Why Rumble Stock Surged Today
Key Points Rumble stock surged today as investors focused in on a potential growth bet the company is aiming to make. The company wants to acquire high-performance-computing (HPC) specialist Northern Data in an all-stock deal. A buyout deal could be forthcoming, but there are still some big questions about Rumble's core streaming business. 10 stocks we like better than Rumble › Rumble (NASDAQ: RUM) stock posted gains in Monday's trading. The streaming and crypto player's share price closed out the day's trading up 3.3%, but had been up as much as 19.3% earlier in the session. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 (SNPINDEX: ^GSPC) and the Nasdaq Composite (NASDAQINDEX: ^IXIC) both dipped 0.3% on the day's trading. Rumble stock rocketed out of the gates at the start of today's trading in response to speculative bets relating to some moves that the company is aiming to make in the artificial intelligence (AI) space. The gains faded as the day's trading progressed, but the stock still ended the session solidly in the green. Rumble stock rises on potential AI expansion play Along with the second-quarter report that it published on Aug. 10, Rumble announced that it is interested in acquiring AI company Northern Data. The high-performance-computing (HPC) specialist has yet to signal that it's open to being acquired, and no valuation level has been set on Rumble's all-stock offer to acquire the company. Despite the shortage of information related to the potential buyout, investors showed signs of approval in today's trading and bid the streaming stock up to levels significantly exceeding yesterday's close. What's next for Rumble? While plays in the AI and cryptocurrency spaces could help boost valuation momentum, Rumble's recent quarterly results continue to raise questions about the company's outlook. The business posted a loss of $0.12 per share on sales of $25.08 million in the second quarter. For comparison, the average analyst estimate had called for a loss of $0.07 per share on sales of roughly $26.8 million. Rumble closed out the quarter with an average of 51 million monthly active users (MAUs), down from 59 million MAUs in this year's first quarter and 53 million MAUs in Q2 2024. On the other hand, average revenue per user was actually up 24% year over year to $0.42. On balance, Rumble streaming engagement and monetization still looks somewhat shaky -- and that puts added pressure on other growth initiatives. Do the experts think Rumble is a buy right now?

Ladakh goes on three-day hunger strike demanding statehood, extension of Sixth Schedule
KARGIL: A three-day hunger strike began here on Saturday morning in support of four demands, including statehood and extension of Sixth Schedule to the Union Territory of Ladakh. The hunger strike sponsored by Kargil Democratic Alliance (KDA) and Leh Apex Body (LAB) at Hussani Park in the town comes amid displeasure among the representatives of the two bodies over the Centre's delay in holding the next round of talks with them. KDA and LAB have been jointly spearheading the agitation over the past five years and have held several rounds of talks with the high-powered committee (HPC) of the Ministry of Home Affairs. "Together, we can build a future where Ladakh governs Ladakh. Three-day hunger strike (in support of) statehood for Ladakh, (its) inclusion under the Sixth Schedule of the constitution, separate Lok Sabha seats for Leh and Kargil regions and establishment of a public service commission (PSC)," reads a banner jointly put up by the KDA and LAB at the venue of the hunger strike. Prominent members of KDA carrying placards, some of which read 'end colonial treatment restore democracy, statehood - Sixth Schedule and strong Ladakh', gathered at the venue and chanted slogans, marking the beginning of their three-day hunger strike. "Today, hunger strike is part of our ongoing agitation in support of our four demands. We have observed strikes, fasts, protests and foot marches (from Ladakh to Delhi) over the past four years in support of our demands, some of which have been discussed with the centre but some are yet to be discussed. And among them, our most basic demand is statehood and Sixth Schedule," Co-chairman of the KDA Asgar Ali Karbalai said. He said there has been no concrete discussion on these two basic issues in the past four years. "And the last discussion we had in May, the HPC chairman and Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai and the home secretary had promised that from next month, our discussion will begin on statehood and Sixth Schedule." But no discussion has started yet and we feel that they are deliberately delaying it, Karbalai said. The delay in holding next round of talks had compelled them to go for the hunger strike, he said. "We had faith in the discussion, and we still do. But now they are compelling us to agitate, to protest and to close Ladakh. And this has started today in Kargil. This is KDA and LAB's joint programme for three days," he said. The core committee of the two bodies will discuss and chalkout the next course of action as the entire Ladakh is ready for the agitation which will continue if the government failed to respond, he added. Another prominent leader of KDA, Sajjad Kargili, alleged that the government had failed to keep its promise on the next round of talks. "So, once again, we are protesting peacefully and democratically. We hope that this message reaches the government. This colonial treatment should end with the people of Ladakh," he said. Kargili said democracy should be restored in Ladakh as soon as possible along with the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution, which the government had promised.

TeraWulf Q2 2025 revenue rises to $47.6 million as HPC takes shape
TeraWulf (WULF) reported Q2 revenue of $47.6 million, up 34% from $35.6 million a year earlier, driven by expanded mining capacity and higher bitcoin prices. Cost of revenue, excluding depreciation, rose 59% to $22.1 million, pushing costs to 46.4% of revenue compared to 39.1% in Q2 2024. Adjusted EBITDA fell to $14.5 million from $19.5 million. The company self-mined 485 bitcoin, down from 699 last year due to the April 2024 halving and the sale of its Nautilus facility, while operational hashrate increased to 12.2 EH/s from 8.0 EH/s. Power cost per bitcoin doubled to $45,555, reflecting the halving, higher network difficulty, and energy price volatility. TeraWulf expects to begin recognizing revenue from HPC hosting in Q3, starting with its 'WULF Den' deployment, followed by 'CB-1' in August and 'CB-2' in Q4. It also received interconnection approval for 500 MW at its Lake Mariner site, with additional capacity of up to 750 MW pending. At quarter-end, the company held $90 million in cash and bitcoin, against about $500 million in 2.75% convertible debt due 2030. At time of publication, WULF is up 3.6% during pre-market hours.
