Intro

On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Shares of Airbus (AIR FP) declined ahead of the US market open after the company suffered a one-two punch on its most popular product, the A320 airliner after the company Monday revealed quality issue on some fuselage panels that require inspections — just days after flagging a software glitch on about 6,000 jets that needed emergency upgrades. The European manufacturer appeared to have averted a major headache Monday morning when it said only a tiny portion of the aircraft needing the software fix still required attention. But the disclosure of quality lapses on a key section of the aircraft spooked investors again, driving the stock down the most since April.
- Shares of Nvidia (NVDA) dipped in the early session after news the company has invested $2 billion into chip-design software maker Synopsys (SNPS) as part of an engineering and design partnership. Nvidia purchased the shares at $414.79 each, the companies said in a statement on Monday, compared with a closing price of $418.01 on Friday. Nvidia, the most valuable company in the world, has invested in a series of companies with the boom in artificial intelligence, including OpenAI and data center operators such as CoreWeave Inc. It even agreed to invest $5 billion in Intel Corp., a potential rival, as part of a partnership to co-develop chips for personal computers and data centers.
- Shares of Strategy (MSTR) and other cryptocurrency-exposed stocks slipped in premarket trading after the crypto sector fell sharply on Monday, bringing fresh momentum to a wide-ranging selloff that appeared to have settled. Bitcoin slid as much as 6% to below $86,000 in early Asia trading, while Ether dropped more than 7% to about $2,800, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Most tokens followed a similar pattern, with Solana falling 7.8%. Bitcoin later retraced some of its losses and was trading at around $86,788 at 10 a.m. in London.
