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

- AMD (AMD) landed a major order from Oracle for its forthcoming MI450 chips, a sign it’s making headway in its pursuit of Nvidia Corp. in the booming market for AI processors. Oracle will put 50,000 of the semiconductors in data center computers starting in the third quarter of 2026, according to a statement Tuesday. The systems will contain AMD processors and networking components. It’s also another endorsement of AMD technology. The Santa Clara, California-based company is working to become a credible alternative to Nvidia, the dominant provider of AI processors. Shares of the chipmaker rose as much as 4% in New York on Monday.

- US bank stocks stabilized Friday as a new set of earnings from regional lenders was solid, helping ease concerns over credit quality that sparked a sharp selloff. The S&P Regional Banks Select Industry Index jumped 1.7% Friday, with Zions Bancorp (ZION) and Truist Financial Corp among the top performers. The modest rebound follows a 6.3% plunge on Thursday, led by Zions and Western Alliance Bancorp (WAL) after they said they were victims of fraud on loans to funds that invest in distressed commercial mortgages. 

- Gold’s rally has awed Wall Street for months. Gold miners have done even better - so well that investors are now asking whether historic gains in shares of Newmont (NEM) Agnico Eagle Mines (AEM) and their competitors have gone too far. The NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index (GDM) was down 6% at 4:10 p.m. in New York on Friday, the biggest drop since May, while bullion fell more than 2%. Newmont sank 7.6%, Agnico Eagle Mines slid 6% and Barrick Mining Corp. retreated 6.5%. The trio had each enjoyed gains of more than 100% this year, while gold gained just over 60%.
