"Tesla stock is recouping some lost ground, tacking on 1% today after last week's disappointing EV delivery numbers. Canaccord Genuity analysts remain bullish on the stock, keeping a 'buy' rating with a $420 price target attached."
"Micron is already down more than 20% from its peak three weeks ago, and relief may not be coming anytime soon. Bloomberg reported SK Hynix's planned U.S. ADR listing, which could raise as much as $10 billion, threatens to give investors another DRAM option to choose from."
"CrowdStrike is betting big on itself, boosting its share buyback program by $500 million and catapulting the total program to $1.5 billion."
The markets are starting the week cautiously following a U.S. Air Force rescue operation and shifting geopolitical headlines regarding a potential ceasefire in Iran.

Oil prices remain elevated above $100 per barrel, while traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has increased significantly. Tesla's stock is recovering slightly, and Micron faces pressure from a new competitor. CrowdStrike is expanding its share buyback program, and Goldman Sachs has upgraded Netflix's stock rating.
