The stock hit an intraday high of $19.79 and a low of $17.81, with a 52-week range of $22.69 to $11.57.

The rise came after Rivian increased its 2026 delivery forecast to 65,000 to 70,000 vehicles, up from 62,000 to 67,000.

The company reported strong production and delivery numbers for the second quarter.

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA ) Tesla’s stock fell 7.49%, closing at $393.45.

It reached an intraday high of $432.35 and a low of $389.3, with a 52-week range of $498.82 to $288.77.

Despite reporting second-quarter deliveries of 480,126 vehicles, surpassing estimates, the stock declined.

Analyst Gene Munster attributed the sell-off to factors such as buying on the rumor and high gas prices.

CrowdStrike Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWD ) CrowdStrike’s stock edged up 0.41%, closing at $193.98.

The stock’s intraday high was $199.53, with a low of $190.61, and a 52-week range of $199.53 to $85.68.

CrowdStrike began trading on a split-adjusted basis following its previously announced 4-for-1 stock split, with shareholders of record as of June 25 receiving three additional shares for each share held after the market closed on July 1.

The split did not change the company’s market value but reduced the per-share price and increased the number of outstanding shares.

SanDisk Corp.

SanDisk’s stock plunged 14.13%, closing at $1745.

The stock’s intraday high was $2052.54, with a low of $1693, and a 52-week range of $2354.39 to $40.1.

Sandisk shares declined as investors rotated out of high-momentum AI hardware and memory stocks, despite continued bullish long-term industry forecasts.

Mohan reiterated a Buy rating and raised his price target to $2,500 from $2,100, citing expectations that the NAND supply-demand imbalance would persist through 2027.

The Bank of America Securities analyst projected $9.1 billion in June-quarter revenue and $37.01 in earnings per share, above company guidance, but warned that increased output from China’s Yangtze Memory Technologies could accelerate NAND price declines if it expands beyond its domestic market.

Edge Stock Rankings indicate Apple stock has a Momentum score in the 74th percentile and a Value score in the 5th percentile.
