Summary · why it matters

Boeing shares fell 1.9% in premarket trading after The Wall Street Journal reported the planemaker identified a software glitch on its 737 MAX that can disable an automated navigation function during a landing following a missed approach, prompting concerns among industry officials and a review by U.S. regulators. Kodiak Sciences surged 31.9% in premarket trading after releasing topline results from its pivotal DAYBREAK Phase 3 study evaluating two investigational therapies, Zenkuda and KSI-501, in patients with wet age-related macular degeneration, with the move indicating the data met or exceeded the study's primary endpoint of non-inferiority in visual acuity gains versus aflibercept. Roblox fell 4% after Jefferies downgraded the stock to Underperform from Hold and cut its price target to $38, arguing the roughly 30% rally following second-quarter earnings had priced in an overly optimistic bookings outlook. Circle Internet Group fell 3.5% after announcing Chief Financial Officer Jeremy Fox-Geen plans to step down after more than five years in the role, remaining through the end of December 2026 while the company searches for a successor.
