Summary · why it matters

Corporate upheaval and strategic announcements drove sharp moves in several stocks this week. MongoDB plunged 18.5% on Monday and is on course to end the week down around 14.7% after President and CEO Chirantan Desai resigned with immediate effect to lead a new AI initiative at Meta Platforms; former chief executive Dev Ittycheria returns as interim CEO, and the company reaffirmed its third-quarter and full-year guidance. Synopsys surged 12.8% on Thursday and has gained around 9.2% over the week after setting long-term targets at its 2026 Investor Day in New York, projecting fiscal 2027 revenue of $11.1 billion to $11.2 billion, roughly 15% growth at the midpoint, non-GAAP earnings of $19.04 to $19.12 per share, free cash flow of around $3.1 billion, and plans to repurchase approximately $1 billion of stock, alongside a partnership with OpenAI on GPT-Synopsys and a multi-year IP agreement with Amazon. Mattel jumped 18.8% on Thursday and is on course to close the week up 13.6% after The Wall Street Journal reported that Authentic Brands Group has approached the toy maker with an offer that could value it at more than $20 per share, or around $6 billion or more. Nike fell 5.3% over the week to its lowest level since 2013 after mixed fiscal first-quarter results, with adjusted earnings of 48 cents per share topping expectations of 44 cents but revenue of $11.21 billion missing estimates of $11.35 billion and falling 5% on a currency-neutral basis. Fair Isaac is down 22.7% for the week after Bloomberg reported that the Federal Housing Finance Agency plans to require lenders to use credit data from only two of the three major bureaus for mortgages sold to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
