On this episode of Stock Movers, we take a look at some of the week's biggest gainers and decliners:

-SanDisk (SNDK) ended the week higher. The digital storage company is extending its blistering rally as the top performing stock in the S&P 500 Index. The gains come as investors shift their bets from the biggest technology companies that are pledging billions of dollars in capital expenditures to build out artificial intelligence technology to the beneficiaries of that spending. The group includes memory storage makers as well as other stocks associated with AI infrastructure. 

-Humana (HUM) shares dropped at the end of the week following a proposal from the Trump administration to limit federal payments to the plans, known as Medicare Advantage, next year. Some of the pullback in government support has been percolating for a long time, but there’s no sign things will turn around soon. As Trump increasingly faces criticism for Americans’ affordability challenges, he has begun targeting insurers. In December, he said insurance companies “are making so much money, and they have to make less, a lot less.”

-Deckers (DECK) ended the week higher after the owner of the Ugg and Hoka footwear brands raised its annual earnings and sales forecast, beating the average analyst estimate. Analysts note strength in the retailer’s direct-to-consumer (DTC) channels in the United States.

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

On this episode of stock movers: 

-Apple (AAPL) shares are little changed after the tech giant delivered record quarterly sales and a better-than-anticipated forecast for the current period, even as the company warned that rising component costs are threatening to squeeze margins. Revenue will rise 13% to 16% in the second quarter, which runs through March, the company said Thursday during a conference call with analysts. That exceeded the 10% projected by Wall Street — showing that Apple can maintain momentum after an iPhone-fueled sales surge in the December quarter.

-Sandisk (SNDK) shares rally after the computer hardware and storage company’s second-quarter revenue beat expectations. The company said it sees adjusted earnings per share between $12 and $14 in the third quarter. Wall Street had expected $4.95 a share, spurring several analysts to raise their ratings and price targets for the stock, which is up roughly 160% to start the year and around $1,600% since it went public last February.

-Verizon (VZ) shares rise after the wireless provider reported its biggest gain in mobile phone subscribers since 2019 and announced plans to buy back as much as $25 billion in shares, signaling turnaround efforts under new Chief Executive Officer Dan Schulman are starting to bear fruit.
