Stock Movers

Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market, a look at the notable movers:
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- CoreWeave (CRWV) shares plunged 20% in the first three sessions of the week as its debt tumbled to levels that typically indicate distress. The cost of protecting CoreWeave bonds against default rose to the highest intraday level on record, while swaps priced in a more than 60% chance of a default within the next five years. Despite the concerns, some investors and analysts, including Jensen Huang and Deutsche Bank, expressed confidence in the company, citing its strong customer base and demand for AI computing services.
- Eli Lilly's (LLY) Foundayo won the backing of the European Medicines Agency’s Committee for Medicinal Products for Human Use for obesity and type 2 diabetes. The recommendation for approval of the once-daily pill now goes to the European Commission for a final decision, which typically follows within about two months. Lilly is “working hard” to get ready to launch the pill in all 30 countries where an approval would be valid, according to Ken Custer, president of the drugmaker’s cardiometabolic unit.
- Tesla (TSLA) held a product reveal for its long-delayed Roadster sports car, showcasing a prototype with air thrusters that performed aerial stunts. The vehicle, designed in collaboration with SpaceX, features two seats and a Cybertruck-style steer-by-wire system, and is expected to start production in 2028. The Roadster is seen as a way to bring back excitement to the Tesla brand, which has experienced consecutive annual sales declines and criticism over a stagnant product lineup.

- Alcoa (AA) shares rose as much as 6.3% after the aluminum producer reported third-quarter adjusted earnings that beat estimates, helped by higher aluminum production and prices.

- CoreWeave (CRWV) shares plunged 20% in the first three sessions of the week as its debt tumbled to levels that typically indicate distress. The cost of protecting CoreWeave bonds against default rose to the highest intraday level on record, while swaps priced in a more than 60% chance of a default within the next five years. Despite the concerns, some investors and analysts, including Jensen Huang and Deutsche Bank, expressed confidence in the company, citing its strong customer base and demand for AI computing services.

- MSCI adopted new rules that could push Strategy (MSTR) out of its global equity benchmarks, potentially triggering stock sales and adding pressure to the financing model behind Michael Saylor's Bitcoin holdings. The decision establishes financial tests that could render Strategy ineligible for inclusion in MSCI's global equity indexes, and an eventual removal could deal a blow to the crypto-treasury model pioneered by Strategy. A removal from the index could pressure Strategy's stock by shrinking the pool of investors required to hold it, with estimated potential sales of $2.8 billion due to MSCI exclusion and potentially another $8.8 billion if other indexes follow suit.

- ExxonMobil (XOM) shares rose as much as 1.5% after the energy company said in a preliminary earnings statement that higher refining margins added about $4.5 billion to third-quarter earnings. The company is set to report its full earnings on Oct. 30. Analysts are expecting ExxonMobil's refining earnings to be about $7.8 billion in the third quarter, which would be the company's highest on record. ExxonMobil's surging profits will be partly offset by lower oil prices and a $2.5 billion hit due to "timing effects" or derivative positions linked to cargoes.

- JB Hunt (JBHT) shares fall as much as 3.2% after the trucking firm reported third-quarter results, with operating ratio and operating ratio excluding fuel surcharge higher than estimates. Analysts note that these cost pressures, weighing on margins, will take time to ease.
