Marvell’s Big Pop, Intel’s Trump Boost, and Iran Peace Deal

Stocks shrugged off this week’s hawkish Fed scare and rallied today after the US and Iran signed a peace deal, with Marvell turning into the index’s biggest standout and Intel catching a surprise lift from a presidential social media post.

Oil tumbled, and small caps outran the big names, because apparently that’s just how Thursdays go now. Here’s everything that moved and why it actually matters for your watchlist.

Elite Trade Club and Alumni Ventures are giving readers early access to high-potential startup opportunities, including some of today’s most exciting AI, Deep Tech, Quantum Computing, Cybersecurity, and Space companies co-invested alongside top VC firms like Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), Bessemer, & Y Combinator.

You’re seeing the AI infrastructure boom from the outside, where every strong chart looks like another reason to chase. But Elite Trade Club Insider readers are getting the part the crowd usually sees too late: executives are turning massive rallies into cash while the headlines still sound bullish.

Every day, insiders and institutions move millions before the market catches on. We surface the data behind those moves before the rest of the market sees it.

Under the hood, breadth told its own story: advancers beat decliners nearly 9 to 5 on the NYSE and roughly 3 to 2 on the Nasdaq, a sign the rally had real legs and wasn't just a few mega-caps doing the work. AI infrastructure names did plenty of the lifting too, with Teradyne, Sandisk, and Corning all posting solid gains on data center demand, while steelmaker Steel Dynamics tumbled after triggering a profit-taking sell signal following its big breakout run.

Banks didn't fully join the party: JPMorgan slipped after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh's hawkish tone on his first policy meeting sent the two-year Treasury yield climbing past 4.1%. Transports outperformed too, riding cheaper oil to a session high.

Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ: GOOGL) self-driving unit, Waymo, is recalling nearly 3,900 robotaxis because the vehicles drove into closed freeway construction zones with active work underway. This is the second recall in just over five weeks. The previous one was for driving into flooded roads at high speeds.

A self-driving car that cannot recognize a closed highway is a problem. A pattern of recalls that keeps growing is much bigger.

The List Keeps Getting Longer

Construction zones. Flooded roads. Stopped school buses. Towed vehicles. Poles. Each recall addresses a different scenario in which Waymo's vehicles failed to respond as a human driver would. The company now has multiple recalls stacked across the last two years covering basic driving situations.

You expect a robotaxi to handle unusual road conditions. That is literally the entire point. Every recall that says it could not chip away at the core promise.

Alphabet Cannot Afford a Safety Crisis

Waymo is one of Alphabet's most ambitious long-term bets. The technology works well enough to operate commercially in multiple cities. But every recall, every investigation, and every incident involving a child or a school bus makes the regulatory path harder and public trust more fragile.

You build trust in autonomous vehicles one safe mile at a time and lose it in a single headline. Waymo is generating too many of the wrong kind.

Xometry (NASDAQ: XMTR) is rolling out new injection molding features that make its manufacturing marketplace faster, broader, and harder to replace.

Xometry’s play is to make custom manufacturing behave more like modern software. Instead of slow supplier searches, manual quotes, repeated file uploads, and expensive design mistakes, the company is building a platform where buyers can price, review, order, and repeat production with less friction.

Design Mistakes Get Caught Earlier

New manufacturability consultations give customers expert feedback before tooling begins. That matters because once a mold is built, every mistake becomes more expensive to fix.

For customers, your first production decision now has more support for Xometry, which turns the platform from a place to get prices into a place where manufacturers can avoid delays before they happen.

Repeat Orders Become a Moat

One-click reordering carries forward files, specifications, and supplier routing from earlier jobs. That makes repeat production easier and keeps customers inside Xometry’s system after the first order.

Xometry is building stickiness into the manufacturing process itself. Once a company stores its parts, specs, and supplier history on the platform, you have a business that can become part of daily industrial purchasing, not just a place to check prices.

Many investors overlook deductions that could help minimize capital gains tax, such as:

Each comes with IRS rules and reporting requirements.

That’s why consulting a fiduciary financial advisor is often recommended.

Target (NYSE: TGT) is partnering with Hollister on a new back-to-college collection that brings apparel, bedding, and dorm decor into Target stores and online starting June 28. The launch gives Target a youth-focused brand collaboration tied directly to one of retail’s biggest seasonal spending windows.

Dorm Rooms Become the Doorway

Target already has a strong home and dorm business, but Hollister adds a style-driven name that can pull younger shoppers into the category. Bedding, blankets, decor, and apparel give the retailer more opportunities to turn a single college shopping trip into a fuller basket.

Walk into back-to-college season, and you can see Target’s play right away: make the dorm room feel like a fashion moment. That gives the company a sharper way to compete for students and parents before the fall rush peaks.

Seasonal Retail Gets a Bigger Push

The collection is expected to continue beyond the first launch, with future drops planned around fall, holiday, and spring shopping moments. That gives Target more than a short summer campaign.

If the partnership lands, you have Target turning back-to-college into a repeatable growth channel, one that blends home goods, apparel, youth culture, and seasonal traffic at a time when retailers need stronger reasons to bring shoppers back.

FreeCast [CAST] $8.02 (+55.71%)

FreeCast, a streaming aggregator most people have never heard of, struck a deal to resell Starlink Business service into housing, hospitality, and rural markets, layering onto last week’s DIRECTV tie-up.

The company is still burning cash and has flagged a going-concern risk in its own filings, so treat this as a hot partnership streak, not a balance-sheet story.

Butterfly Network [BFLY] $8.84 (+54.73%)

Butterfly Network landed an unlikely co-star today: Midjourney, the AI image company, unveiled a full-body scanner built on Butterfly’s licensed ultrasound chip technology, with up to $74 million riding on the partnership.

The stock hit a four-year high. The future of medical imaging, apparently, runs through a probe nobody outside cardiology had heard of two years ago.

Bimergen Energy [BESS] $5.86 (+38.74%)

Bimergen Energy, a microcap battery storage developer, doesn’t have a fresh headline behind today’s pop, just continued momentum from its growing grid-storage pipeline and a Strong Buy rating from ThinkEquity.

When a stock like this runs without news, it’s usually because the float is thin and somebody decided today was the day.

NovoCure [NVCR] $14.28 (-20.00%)

NovoCure’s Phase 3 TRIDENT trial for its glioblastoma device missed its primary survival endpoint, and the market didn’t wait around for nuance.

The therapy still showed activity on secondary measures, but secondary measures don’t pay the bills when the headline number misses. A rough day for a stock that had quietly been building momentum all year.

Dreamland [TDIC] $6.13 (-21.31%)

Dreamland, the Hong Kong event-management microcap that exploded this week on an AI image platform deal and a reverse split, is handing back a chunk of that spike.

Shares went from under a dollar to north of fifteen and back in a matter of days. Call it the hangover after the supernova.

Accenture [ACN] $127.98 (-17.97%)

Accenture trimmed the top end of its annual revenue growth forecast, telling investors that corporate clients remain cautious about big discretionary consulting spending, even with AI projects everywhere.

The company also picked up a majority stake in cybersecurity firm Dragos, which got completely buried under the guidance headline. Wall Street wanted growth today, not a shopping spree.

His reported salary? $400,000 annually.

Yet the bigger number tells a different story:
Up to $250,000 each month… from one channel.

It’s not property. It’s not stocks.

So what’s behind this kind of consistent income and why is it catching attention right now?

See how you can begin with under $20.

That's it for today! Please, write us back, and let us know what you think of the Closing Bell Roundup. We're always eager to hear feedback!

Thanks for reading. I'll see you at the next open!
