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


- Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD) saw a modest weekly gain as Paramount continues to try to counter Netflix's bid to buy it. Larry Ellison is throwing his personal fortune behind Paramount Skydance’s bid for Warner Bros. Discovery Inc., aiming to give his son’s company an advantage in a fiercely contested takeover battle with Netflix. Both suitors moved on Monday to strengthen the financial backing for their offers, though they stopped short of increasing their bids. Netflix refinanced a portion of its planned $59 billion of debt as a way to ensure a lasting investment-grade rating — a key advantage it holds over the lower-rated Paramount.

- Sable (SOC) saw its shares skyrocket on word that a federal regulator approved the restart of Sable Offshore Corp.’s contested California oil pipeline that leaked 3,000 barrels of crude along the Santa Barbara coastline a decade ago. Sable’s shares rose about 30% Tuesday after it said its plan was signed off on by the Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials and Safety Administration. The move follows last week’s determination by the regulator that portions of the key oil conduit, the Las Flores Pipeline System, is under the domain of the federal government and not California. State environmental groups are poised to push back.


- Nvidia (NVDA) agreed to a licensing deal with artificial intelligence startup Groq, furthering its investments in companies connected to the AI boom and gaining the right to add a new type of technology to its products. The world’s largest publicly traded company has paid for the right to use Groq’s technology and will integrate its chip design into future products. Some of the startup’s executives are leaving to join Nvidia to help with that effort, the companies said. Groq will continue as an independent company with a new chief executive, it said Wednesday in a post on its website. Shares of Nvidia rallied on the news.
