tuesday, February 24, 2026, as the broader financial sector faced a “technical tremor” following the XLF ETF breaking key support levels. Investor sentiment was weighed down by regulatory uncertainty surrounding the Credit Card Competition Act (CCCA) and proposed federal caps on interest rates, alongside a Bank of America fund-manager survey showing a rapid rotation of capital out of U.S. equities toward emerging markets.

ImmunityBio Inc (IBRX): $9.82 USD, +12.87% (+$1.12 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. IBRX continued its upward momentum on Monday, fueled by recent announcements regarding its strategic partnerships in the Middle East and ongoing regulatory optimism for its oncology pipeline.

PayPal Holdings Inc (PYPL): $44.05 USD, +5.76% (+$2.40 USD), Financials / Fintech. PayPal outperformed the broader S&P 500 gainers as investors sought value in the fintech space, supported by a new global partnership with The OLB Group to enhance digital payment gateways.

BioAtla Inc (BCAB): $0.18 USD, +11.33% (+$0.019 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. BioAtla shares climbed on Monday as the clinical-stage biotech company continues to navigate its regulatory path with the FDA for its oncology pipeline. The gain comes amidst recent updates regarding its $40 million special purpose vehicle (SPV) to fund Phase 3 trials and ongoing efforts to maintain its Nasdaq listing through a strategic 1-for-50 reverse stock split merger plan.

Eli Lilly (LLY): $1,058.56 USD, +4.86% (+$49.04 USD), Healthcare / Pharmaceuticals. Eli Lilly shares climbed as the company announced the launch of its Zepbound “KwikPen” multi-dose delivery system, further solidifying its dominant position in the weight-management market.

Procter & Gamble (PG): $165.17 USD, +2.73% (+$4.39 USD), Consumer Staples. P&G served as a defensive haven for investors on Monday, gaining ground as the Dow Jones faced pressure from tech sell-offs and geopolitical tariff uncertainty.

AbbVie Inc (ABBV): $229.48 USD, +2.08% (+$4.67 USD), Healthcare / Pharmaceuticals. AbbVie shares rose on Monday as the company announced a $380 million investment to build two new manufacturing facilities in North Chicago, targeting the high-growth neuroscience and obesity markets. This strategic expansion, combined with the momentum from Friday’s FDA approval of its all-oral CLL treatment (Venclexta + acalabrutinib), drove the stock higher as investors rewarded the company’s efforts to diversify its pipeline and scale domestic production capacity.

Pfizer Inc (PFE): $27.06 USD, +1.46% (+$0.39 USD), Healthcare / Pharmaceuticals. Pfizer shares trended higher on Monday as the market continued to favor high-yield healthcare value plays over growth-heavy tech. Investor sentiment was bolstered by recent clinical momentum in the company’s oncology franchise—specifically positive Phase 3 BREAKWATER trial data for its Braftovi regimen in colorectal cancer—and a strategic pivot toward 2026 catalysts. With the stock trading at a deep discount relative to historical averages and maintaining a robust 6.4% dividend yield, “bottom-fishing” investors are increasingly betting on Pfizer’s ability to offset post-pandemic revenue declines through its aggressive expansion into the antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) and obesity markets

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $130.60 USD, -3.43% (-$4.64 USD), Technology / Software. Palantir shares retreated on Monday as the “AI darling” caught the brunt of a broader software sell-off, with its premium valuation coming under intense scrutiny. Despite reporting “historic” Q4 results earlier in the month—highlighted by 70% revenue growth and a record-setting $4.3 billion in total contract value—the stock has faced a sharp 35% pullback from its 2025 highs. Investors are currently weighing a “valuation reset,” as the stock still trades at over 100 times forward earnings, leaving little room for error amid rising global tariff concerns and a strategic headquarters move to Miami that has sparked debate over management priorities.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $3.71 USD, -3.89% (-$0.15 USD), Technology / Software. BigBear.ai shares slid on Monday as the small-cap AI player fell further behind the broader market ahead of its March 2 earnings report. Investor sentiment remains weighed down by persistent concerns over heavy shareholder dilution—the company has nearly tripled its share count since 2024—and a recent proposal to double its authorized shares to 1 billion. Despite its $250 million acquisition of Ask Sage to bolster its generative AI footprint in the defense sector, stagnant revenue growth and a high price-to-sales ratio relative to IT peers have led to a “valuation reset,” with the stock down over 30% in the last month.

Intel Corp (INTC): $43.63 USD, -1.09% (-$0.48 USD), Technology / Semiconductors. Intel shares edged lower on Monday, underperforming the broader semiconductor sector as investors digested a mix of long-term optimism and near-term execution hurdles. While the stock has been buoyed recently by a massive $7 billion strategic investment from Nvidia and SoftBank—including Nvidia taking a 4% stake to validate Intel’s “18A” foundry ambitions—Monday’s decline reflected renewed concerns over “Nova Lake” architecture delays and a conservative Q1 revenue guide of $11.7B–$12.7B. With AMD continuing to erode Intel’s market share in the server space and the company guiding toward breakeven earnings for the current quarter, the “Silicon Giant” remains a high-stakes turnaround play as it races to prove its manufacturing reliability against TSMC.

Datavault AI Inc (DVLT): $0.68 USD, -6.64% (-$0.048 USD), Technology / Software. Datavault AI shares dropped on Monday following the company’s announcement that it has postponed the distribution of its highly anticipated warrant and “Dream Bowl Meme Coin II” token dividends to February 27. While the company recently raised its 2025 revenue guidance to approximately $40 million—a 1,300% year-over-year increase—the delay in the digital asset rollout sparked short-term profit-taking. Investors are balancing the massive growth projections against the volatility of the company’s Web 3.0 and “Acoustic Science” ventures, as well as the conditional nature of the upcoming warrant distribution.

Scilex Holding Co (SCLX): $7.85 USD, -3.33% (-$0.27 USD), Healthcare / Biotechnology. Scilex shares trended lower on Monday as the specialty pharmaceutical company continues to face high volatility following its aggressive $20 million strategic investment in Quantum Scan Holdings and the ongoing distribution complexities of the “Dream Bowl” digital assets from its partner, Datavault AI. While Scilex is successfully growing its non-opioid pain management portfolio—anchored by ZTlido and ELYXYB—investors remain cautious due to the company’s complex capital structure and the recent issuance of new warrants to Oramed Pharmaceuticals. The stock is currently navigating a technical “reset” as it approaches its March 2026 earnings report, with the market weighing its massive long-term revenue projections against short-term liquidity needs.

CrowdStrike Holdings Inc (CRWD): $350.33 USD, -9.85% (-$38.27 USD), Technology / Cybersecurity. CrowdStrike shares plunged on Monday, extending a multi-day sell-off that has wiped out over 25% of the company’s value since the start of the year. The decline was intensified by the launch of Anthropic’s “Claude Code Security” tool, which sparked investor anxiety over potential AI disruption to specialized cybersecurity platforms. Despite CEO George Kurtz defending the company’s “Falcon” platform on LinkedIn—arguing that AI-driven coding tools complement rather than replace endpoint security—investors opted to de-risk. The sharp drop was further exacerbated by a 1.7% fall in the Dow Jones and a broader software rout following a 15% tariff escalation by the Trump administration, which has left high-valuation tech stocks particularly vulnerable to market volatility.

MercadoLibre shares slipped today amid broader market volatility and profit-taking, despite continued optimism around its e-commerce expansion and digital payments business. Recent downward pressure reflects several factors: concerns over rapid credit book expansion elevating risk profiles in the Latin American macroeconomic environment, regional economic volatility including “Argentinian vagaries,” institutional selling with some holders like Resona Asset Management reducing positions, and natural profit-taking after the stock reached a high of $2,295.00 on January 27, 2026.

Intel Corp (INTC): $44.62 USD, −1.85% (−$0.84 USD), Semiconductors / Technology. Intel shares declined today as investors reacted to disappointing Q1 2026 guidance and ongoing manufacturing challenges that have limited the company’s ability to meet surging demand. Despite a fourth-quarter 2025 earnings beat on January 22, 2026, shares dropped 17.03% the following day after management warned of supply constraints and projected breakeven earnings for the upcoming quarter.

SAP SE (SAP): $200.26 USD, −2.41% (−$4.94 USD), Technology / Enterprise Software & Cloud. SAP shares declined today as investors reacted to disappointing 2026 cloud revenue forecasts and recent analyst downgrades. Earlier on January 29, 2026, the stock plunged 15%—its steepest one-day decline in over five years—after management provided an outlook for cloud revenue that fell short of market expectations.

Intel Corp (INTC): $45.46 USD, −1.56% (−$0.72 USD), Semiconductors / Technology.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD): $200.12 USD, −1.46% (−$2.96 USD), Semiconductors / Technology. AMD shares slipped today amid broader AI‑sector trading dynamics and competitive pressure, including a notable expanded AI infrastructure pact between Meta and Nvidia that lifted Nvidia shares while dampening AMD’s performance, reflecting investor rotation toward Nvidia’s dominant position in AI chips and concerns about AMD’s near‑term ability to win major data‑center contracts.

Constellation Energy Corp (CEG): $294.05 USD, −2.96% (−$8.96 USD), Energy / Utilities. Constellation Energy shares fell modestly today despite broader market gains, ending a recent two‑day winning streak and trading below recent highs as some profit‑taking and sector rotation weighed on the stock. The decline comes even as the company’s Calpine acquisition and long‑term power contracts (especially deals tied to data centers and nuclear energy demand) continue to shape its longer‑term narrative — suggesting today’s drop reflects normal trading fluctuations rather than new negative news.

 
 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 17, 2026)

Masimo Corporation (MASI): $174.78 USD, +34.30% (+$44.63 USD), Healthcare. Masimo shares skyrocketed today following the official announcement that Danaher Corporation (DHR) will acquire the medical technology pioneer in an all-cash deal valued at approximately $9.9 billion. Under the terms of the agreement, Danaher will pay $180.00 per share, representing a roughly 38% premium over Masimo’s closing price of $130.15 on Friday.

The acquisition marks the end of a transformative era for Masimo, which recently refocused on its core medical mission after a high-profile proxy battle led to the divestiture of its consumer audio division. Danaher plans to integrate Masimo as a standalone brand within its Diagnostics segment, pairing Masimo’s “gold standard” pulse oximetry tech with Radiometer’s blood gas analysis. The transaction is expected to close in the second half of 2026, subject to regulatory and shareholder approval.

Apple Inc (AAPL): $263.88 USD, +3.17% (+$8.10 USD), Technology. Apple shares climbed today as the market rallied behind a “triple-threat” of AI catalysts. A leaked Bloomberg report revealed Apple is developing new AI-powered wearable hardware, including smart glasses (code-named N50) and a wearable “pendant” designed to serve as the always-on “eyes and ears” for Siri. Simultaneously, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives released a highly bullish note, calling recent sell-offs “unwarranted” and predicting that Apple’s AI monetization—boosted by its Google Gemini partnership—could add up to $100 per share to its valuation. This sentiment was further bolstered by data showing the iPhone 17 remains a dominant force, driving a 23% year-over-year surge in first-quarter sales.

The OLB Group, Inc. (OLB): $1.48 USD, +256.54% (+$1.06 USD), Financials. OLB Group shares skyrocketed today after the fintech provider announced a major global partnership with PayPal. The agreement integrates PayPal’s full suite of services—including PayPal Checkout, Venmo, and “Pay Later” options—directly into OLB’s SecurePay gateway. CEO Ronny Yakov described the deal as a “force multiplier” that gives small and mid-sized merchants enterprise-grade payment tools. While the stock saw massive intraday gains reaching as high as $1.80, investors are keeping a close eye on volatility, as the stock gave back some ground in after-hours trading following the initial 250%+ surge.

Beneficient (BENF): $3.82 USD, -7.62% (-$0.32 USD), Financials. Beneficient shares slumped after the company’s Q3 2026 results showed that the fair value of its collateral investments declined by 29%, falling from $291.4 million to $205.8 million. While the company celebrated the resolution of long-standing GWG litigation and a return to Nasdaq compliance, the market’s focus shifted to an operating loss of $29.2 million in its Ben Liquidity segment and a massive $391 million allowance for credit losses against its loan portfolio.

ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd (ZIM): $27.85 USD, +25.45% (+$5.65 USD), Industrials. ZIM shares jumped to their highest level in over a year following the blockbuster announcement that German shipping giant Hapag-Lloyd has agreed to acquire the company in an all-cash deal valued at approximately $4.2 billion. Under the agreement, ZIM shareholders will receive $35.00 per share in cash, a massive 58% premium over the stock’s recent unaffected closing price. The merger is expected to yield over $500 million in annual synergies and solidify Hapag-Lloyd’s position as a dominant force in the Transpacific and Atlantic trade lanes while the Israeli government retains a “Golden Share” in a newly formed entity to ensure national security interests.

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $184.97 USD, +1.18% (+$2.16 USD), Technology. NVIDIA shares edged higher today as the market reacted to a massive multiyear, multigenerational strategic partnership with Meta Platforms. Under the deal, Meta will deploy millions of NVIDIA’s current Blackwell and upcoming Rubin GPUs to power its AI infrastructure, while also scaling the use of NVIDIA’s Grace CPUs for better energy efficiency. The partnership includes the integration of NVIDIA’s Confidential Computing technology for WhatsApp to enhance user privacy in AI interactions. This major win, combined with a price target hike from UBS to $245, has bolstered investor confidence ahead of NVIDIA’s high-stakes Q4 earnings report scheduled for next Wednesday, February 25.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $133.02 USD, +1.23% (+$1.61 USD), Technology. Palantir shares stabilized today after a volatile morning, finding support near the $130 level following a month-long “valuation reckoning.” Despite being down 27% year-to-date, investor sentiment was bolstered today by a Citi Research upgrade to “Buy” with a price target of $235, as analysts emphasized that the company’s fundamental story remains the strongest in software. The market is increasingly focused on Palantir’s “tectonic shift” in AI adoption, highlighted by its recent Q4 results showing 70% year-over-year revenue growth and a staggering Rule of 40 score of 127%. Additionally, news that Palantir is following the “Florida wave” by establishing a major new presence in the state added to the narrative of a company aggressively scaling its commercial and government operations for a dominant 2026.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $332.54 USD, +2.27% (+$7.37 USD), Technology. Broadcom shares advanced today following news that Cathie Wood’s ARK ETF made a substantial purchase of over 24,000 shares, signaling institutional confidence in the company’s AI trajectory. The stock is also benefiting from the recent launch of the industry’s first enterprise Wi-Fi 8 solution, which is specifically designed to handle the massive data demands of “AI-ready” edge networks. Sentiment remains high as analysts at UBS reiterated a Buy rating with a $475 price target, citing Broadcom’s dominant position in custom AI accelerators (TPUs) for hyperscalers like Google and the high-margin recurring revenue generated by its VMware integration.

Amazon.com Inc (AMZN): $201.15 USD, +1.19% (+$2.36 USD), Technology. Amazon shares edged higher today as investors began to find a “valuation floor” following a turbulent month. The stock had previously faced a sharp 12% sell-off after management projected a staggering $200 billion in capital expenditures for 2026—nearly $44 billion above analyst expectations—sparking fears of “CAPEX fatigue.” However, sentiment shifted today after AWS CEO Matt Garman assuaged those fears in a series of media appearances, emphasizing that Amazon is “monetizing capacity as fast as we can install it” and highlighting a 24% year-over-year acceleration in cloud revenue. Analysts at Morningstar and Wedbush reiterated “Buy” ratings, suggesting that at approximately 26 times earnings, the stock is now “materially undervalued” given its dominance in both AI infrastructure and retail logistics.

Oklo Inc (OKLO): $67.64 USD, +2.97% (+$1.95 USD), Utilities. Oklo shares moved higher today as the company continues to ride the momentum of its “data-center-to-reactor” strategy. Recent gains follow a landmark agreement with Meta Platforms (META) to develop a 1.2-gigawatt nuclear power campus in Ohio, designed specifically to meet the massive electricity demands of Meta’s AI infrastructure. Despite being down roughly 60% from its 2025 all-time highs of $193.84, the stock is seeing renewed support as investors focus on a key Department of Energy (DOE) goal for July 4, 2026, which targets the first successful “criticality” stage for pilot reactors. While some analysts remain wary of the company’s $100 million annual burn rate and zero current revenue, the Meta partnership provides a crucial capital lifeline and validates Oklo’s Aurora powerhouse technology as a viable solution for the AI energy crisis.

Qualcomm Inc (QCOM): $142.63 USD, +1.37% (+$1.93 USD), Technology. Qualcomm shares moved into the green today following the major legal victory that the UK’s Competition Appeal Tribunal indicated it would rule in favor of the chipmaker, leading the consumer group Which? to withdraw its £480 million ($650M) “patent tax” lawsuit. The market also reacted positively to Qualcomm’s announcement of a new $150 million Strategic AI Venture Fund focused on the Indian startup ecosystem, specifically targeting edge AI for automotive and robotics. While the stock has been under pressure since early February due to a global memory chip shortage weighing on its Q2 handset guidance, today’s “legal clean slate” and continued expansion into industrial AI helped provide a much-needed bounce for the semiconductor giant.

AstraZeneca plc (AZN): $209.48 USD, +1.91% (+$3.93 USD), Healthcare. AstraZeneca hit a new all-time high today as the market continues to cheer its transition to a primary NYSE listing, which was completed earlier this month. The stock is riding a wave of “earnings euphoria” following a strong Q4 report that showcased a 20% surge in oncology sales and 16 positive Phase 3 readouts over the past year. Investors are particularly focused on the company’s aggressive entry into the obesity market; its oral GLP-1 candidate, elecoglipron (ECC5004), recently entered Phase 3 trials, positioning AstraZeneca to disrupt the current injectable duopoly. Additionally, recent news that its cancer drug Datroway was granted FDA Priority Review for triple-negative breast cancer, combined with a 3% dividend hike, has solidified its status as a top-tier pharmaceutical compounder with a clear path toward its $80 billion revenue goal for 2030.

Celestica Inc (CLS): $390.87 CAD, +2.40% (+$9.15 CAD), Technology. Celestica shares gained ground on the TSX today as the market continues to reward the company’s transformation into an AI infrastructure powerhouse. Momentum is being driven by the recently updated 2026 outlook, where management raised revenue targets to $17 billion USD, fueled by a “blowout” performance in its Connectivity & Cloud Solutions (CCS) segment. Investors are particularly bullish on Celestica’s deepening partnership with Google for TPU manufacturing and its aggressive $1 billion capital investment plan to expand capacity for AI data center hardware. Despite recent sector-wide volatility and minor “valuation digestion” after the stock’s massive 2025 run, today’s move was supported by a new “Buy” rating from BofA Securities with a price target of $543 CAD, highlighting Celestica’s first-mover advantage in high-value 800G and 1.6T networking switches.

CoreWeave Inc (CRWV): $91.00 USD, -5.25% (-$5.04 USD), Technology. CoreWeave shares slumped today as a wave of “insider selling” and mounting legal scrutiny dampened enthusiasm ahead of its high-stakes Q4 2025 earnings report on February 26. Investors reacted to recent regulatory filings revealing that CEO Michael Intrator sold over 82,000 shares, a move that triggered a “sell-first, ask-questions-later” response. Adding to the pressure, several law firms officially filed class-action lawsuits today, alleging that CoreWeave misled investors regarding its ability to scale data center capacity and meet revenue targets amid power and capital constraints. While the company remains a dominant AI infrastructure play with backing from NVIDIA, the market is currently pivoting toward a more cautious “show-me” stance, weighing its massive $5 billion revenue guidance against the reality of its widening losses and a $13 billion capital expenditure plan.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $3.94 USD, -3.43% (-$0.14 USD), Technology. BigBear.ai shares continued their downward trend today as the market reacted to a critical investigative report regarding its recent $250 million acquisition of Ask Sage. The report highlighted that the Pentagon’s launch of GenAI.mil—a free generative AI platform now used by five of six military branches—directly threatens the addressable market for Ask Sage’s services. This competitive pressure comes at a vulnerable time for BigBear.ai, which recently reported a 20% year-over-year revenue decline and significant margin compression. While the company announced today that it will report full-year 2025 results on March 2, the stock remains under technical pressure, trading well below its key moving averages as investors weigh the strategic value of its AI acquisitions against rising government-backed competition.

Intel Corp (INTC): $46.18 USD, -1.30% (-$0.61 USD), Technology. Intel shares traded lower today as the market weighed the long-term potential of CEO Lip-Bu Tan’s turnaround against immediate supply chain hurdles. While the recent launch of the Panther Lake AI PC chips and a price hike for server CPUs in China provided a temporary lift earlier this month, the stock is currently facing pressure from a “muted” Q1 2026 outlook. Investors remain cautious as management warned that available supply is at its “lowest level” this quarter due to severe manufacturing constraints and low yields on the 18A process node. Despite a massive 84% rally in 2025, analysts at DA Davidson recently initiated coverage with a “Neutral” rating, suggesting that much of the optimism surrounding Intel’s transition into a domestic foundry leader is already priced in at current levels.

Micron Technology Inc (MU): $399.78 USD, -2.89% (-$11.88 USD), Technology. Micron shares pulled back today as investors locked in profits following a massive multi-hundred percent run over the last year. Despite the dip, the fundamental outlook remains aggressive: management recently confirmed that its entire 2026 High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) capacity is already sold out under multi-year agreements. While the stock faced some technical pressure after hitting a recent “pivot top,” analyst sentiment remains overwhelmingly bullish; Needham recently raised its price target to $450, citing Micron’s early ramp of next-generation HBM4 and its pivotal role in clearing the AI memory bottleneck. Investors are currently weighing these long-term growth signals against near-term valuation concerns and a massive $20 billion capital expenditure plan for fiscal 2026.

Rivian Automotive Inc (RIVN): $16.47 USD, -7.11% (-$1.26 USD), Consumer Discretionary. Rivian shares tumbled today as a high-impact DA Davidson downgrade to “Underperform” sparked fresh skepticism over the company’s aggressive 2026 rollout. While Rivian’s Q4 2025 earnings report last week was a “Tesla moment”—showing its first-ever annual positive gross profit and a narrower-than-expected loss of $0.54 per share—the stock is now giving back those gains as reality sets in. Analysts warned that the company’s 2026 delivery guidance of 62,000 to 67,000 units relies on a flawless, high-speed ramp-up of the mass-market R2 SUV starting in June. With capital expenditures projected to nearly double to $2 billion and a projected $1.8 billion EBITDA loss for 2026, investors are pivoting from the “earnings euphoria” back to concerns over cash burn and the execution risks of shifting from a boutique luxury brand to a high-volume player.

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $410.63 USD, -1.63% (-$6.81 USD), Consumer Discretionary. Tesla shares faced downward pressure today as investors reacted to a mixed bag of news regarding its autonomous future. While the company celebrated a regulatory win—California’s DMV decided not to suspend Tesla’s sales license after the company corrected “deceptive” marketing for its Full Self-Driving (FSD) software—this was offset by a sobering report from Austin. New data sent to federal regulators revealed that Tesla’s nascent Robotaxi service has been involved in 14 crashes since its June launch, including incidents involving injuries and a collision with a city bus. Additionally, a criminal defamation complaint filed by Germany’s IG Metall union against Tesla’s Giga Berlin manager added to the legal noise, while the market continues to grapple with the recent announcement that Tesla will discontinue the Model S and Model X by Q2 2026 to make room for humanoid robot (Optimus) production.

D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS): $18.44 USD, -6.25% (-$1.23 USD), Technology. D-Wave shares fell sharply today as a sector-wide “quantum cooling” trend coincided with nervous profit-taking ahead of the company’s high-stakes Q4 earnings report on February 26. While D-Wave recently dominated headlines with a $550 million acquisition of Quantum Circuits and a new $20 million deal with Florida Atlantic University, the stock is currently being weighed down by its high cash burn rate—having reported a $313 million net loss over the first three quarters of 2025. Today’s drop was further exacerbated by news of small “sell-to-cover” insider transactions by the Chief Legal Officer. Despite the 30% year-to-date decline, many analysts, including those at TD Cowen and Needham, remain bullish, citing the company’s unique “dual-platform” approach (annealing and gate-model) as a major differentiator that could lead to a revenue surge in 2026.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 13, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

Corsair Gaming Inc (CRSR): $6.79 USD, +48.25% (+$2.21 USD), Technology. Corsair rocketed after a blowout Q4 report and the authorization of a new $50 million share buyback program. Management’s 2026 guidance significantly exceeded expectations, as they highlighted a recovery in PC gaming hardware and the evolution of their Stream Deck platform as a “unifying control layer” for local AI computing and content creation.

Rivian Automotive Inc (RIVN): $17.73 USD, +26.64% (+$3.73 USD), Consumer Cyclical. Rivian surged following a Q4 earnings beat where it reached a “key inflection point” with its first full year of positive automotive gross profit. Investor confidence was further bolstered by an upgrade from Deutsche Bank (target $23) and excitement surrounding the upcoming R2 mass-market platform launch, which is positioned to compete directly with the Tesla Model Y.

General Motors Co (GM): $81.08 USD, +1.44% (+$1.15 USD), Consumer Cyclical. GM ended the week in the green as investors digested its massive $6 billion share buyback authorization and a 20% dividend hike. Despite $7.2 billion in EV-related charges, the market responded positively to GM’s strategic shift toward “LMR” (lithium manganese-rich) battery tech and its return to 8%-10% profit margins in North America, signaling a lean and profitable transition back to its core truck and SUV strength.

Barrick Mining Corp (ABX): $65.32 CAD, +5.63% (+$3.48 CAD), Basic Materials. Barrick surged on Friday as gold prices reclaimed the $5,000 per ounce level, driven by a weakening U.S. dollar and cooling inflation data. Investors rushed back into the stock after management confirmed a 40% dividend hike and a new policy targeting a 50% payout of free cash flow. Sentiment was further bolstered by the news of a $500 million increase to its share buyback program and rumors that the company is fast-tracking the IPO of its high-margin North American gold assets to unlock “safe-jurisdiction” value for shareholders.

Tri Pointe Homes Inc (TPH): $46.37 USD, +26.70% (+$9.80 USD), Industrials. Tri Pointe soared to near its acquisition price after Japan’s Sumitomo Forestry announced a definitive agreement to acquire the homebuilder for $47.00 per share in an all-cash deal valued at $4.5 billion. The deal, representing a 29% premium, will allow Tri Pointe to operate as a distinct brand within Sumitomo’s growing U.S. portfolio.

D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS): $19.67 USD, +4.52% (+$0.85 USD), Technology. D-Wave joined the broader quantum rally, buoyed by recent analyst initiations from TD Cowen and Mizuho with “Buy” and “Outperform” ratings. Investors are increasingly focused on D-Wave’s unique position as a “dual-platform” company (annealing and gate-model) following its Quantum Circuits acquisition, as well as its growing push into defense industry optimization contracts.

Rigetti Computing Inc (RGTI): $16.09 USD, +7.34% (+$1.10 USD), Technology. Rigetti caught a late-session bid as traders rotated back into “pure-play” quantum stocks following a brutal week of analyst downgrades. Despite TD Cowen moving to a “Hold” earlier in the week, bulls are looking toward the end of Q1 2026 for the general availability of the 108-qubit Cepheus system. The bounce was further supported by the company’s strong $600 million cash runway, which de-risks its intensive R&D roadmap through 2027.

IonQ Inc (IONQ): $34.11 USD, +8.98% (+$2.81 USD), Technology. IonQ bounced back strongly as institutional buyers, including Norway’s sovereign wealth fund, reportedly stepped in to counter recent short-seller allegations. Sentiment was further lifted by the company’s progress toward vertical integration following its SkyWater Technology acquisition, with investors increasingly viewing IonQ as the “picks and shovels” leader for the 2026 quantum computing roadmap.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $131.41 USD, +1.77% (+$2.28 USD), Technology. Palantir steadied on Friday after a volatile week, rebounding slightly from a sharp sell-off triggered by Michael Burry’s bearish 10,000-word newsletter. While skeptics point to a high forward P/E, bulls were reinvigorated by news that the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) granted new cloud authorization for Palantir’s federal systems. This accreditation allows for faster deployment of AI across secure defense environments, reinforcing the company’s “Rule of 40” score of 127% and its massive 115% growth guidance for U.S. commercial revenue in 2026.

Magna International Inc (MGA): $68.73 USD, +18.87% (+$10.91 USD), Consumer Cyclical. Magna gapped up after reporting Q4 adjusted earnings of $2.18 per share, crushing the $1.78 consensus. Investors piled in after the mobility tech giant issued aggressive FY2026 EPS guidance of $6.25–$7.25, signaling high confidence in its margin expansion and its role in supplying hardware for software-defined vehicles.

Coinbase Global Inc (COIN): $164.32 USD, +16.46% (+$23.23 USD), Financial Services. Despite reporting a surprise GAAP loss due to crypto volatility, Coinbase shares rallied as the market focused on a massive 156% year-over-year surge in trading volume. CFO Alesia Haas noted that “traders are buying the dip,” and the company’s pivot toward Agentic Commerce (AI agents using crypto) provided a futuristic catalyst that overshadowed short-term headwinds.

Applied Materials Inc (AMAT): $354.91 USD, +8.08% (+$26.52 USD), Technology. The semiconductor equipment leader reached new heights after posting record revenue and beating Q1 expectations ($2.38 EPS vs. $2.19 expected). CEO Gary Dickerson’s description of a permanent “AI Giga-cycle” and news of Samsung joining their $5 billion EPIC R&D center sent shares higher, with analysts at B. Riley raising their price target to $450.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $182.78 USD, -2.23% (-$4.16 USD), Technology. NVIDIA served as a weight on the broader market Friday as investors engaged in a bout of profit-taking ahead of its highly anticipated earnings report on February 25. Despite news that major “hyperscalers” (Meta, Google, and Microsoft) plan to spend over $600 billion on AI infrastructure in 2026, some traders are “sitting on their hands” to see if NVIDIA’s guidance can actually match the astronomical expectations. The stock was also pressured by a broader rotation into “value” sectors and a new report that OpenAI is successfully testing its first model using chips from NVIDIA rival Cerebras.

Apple Inc (AAPL): $255.78 USD, -2.27% (-$5.95 USD), Technology. Apple slid on Friday as investors reacted to reports of a significant delay in its “Siri 2.0” AI upgrade. Originally expected for a March 2026 rollout, technical hurdles have reportedly pushed the fully personalized AI features back to May, with some advanced capabilities possibly delayed until the iPhone 18 launch in September. Sentiment was further dampened by news that Apple has paused development on the next-gen Vision Pro to pivot toward smart glasses following sluggish holiday sales (estimated at just 45,000 units). Additionally, the FTC and UK regulators intensified their focus on Apple News and App Store “duopoly” practices, adding a layer of regulatory risk to the company’s high-margin Services segment.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $325.17 USD, -1.81% (-$6.00 USD), Technology. Broadcom pulled back on Friday as investors weighed the “margin vs. growth” trade-off in its AI segment. While the company recently highlighted a staggering $73 billion AI-related backlog and a major custom chip win with OpenAI, management’s hint at a slight 100-basis point dip in gross margins—due to the lower-margin nature of its fast-growing XPU (custom accelerator) business—has created some short-term caution. Despite the dip, institutional conviction remains high, with Cathie Wood’s ARK Invest reportedly adding nearly 90,000 shares this week. Analysts, including those at Wolfe Research, remain bullish, pointing to Broadcom’s role as the “secondary power grid” for AI infrastructure behind NVIDIA.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 12, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

IPG Photonics Corp (IPGP): $150.25 USD, +35.48% (+$39.35 USD), Technology. IPG Photonics rocketed to a fresh 52-week high after a blowout Q4 report that featured an 85% beat on adjusted profit ($0.46 vs. $0.25 expected). Management highlighted a powerful recovery in China’s battery manufacturing sector and record demand for its CROSSBOW laser defense system. Investors were further emboldened by a new $100 million share buyback and Q1 guidance that surpassed analyst estimates.

Sphere Entertainment Co (SPHR): $115.72 USD, +22.07% (+$20.92 USD), Consumer Discretionary. SPHR shares hit an all-time high after a massive Q4 earnings beat. The company reported an EPS of $1.23—shattering the consensus estimate of a $0.30 loss. Revenue grew 28% to $394.3 million, fueled by the staggering success of the “The Wizard of Oz at Sphere” experience, which alone has generated over $260 million in ticket sales.

Madison Square Garden Entertainment Corp (MSGE): $60.15 USD, +1.67% (+$0.99 USD), Consumer Discretionary. MSGE shares rose on Thursday, buoyed by the halo effect of its sister company’s (SPHR) blowout earnings. The rally was supported by a recent price target hike to $74 from Guggenheim and a multi-year digital partnership expansion with Infosys. While MSGE recently missed EPS estimates due to management transition costs, its core “Christmas Spectacular” production saw record-breaking attendance of 1.2 million tickets, its highest in 25 years.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.68 CAD, +4.62% (+$0.03 CAD), Healthcare Technology. Healwell shares gained ground following a comprehensive corporate update highlighting its transition to a unified, enterprise-grade AI powerhouse. The company successfully integrated its Khure and Pentavere capabilities into a single engine powered by DARWEN™. Investors were particularly buoyed by the announced North American launch of Amadeus AI in 1H-26 and the deployment of “Smart” features (Search, Summary, ID) within the Orion Health platform, signaling a robust roadmap for upsell and cross-sell opportunities.

Fastly Inc (FSLY): $16.04 USD, +72.29% (+$6.73 USD), Technology. Fastly delivered a historic “inflection point” session, nearly doubling its market value after reporting record Q4 results that shattered expectations. Revenue surged to $172.6 million, but the primary catalyst was a 55% jump in Remaining Performance Obligations (RPO). Analysts highlighted that the massive bandwidth requirements of the Seedance 2.0 video ecosystem are driving unprecedented global traffic to Fastly’s edge cloud platform.

Iridium Communications Inc (IRDM): $22.39 USD, +21.29% (+$3.93 USD), Technology. Iridium shares rocketed after the company reported Q4 earnings that beat analyst estimates and issued a highly bullish outlook for its Iridium NTN Direct (5G direct-to-device) service. CEO Matt Desch highlighted that 2026 will be a “transitional year of growth” as the company targets $200 million in new revenue from its satellite IoT and PNT (Positioning, Navigation, and Timing) services by the end of the decade.

Cognex Corp (CGNX): $58.67 USD, +36.35% (+$15.64 USD), Technology. Cognex shares achieved a spectacular breakout to a 52-week high after the machine vision leader reported adjusted EPS of $0.27, beating estimates by 35%. Management confirmed that their AI-powered “edge learning” sensors are seeing record adoption in automated logistics and manufacturing. The surge was further supported by a new $500 million share repurchase program and bullish 2026 guidance.

Zebra Technologies Corp (ZBRA): $274.15 USD, +8.58% (+$21.65 USD), Technology. Zebra shares rallied sharply as the company signaled a definitive end to the post-pandemic hardware slump. While EPS of $4.33 matched estimates, revenue of $1.48 billion topped expectations. The market was particularly energized by a newly authorized $1 billion share buyback program and CEO Bill Burns’ commentary on the accelerating shift toward AI-driven asset intelligence in global supply chains.

Sun Life Financial Inc (SLF): $93.64 CAD, +6.32% (+$5.57 CAD), Financials. Sun Life led the TSX “Value Rally” as investors sought refuge in high-quality earnings. The insurer reported a massive Q4 net income of $722 million—nearly tripling the previous year’s performance—fueled by explosive growth in its Asian health segments and its asset management division. The jump solidified SLF as a primary “safe harbor” for capital rotating out of volatile tech sectors.

Keyera Corp (KEY): $51.03 CAD, +3.97% (+$1.95 CAD), Energy. Keyera shares closed at a record high following the release of its 2025 year-end results and a highly positive 2026 outlook. Despite an EPS miss ($0.39 vs $0.45 expected) caused by a temporary outage at its AEF facility, investors focused on record annual realized margins in its Gathering and Processing and Liquids Infrastructure segments. The stock was buoyed by the reaffirmed 7–8% EBITDA growth target through 2027 and excitement surrounding the pending acquisition of Plains’ Canadian NGL business.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $186.94 USD, -1.64% (-$3.11 USD), Technology. NVIDIA shares edged lower on Thursday as institutional investors like SCS Capital Management recalibrated their holdings ahead of the highly anticipated February 25 earnings report. Despite the slight dip, sentiment remains overwhelmingly bullish; the company recently cited $500 billion in cumulative revenue visibility from its Blackwell and Rubin platforms through late 2026, though a “death cross” technical signal from 2025 continues to prompt some short-term caution.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $331.17 USD, -3.38% (-$11.59 USD), Technology. Broadcom shares faced selling pressure as investors reacted to recent massive insider selling, including a ~$128 million disposal by Director Henry Samueli. While the company launched a new Wi-Fi 8 platform for the AI edge, technical “risky pattern” warnings and institutional trimming outweighed the bullish long-term analyst consensus.

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $417.07 USD, -2.62% (-$11.20 USD), Consumer Discretionary. Tesla shares faced pressure on Thursday as investors weighed a significant global sales leadership shake-up and disappointing January registration data from Europe, which showed sharp declines in key markets like Norway and the Netherlands. While the company elevated Joe Ward to oversee global sales, concerns regarding 2026 delivery targets and a narrowing product portfolio (following the discontinuation of Model S/X) weighed on sentiment.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $129.13 USD, -4.83% (-$6.55 USD), Technology. Despite receiving a notable DISA authorization to expand its AI Platform (AIP) to “tactical edge” hardware, Palantir shares fell sharply. The decline was fueled by a broader rotation out of expensive AI software and a high-profile bearish report from Michael Burry, who questioned the current AI investment cycle and valuation multiples (P/E ~205) despite the company’s 70% revenue growth.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.10 USD, -7.45% (-$0.33 USD), Technology. BigBear.ai shares tumbled as the stock broke below key moving averages, fueled by a 20% year-over-year revenue decline and a $9.4M adjusted EBITDA loss. A new investor alert from Pomerantz Law Firm regarding a potential class-action investigation added to the selling pressure, overshadowing the company’s recent push into airport biometrics.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $45.49 USD, -3.70% (-$1.75 USD), Energy. Occidental shares tumbled as analysts aggressively slashed their Q4 earnings estimates. The consensus EPS for the upcoming February 18 report was revised downward by 44.8% over the last 30 days to just $0.19—a 76% decline year-over-year. While the company recently closed its $9.7 billion sale of OxyChem to Berkshire Hathaway to pay down debt, the market reacted poorly to the lost free cash flow from that high-margin business during a period of lower realized oil prices ($60/bbl vs $70/bbl last year).

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $13.99 USD, -10.15% (-$1.58 USD), Utilities. NuScale shares plummeted on Thursday following a major downgrade from TD Cowen, moving the stock from Buy to Hold. The analyst warned that the company’s first commercial SMR project in Romania (Doicesti) faces significant risks and could be delayed until 2034—four years later than previously expected—pushing the timeline for profitability much further into the future.

Intel Corp (INTC): $46.48 USD, -3.75% (-$1.81 USD), Technology. Intel shares dipped on Thursday as the market digested a “Neutral” initiation from DA Davidson with a $45 price target. While Intel has surged over 114% in the past year, analysts expressed caution regarding the “hardest reset in semiconductor history,” noting that high valuation multiples and ongoing foundry transition risks currently outweigh the excitement over its 18A process mass production.

Cameco Corp (CCJ): $116.39 USD, -2.34% (-$2.79 USD), Energy/Utilities. Cameco shares pulled back on Thursday in anticipation of its Q4 2025 earnings release scheduled for Friday morning. Despite the dip, the long-term outlook remains strong following a major U.S. government partnership to finance Westinghouse reactors, and Zacks currently maintains a “Strong Buy” rating with a project EPS increase of 11.54%.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 11, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

Micron Technology Inc (MU): $410.34 USD, +9.94% (+$37.09 USD), Technology. Micron shares surged Wednesday following a high-conviction presentation by CFO Mark Murphy at the Wolfe Research Conference. Murphy dismissed rumors of exclusion from Nvidia’s supply chain, confirming that the company’s next-generation HBM4 memory has entered mass production and started shipping a year ahead of schedule. Analysts fueled the rally with major price target hikes—including Morgan Stanley moving to $450 and TD Cowen set at a Street-high $600—citing an insatiable AI-driven memory shortage that has already “sold out” Micron’s supply through 2026. The stock closed near record highs as investors prioritized hardware leaders with proven pricing power.

Exxon Mobil Corp (XOM): $155.56 USD, +2.62% (+$3.97 USD), Energy. Exxon shares rose Wednesday as Energy became the S&P 500’s top-performing sector following a jump in oil prices and strong U.S. jobs data. The rally was further supported by a Mizuho price target increase to $140 and a general “buy” sentiment from analysts following the company’s recent record-breaking production results in the Permian and Guyana. Investors are also eyeing the upcoming February 12 dividend record date for a $1.03 per share payout, as the company continues its aggressive $20 billion buyback program through 2026.

Tenet Healthcare Corp (THC): $226.35 USD, +17.26% (+$33.31 USD), Healthcare. Tenet shares surged to an all-time high Wednesday after Q4 earnings ($4.70 EPS) crushed the $4.02 analyst estimate. Growth was driven by high-acuity surgical volumes and improved margins in its USPI ambulatory segment. Despite a projected $250 million headwind from expiring insurance subsidies, management issued a bullish 2026 outlook and a new $1.9 billion deal to regain full control of its Conifer unit, triggering several price target hikes.

Vertiv Holdings Co (VRT): $248.51 USD, +24.49% (+$48.89 USD), Industrials. Vertiv stock skyrocketed following an explosive Q4 report featuring a 252% year-over-year surge in organic orders. The data center cooling specialist reported a record $15 billion backlog and issued a bullish 2026 outlook, forecasting organic sales growth of up to 29%. Analysts immediately raised price targets, citing an accelerating “AI power supercycle” that is driving insatiable demand for Vertiv’s high-density infrastructure.

Aehr Test Systems (AEHR): $33.85 USD, +26.16% (+$7.02 USD), Technology. Aehr shares soared after securing a massive production order for its Sonoma systems from a premier large-scale data center provider. The order is for package-level test and burn-in of next-generation AI processors used in data center training. CEO Gayn Erickson called the deal a “key production win,” with expectations for a very large expansion of system purchases in the second half of 2026. The stock closed near its 52-week high as investors validated Aehr’s role in the AI infrastructure build-out.

Lundin Mining Corp (LUN): $36.01 CAD, +4.62% (+$1.59 CAD), Basic Materials. Lundin Mining shares climbed Wednesday after a wave of bullish analyst updates and price target hikes. Citigroup, Stifel Nicolaus, and Ci Capital all raised their targets (to as high as C$41.00), citing strong copper production results and a positive outlook for the Vicuña project. Sentiment was further bolstered by a recent “provisional pricing” windfall of approximately $83 million from prior period copper and gold sales. With Q4 earnings scheduled for February 19, investors are increasingly optimistic about the company’s 2026 production guidance and its status as a top-tier copper growth play.

SanDisk Corp (SNDK): $599.34 USD, +10.65% (+$57.70 USD), Technology. SanDisk shares soared Wednesday as the “memory supercycle” continues to drive record valuations. The rally was fueled by a Goldman Sachs report projecting a severe NAND and DRAM undersupply through 2027, which is expected to keep pricing and margins at cycle highs. Following its 2025 spinoff from Western Digital, SanDisk has become a premier AI infrastructure play; analysts recently raised price targets to $750, citing “sold out” status for enterprise SSDs and a 61% year-over-year revenue surge. Despite high volatility and a staggering 1,500% gain over the past year, the stock closed near its daily high as demand for AI data center storage remains insatiable.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $47.24 USD, +2.10% (+$0.97 USD), Energy. Occidental shares gained Wednesday as options activity spiked ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings release on February 18. The stock was supported by continued optimism surrounding its balance sheet repair, following the recent $9.7 billion sale of OxyChem to Berkshire Hathaway. Investors are focusing on management’s plan to reduce principal debt below $15 billion, which is expected to save the company over $350 million in annual interest expenses. Despite a cautious “Hold” consensus from analysts due to volatile crude prices, the stock hit a monthly high as the market priced in improved cash flow flexibility for 2026.

Intel Corp (INTC): $48.29 USD, +2.46% (+$1.16 USD), Technology. Intel shares rose Wednesday as the broader semiconductor sector rallied on massive AI infrastructure spending forecasts from cloud giants like Amazon. The stock’s gains were further supported by reports of a $100 million investment in AI startup SambaNova Systems and optimism surrounding Intel’s new Panther Lake processors. Despite recent supply constraints in China that have caused some volatility, investors are increasingly betting on Intel’s “18A” manufacturing node to regain market share from rivals in the second half of 2026.

Chevron Corp (CVX): $185.82 USD, +1.95% (+$3.56 USD), Energy. Chevron shares hit a record closing high Wednesday, buoyed by a sector-wide energy rally and news of its return to Libya’s onshore oil sector with a new block award in the Sirte Basin. The stock also benefited from a “dividend bump” effect, as investors look toward the February 17 record date for its newly increased $1.78 quarterly payout. While some analysts maintain a “Hold” due to high valuation multiples (P/E of 27x), others like BMO Capital raised price targets to $190, citing Chevron’s “fortress” balance sheet and strategic expansion in North Africa and the Eastern Mediterranean.

Cenovus Energy Inc (CVE): $29.90 CAD, +4.00% (+$1.15 CAD), Energy. Cenovus shares rallied Wednesday as investors anticipated the company’s Q4 earnings report, set for release on February 19. The stock hit a multi-year high, supported by rising crude prices and market optimism following the closing of its MEG Energy acquisition. Analysts are focused on the projected 15–20% production growth for 2026 and management’s plan to return 100% of excess free cash flow to shareholders as net debt targets are met.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.43 USD, -2.85% (-$0.13 USD), Technology. BigBear.ai shares closed lower Wednesday, continuing a period of volatility as the stock tests key technical support levels near $4.30. While the company has recently strengthened its balance sheet by converting $125 million in debt, investors remain cautious due to persistent revenue declines and an upcoming special stockholder meeting on February 18 regarding an increase in authorized shares. The decline reflects a broader market pivot away from speculative AI players toward companies with clearer near-term profitability, despite BigBear’s recent strategic partnerships with the Kraft Group and AD Ports.

Unity Software Inc (U): $21.41 USD, -26.34% (-$7.65 USD), Technology. Unity shares plummeted despite a Q4 earnings beat, as investors were spooked by a weak 2026 outlook and Intensifying competition. The company’s Q1 revenue and EBITDA guidance missed analyst estimates due to contracting margins and a decline in its legacy ironSource network. Sentiment was further soured by “existential” fears following the reveal of Google’s Project Genie 3, a generative AI tool that could potentially disrupt Unity’s core game engine business. By the close, the stock had erased all February gains, hitting a multi-month low.

CRISPR Therapeutics AG (CRSP): $48.32 USD, -1.04% (-$0.51 USD), Healthcare. CRISPR shares slipped Wednesday as investors digested mixed sentiment ahead of its full Q4 earnings release. While the company has seen strong demand for its gene-editing therapy Casgevy, concerns persist over the slow commercial rollout and high costs. The stock remains under pressure as the market weighs an undervalued pipeline against significant regulatory and competition-based risks in 2026.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $15.57 USD, -6.99% (-$1.17 USD), Industrials. NuScale shares tumbled Wednesday following a TD Cowen downgrade from “Buy” to “Hold.” Analyst Marc Bianchi warned that a critical nuclear project in Romania faces potential delays, pushing its start date from 2030 to as late as 2034. The downgrade also highlighted new approval conditions that shift more financial and performance risk onto NuScale. As the company’s first commercial test case, the delay raised broader concerns about NuScale’s path to profitability and its viability for other global utility customers.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 10, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $425.21 USD, +1.89% (+$7.89 USD), Consumer Cyclical. Tesla shares rose for a third consecutive session on Tuesday, outperforming other “Magnificent Seven” peers during a mixed day for tech. The rally was fueled by a combination of bullish energy-sector commentary and operational leadership changes. Morgan Stanley released a note highlighting that Tesla’s plan to add 100 gigawatts of solar manufacturing capacity could boost the equity value of its energy business by up to $50 billion, positioning it as a vertically integrated energy giant. Additionally, sentiment was bolstered by the promotion of Joe Ward (formerly head of EMEA) to lead global sales and delivery, a move seen as a strategic effort to combat slowing EV demand in the U.S. and Europe. Investors also reacted positively to news of potential $165 million in California incentives for the Tesla Semi, helping the stock stabilize after a period of post-earnings volatility.

Cipher Mining Inc (CIFR): $17.10 USD, +2.03% (+$0.34 USD), Financials. Cipher Mining shares continued their ascent on Tuesday, building on Monday’s massive 14% rally. The primary catalyst was a bullish initiation from Morgan Stanley, which tagged the stock with an “Overweight” rating and a $38.00 price target—implying a 127% upside. Analysts highlighted Cipher’s successful pivot from a pure-play Bitcoin miner to an AI infrastructure specialist, particularly noting its 3.4-gigawatt pipeline and the 15-year lease agreement with Amazon Data Services for its Black Pearl facility in Texas. Investor confidence was further bolstered by the pricing of a $2 billion senior secured notes offering (set to close Feb. 11), which provides the long-term capital necessary to complete its high-performance computing (HPC) data center expansion.

Ferrari NV (RACE): $363.22 USD, +8.06% (+$27.09 USD), Consumer Cyclical. Ferrari shares accelerated after the luxury carmaker posted a fourth-quarter earnings beat and issued an upbeat outlook for 2026. The company reported a record €1.5 billion in industrial free cash flow for 2025—a 50% year-over-year increase—and noted that its order book is so robust it now extends into late 2027. Investors were particularly cheered by the 2026 guidance, which targets revenues of €7.5 billion and an EBITDA margin of 39%, effectively hitting its long-term strategic targets a full year ahead of schedule. Adding to the momentum, Ferrari teased images of its first fully electric model, the Luce, ahead of a global reveal in May, signaling a confident stride into electrification without compromising its legendary exclusivity.

Shopify Inc (SHOP): $172.54 CAD, +7.41% (+$11.90 CAD), Technology. Shopify shares surged on Tuesday as investors positioned themselves ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings report scheduled for Wednesday morning. The rally was primarily sparked by an upgrade from MoffettNathanson, which moved the stock from “Neutral” to “Buy” with a $150 USD price target ($210 CAD equivalent). The analyst dismissed recent market fears that AI would disrupt Shopify’s business model, instead arguing that Shopify is a primary winner in the “AI commerce wars” due to its agentic commerce tools and integration with OpenAI and Google. Further support came from Citizens and RBC Capital, who both reiterated “Outperform” ratings, citing expectations for a significant beat in Gross Merchandise Volume (GMV) driven by a strong holiday season and increasing enterprise market share

WELL Health Technologies Corp (WELL): $4.06 CAD, +1.25% (+$0.05 CAD), Healthcare. WELL Health shares edged higher as the company continues to execute its 2026 “capital allocation” strategy, which recently included the strategic acquisition of a leading e-consult platform and several primary care clinics in Alberta. Investors are responding positively to management’s shift toward the higher-margin Canadian market and the potential for a WELLSTAR IPO (its software subsidiary) later this year. While the stock has faced historical pressure, analysts remain overwhelmingly bullish with a consensus “Buy” rating, citing the company’s path to $1.5 billion in annual revenue and its growing role as a dominant digital health provider in North America.

Oracle Corp (ORCL): $159.89 USD, +2.11% (+$3.30 USD), Technology. Oracle shares gained momentum after DA Davidson upgraded the stock to “Buy” with a $180 price target, citing the company’s validating role in the AI infrastructure race. The boost was further supported by the launch of new role-based AI agents within the Oracle Fusion Cloud suite, designed to automate complex tasks in sales and marketing. While the stock has faced pressure recently due to a massive $45–$50 billion capital raising plan to fund data center expansions for clients like OpenAI and NVIDIA, Tuesday’s move suggests investor confidence is returning as these massive investments begin to manifest in tangible product offerings and a record $523 billion backlog.

Masco Corp (MAS): $77.82 USD, +8.67% (+$6.21 USD), Industrials. Masco shares climbed after the company reported fourth-quarter adjusted earnings of $0.82 per share, topping analyst estimates of $0.79. While total revenue slightly missed expectations due to a cooling DIY paint market, investors focused on the company’s resilient Plumbing Products segment—which saw a 5% sales increase—and an optimistic 2026 outlook. Management’s guidance for 2026 adjusted EPS of $4.10 to $4.30 came in ahead of consensus, further bolstered by a newly authorized $2 billion share repurchase program and a 3% increase in the quarterly dividend.

Spotify Technology SA (SPOT): $476.02 USD, +14.75% (+$61.18 USD), Technology. Spotify shares soared after delivering a “clean beat and raise” for its Q4 earnings. The company reported record-breaking growth, adding 38 million monthly active users (MAUs) to reach a total of 751 million, while premium subscribers grew 10% to 290 million. Despite recent price hikes, churn remained low, and gross margins hit a historic high of 33.1%. Investors were particularly impressed by the company’s surging profitability—with operating income jumping 47%—and a strong Q1 2026 outlook that signaled continued pricing power and disciplined cost management under its new leadership structure.

Datadog Inc (DDOG): $129.67 USD, +13.74% (+$15.66 USD), Technology. Datadog shares surged following a robust Q4 earnings beat where the company reported a 29% year-over-year revenue increase to $953 million. Growth was heavily driven by the rapid adoption of generative AI and cloud security products, with the company noting that its large customer base (those with $1M+ in annual recurring revenue) grew by 30% over the past year. Analysts highlighted the successful general availability launch of Bits AI SRE Agent and strong free cash flow margins as key indicators of the company’s scaling dominance in AI-powered observability.

Unity Software Inc (U): $29.06 USD, +5.56% (+$1.53 USD), Technology. Unity shares jumped on Tuesday after Oppenheimer upgraded the stock from “Perform” to “Outperform” with a $38 price target. Analyst Martin Yang dismissed recent market fears that AI “world models,” such as Google’s Project Genie, would displace game engines, calling those concerns “fundamentally misplaced” and viewing AI instead as a productivity-boosting tool for the platform. Investor sentiment was further lifted by the appointment of gaming veteran Bernard Kim (CEO of Match Group) to Unity’s Board of Directors, as well as anticipation for the company’s Q4 earnings report. The move reflects a growing consensus that Unity’s Grow segment (powered by its Vector AI engine) is re-accelerating, positioning the company as a primary beneficiary of AI deployment rather than its victim.

BlackBerry Ltd (BB): $4.77 CAD, +1.49% (+$0.07 CAD), Technology. BlackBerry shares saw a modest lift on Tuesday as the company’s pivot toward high-growth automotive software continues to gain traction. The sentiment was buoyed by recent updates from the Consumer Electronics Show (CES), where BlackBerry highlighted its growing QNX backlog of $865 million and the launch of “Alloy Kore,” a new software platform for software-defined vehicles. While the broader stock has faced pressure due to a 10% year-over-year decline in its legacy Cybersecurity segment, investors are increasingly focused on the 15% growth in QNX royalties and the company’s achievement of three consecutive quarters of positive net income. Analysts also noted that co-founders Mike Lazaridis and Douglas Fregin made headlines Tuesday with a new investment in Railtown AI, subtly reminding the market of BlackBerry’s deep-rooted AI and engineering pedigree.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $188.59 USD, -0.79% (-$1.50 USD), Technology. NVIDIA shares edged lower as the market continued to digest a broader rotation out of semiconductor heavyweights. Despite its $4.5 trillion valuation, the stock faced minor pressure from profit-taking and concerns over “capex digestion” by major cloud providers. Analysts noted that while demand for the upcoming Rubin architecture remains high, investors are increasingly sensitive to any signs of normalized growth following the explosive gains of the past two years.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $139.45 USD, -2.44% (-$3.49 USD), Technology. Palantir slid as valuation skepticism weighed on the stock. Despite a strong Q4 earnings beat last week, the stock’s premium multiple (trading at over 200x trailing earnings) led to a “sell the news” reaction. Investors appear to be rotating toward safer assets as economic uncertainty persists, overshadowing the company’s 70% year-over-year revenue growth in its AIP and Foundry platforms.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $340.44 USD, -1.02% (-$3.50 USD), Technology. Broadcom shares dipped during a quiet trading session for the networking giant. The decline was attributed to institutional trimming and a 34% drop in trading volume compared to its daily average. While long-term sentiment remains bullish due to its dominance in custom AI silicon (TPUs) for Google and Meta, the stock was caught in the general software and chip-sector cooling.

NuScale Power Corp (SMR): $16.75 USD, -5.26% (-$0.93 USD), Industrials. NuScale shares tumbled after Zacks Investment Research issued a “Strong Sell” rating, citing execution risks and a “stretched” valuation. The market is growing wary of the massive upfront capital required for its 72-reactor deployment with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) before significant revenue is realized. The stock has now plunged over 50% in the last six months as it struggles to maintain momentum against competitors like GE Vernova.

Centrus Energy Corp (LEU): $264.99 USD, -4.07% (-$11.25 USD), Energy. Centrus shares fell sharply after the company reported an adjusted earnings miss for Q4, posting $0.79 per share against the consensus estimate of $1.42. While the company celebrated a $900 million HALEU production award from the DOE and a $2.3 billion backlog, the immediate bottom-line disappointment triggered a sell-off. Investors are now looking toward today’s (Wednesday) earnings call for clarity on the timeline for its centrifuge manufacturing scale-up.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 9, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $190.04 USD, +2.50% (+$4.63 USD), Technology. NVIDIA gained ground today as the market prices in a “super-cycle” of AI infrastructure spending. Sentiment was fueled by Amazon’s recent commitment to invest $200 billion in data centers this year and news that Apollo Global Management is nearing a $3.4 billion deal to finance NVIDIA chips for Elon Musk’s xAI. Investors are also positioning themselves ahead of NVIDIA’s high-stakes earnings report scheduled for February 25, 2026.

AppLovin Corp (APP): $460.69 USD, +13.19% (+$53.98 USD), Technology. AppLovin shares surged following a blockbuster earnings report where the company showcased massive growth in its AI-driven advertising engine, AXON 2.0. Analysts raised price targets across the board, citing the company’s increasing dominance in mobile gaming monetization.

Oracle Corp (ORCL): $156.61 USD, +9.65% (+$13.78 USD), Technology. Oracle jumped nearly 10%, recovering from a recent sector-wide slump. The rally was sparked by a major upgrade from top-tier analysts who highlighted Oracle’s massive cloud infrastructure backlog and its unique positioning to handle the “next wave” of enterprise generative AI deployments.

Valaris Ltd (VAL): $83.82 USD, +34.31% (+$21.41 USD), Energy. Valaris skyrocketed today following the announcement of a definitive agreement to be acquired by Transocean Ltd (RIG) in an all-stock deal valued at approximately $5.8 billion. The merger creates an offshore drilling titan with a combined enterprise value of $17 billion and a massive $10 billion backlog. Under the terms, Valaris shareholders will receive 15.235 Transocean shares for each share of VAL, representing a significant premium that ignited the stock’s rally.

BigBear.ai Holdings Inc (BBAI): $4.87 USD, +3.18% (+$0.15 USD), Technology. BigBear.ai edged higher today as investors continue to digest the company’s aggressive deleveraging strategy, which recently saw $125 million in convertible notes wiped from the balance sheet. Positive sentiment was further bolstered by the growing user base of its newly integrated Ask Sage platform, which now serves over 100,000 government and commercial users, positioning BBAI as a leaner, more scalable AI competitor in the defense sector.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR) closed at $142.94 USD, up 5.18% (+$7.04 USD), in the technology sector. The stock surged as part of a broad tech rebound, with investors returning to established AI leaders following a recent sector-wide sell-off. Sentiment remains highly bullish after last week’s record earnings report, in which Palantir guided for 61% revenue growth in 2026. Analysts have called Palantir a “Conclusive AI Winner,” citing its unmatched ability to convert complex workflows into automated, high-margin operations for both U.S. government agencies and commercial enterprises.

ServiceNow Inc (NOW): $103.87 USD, +3.11% (+$3.13 USD), Technology. ServiceNow climbed today as investors began “buying the dip” after a 30% sector-wide software sell-off that had left the stock at historically low valuations. Wedbush analysts characterized the recent decline as excessive, reiterating that ServiceNow’s Now Assist and AI Control Tower platforms are indispensable orchestration layers for the enterprise AI revolution. Institutional buyers were particularly encouraged by the company’s accelerating AI monetization, which is on track to hit $1 billion in annual contract value by the end of 2026.

Shopify Inc (SHOP): $160.64 CAD, +4.95% (+$7.58 CAD), Technology. Shopify shares climbed as investors positioned themselves ahead of tomorrow’s (February 11, 2026) highly anticipated Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings report. Sentiment was boosted by a pre-earnings “Buy” reiteration from Scotiabank and Citizens, with analysts expecting the company to exceed its mid-to-high 20% revenue growth guidance. Bullishness is also being driven by the successful integration of “Agentic Commerce” tools into the Winter Edition 2026 update, allowing merchants to leverage AI agents for autonomous sales and support.

B2Gold Corp (BTO): $7.61 CAD, +3.12% (+$0.23 CAD), Basic Materials. B2Gold shares rallied on Tuesday following a wave of bullish analyst revisions and key operational updates. Scotiabank notably raised its price target for the stock to $10.00 CAD (from $8.00), while Raymond James and CIBC also boosted their targets, citing a brightening outlook for the gold producer. Investor sentiment was further bolstered by the successful commercial production ramp-up at the Goose Mine in Nunavut, which is expected to contribute 250,000 ounces of gold in 2026. This operational milestone, combined with a broader institutional pivot toward gold as a hedge—with some major banks now projecting gold prices to exceed $6,000/oz by the end of the year—has positioned B2Gold as a top pick for value-seeking investors in the mining sector.

Kinross Gold Corp (K): $46.50 CAD, +1.04% (+$0.48 CAD), Basic Materials. Kinross Gold shares rose on Tuesday, outperforming several large-cap mining peers as the sector gained momentum from gold prices testing the $5,000/oz threshold. The stock received a significant boost from Stifel Nicolaus, which raised its price target to $65.00 CAD (up from $45.00) while maintaining a “Buy” rating. Investors are showing increased confidence in Kinross’s U.S. growth pipeline—specifically the Round Mountain Phase X and Curlew projects—which are projected to deliver high internal rates of return. The rally comes just ahead of the company’s Q4 earnings and 2026 guidance release scheduled for February 18, with analysts expecting strong free cash flow yields driven by record-high bullion prices.

Nektar Therapeutics (NKTR): $56.00 USD, +51.07% (+$18.93 USD), Healthcare. Nektar shares skyrocketed after the company released “blockbuster” 52-week maintenance data from its Phase 2b REZOLVE-AD study for rezpegaldesleukin (RezPEG), a treatment for moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis. The data revealed that up to 83% of patients maintained significant skin clearance (EASI-75) with quarterly dosing, and the drug showed a massive 5-fold increase in patients achieving completely clear skin (EASI-100) between weeks 16 and 52. Analysts at BTIG immediately raised their price target to $151.00, citing RezPEG’s potential as a first-line treatment that could rival multi-billion dollar drugs like Dupixent. The rally was so strong it largely overshadowed the company’s concurrent announcement of a $300 million public offering to fund the upcoming Phase 3 trials.

Canadian National Railway Co (CNR): $143.77 CAD, +2.59% (+$3.63 CAD), Industrials. CN Rail shares climbed on Tuesday as the company benefited from a “risk-off” rotation, with investors pivoting away from volatile tech stocks and into defensive, beaten-down value plays. The stock was a primary focus for analysts following its recent 3% dividend hike—marking 30 consecutive years of increases—and the launch of a new buyback program to repurchase up to 24 million shares. While the company issued cautious 2026 guidance due to ongoing North American trade uncertainty, investors were encouraged by a projected $500 million reduction in capital spending, which is expected to significantly boost free cash flow. Improved operational metrics, including a 16.6% increase in weekly revenue ton-miles, further signaled that the railway is effectively navigating a challenging macroeconomic environment.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

General Motors Co (GM): $80.68 USD, -4.23% (-$3.56 USD), Consumer Discretionary. GM shares pulled back today after a record-breaking run earlier in the month. While the company recently hit all-time highs on the back of a $6 billion buyback and a 20% dividend hike, today’s decline reflects investor nerves regarding a $7.2 billion charge related to scaling back EV production. Despite strong 2026 guidance, the “pivot back to ICE” (Internal Combustion Engine) strategy is causing some near-term volatility as the market recalibrates GM’s long-term capital expenditure needs.

Ford Motor Co (F): $13.59 USD, -1.52% (-$0.21 USD), Consumer Discretionary. Ford shares dipped slightly today as the market braces for its Q4 earnings report, scheduled for release after the closing bell. Investors are weighing a massive $19.5 billion restructuring charge tied to its pivot away from the all-electric F-150 Lightning toward hybrid and “Extended Range” (EREV) models. While the stock has seen seven straight days in the red, some bulls view the current price as a value play given Ford’s new focus on the high-margin Ford Energy and Ford Pro software segments.

Healwell AI Inc (AIDX): $0.70 CAD, -4.73% (-$0.035 CAD), Healthcare. Healwell AI shares dipped today as the company approaches its Q4 2025 earnings release. While the firm recently reached a milestone of positive Adjusted EBITDA ($0.7M) and maintains an annualized revenue run-rate of $120M, investors remain cautious about its cash runway and recent dilution. The stock is currently testing a critical support level at $0.70, with analysts closely watching for updates on its Orion Health integration to drive the next leg of growth.

American Bitcoin Corp (ABTC): $1.26 USD, -3.82% (-$0.05 USD), Financial Services. ABTC shares edged lower today, following a broader decline in the crypto-mining sector as Bitcoin continues to struggle below the $70,000 threshold. The stock has faced persistent pressure since late 2025, when a massive tranche of newly unlocked shares hit the market. Despite recent “Buy” ratings from analysts at HC Wainwright, investors remain wary of ABTC’s high correlation with Bitcoin’s spot price and the rising operational costs of mining in a high-hashrate environment.

 
 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 05, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

McKesson Corp (MCK): $957.80 USD, +16.52% (+$135.80 USD), Healthcare. McKesson hit a record closing high today. The stock surged after the company raised its full-year guidance and announced a strategic acquisition of a controlling stake in PRISM Vision Holdings to bolster its oncology segment.

Celestica Inc (CLS): $400.89 CAD, +6.48% (+$24.38 CAD), Electronic Manufacturing. Celestica rallied strongly today as investors shook off earlier concerns regarding Google shifting its TPU supply chain. The stock found support following a series of analyst upgrades, including a new “Buy” rating from Bank of America with a $400 USD target, citing Celestica’s dominant position in the “white-box” switch market and its essential role in Alphabet’s projected $175B+ AI infrastructure buildout.

Kulicke & Soffa (KLIC): $66.40 USD, +19.27% (+$10.73 USD), Semiconductor Equip. KLIC shares soared following a “beat and raise” quarter where revenue grew 20% year-over-year. Investors were particularly impressed by the optimistic Q1 2026 guidance, which suggests the AI-driven demand for chip packaging equipment is accelerating.

Silicon Labs (SLAB): $205.22 USD, +0.89% (+$1.81 USD), Semiconductors. Silicon Labs hovered near 4-year highs following a massive 50% surge on Wednesday. The stock is currently being re-priced by the market after Texas Instruments (TXN) confirmed a definitive agreement to acquire the company in an all-cash deal valued at $231.00 per share ($7.5 billion). While the stock hit a ceiling near the offer price, it remains the talk of the sector as arbitrageurs trade the remaining spread.

Semtech Corp (SMTC): $83.20 USD, +1.61% (+$1.32 USD), Semiconductors. Semtech hit a new 52-week high of $90.09 during intraday trading today. While it pared some gains by the close, the stock is seeing significant momentum following its showcase of new 5G RedCap routers at DistribuTECH 2026 and continued optimism surrounding its AI data center exposure.

Applied Materials Inc (AMAT): $303.99 USD, +2.15% (+$6.39 USD), Semiconductors. Applied Materials gained ground as investors anticipated its upcoming earnings report on February 12. The stock is benefiting from a “halo effect” across the chip equipment sector, fueled by Alphabet’s massive 2026 infrastructure spending plans and a recent bullish upgrade from analysts citing strong demand for AI-related wafer fabrication tools.

Micron Technology Inc (MU): $382.89 USD, +0.92% (+$3.49 USD), Semiconductors. Micron hit a record high early in the session before settling slightly. The stock is riding a massive wave of “AI memory mania” after confirming that its entire 2026 High-Bandwidth Memory (HBM) supply is already sold out. Analysts from Mizuho and Phillip Securities recently pushed price targets as high as $500, citing Micron’s power-efficiency lead in Nvidia-bound HBM3E chips.

8×8 Inc (EGHT): $2.73 USD, +11.89% (+$0.29 USD), Software/Cloud Communications. 8×8 shares spiked today as investors digested its Q3 2026 earnings beat. The rally was fueled by a massive 60% jump in usage-based revenue and a 200% increase in Voice AI interactions, signaling that the company is successfully pivoting from a traditional SaaS model to an AI-driven “pay-as-you-go” platform.

Ensign Group Inc (ENSG): $197.16 USD, +13.85% (+$23.98 USD), Healthcare. Ensign Group hit a new all-time high today after reporting a significant Q4 earnings beat and issuing aggressive 2026 guidance. Investors are cheering record occupancy rates (reaching 83.8%) and a midpoint EPS forecast for 2026 that came in nearly 10% above analyst expectations, highlighting the success of its aggressive skilled-nursing facility acquisition strategy.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

Snap Inc (SNAP): $5.12 USD, -13.37% (-$0.79 USD), Social Media. Snap crashed to a new 52-week low today as investors overlooked a revenue beat to focus on a worrying user exodus. Despite hitting $1.72B in revenue, the company lost 3 million daily active users (DAUs) this quarter. The decline was most severe in the high-monetization North American and European markets, sparking fears that the platform is losing the “attention war” to Meta and TikTok.

Fluence Energy Inc (FLNC): $18.95 USD, -34.63% (-$10.04 USD), Clean Energy/Storage. Fluence suffered a massive sell-off today, marking its worst session as a public company. Despite revenue surging 154% to $475M, the stock cratered after reporting a wider-than-expected loss of $0.34 per share. Investors were spooked by significant margin compression, with GAAP gross margins falling to just 4.9% due to $20 million in cost overruns on two major projects, casting doubt on the company’s timeline to profitability.

Hycroft Mining Holding Corp (HYMC): $33.72 USD, -14.22% (-$5.59 USD), Materials/Gold & Silver. Hycroft Mining shares continued their volatile slide today as precious metals retreated from recent record highs. After a 1,000%+ run over the past year, the stock is seeing significant profit-taking. Analysts at Simply Wall St warned today that the pre-revenue company’s valuation remains “inflated,” as it faces massive capital requirements to convert its recent high-grade Vortex silver discovery into an operational mine.

Almonty Industries Inc (ALM): $12.70 USD, -4.94% (-$0.66 USD), Materials/Tungsten. Almonty pulled back today after reaching an intraday 52-week high of $13.84. While DA Davidson recently raised its price target to $18, the stock saw profit-taking as its Relative Strength Index (RSI) touched overbought territory (74.1). Investors remain focused on the company’s Sangdong mine ramp-up and its strategic role in diversifying the global tungsten supply chain away from China.

TMC the metals company Inc (TMC): $5.65 USD, -13.48% (-$0.88 USD), Materials/Deep-Sea Mining. TMC shares fell sharply today as part of a broader “rare earth rout.” The sector-wide decline followed a Trump administration proposal to create a critical minerals trading bloc with allies that would use adjustable tariffs to maintain “price floors.” Investors reacted to the potential for increased regulatory complexity and the fact that the government’s latest direct investments (Project Vault) have favored land-based competitors like USA Rare Earth.

USA Rare Earth Inc (USAR): $20.60 USD, -12.45% (-$2.93 USD), Materials/Rare Earths. USAR shares fell sharply today as the initial euphoria over its $1.6B government funding package met the reality of the administration’s new “Tariff Floor” policy. While USAR is a primary beneficiary of “Project Vault” (the new $12B strategic stockpile), investors are cooling on the stock as the government has reportedly stepped back from offering guaranteed price subsidies. Without these guarantees, USAR—which is still pre-revenue—remains fully exposed to the risk of falling market prices for the minerals it plans to produce at its Round Top and Stillwater facilities.

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $130.01 USD, -6.83% (-$9.53 USD), Software/AI. Palantir gave back most of its post-earnings gains today as the “software-is-dead” narrative took hold of Wall Street. Despite a blowout Q4 report earlier this week showing 70% revenue growth, the stock succumbed to profit-taking and valuation concerns. Analysts noted that at 340x earnings, there is zero room for error, especially as some metrics—like customer count growth—showed a slight sequential deceleration (5% in Q4 vs 7% in Q3).

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $171.81 USD, -1.37% (-$2.38 USD),  NVDA slipped 1.37% to $171.81 as it moved lower with the broader technology and software sell-off. Despite strong long-term support from heavy AI spending by companies like Alphabet and Meta, the stock faced short-term pressure due to valuation concerns and worries that new AI software tools could eventually slow demand for AI hardware.

Amazon.com Inc (AMZN): $222.69 USD, -4.42% (-$10.30 USD), E-commerce/Cloud. Amazon shares declined during the regular session and extended losses to roughly -10% in after-hours trading following its Q4 earnings report. While revenue of $213.4 billion beat expectations, investors were “rattled” by management’s plan to spend a staggering $200 billion on capital expenditures (capex) in 2026. This massive bet on AI infrastructure and data centers, up from $125 billion in 2025, sparked concerns that aggressive spending will weigh on near-term profits and free cash flow.

 
 

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 04, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

Chevron (CVX): $181.23 USD, +1.79% (+$3.19 USD), Oil & Gas. Chevron hit a record closing high today. The stock is pumping as investors flock to its “operational excellence,” highlighted by a recent 4% dividend hike and record-breaking production levels that have neutralized the impact of fluctuating crude prices.

Exxon Mobil (XOM): $147.59 USD, +2.70% (+$3.88 USD), Oil & Gas. XOM surged following an analyst upgrade from “Strong Sell” to “Hold.” The market is reacting positively to Exxon’s aggressive expansion in Guyana and its new Voluntary Retail Voting Program, which has bolstered retail investor sentiment.

Super Micro Computer Inc (SMCI): $33.76 USD, +13.78% (+$4.09 USD), AI Hardware Supermicro (SMCI) was the undisputed heavyweight champion of the tech sector on Wednesday, February 4, 2026. After a brutal multi-month slide that saw the stock lose nearly half its value since the previous summer, the company silenced skeptics with a massive “triple-beat” earnings report. The surge confirms that the physical build-out of “AI Factories” is not just alive but accelerating.

Microsoft (MSFT): $414.19 USD, +0.72% (+$2.98 USD), Software / Cloud. Microsoft stabilized on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, carving out a modest gain after a volatile start to the year. While the broader Nasdaq faced a steep sell-off, Microsoft’s resilient enterprise ecosystem acted as a “safe haven.” Investors are currently weighing the company’s massive $37.5 billion quarterly capital expenditure (a 66% year-over-year increase) against its powerhouse $81.3 billion revenue performance. Despite a roughly 20% decline from its all-time high in late 2025, many analysts now view MSFT as a high-value “buy the dip” opportunity as the stock trades at its most attractive price-to-earnings ratio in three years.

Silicon Laboratories Inc (SLAB): $203.41 USD, +48.89% (+$66.79 USD), Semiconductors Silicon Labs (SLAB) went “vertical” on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, delivering the semiconductor sector’s most explosive single-day gain in over a decade. The stock skyrocketed after Texas Instruments (TXN) announced a definitive agreement to acquire the Austin-based chip designer in an all-cash deal valued at $7.5 billion. The takeover effectively sets a “hard floor” for the stock price at the acquisition offer of $231.00 per share, representing a massive 69% premium over its last unaffected closing price.

Eli Lilly and Co (LLY): $1,107.12 USD, +10.33% (+$103.66 USD), Healthcare. Eli Lilly (LLY) reclaimed its “Trillion Dollar” crown on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, delivering a powerhouse performance that silenced skeptics of the GLP-1 sector. While its primary rival, Novo Nordisk, saw its stock crater after warning of declining sales, Lilly surged to an all-time high. The rally was fueled by a “double-beat” fourth-quarter report and an aggressive 2026 outlook that suggests Lilly is now pulling away as the undisputed leader in the $100 billion metabolic health market.

Occidental Petroleum Corp (OXY): $46.69 USD, +3.16% (+$1.43 USD), Oil & Gas Occidental (OXY) caught a powerful tailwind on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, as the stock surged on a mixture of rising crude prices and significant structural news. The rally marks a 10.5% year-to-date gain, as “Oxy” successfully repositions itself from a traditional driller into a diversified energy and carbon management giant. With a clean balance sheet and the backing of Berkshire Hathaway, OXY is increasingly viewed as the “utility of the future” for the AI era.

DaVita Inc (DVA): $142.06 USD, +5.53% (+$7.44 USD), Healthcare Services. DaVita (DVA) extended its explosive February rally on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, climbing an additional 5.5% to reach $142.06. This follows a massive 25% surge the previous day, making it one of the top-performing S&P 500 stocks of the week. The momentum is driven by a “beat and raise” fourth-quarter report that proved the dialysis giant is successfully pivoting from a volume-based growth story to a margin-optimization powerhouse.

WELL Health Technologies Corp (WELL.TO): $4.10 CAD, +3.80% (+$0.15 CAD), Healthcare Tech WELL Health (WELL) regained its footing on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, breaking a multi-day slide to close at $4.10. The rally was ignited by a major corporate update that effectively “refilled the tank” for the company’s 2026 growth engine. By securing a massive new credit facility and closing a strategic acquisition in Alberta, WELL is doubling down on its “Click-and-Mortar” strategy, positioning itself as the dominant hybrid healthcare platform in Canada

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $139.54 USD, -11.62% (-$18.34 USD), AI Software Palantir (PLTR) suffered one of its sharpest single-day declines in recent history on Wednesday, February 4, 2026. The stock was caught in a brutal “tug-of-war” between record-breaking fundamentals and extreme valuation gravity. Despite reporting a blowout fourth quarter just 48 hours earlier, the stock was hammered by a broad rotation out of high-multiple software names and a critical hedge fund letter that labeled its current price levels as “unrealistic.”

Shopify Inc (SHOP.TO): $156.72 CAD, -3.96% (-$6.46 CAD), E-commerce / Software Shopify shares slid on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, as the “SaaS Sell-off” that rattled the Nasdaq crossed the border into the TSX. Despite the company’s strong momentum following its Winter Edition 2026 AI product launch, investors took profits ahead of next week’s high-stakes earnings report. The stock is currently caught between the excitement of its new “Agentic Commerce” tools and a broader market rotation away from companies with high price-to-earnings (P/E) multiples.

Quanta Services Inc (PWR): $464.57 USD, -4.93% (-$24.09 USD), Utilities / Infrastructure Quanta Services saw a sharp pull-back today as the broader “AI Infrastructure” trade took a breather. Despite being a primary beneficiary of the grid-hardening boom, the stock faced a wave of profit-taking after hitting a series of all-time highs in late January. Investors are also reassessing valuations ahead of the company’s February 19 earnings report, with some analysts warning that the current P/E of ~70x may have “run too far” relative to near-term cash flow projections.

Tesla Inc (TSLA): $406.01 USD, -3.78% (-$15.95 USD), Automotive / Robotics, Automotive / Robotics. Tesla (TSLA) faced significant downward pressure on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, as the stock slipped nearly 4% amid a “perfect storm” of regional sales data and broader market rotation. While CEO Elon Musk continues to pivot the company’s narrative toward a “Physical AI” future, the reality of its core automotive business in Europe sent a chill through growth-oriented portfolios today.

Trilogy Metals Inc (TMQ.TO): $7.04 CAD, -9.74% (-$0.76 CAD), Mining / Critical Minerals Trilogy Metals (TMQ) hit a “policy pothole” on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, giving back nearly all of the gains from its Tuesday rally. The stock is currently the epicenter of a political firestorm in Washington D.C., as lawmakers demand transparency regarding the federal government’s direct equity stakes in domestic mining projects. Despite the pullback, the company remains a central figure in the “Project Vault” initiative—a landmark U.S. industrial policy aimed at establishing a $12 billion strategic reserve for critical minerals.

HEALWELL AI Inc (AIDX.TO): $0.77 CAD, -2.53% (-$0.02 CAD), Healthcare AI HEALWELL AI (AIDX) saw a minor pullback on Wednesday, February 4, 2026, as the stock continued to find support near its 52-week lows. Despite the consolidation, the company remains one of the most strategically positioned micro-cap AI plays in Canada, largely due to its “privileged” connection to the global AI elite through a direct stake in Elon Musk’s xAI.

Daily Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 03, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

Palantir Technologies Inc (PLTR): $157.88 USD, +6.84% (+$10.11 USD), Software / AI Services. PLTR stunned the market with record Q4 revenue growth of 70%, defying a broader tech sell-off. The surge was driven by massive U.S. commercial demand and a bullish 2026 revenue guide of $7.2 billion, cementing its status as the “Messi of AI.”

Cameco Corp (CCO): $171.98 CAD, +4.67% (+$7.67 CAD), Uranium / Energy. Cameco rallied as uranium spot prices hit fresh 2026 highs. The stock is benefiting from a “nuclear renaissance” fueled by government deals to power AI data centers with carbon-free baseload energy.

Barrick Mining Corp (ABX): $64.85 CAD, +2.34% (+$1.48 CAD), Gold & Copper Mining. Barrick gained steady ground as gold prices hit new 2026 highs. The stock remains a foundational pick for investors hedging against “AI bubble” volatility.

United States Antimony (UAMY): $9.65 USD, +22.77% (+$1.79 USD), Mining / Critical Minerals. UAMY led a massive rally in strategic minerals following the announcement of a $12 billion federal stockpile initiative. As domestic sourcing becomes a 2026 national security priority, UAMY has turned into an institutional favorite for “on-shoring” plays.

DaVita Inc (DVA): $134.73 USD, +21.17% (+$23.54 USD), Healthcare Services. Shares skyrocketed after DVA obliterated Q4 estimates and issued a robust 2026 forecast. The jump was fueled by a relief rally as the market realized its 2025 sell-off was an overcorrection.

Critical Metals Corp (CRML): $15.15 USD, +20.33% (+$2.56 USD), Mining / Rare Earths. CRML is riding a momentum wave that has seen the stock gain nearly 90% in five weeks. Investors are betting on its Greenland project to serve as a Western counterbalance to global rare-earth monopolies.

Hycroft Mining (HYMC): $42.07 USD, +19.48% (+$6.86 USD), Gold & Silver Mining. As “Big Tech” capital rotated into hard assets, HYMC became a primary vehicle for precious metals exposure. The surge triggered a technical breakout, forcing short-sellers to cover in a classic “gamma-squeeze.”

Trilogy Metals Inc (TMQ): $5.72 USD, +15.79% (+$0.78 USD), Base & Precious Metals. TMQ gapped up on high volume following regulatory breakthroughs for the Ambler Access Road. This project is the “missing link” to unlocking the company’s multi-billion dollar copper and cobalt deposits in Alaska.

Teradyne Inc (TER): $282.98 USD, +13.41% (+$33.45 USD), Semiconductors / Automation. Defying the tech sector’s slump, Teradyne surged on “euphoric” earnings sentiment. AI infrastructure has moved to the “testing” phase, where Teradyne’s proprietary platforms hold a near-monopoly.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

FintechWerx Intl Sftwr Srvs Inc (WERX): $2.79 CAD, -8.82% (-$0.27 CAD), Software / IT Services. WERX saw a sharp decline on high volume as investors reacted to a “valuation re-check” after its massive 5,000% gain over the last year. The drop intensified in the afternoon session as the stock slipped below its recent support levels.

Broadcom Inc (AVGO): $320.33 USD, -3.26% (-$10.78 USD), Semiconductors. Broadcom faced heavy selling as investors expressed concern that booming demand for custom AI chips might squeeze the company’s overall gross margins. Despite the drop, analysts remain bullish on its long-term role in the 2026 AI infrastructure supercycle.

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $180.34 USD, -2.84% (-$5.27 USD), Semiconductors / AI. The market leader pulled back as part of a broader “Tech Rotation” into hard assets. While Palantir and Teradyne provided positive read-throughs for AI demand earlier in the week, NVDA investors appeared to be locking in gains ahead of the company’s earnings report later this month.

WELL Health Technologies Corp (WELL): $3.95 CAD, -0.50% (-$0.02 CAD), Healthcare / Digital Health. WELL saw a modest pullback on Tuesday, continuing a period of consolidation. While the decline was minor compared to the tech giants, the stock remains under pressure as investors look for a clear catalyst to break back above the $4.00 resistance level.

PayPal Holdings Inc (PYPL): $41.70 USD, -20.31% (-$10.63 USD), Fintech / Payments. PayPal plummeted to a fresh 52-week low after reporting Q4 earnings of $1.23 per share, missing the $1.29 analyst consensus. The sell-off was intensified by a weak 2026 profit outlook and the surprise news that CEO Alex Chriss will be replaced by Enrique Lores (formerly of HP) on March 1st.

Unity Software Inc (U): $25.87 USD, -10.20% (-$2.94 USD). Fell sharply as investors feared Google’s “Project Genie” (an AI world-builder) might render traditional game engines obsolete.

Roblox Corp (RBLX): $65.40 USD, -3.08% (-$2.08 USD). Under pressure from the “Genie Panic.” Markets worry that prompt-to-game AI will gut Roblox’s creator-based economy. The downturn is primarily attributed to heightened investor anxiety following the public rollout of Google’s Project Genie, an generative AI “world model” capable of creating interactive 3D environments from simple text descriptions.

Daily Market Movers: US & Canada Top Movers (Feb 02, 2026)

From today’s WebKarobar Daily Market Movers, here are the top stocks making waves:

TechCreate Group Ltd (TCGL): $172.84 USD, +100.14% (+$86.49 USD), Software / IT Services. TCGL has stunned the market with a massive triple-digit surge today. The move follows a significant contract win or structural update that has attracted intense retail and institutional volume, though the low float makes it highly volatile.

Aquestive Therapeutics Inc (AQST): $4.10 USD, +38.98% (+$1.15 USD), Pharmaceuticals / Biotech. AQST is leading the healthcare sector today as investors respond to positive regulatory updates. The company is gaining traction as it prepares for key product launches in its drug delivery pipeline.

Perspective Therapeutics Inc (CATX): $5.06 USD, +33.51% (+$1.27 USD), Medical Devices / Cancer Care. CATX shares are rallying on heavy volume following recent clinical trial milestones. As a player in the targeted radiopharmaceuticals space, it is benefiting from renewed interest in oncology-focused biotechs.

Sandisk Corp (SNDK): $665.24 USD, +15.44% (+$88.99 USD), Data Storage / Semiconductors. SNDK is seeing a major breakout today, likely driven by the broader “semiconductor rally” triggered by the historic India-US trade deal announced late yesterday, which has specifically boosted sentiment for hardware and manufacturing firms.

Twist Bioscience Corp (TWST): $46.81 USD, +13.98% (+$5.74 USD), Synthetic Biology / DNA Tools. TWST is experiencing a strong “beat and raise” sentiment today. Investors are looking favorably at its synthetic DNA manufacturing scalability as the cost of genetic sequencing continues to drop in early 2026.

Trilogy Metals Inc (TMQ): $5.39 USD, +6.94% (+$0.35 USD), Base & Precious Metals. Trilogy Metals is surging today as a prime beneficiary of the newly unveiled $12 billion “Project Vault” initiative. Investors are betting that the company’s Alaska-based Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (UKMP), particularly the copper-rich Arctic deposit, will be a high-priority target for federal stockpiling. The stock gapped up at the open ($5.22) and hit intraday highs as high-volume buying reflects renewed optimism for domestic mineral security.

Critical Metals Corp (CRML): $15.25 USD, +21.13% (+$2.66 USD), Rare Earths / Specialty Metals. CRML is seeing a powerful recovery rally today after a volatile January. The stock is reacting to the White House summit on critical minerals, which has reignited interest in its Tanbreez project in Greenland. Despite recent federal investments favoring domestic-only players like USA Rare Earth, Critical Metals is benefiting from a “rising tide” effect as the U.S. looks to build a multi-national strategic alliance to stabilize prices and secure non-Chinese sources of antimony and gallium.

WELL Health Technologies Corp (WELL.TO): $3.99 CAD, +0.76% (+$0.03 CAD), Digital Healthcare / HealthTech. WELL Health is holding steady with modest gains today as it continues to attract “value seekers” in the Canadian tech space. While the day-over-day move is subtle, the stock remains a high-conviction pick for analysts, currently trading at a significant discount to its consensus price target of $7.43 CAD. Market sentiment is being bolstered by recent CEO updates regarding the “WELLSTAR” financing and a broader pivot toward AI-integrated medical clinics which are expected to drive margin expansion throughout 2026.

FintechWerx International Sftwr Srvs Inc (WERX): $3.06 CAD, +20.95% (+$0.53 CAD), Financial Technology / Software. FintechWerx is seeing massive momentum today, continuing a recovery from its January lows. The stock is reacting to a flurry of positive news, most notably the January 30 completion of its AI-Werx Proof-of-Concept and a new payment gateway agreement with AetherEV Energy Corp. Despite being a highly volatile micro-cap, the “AI-Werx” deployment is driving speculative interest as the company aims to replace “patchwork” provider systems with its integrated onboarding and fraud mitigation platform.

📉 Top Losers – WebKarobar Daily Market Movers

Here are today’s biggest decliners from the Daily Market Movers report:

NVIDIA Corp (NVDA): $185.61 USD, −2.89% (−$5.52 USD), Semiconductors / AI Infrastructure. NVIDIA is seeing selling pressure today following reports that its anticipated $100 billion investment in OpenAI has stalled due to internal skepticism and a desire to avoid “vendor financing” risks. CEO Jensen Huang clarified that the figure was a “ceiling” rather than a commitment, leading some traders to lock in profits ahead of the February 25 earnings report. Despite the dip, it maintains a massive $4.51 trillion market cap as it consolidates near its 50-day moving average

Oracle Corp (ORCL): $160.06 USD, −2.75% (−$4.52 USD), Cloud Infrastructure / Enterprise Software. Oracle is slipping as investors weigh a massive $50 billion financing plan for cloud expansion against rising debt, which now exceeds $100 billion. The market is reacting poorly to a $20 billion equity program, contributing to a 50% decline from its September highs as the high cost of AI infrastructure hits near-term margins.

Microsoft Corp (MSFT): $423.37 USD, −1.61% (−$6.92 USD), Systems Software / Cloud Services. Microsoft is extending its slide following last week’s fiscal Q2 earnings, where a massive $37.5 billion capex spend (a 66% year-over-year jump) rattled investors. While Azure revenue grew 39%, the market is growing impatient with the high costs of AI infrastructure and the company’s heavy financial dependence on OpenAI, whose projected $14 billion loss for 2026 is creating a “drag” on Microsoft’s near-term outlook.
