Stock futures edged down in premarket trading Friday as U.S. equities exchanges reopened following the Christmas holiday. Trading volume likely will be light with much of Wall Street out of the office.
These stocks were poised to make moves Monday:
Nvidia climbed 0.6% in premarket trading. The chip maker entered into a nonexclusive agreement to license technology from Groq, an artificial-intelligence chip start-up, Groq announced on Christmas Eve. Both Groq's founder and president will leave the company and join Nvidia alongside other engineering talent. It isn't clear if Nvidia is taking an equity stake in the start-up.
Micron Technology jumped 1.5% in the premarket session. The memory chip maker has finished 2025 on a high note, handily beating earnings expectations earlier this month. Shares climbed 3.8% to a record closing high of $286.68 on Wednesday.
Nike stock rose 0.4%. The athletic apparel company was the top stock in the S&P 500 on Wednesday, climbing 4.6% after a regulatory disclosure showed that Apple CEO Tim Cook bought nearly $3 billion worth of Nike shares. Cook is the lead independent director of Nike.
Tesla rose 0.1%. Shares of the electric-vehicle maker remain a few percentage points off $500 since hitting a record closing high of $489.88 on Dec. 16. Earlier this week, the U.S. auto safety regulator began investigating allegations that the 2022 Tesla Model 3 mechanical door release was difficult to locate in an emergency.
Biohaven plummeted 15% after the biopharmaceutical company announced Wednesday that its drug, BHV-7000, failed to meet its primary endpoint for the treatment of major depressive disorder in a phase 2 trial.
Coupang gained 5.6% in premarket trading as a cybersecurity breach at the Korean retailer appeared to be nearing a conclusion. A former employee downloaded personal information of about 3,000 customers, but the data were deleted without being transferred to a third party, Reuters reported Friday, citing a company statement. Barron's has reached out to Coupang for comment.
