Riskier Fringes of Market Are Leaving Blue-Chip Stocks Behind
The riskiest corners of the US stock market are on pace for the biggest gain since November relative to larger and more stable peers, a vote of confidence in the economy's resilience amid uncertainty about tariffs. A UBS Group AG basket of 100 stocks with low scores on measures including financial health or efficiency — names like AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc. and GameStop Corp. — is up 11% in May, triple the advance of the blue-chip Dow Jones Industrial Average and almost double that of the S&P 500 Index.

Light & Wonder, Rocket Lab, AMC Entertainment, LifeStance Health Group, and Xerox Stocks Trade Up, What You Need To Know
A number of stocks jumped in the morning session after the major indices rebounded (Nasdaq +2.0%, S&P 500 +1.5%) as President Trump postponed the planned 50% tariff on European Union imports, shifting the start date to July 9, 2025. Companies with substantial business ties to Europe likely had some relief as the delay reduced near-term cost pressures and preserved cross-border demand. The stock market overreacts to news, and big price drops can present good opportunities to buy high-quality stocks. Among others, the following stocks were impacted: Gaming Solutions company Light & Wonder (NASDAQ:LNW) jumped 6.4%. Is now the time to buy Light & Wonder?

Rocket Lab's shares are extremely volatile and have had 69 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Rocket Lab and indicate this news significantly impacted the market's perception of the business. The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 6 months ago when the stock gained 53.4% on the news that the company reported impressive third-quarter results and provided an optimistic EBITDA forecast for the next quarter, which blew past analysts' expectations. Its revenue and EBITDA both outperformed Wall Street's estimates in the quarter. The performance was largely driven by strong demand in its space systems segment. Zooming out, we think this was a very good quarter. Rocket Lab is up 13.5% since the beginning of the year, but at $28.33 per share, it is still trading 10.3% below its 52-week high of $31.57 from January 2025.

AMC Entertainment Sets Memorial Day Holiday-Weekend Records for Admissions Revenue, Food and Beverage Revenue, and Total Revenue, on the Way to AMC's Biggest Revenue Weekend So Far in 2025
LEAWOOD, Kan.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--AMC Entertainment (NYSE:AMC), the largest theatrical exhibitor in the United States and the world, today announced a record-breaking Memorial Day holiday weekend performance. From Thursday through the Monday holiday, AMC set all-time weekend records for the Memorial Day holiday for admissions revenue, food & beverage revenue and overall revenue at its domestic locations. In terms of the number of guests in its theatres, both in the United States and globally AMC and ODEON Cinemas also recorded their highest attended weekend and highest attended 5-day period of 2025. All told, more than 7 million moviegoers visited an AMC in the United States or an ODEON Cinemas location internationally from Thursday through Monday. AMC's 5-day performance for overall revenue (admissions revenue plus food and beverage revenue) ranks as the Company's third-best 5-day period in more than a decade. As part of the successful weekend in the U.S., AMC recorded its biggest food and beverage revenue over a 5-day period this decade, and second biggest in Company history. Domestically, it was also AMC's most attended weekend of the year and its highest-attended Memorial Day weekend since 2013. Also, this past weekend domestically at AMC, each of Friday, Saturday, and Sunday were the most attended of all the respective Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays of 2025. AMC's strong results reflect broader momentum across the theatrical industry, as media outlets report a record-setting Memorial Day box office, driven by the robust openings of LILO & STITCH and MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – THE FINAL RECKONING. Audiences for both films filled AMC's extensive network of premium screens, including IMAX, Dolby Cinema and RealD 3D. AMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron commented: 'Finally it would appear that our industry has turned a corner. Since early April, weekend after weekend, moviegoers have been demonstrating their preference for theatrical moviegoing. A record-setting Memorial Day holiday is yet another sign of the continued strength and relevance of moviegoing in 2025. With many more potentially huge movies coming in June all the way through the end of 2025, and beyond that deeply into 2026 as well, we firmly expect to be enjoying a robust theatrical box office as we look ahead.' Aron continued: 'This record-setting Memorial Day weekend underscores the long-standing truth that when exceptional films meet unmatched theatrical experiences, audiences respond in a big way. We are especially grateful to our studio partners at Disney and Paramount, as well as the filmmakers, casts, and crews behind LILO & STITCH and MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE – THE FINAL RECKONING for their creating stories and delivering performances that truly resonated with moviegoers. Their creative efforts, combined with AMC's continued focus on enhanced sight, sound, and comfort, led to AMC Entertainment enjoying one of the most successful weekends in our company's history.'
