Description
Today's biggest winners and losers in the stock market.
On this episode of Stock Movers:
- Akamai Technologies (AKAM) shares soar 23% in premarket trading after the cloud provider inked a seven-year $11.6 billion deal to provide computing power to Anthropic. Analysts say the deal should boost Akamai’s growth and its profitability profile looks attractive, given the contract is entirely focused on CPUs.

- Costco Wholesale (COST) quarterly profits surpassed Wall Street’s estimates after the company recorded a benefit related to tariff refunds.
