LegalZoom Drops Ahead of Shareholder Meeting as AI Fight Hangs Over Stock

LegalZoom Drops Ahead of Shareholder Meeting as AI Fight Hangs Over Stock

LegalZoom.com traded lower in premarket Wednesday, with the stock near $6.53 as investors prepared for the company’s annual meeting. Shares have had trouble translating stronger sales into better numbers on the bottom line. The latest price was off 14.5 cents from Tuesday’s close, giving LegalZoom a market cap near $1.16 billion. The timing sets the scene. U.S. markets are open as usual, and Nasdaq’s 2026 holiday list shows the next full day off is Juneteenth, June 19. LegalZoom’s shareholder meeting is scheduled for later in the day, not on a weekend or holiday.

CAAT pension shake-up: CEO Derek Dobson put on leave after $1.6 million payout scrutiny

CAAT Pension Plan said Friday it has placed CEO and plan manager Derek Dobson on immediate administrative leave, shifting chief investment officer Kevin Fahey into the acting CEO role.

As of its Feb. 5 update, the plan reported a 124% funded status, assets topping $23 billion, and upwards of $6 billion set aside in funding reserves.

Rivian stock lifts on R2 launch timeline, but 2026 outlook points to more losses

IRVINE, California, February 12, 2026, 13:55 PST Rivian Automotive is betting on a surge in deliveries for 2026—up 53% by its own estimate—driven by the rollout of its smaller R2 SUV in the second quarter. Investors liked what they heard; shares popped roughly 10% after hours on Thursday. The company projected 62,000 to 67,000 deliveries for this year, after getting 42,247 vehicles out the door in 2025. “The growth is really, of course, what we see in R2,” CEO RJ Scaringe told Reuters. Rivian’s new R2, starting around $45,000, lands in direct competition with Tesla’s Model Y, but it’s coming to market just as EV demand has softened following the end of U.S. federal tax credits, Reuters said.

Pinterest earnings: Stock drops on weak Q1 revenue outlook as AI pivot faces a tougher ad fight

Pinterest shares sank roughly 12% after hours Thursday after the company guided first-quarter revenue to a range of $951 million to $971 million—coming up short of the $980.1 million average estimate from analysts. The image-sharing platform, locked in a fight for advertising spend against TikTok along with Meta’s Instagram and Facebook, fell short of Wall Street’s hopes for the March quarter. The outlook’s under the microscope as Pinterest works to convince advertisers their dollars lead to actual sales—not just inspire users to scroll. Even the slightest miss or cautious forecast ramps up the pressure, with the company fighting for ad spend against much larger rivals.
