Hewlett Packard Drops, Circle Internet Surges, First Solar Slumps as Net Sales Outlook Disappoints

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Hewlett Packard (HP) shares drop after the company gave a profit outlook for the current quarter that may fall short of estimates, citing tariffs and the rising price of memory chips.

- Circle Internet (CRCL) shares surge after the company said strong demand for its stablecoin bolstered profit and revenue during the fourth-quarter downturn in digital assets. Revenue increased 77% to $770 million from the year-earlier period, and net income was $133 million, or 43 cents a share, with adjusted earnings beating consensus estimates.

- First Solar (FSLR) shares slump after the company reported a 2026 net sales forecast which missed the average analyst estimate. Baird analyst Ben Kallo downgraded the stock on mixed 4Q results “and several question marks in forward outlook” as management comments have left him “incrementally negative” as the company remains hesitant with booking new business.
