Sohu Gains as Traders Watch Cash and Buybacks; China Gaming Cools

Sohu.com Limited’s U.S. shares edged higher Tuesday afternoon, gaining 0.8% to $13.93 on light volume. The move came as investors focused on the company’s most recent earnings rather than new headlines. Shares traded in a range from $13.55 to $13.99, with volume a little above 33,000. Sohu, a smaller Chinese internet and gaming stock on Nasdaq, is moving mostly on its last update, not fresh news. Timing is key here. Nasdaq trades from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Eastern, and June 2 shows up as a regular trading day for 2026.

Pixel 10 Set to Get Massive Graphics Boost as Google Confirms GPU Update

This Magnetic Game Controller Snaps to Your Phone and Slides Out to Let You Play Anywhere

The MCON started as a student’s hobby project and became a viral sensation. 19-year-old Josh King originally 3D‑printed a slider gamepad prototype in his parents’ basement, frustrated by the lack of integrated controllers for modern phones theouterhaven.net.

They launched a Kickstarter in early 2025 that raised roughly $1.75 million from about 16,000 backers androidauthority.com – making it one of the most successful mobile controller campaigns ever.
