Astera Labs Hits Record High Ahead of Next Week

Astera Labs Hits Record High Ahead of Next Week

Astera Labs finished the week on a high, with shares up 3.04% Friday to close at a record $306.88. That’s a gain of roughly 32% from last Friday. The U.S. stock market is closed for the weekend and for Memorial Day on Monday, May 25, so Nasdaq stocks, including Astera, won’t trade until Tuesday. Astera’s move drew attention this time because last week’s rally wasn’t only about AI. Investors started pricing Astera as a bigger play on the data-center “fabric” trade, which covers the high-speed connections that tie together processors, memory, and networking chips inside AI server racks.

Inflection Point VI’s New Nasdaq Symbols Are Out; $10.15 In Focus This Week

Inflection Point Acquisition Corp. VI units finished Friday at $10.15, trading just above their IPO price as the blank-check firm wrapped its first week on the market with separated shares and warrants. U.S. exchanges are closed for the weekend, and Nasdaq won’t open Monday for Memorial Day. Trading resumes Tuesday. The timing is important now that investors can put a value on the three different parts: units trading under IPFXU, Class A shares under IPFX, and warrants under IPFXW.
