Good Morning! 

It's Chris from Elite Trade Club, here to give you this morning's premarket trading news.

Letā€™s get ready to trade!

Markets šŸ“ˆ

Stocks opened the trading week with a mixed performance yesterday. The Nasdaq sold off for more than a point, while the Dow and Russ2K notched modest gains.

  • Dow [+0.6%]

  • S&P 500 [-0.3%]

  • Nasdaq [-1.0%]

  • Russell 2K [+0.4%]

S&P 500 futures are up by about 0.1% in early trading, while Dow futures are showing a 0.1% loss.

What to Watch Today:
FedEx [FDX] will report its latest earnings results after the closing bell. As one of the worldā€™s leading shipping firms, FedEx has their finger on the pulse of the global economy in a way few other companies can match. The companyā€™s earnings reports regularly include valuable insights into both domestic and international economic trends. I recommend keeping an eye out for this report after the close.

A shadow has fallen over Silicon Valley as powerful insiders silently liquidate their stakes.

This hidden trend could signal an impending market collapse that may devastate unprepared investors and rewrite the rules of wealth.

Donā€™t wait to arm yourself with crucial knowledge.

Nvidia's Stock Drops 13% After Briefly Holding Top Market Value Spot šŸ“‰

Nvidia's [NVDA] stock has declined by 13% over the past three trading days after briefly becoming the world's most valuable company last week. Monday's 6.7% drop to $118.11 marked the chipmaker's second steepest fall of the year, leading to a broader decline among tech companies linked to the AI boom.

Ripple Effect šŸ’§
Nvidia's stock decrease impacted other tech firms. Super Micro Computer, which sells servers with Nvidiaā€™s AI chips, fell 8.7%, while Dell dropped 5.2%. Chip designer Arm and semiconductor giants Qualcomm and Broadcom experienced declines of 5.8%, 5.5%, and 3.7%, respectively. These companies had previously seen significant gains due to anticipated AI-related spending.

Investor Activity šŸ’¼
Despite the recent slump, Nvidia's value has nearly tripled over the past year. Last week, it surpassed Apple and Microsoft to become the most valuable U.S. company with a market capitalization exceeding $3 trillion, though it later lost some of these gains. Investors appear to be locking in profits after several months of strong performance.

Sustained Demand šŸ–„ļø
Nvidia reports continued high demand for its AI graphics processing units (GPUs), with major companies like Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Oracle, and Meta purchasing billions of dollars worth of chips for their data centers and cloud services.

Future Growth šŸš€
Nvidia plans to start shipping its next-generation AI chips, called Blackwell, later this year. Analysts expect these new chips could spark another growth cycle for Nvidia and its partners, potentially boosting the company's performance and market value once again.

Regis Corp [RGS] - Last Close: $5.07

Salon-chain owner Regis Corp just announced a new refinancing credit facility that will reduce its total outstanding debt by more than $80 million.

The new facility will also save the company roughly $7 million a year in cash interest annually, accelerating its investment in long-term growth.

Regis accomplished this by entering into a $105 million term loan and a $25 million revolving credit facility with TCW Asset Management.

RGS is this morningā€™s top mover with a 124% gain on roughly 8 million shares traded in the premarket.

My Take: RGS is down 46% in 2024, but this catalyst could be exactly what it needs to right the ship. A brief chart analysis shows the downtrend may be approaching its end.

Wave Life Sciences [WVE] - Last Close: $5.21

New data shows Wave Lifeā€™s WVE-003 treatment for Huntingtonā€™s Disease produced promising results in a Phase 1b/2a SELECT-HD trial.

According to a company press release, the drug produced statistically significant results and was generally safe & well-tolerated among patients.

Wave Life said it plans to engage with regulators on a clinical development path of WVE-003 that would support accelerated approval.

WVE initially spiked on this news, but the rally is beginning to calm down. Itā€™s only up by 7.2% at the moment, but volume is strong at 5 million shares.

My Take: WVE has been volatile the last three months, and itā€™s coming off a four-day sell-off. This could be a swing opportunity.

Volcon [VLCN] - Last Close: $3.88

Electric off-road vehicle manufacturer Volcon is surging in what appears to be a short squeeze rally.

The company hasnā€™t reported any specific news since June 14th, when it revealed it had received a non-compliance notice from Nasdaq.

However, shares jumped 6.3% on Monday, and the trend is continuing to build steam in todayā€™s premarket.

Fidelity lists VLCN with a short percentage of 591.82% as of May 31st, 2024, and now it appears the market may have caught the shorts in a trap.

VLCN is up 43.8% on just shy of 3 million shares traded.

My Take: VLCN could see more gains before this rally is over, but I doubt it will hold onto them for long. If you want to chase this one, be prepared to make a quick exit so you can lock in your gains before theyā€™re gone.

GlycoMimetics [GLYC] - Last Close: $0.2666

A late Monday Form 4 filing revealed GlycoMimetics CMO Edwin Rock had purchased 305K shares of GLYC common stock at $0.26 per share.

The insider spent about $79K to enter into this position, which brought his total stake in the company to 680,403 shares.

Last week, CFO Brian Hahn also disclosed the purchase of 17.5K shares of common stock, bringing his position to 70,643 shares.

GLYC is a top mover with a 66.1% gain, and itā€™s one of this morningā€™s most active stocks with over 33 million shares traded.

My Take: GLYC is getting a big boost from this news, but Iā€™m not sure itā€™s warranted. Itā€™s always prudent to be a little more cautious when youā€™re dealing with penny stocks.

That's it for today! Thanks for reading, and good luck out there!
