November 11, 2025, 6:16 PM EST. Premarket movers included Nvidia slipping 1.8% after SoftBank disclosed it sold its stake for $5.83B. CoreWeave dropped nearly 8% as full-year guidance disappointed, guiding revenue to $5.05B-$5.15B vs. $5.29B expected. Paramount Skydance jumped about 5% after earnings, with cost cuts, layoffs and higher streaming prices eyed for next year. XPeng rose 4.8% amid enthusiasm over its humanoid tech and plans to launch robotaxis next year. Beyond Meat fell 6.7% on weaker Q4 guidance of $60-$65M vs. $70M consensus. Rigetti Computing slid 3.8% after Q3 revenue of $1.9M missed. BigBear.ai surged 16% on a revenue beat and reaffirmed full-year guidance. RealReal jumped 16.6% after guiding higher and beating Q3 revenue. Rocket Lab gained 8% as revenue beat and narrower loss.

November 11, 2025, 6:14 PM EST. CoreWeave shares fell after a weaker 2025 revenue outlook overshadowed strong Q3 results and a string of AI deals with OpenAI, Meta and Nvidia. The New Jersey-based AI infrastructure firm posted $1.36 billion in quarterly revenue, beating forecasts around $1.29B and up 134% year over year, while net loss narrowed to $110 million. Management blamed a data-center delay and constraints around powered-shell data centers, saying most issues should be resolved by Q1 next year. 2025 revenue guidance of $5.05-$5.15 billion missed consensus of about $5.29B, sending shares down roughly 9% in premarket trading. CEO Mike Intrator noted 41 centers in the portfolio and ongoing capex growth, including plans touched on in a proposed Core Scientific acquisition that ultimately was rejected.

November 11, 2025, 6:12 PM EST. New analysis from Edmunds reveals that used Teslas are selling rapidly, with the Model S averaging 21.5 days, Model 3 around 22 days, and Model Y about 26.3 days to move in Q3 2025. The tiny share of EVs in used-car inventories-about 1.6% in Q3-helps explain the fast turnover, despite broader dealer lots growing longer. Even as Tesla's 2025 sales slip, the Model Y and Model 3 remain top sellers, aided by 2-3 year lease expirations heading into 2026. A reduced federal credit for new EVs may push more buyers toward the used market, with other models like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Ford Mustang Mach-E also posting quick turns. The upcoming quarter will test demand as the tax-credit effect fades.

November 11, 2025, 6:10 PM EST. Rocket Lab has pushed the first Neutron launch to early 2026, prioritizing testing and risk retirement over speed. CEO Peter Beck said the company is taking a meticulous approach, with extensive ground testing of systems-from the Archimedes engines to the reusable hungry hippo payload fairing-before attempting flight at Launch Complex 3 in Virginia. The delay follows a shift from a 2025 goal to ensure a higher probability of success, with the exact launch date to depend on ongoing tests, including a potential hot-fire of the first-stage engines. Management says the schedule shift carries an insignificant long-term financial impact, even as Neutron development costs rise toward roughly $300-360 million. The company still aims to reach orbit on the first launch.

November 11, 2025, 6:08 PM EST. Authorities in the central Ulyanovsk region ordered the first permanent mobile internet blackout in Russia, expanding security zones around sensitive government and military sites amid the so-called special military operation in Ukraine. The outage began in early November and affects parts of residential areas, offices and public buildings, with the exact area kept confidential for security reasons. Officials say the restrictions will remain in place until federal authorities decide otherwise. Some services on a proposed white list - including Gosuslugi, Yandex, Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki, Ozon, Wildberries and the Mir payment system - were reportedly disrupted, prompting calls to rely on wired connections and more than 450 free Wi-Fi points. Regular outages have spread across Russia since May as authorities cite drone-related security concerns.
