Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.

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 Romaine Bostick, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.

- Akami Technologies (AKAM) shares are down 7% in extended trading, after the software company gave an outlook for adjusted earnings that is weaker than expected for both the first quarter and the full year.

- Deere (DEER) shares climbed the most in six years as the world’s largest farm-machinery maker boosted its annual profit outlook, anticipating a long-awaited upturn in the agriculture economy. Deere shares rose as much as 13%, the most intraday since March 2020, to an all-time high. The stock, one of the biggest gainers in the S&P 500 on Thursday, has rallied 44% this year on increased hopes for a recovery.

- Klarna (KLAR) has reported two consecutive quarters of losses and is struggling to convince investors to hold on for future profit, less than six month after its initial public offering. Shares in the payments firm are on course for their worst day since listing after Klarna reported a pretax loss of $241 million for last year, even as it pulled in record revenue. As the Stockholm-headquartered firm has expanded beyond its original buy-now-pay-later product into more lucrative longer-term credit, it’s had to set aside more money for potentially souring loans. Klarna has also increased its spending on technology, product development and marketing. In 2024, the firm reeled in a pretax profit of $33 million.

Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- Cheesecake Factory (CAKE) shares fell after the restaurant chain’s comp sales during the fourth quarter came in below the average analyst estimate. The results spurred a downgrade at Stephens.

- Walmart (WMT) stocks dropped after citing a “hiring recession” and pressures on shoppers as it forecast less growth in earnings this year than Wall Street was expecting. “There’s a whole lot of the year to go in what’s still a pretty fluid, dynamic macro backdrop,” Chief Financial Officer John David Rainey said in an interview Thursday. “When you look at whatever your favorite macro statistic to point to is — the hiring recession, the fact that student delinquencies are up, there’s still trade uncertainty — we think it’s prudent to be somewhat measured with the outlook right now.”

- Wayfair (W) shares slumped as much as 16%, hitting a four-month low intraday, after the home goods retailer said it expects mid-single-digit topline growth year-over-year for the first quarter, which Jefferies considers to be conservative and attributable to colder weather to start the year. The company also said during the conference call that it sees 1Q gross margins “likely at the low end” of the 30% to 31% guidance range.
