By SNF Research · Independent market intelligence from Sunday Night Futures LLC
MSFT +4.82% and PLTR +5.11% lead a tech surge as RKLB rockets +6.15% and LCID spikes +8.4% intraday.
Friday afternoon session is seeing concentrated buying in high-beta names. MSFT clearing $369.64 and PLTR holding $112.72 are the clearest institutional footprints — both moving against a flat-to-negative QQQ ($713.906, -0.34%). ASTS is the session standout at $73.01 (+11.06%), pulling space/satellite names with it; RKLB at $85.685 confirms the move. AMD's -2.07% slide to $522.11 is the outlier drag.
Watch: PLTR $115 as next technical resistance intraday; MSFT $370 round-number hold into the close. LCID needs to defend $5.50 or the $5.555 print fades fast.
