American Battery Technology Company (ABAT), which manufactures and recycles battery materials in the U.S., is on track to extend its two-day slide, with the stock plunging over 26% in Friday’s early premarket session.On Thursday, ABAT plunged 36.65%, with the downside accompanied by nearly five times the average volume, after the company disclosed in an 8-K filing that the U.S. Department of Energy (DoE) has notified it regarding the termination of a $57.75 million award, effective at the end of the budget period ending Aug. 31. The company said it has submitted an appeal to the termination.&nbsp;The government funding was initially approved for a project for the design, construction, commissioning, and operation of a commercial-scale facility for the manufacturing of battery cathode-grade lithium hydroxide. The company’s cost share was $57.75 million. As of Oct. 9, when the company was notified, about $52 million of the grant was outstanding.&nbsp;Undeterred by the adverse development, American Battery published the Technical Report and Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the Tonopah Flats Lithium Project (TFLP) near Tonopah, Nevada. The company stated that the study confirmed the project's economic potential and potential strategic importance as a cornerstone of the domestic critical mineral lithium supply chain.Retail users&nbsp;on&nbsp;Stocktwits have largely overlooked the cancellation of the government grant. Sentiment toward the American Battery stock has remained mostly ‘extremely bullish’ over the past month amid the U.S.-China standoff over rare earth imports from the Asian nation. The message volume on the stream was also ‘extremely high.’<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:618/51;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_10_17_at_4_09_46_AM_png_f4fc2d94cc.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-10-17 at 4.09.46 AM.png" width="618" height="51"><figcaption>ABAT sentiment and message volume as of 4:10 a.m. ET, Oct 17 | source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>One watcher attributed the premarket sell-off in American Battery stock partly to the sharp plunge in futures ahead of Friday’s open.&nbsp;<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/ThaDankles/message/632695820</stembedurl>Another user suggested that China buy 20% of the company.&nbsp;<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Peeyes/message/632694772</stembedurl>A third user looked for dip-buying. “Anything below my average cost is considered [an] accumulation zone.

Wall Street could have another down day on Friday, with index futures firmly in the red early Friday.&nbsp; Yet again, there would be little news flow on the economic front due to the ongoing government shutdown. The imminent release of key tech earnings over the next couple of weeks could prompt traders to take a defensive stance.&nbsp;Fund manager Louis Navellier flagged the shutdown and the China trade uncertainty as the two major issues weighing down on the market. Credit concerns have also emerged as another significant headwind following disclosures from a few banks on Thursday.&nbsp;As of 1 a.m. ET on Friday, the Nasdaq 100 futures declined 0.51% and the S&amp;P 500 futures fell about 0.48%, and the Russell 2000 futures moved down a steeper 0.64%, while the Dow futures slipped a more modest 0.33%.The major averages fell moderately on Thursday amid a lack of any significant economic cues. Financials served as a big drag on the market after Zions Bancorp, a regional bank, disclosed a $50 million charge related to two commercial and industrial loans advanced by its California office, and its peer Western Alliance said it has sued Cantor for alleged fraud.&nbsp;Except for IT stocks, every other sector came under selling pressure amid the ongoing uncertainties.The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a>, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the S&amp;P 500 Index, and the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ)</a> fell 0.68% and 0.37%, respectively, and the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/DIA">SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (DIA)&nbsp;</a>ended down 0.68% The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/IWM">iShares Russell 2000 ETF (IWM)</a> slumped 2.11%, as small-caps, which have seen a nice run-up on rate cut hopes, experienced profit-taking amid signals of banking risks.&nbsp;Among the key earnings reports for the day are American Express (AXP), Comerica (CMA), Fifth Third (FITB), Regions Financial (RF), State Street (STT), Truist (TFC), Huntington Banc (HBAN), SLB (SLB), and Autoliv (ALV).Navellier said growth and momentum names led from the front amid the market volatility, with the fund manager confident of the trend remaining positive. He views the Federal Reserve’s rate cut and the end of the shutdown as near-term catalysts that can help the market take its next leg up.After ending Thursday’s session marginally higher, crude oil futures were marginally lower in the Asian session. The gold rally, which saw a let-up on Thursday, has resumed. On Thursday, the 10-year U.S. Treasury note yield broke below the 4% mark for the first time since early April and has fallen further early Friday. Falling bond yields reflect expectations that the central bank will lower rates. The U.S. dollar has weakened for a fourth straight session.&nbsp;The major Asian markets were swathed in a sea of red, as Wall Street’s dismal performance tempered risk appetite in the regional markets.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-csx-stock-rose-over-2-in-after-hours-trading/ch6rD5gR3FQ">Why CSX Stock Rose Over 2% In After-Hours Trading</a>

Credit concerns have also emerged as another significant headwind following disclosures from a few banks on Thursday. 

Shares of electric-vehicle (EV) battery manufacturer and storage solutions company Microvast Holdings, Inc. (MVST) are poised to open higher on Thursday,&nbsp;setting them on course for a fourth straight session of gains.In&nbsp;the early premarket session,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/MVST">MVST stock</a> climbed over 12% and is inching closer to the psychological barrier of $7, which it has not cleared since March 2022. So far this week, the stock has gained 44%, with the year-to-date gains at 202%. The stock was the top trending equity ticker on Stocktwits early Thursday.The newfound optimism toward Microvast could be traced back to the ongoing wrangling between the U.S. and China over the latter’s curbs on the export of rare earths, which are used for making battery materials.On Stocktwits, retail sentiment toward MVST stock moved further into the ‘extremely bullish’ territory, as of early Thursday, with the message volume at ‘extremely high’ levels.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:619/59;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Screenshot_2025_10_16_at_5_13_27_AM_png_d26a7d766e.webp" alt="Screenshot 2025-10-16 at 5.13.27 AM.png" width="619" height="59"><figcaption>MVST sentiment and message volume as of 5:10 a.m. ET, Oct. 16 | source: Stocktwits</figcaption></figure>The stock is receiving strong support from retailers on Stocktwits, with one user suggesting it's time for the stock to reach the $10 level.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/Michael_Milking/message/632524827</stembedurl>Another user said he was accumulating MVST stock, alongside other similar-sized “pillars of investment, grounded in reality of the company’s assets, IP, and global infrastructure.”<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/OsloSkier/message/632523703</stembedurl>A third user sounded even more bullish. Calling MVST a value stock, they, however, warned of a potential correction on the horizon. While noting that many stocks traded with a market cap of over $20 billion and no revenue, they said MVST’s market cap was no longer showing fair value. “This is no longer a meme name,” they added. Based on Wednesday’s closing price, the company has a market cap of $2.033 billion, placing it in the small-cap category.<stembedurl>https://stocktwits.com/moneylizard/message/632522828</stembedurl>Wall Street analysts, however, are not optimistic about MVST’s stock trajectory, with the Koyfin-compiled consensus analysts’ price target at $5.50. This implies roughly 12% downside from the closing price on Wednesday. to Koyfin, the short interest in MVST stock is at 10.70%, the highest in more than four years, making it an ideal candidate for a short-squeeze rally.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/tsmc-stock-rises-nearly-2-premarket-after-q3-earnings/ch6YxdUR3Vw">TSMC Stock Rises Nearly 2% Premarket After Q3 Earnings: Retail Traders Cheer Loudly</a>

The newfound optimism toward Microvast could be traced back to the ongoing wrangling between the U.S. and China over the latter’s curbs on the export of rare earths, which are used for making battery materials.

Early indications suggest a firmer, although cautious, start by Wall Street stocks as traders continue to contend with the uncertainties about the government reopening after the 16-day shutdown. The absence of any major government data due to the ongoing shutdown has also rendered the mood cautious.&nbsp;That said, earnings have provided an offsetting impact, with TSMC’s (TSM) stellar quarterly results confirming the strength relayed by Dutch semiconductor equipment maker ASML (ASML) on Wednesday. Transportation company JB Hunt’s (JBHT)&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/why-did-jb-hunt-stock-pop-over-12-after-hours/ch6YY5UR3Vf">strong third-quarter revenue&nbsp;</a>augurs well for earnings from the industry.As of 3:40 a.m. ET on Thursday, the Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 31% and the S&amp;P 500 futures added 0.13%, while the Dow and Russell 2000 futures rose marginally.On Wednesday, the major averages closed mostly higher amid volatility, although the 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average retreated modestly, with positive big bank earnings helping to assuage macro concerns.&nbsp;The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a>, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the S&amp;P 500 Index, and the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ)</a> climbed 0.44% and 0.46%, respectively.

The Case for Small Caps: Technicals, Rates, & RS Align

After years of lagging behind their large-cap peers, small caps are finally poised for a meaningful move higher. 

U.S. stock futures slid early Tuesday after the market staged a rebound in the previous session, with the geopolitical tensions around China continuing to pose a downside risk. The Chinese Ministry of Commerce on Tuesday&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/beijing-confirms-dialogue-with-us-but-warns-against-intimidation/ch6mfquR3li">confirmed</a> working-level talks between Beijing and Washington, but issued a strongly worded statement against intimidation by the U.S.&nbsp;Additionally, the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 14th day, remains an undercurrent, especially as lawmakers from either side of the aisle showed a lack of resolve to clinch a deal.&nbsp;The earnings season starts in earnest this week, with bank earnings beginning to roll in on Tuesday.

The report indicated that financials would report the fourth-highest earnings growth among the 11 S&amp;P 500 sector classes, with consumer finance and insurance leading the way higher.As of 2:20 a.m. ET on Tuesday, the Nasdaq 100 and Russell 2000 futures were down more than 0.70%, and the S&amp;P futures slipped 0.5%, while the Dow futures fell a more modest 0.36%.Buoyed by President Donald Trump's toned-down rhetoric on China and additional artificial intelligence (AI) deal announcements, stocks rebounded on Monday from last Friday’s sell-off. Barring defensive consumer staple and healthcare stocks, nine of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sector classes advanced during the session, with IT, consumer discretionary, and communication services stocks leading the gains.The&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF (SPY)</a>, an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that tracks the S&amp;P 500 Index, rose 1.53%, and the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/QQQ">Invesco QQQ Trust (QQQ)</a> jumped 2.12%.

He also underscored the danger China poses due to its near monopoly on rare earths. “It is outrageous that we have let China refine more than 90% of the rare earths. This is a far greater threat than OPEC ever was.”On the economic front, the National Federation of Independent Business’ (NFIB) optimism index for September is due at 6 a.m. ET.

Gold futures, meanwhile, continued their incessant climb, thanks to the looming uncertainties.The 10-year U.S. Treasury note slipped further toward the 4% mark in the Asian session after ending Monday’s session unchanged. The U.S. dollar was modestly lower against its major counterparts. Most major Asian markets moved lower on Tuesday, with the Japanese equities leading the slide as domestic traders weighed in&nbsp;on the U.S.-China standoff and preferred to stay on the sidelines ahead of Powell’s economic commentary.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Read Next:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/rigetti-attracts-retail-buzz-as-260-ytd-rally-stirs-valuation-concerns/ch6mXGDR3lk">Rigetti Attracts Strong Retail Buzz As Quantum Computing Stock’s 260% YTD Rally Stirs Valuation Concerns</a>

Grindr (GRND) is reportedly in talks to go private after a steep decline in its share price placed one of its top shareholders under financial strain, according to people familiar with the matter cited by Semafor.<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/GRND">Grindr’s stock</a> gained as much as&nbsp;11% in midday trade. However, retail sentiment on Stocktwits continued to trend in ‘neutral’ territory amid ‘high’ levels of chatter.The&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.semafor.com/article/10/13/2025/grindr-explores-take-private-after-lender-calls-insiders-loans">report</a> said Raymond Zage and James Lu, who together control a majority of the dating app, are seeking debt financing from Fortress Investment Group to take Grindr private. It added that the discussions gained urgency after a unit of Temasek Holdings, which had issued personal loans to at least one of the two men backed by their Grindr shares, seized and sold some of those holdings last week.The pair has discussed a potential buyout price near $15 a share, though that figure remains in flux, people familiar with the talks said.

The report said these were partially seized by SeaTown Holdings, a Temasek unit, last week after becoming undercollateralized.Any transaction could also face scrutiny from U.S. regulators, given Grindr’s past ownership.

According to a report by Semafor, the potential buyout is being discussed at around $15 a share.

American Battery Technology Company (ABAT) announced on Monday that it has cleared a key regulatory hurdle in the U.S. by completing all baseline studies required under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for its Tonopah Flats Lithium Project (TFLP) in Nevada.These baseline reports were filed with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM), a necessary step before formal environmental review can begin. Because the TFLP sits on federally managed land, the project must secure permits through the BLM’s NEPA process.&nbsp;After more than two years of work and third‑party engagement, the company said that all baseline investigations are now finished and submitted.&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/ABAT">American Battery stock&nbsp;</a>traded over 41% higher on Monday morning and was the top trending equity ticker on Stocktwits.

The status was later elevated to a “Covered Priority Project,” placing it among a select group of projects that may benefit from permit acceleration and interagency coordination.In addition to the baseline filings, American Battery has submitted a full Mine Plan of Operations (MPO) to BLM. The company is now gearing up to publish a Pre‑Feasibility Study evaluating the technical and economic feasibility of TFLP.American Battery stock has gained over 309% in 2025 and over 907% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;Also See:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/asp-isotopes-stock-surges-13-percent-premarket-after-silicon-28-deal-radiopharmacy-acquisition/ch6S1mKR3km">ASP Isotopes Stock Surges 17% After Silicon-28 Deal, Radiopharmacy Acquisition</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.
