Market Focus10-02

On October 2, Cipher Mining Inc. rose 5.05% in regular trading, trading at $16.28/share, with turnover of $105 million. The stock staged a sharp rebound following the prior session's 5.43% decline, which had been driven by Q2 earnings that significantly missed expectations.

In addition, multiple investment banks recently initiated coverage with favorable ratings: UBS assigned a Buy rating with a $23 price target, Wells Fargo initiated at Overweight with a $25 target, while the analyst consensus mean target stands at approximately $30.33, representing substantial upside from current levels.

Within the Application Software sector, peers showed broad strength, with IREN up 6.86%, Strategy up 3.67%, Circle Internet up 2.71%, and Palantir Technologies up 1.23%.
