Meta Platforms Inc - Ordinary Shares - Class A

Meta Platforms Inc

Meta is surging on the breakout popularity of its Muse AI assistant, which has topped U.S. app-store download charts ahead of rivals like ChatGPT and delivered the stock's best single-day gain in more than a year. Traders are divided between bulls framing Muse as tangible AI monetization momentum ahead of the Meta Connect event, and skeptics calling the move an overbought short squeeze on an app with unproven revenue, while Amazon's decision to block Muse adds a further point of contention.

Viking Therapeutics, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, which engages in the development of therapies for metabolic and endocrine disorders. The company was founded by Brian Lian and Michael A. Dinerman on September 24, 2012 and is headquartered in San Diego, CA.

Viking Therapeutics Inc

Speculation over the imminent release of Viking's VK2735 maintenance-dosing trial dataguided by the company for the third quarteris dominating the chat, with a late-session reversal on roughly double average volume convincing many traders that results, or a leak, could drop at any moment. The community is split between bulls treating the extended sell-off as a pre-data entry point and eyeing takeover interest from a struggling Novo Nordisk, and bears citing cautious CEO comments on dosing tolerability risks and the stock's steady decline into the readout.

Critical Metals Corp. engages in the mining, exploration, and development of lithium metals. It owns Wolfsberg Project and Tanbreez Project. The company was founded on October 24, 2022 and is headquartered in British Virgin Islands.

Critical Metals Corp.

Shares surged after the U.S. announced a security agreement with Denmark and Greenland granting Washington permanent security access to the island, which traders view as de-risking the company's Tanbreez rare-earth project and advancing Western supply-chain independence from China. The community is split between bulls betting on a short squeeze amid an upcoming catalyst stretchthe treaty signing, the Trump-Xi summit, and the European Lithium merger voteand skeptics who argue the deal changes nothing operationally near-term and raises sell-the-news risk.

Paramount Skydance Corp. is a next-generation global media and entertainment company that engages in providing content creation and distribution services. It operates through the following business segments: Studios, Direct-to-Consumer, and TV Media. Its portfolio unites brands including Paramount Pictures, Paramount Television, CBS, CBS News, Nickelodeon, MTV, BET, Comedy Central, Showtime, Paramount Plus, Pluto TV, and Skydance’s Animation, Film, Television, Interactive/Games, and Sports divisions.

Paramount Skydance Corp. - Ordinary Shares - Class B

Traders are reacting to reports that Paramount Skydance reached a settlement with California and other state attorneys general, clearing a major legal hurdle for its Warner Bros. Discovery merger in exchange for film-output commitments, an editorial-independence board for CBS and CNN, and domestic production spending pledges. The initial rally faded into a sharp reversal, splitting the community between dip-buyers who view the cleared merger path as a long-term opportunity and skeptics citing sell-the-news dynamics and alleged short-selling pressure.

Dogecoin is an open-source digital currency based on the "Doge" meme that functions as a peer-to-peer medium for fast payments and digital tipping. Unlike projects backed by corporate entities, its value is driven by a global community, and the project is managed by a decentralized group of volunteers and the non-profit Dogecoin Foundation rather than a formal company.  Originally created in 2013 by software engineers Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer as a market parody, the project held no public sale or venture capital rounds. The network operates as a fork of LuckyCoin, which itself was a fork of Litecoin, using a proof of work consensus mechanism. It employs the Scrypt algorithm to ensure the mining process remains fast and efficient, with new blocks processed every 60 seconds. A unique technical feature is its use of merged mining, allowing miners to secure Dogecoin simultaneously with other Scrypt-based networks like Litecoin.  To keep transaction fees low and the network running indefinitely, Dogecoin features an uncapped supply where new coins are added forever. In a major regulatory milestone in March 2026, a joint SEC and CFTC framework officially classified Dogecoin as a digital commodity, placing it in the same asset category as gold or oil.

Dogecoin

Dogecoin is surging back toward a closely watched round-number resistance amid a broad crypto risk-on rally, with traders citing heavy short liquidations and renewed memecoin-season chatter. Bulls are calling for a breakout to extend the run, while skeptics warn long-time holders will sell into the level; the rebound follows a crypto-wide pullback after the Senate failed to advance the Clarity Act.

Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. engages in the semiconductor business. Its products include processors, accelerators, graphics, adaptive SoCs, FPGAs, and SOMs, and software, tools, and apps. The firm offers artificial intelligence, industries, workloads, and gaming solutions. The company was founded by W. J. Sanders III on May 1, 1969 and is headquartered in Santa Clara, CA.

Advanced Micro Devices Inc

AMD is trending after the stock surged roughly 10% to a record high, briefly lifting its market capitalization above $1 trillion for the first time amid a broader chip rally tied to AI demand. Traders are split between bulls celebrating the milestone and Lisa Su's leadership and bears calling the run an overextended, hype-driven squeeze, citing stretched valuations, recent analyst downgrades, and insider selling.

New Era Energy & Digital, Inc. is an exploration and production company, which engages in selling oil and natural gas products. The company was founded on February 6, 2023 and is headquartered in Midland, TX.

New Era Energy & Digital Inc.

Shares surged after New Era Energy & Digital secured a 20-year, 207 MW power purchase agreement with a Vistra affiliate to power Phase 1 of its Texas Critical Data Centers campus. Traders are largely celebrating the deal, speculating about a short squeeze and an upcoming hyperscaler tenant lease for the campus, while skeptics point to the company's minimal revenue and warn of potential dilution to fund the buildout.

Arm Holdings Plc engages in the licensing, marketing, research, and development of microprocessors, systems IP, graphics processing units, physical IP and associated systems IP, software, and tools. It operates through the following geographical segments: United Kingdom, United States, and Other Countries. The company was founded on November 12, 1990 and is headquartered in Cambridge, the United Kingdom.

Arm Holdings plc. - ADR

Arm Holdings Plc.

Arm shares surged as the rapid consumer adoption of Meta's Muse AI agent fueled a broader CPU rally, with traders citing expectations that agentic AI workloads will drive sharply higher data-center CPU demand and noting Meta is the lead partner on Arm's AGI CPU. The community is split between traders embracing the CPU-demand narrative and skeptics calling the move an overextended, momentum- and options-driven pump with unsustainable valuation.

Direxion Shares ETF Trust - Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X ETF

Direxion Daily Semiconductor Bear 3X ETF

An intense AI-driven rally in semiconductor stocks is hammering the 3x inverse ETF toward all-time lows, drawing heavy loss complaints, dip-buying, and flipping between the bull and bear leveraged funds. Traders are split between those calling the AI/semis run an overextended bubbleciting stretched valuations, hawkish rate expectations, and oil and geopolitical risksand those dismissing the bearish bet as momentum-proof, with many also warning about leveraged ETF decay.

Ethereum is a global, open-source platform for decentralized applications. In other words, it is a decentralized blockchain platform that enables developers to build and deploy smart contracts and applications without central authority control. Unlike Bitcoin, which primarily functions as digital currency, Ethereum operates as a programmable global computer where developers can create any type of decentralized service.   The platform hosts over $14 billion in DeFi applications with hundreds of thousands of active users across financial protocols, NFT marketplaces, and gaming platforms. Its transition to Proof of Stake in September 2022 reduced energy consumption by over 99%, addressing environmental concerns while strengthening network security.  The network operates through thousands of independent validator nodes that process transactions and execute smart contracts on the Ethereum Virtual Machine. Smart contracts are self-executing programs written in Solidity that automatically carry out agreements when conditions are met, eliminating intermediaries like banks or brokers.   Validators stake ETH as collateral to propose and validate blocks, earning rewards for honest participation while facing penalties for malicious behavior. The EIP-1559 upgrade introduced a dynamic base fee mechanism that burns ETH with each transaction, creating deflationary pressure during high network activity when more ETH is burned than issued to validators.  Vitalik Buterin proposed Ethereum in 2013, but seven co-founders helped build it, including Gavin Wood who created Solidity and the EVM technical specification, and Joseph Lubin who founded ConsenSys. The project launched in July 2015 after raising over $18 million through crowdfunding, quickly becoming the largest blockchain developer community. Major milestones include the 2020 Beacon Chain launch, the 2021 London hard fork implementing fee burning, and the 2022 Merge to Proof of Stake.   Ether (ETH) serves multiple functions: paying transaction fees (gas), staking to secure the network and earn 3-5% annual yields, serving as collateral in DeFi protocols, and purchasing NFTs and digital assets. The asset is increasingly adopted by traditional institutions, with publicly traded companies adding ETH to corporate treasuries to generate staking yields while maintaining blockchain exposure, and in 2024, the SEC approved spot Ethereum ETFs, allowing traditional investors to gain exposure through conventional brokerage accounts.  Ethereum's roadmap focuses on dramatically increasing transaction capacity to over 100,000 per second, reducing confirmation times, and enhancing decentralization while maintaining security against future threats like quantum computing.

Ethereum

Ethereum is ripping higher alongside a broader crypto rally, with traders repeatedly citing waves of heavy short liquidations as the squeeze behind the move and some also pointing to the SEC's tokenization push as fuel. Sentiment is split between bulls declaring a new bull run toward round-number resistance and bears calling the surge a trap, even as the rally holds up despite a Fed rate hike and geopolitical headwinds.
