Priced at $25 for a $200 million raise
Robinhood's second retail vehicle for private companies priced at $25 a share, raising $200 million across 8 million shares with Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, J.P. Morgan, UBS and Wells Fargo running the books. Ordinary investors get exchange-traded exposure to late-stage private names without the accreditation gate, and the shares begin trading now.
A 9.8% run to $64.09 adds roughly $1 billion to an $11 billion software name in a single session, a magnitude this stock rarely posts. Whether it holds through the next open is the thing to track.
Workday closed 18.7% higher at $208.09, the biggest single-session move across our 110-stock priority list. Software names took four of the five top spots, while Coherent and Cipher Mining each shed more than 7%.

Semiconductors carried the S&P 500 to a record close, while the Dow gained just 25 points. Anyone underweight chips got almost none of today's rally.
A 12.5% intraday run to $6.98 adds roughly $600 million of market value to this $5.4 billion eVTOL name in a single session. Moves this size rarely hold cleanly, so the close is the number that matters.

A 14.8% single-session jump to $1,541.66 is a rare magnitude for a $204 billion chipmaker, adding roughly a quarter of a trillion-dollar tier move in hours. Whether the stock holds above the $1,343 open is the level that matters from here.
Tech is doing the heavy lifting again at midday, with the Nasdaq up 0.42% and the Dow trailing at less than a third of that. If the afternoon holds, breadth stays narrow and growth names keep setting the tone into the close.
Europe closed split: German equities gained 0.6% while London finished at 10,789.93. Treating "European exposure" as one trade means missing the divergence inside it.
The reaction to Fermi's Q2 earnings is intensifying: a 9% slide to $6.92 wipes out the resistance test traders were watching hours ago. Next level to hold is the $6.90 area.
Down 4.4% to $340 in the session right after Coherent's Q4 2026 earnings beat, so buyers are treating good numbers as a chance to take profits in an AI-optics leader. Keep an eye on whether $340 holds.
