On this episode of Stock Movers:
Listen for comprehensive cross-platform coverage of the US market close as heard on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Isabelle Lee, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.

- United Airlines (UAL) shares rose as much as 3.9% and American Airlines (AAL) shares gained as much as 9.6% after United Chief Executive Officer Scott Kirby floated a possible combination between the two airlines

- Globalstar (GSAT) shares rise 9.2% in premarket trading after Amazon (AMZN) agreed to acquire the company for $90 a share in cash and stock to extend satellite coverage and enable direct-to-device services. That represents a nearly 117% premium over Globalstar’s price from late October, before Bloomberg reported that the company was exploring a potential sale. The deal is expected to close in 2027

- Wells Fargo (WFC) fell short across its primary income streams in the first quarter, with net interest income and noninterest income lower than analysts' estimates. Wells Fargo's shares slumped 4.8% after the earnings report, with the company's results and unchanged 2026 guidance likely to cause modest disappointment and weigh on the bank's shares.
