CAVA shares surged approximately +25.01% on February 25, 2026, closing near $84.76, up from the prior session's close of $67.80.

ODD shares plunged approximately 49.21% on February 25, 2026, closing near $14.74, compared to the prior close of approximately $29.02.

On the surface, PRCT’s top line still grew: Q4 2025 revenue reached about 76.4 million dollars, up roughly 11.9–12% from the prior year. However, analysts had expected something closer to 94–96 million dollars, so the shortfall of nearly 20% was significant for a high‑growth med‑tech name.
Payoneer Global (PAYO) fell more than 18% today after it missed Wall Street expectations on both Q4 2025 revenue and earnings, and issued softer‑than‑hoped guidance that reinforced concerns about slowing growth and competitive pressure in cross‑border fintech.

NVDA shares declined 5.47% on Thursday, February 26, 2026, closing at $184.87, down from the prior session close of approximately $195.56.

Shares of UHS fell approximately 9.15% on February 26, 2026, closing near $209.62, down from a prior close of $230.73.

HEI shares fell approximately 9.21% on February 26, 2026, closing at $312.98 versus a prior close near $344.72.

DELL shares surged 16.64% during Friday's session, last trading around $141.65, up from the prior close of $121.45. The primary catalyst was a blowout Q4 fiscal year 2026 earnings report, with revenue of $33.4 billion — up 39% year-over-year — beating consensus estimates by roughly $2 billion.
Stifel Financial (SF) appears to be down over 30% on your screen today primarily because its shares began trading split‑adjusted following a three‑for‑two stock split (a 50% stock dividend), not because of a sudden collapse in the company’s fundamentals. After the split, the per‑share price is mechanically lower, even though the underlying value of the business has not changed.
Sunrun (RUN) sank more than 35–37% today even after posting a massive Q4 beat because its outlook and strategic commentary signaled slower volume growth, tighter financing conditions, and a more defensive stance on 2026, which together triggered a sharp reset in already‑volatile solar sentiment.
