Listen for comprehensive cross-platform coverage of the US market close as heard on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Romaine Bostick, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Trilogy Metals (TMQ) closed with a 211% gain Tuesday as the White House said US will take a 10% stake in the company. BMO analyst Rene Cartier says “The binding letter of intent with the US Department of War highlights a significant milestone in the advancement of exploration and development of the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects.”

- Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) shares closed 3% higher today, building on yesterday's gains. Jefferies upgraded to buy from hold following the chipmaker’s deal with OpenAI. Analyst Blayne Curtis said “AMD will still have to hit milestones, but this is a strong validation of AMD’s AI roadmap and the level of AI demand in general.”

- Oracle (ORCL) shares fell after a report that the company's profit margin in its cloud computing business is lower than estimated. Oracle generated $900 million in revenue from server rentals, but only $125 million in gross profit, according to internal corporate documents. The company's gross margin has been weighed down by heavy spending on chips and data center capacity, with its overall gross margin at 67.3% in its most recent earnings report.
