Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) reached a new all-time high after releasing Gemini 3, the company’s newest and most intelligent model family. Loop increased their price target from $260 to $320 (7% upside) and upgraded the name from “hold” to “buy”. They now view concerns about AI headwinds to Alphabet’s core search business as unwarranted, noting that AI overviews and AI mode have actually enhanced search results. Needham maintained their $330 price target (10% upside). Needham believes Google’s proprietary chips and integrated tech stack strengthen its moat, improve unit economics, and create a powerful flywheel effect.
Crocs, Inc. (CROX) climbed through its 50-day moving average on limited news.
Biogen Inc. (BIIB) reached a new 52-week high, boosted by a broad healthcare rally. The company will present new Leqembi data at next week’s 18th Clinical Trials on Alzheimer’s Disease (CTAD) conference in San Diego.
Illumina, Inc. (ILMN) raised ~$85M by selling 1 million shares of Grail Technologies. Illumina still owns 3.5M shares or ~9% of the company.
Mattel, Inc. (MAT) rose after Jefferies cited survey data indicating toys are leading holiday gifting, with nostalgia-driven brands such as Lego and Barbie seeing a resurgence.

Precigen, Inc. (PGEN) declined as Director Randal J Kirk sold ~3M shares.
Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN) fell through its 50-day and 100-day moving averages. Loop raised their price target from $300 to $360 (63% upside). They are confident that an AWS inflection is underway, driven by accelerating revenue growth, meaningful deals, and a 22% y/y backlog increase. Loop believes OpenAI’s $38B commitment and several large post quarter deals support management’s view that AWS can sustain ~20% annual revenue growth.
Nvidia Corp (NVDA) fell through its 50-day and 100-day moving averages despite announcing revenue, earnings, and guidance which blew away expectations. The company delivered revenue of $57B (66% y/y) vs. $55.2B expected, EPS of $1.30 (67% y/y) vs. $1.21 expected, and 4th quarter revenue guidance of $65B (65% y/y) at the midpoint vs. $62B expected. Management reiterated that the company remains on track to achieve its previously announced $500B 2026 forecast for Blackwell and Rubin chips, with additional upside potential. Evercore increased their price target from $261 to $352 (97% upside) and reaffirmed NVDA as their top pick.
Coinbase Global, Inc. (COIN) followed bitcoin’s -10.37% move lower.
