Stock Moves Since

 
 
 

$GNPX shares of Genprex exploded more than 230% today after the biotech firm unveiled promising new data for its experimental cancer therapy. The Texas-based company announcement of successful preclinical results from its research collaborators sparked massive after-hours buying, pushing volume past 900 million shares. This surge reflects renewed investor optimism around Genprex gene therapy platform, which had been largely overlooked in prior quarters. Traders are piling in with hopes that the new findings could attract major partnerships or regulatory fast-tracking.

$COOT continued its incredible run, up 173% as one of the most active names in pre-market trading. The massive surge in volume — over 180 million shares reflects intense speculative interest rather than a clear catalyst. $COOT appearance among the NASDAQ most active tickers has turned it into a short-term trader playground, but without any meaningful company-specific news, the move appears momentum-driven. As always, sharp moves like this can fade as quickly as they form, but for now, the ticker remains one of the market hottest talking points.

$VIVK gained 57% after Vivakor announced it signed a term sheet for a $40 million commodity intermediation facility. The deal provides the company with much-needed liquidity and growth capital for its energy recovery and waste management operations. Traders cheered the announcement, viewing it as a lifeline that could stabilize Vivakor balance sheet and fund expansion projects. With the deal pending completion, sentiment remains optimistic, but investors will be watching closely to see if it translates into sustainable operational improvement.

$VERI surged 54% following multiple bullish headlines surrounding Veritone AI business. The company revealed new contract wins with major hyperscalers and shared preliminary Q3 results that outperformed expectations. Despite ongoing financial challenges and debt concerns, the market chose to focus on the positives — namely, Veritone strong positioning in the AI software space. Momentum traders have latched onto $VERI, driving volume more than six times above average. While technically overbought in the near term, sentiment around AI-related names continues to fuel buying enthusiasm.

$SOGP advanced nearly 45% after Sound Group CEO purchased company shares on the open market — a move often interpreted as a strong show of confidence. Insider buying tends to attract retail attention, and today reaction was no exception. The buying spree signals management belief that the stock is undervalued, adding a boost of credibility to the rally.

On the downside, $AQMS plunged 53% after Aqua Metals announced a $13 million capital raise. While the funding aims to accelerate growth and commercialization, the dilution spooked investors. $PXLW dropped nearly 48% after Pixelworks revealed it would sell its Shanghai semiconductor unit to VeriSilicon for RMB 950 million, a move seen as a strategic pivot but one that triggered profit-taking. $AREC fell 26% following news of a $40 million private placement, while $TMQ and $CRML also tumbled amid broader weakness in metals and mining shares.
