5. Coeur Mining Inc. (NYSE:CDE)
Coeur Mining snapped a two-day losing streak on Friday, adding 5.94 percent to finish at $17.13 apiece, as investor sentiment was bolstered by the surge in prices of precious metals.
The stock rallied alongside its mining counterparts, tracking the 2-percent rally in spot prices of silver and gold, as investors fled to safer assets amid uncertainties from the ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
On Friday, Israel announced that it would continue to attack Iran, despite Washington’s 10-day halt, after the Islamic Republic failed to heed warnings against striking its civilians.
The heightened tensions, however, attracted funds to silver and gold miners on bets that the metals’ surge would spill over to their profit margins in the future.
Coeur Mining Inc. (NYSE:CDE) is a US-based gold and silver producer that owns the Las Chispas silver-gold mine in Sonora, Mexico; the Palmarejo gold-silver complex in Chihuahua, Mexico; the Rochester silver-gold mine in Nevada; the Kensington gold mine in Alaska; and the Wharf gold mine in South Dakota.
In addition, Coeur Mining Inc. (NYSE:CDE) also owns the Silvertip polymetallic critical minerals exploration project in British Columbia.
Last year, its net income soared by 895 percent to $585.9 million from $58.9 million in 2024. Consolidated revenues increased by 96 percent to $2.07 billion from $1.054 billion year-on-year.
Of the total, gold sales amounted to $1.343 billion, or an 83 percent jump from the $734.9 million in 2024, while silver sales increased by 128 percent to $726.4 million from $319.1 million year-on-year.
4. Entergy Corp. (NYSE:ETR)
Entergy rallied for a fifth straight day on Friday, jumping 6.82 percent to close at $109.88 apiece, as investors gobbled up shares after clinching a new deal with Meta Platforms that would result in as much as $2.65 billion in customer savings for its customers.
In a statement, Entergy Corp. (NYSE:ETR) said that it earned the backing of Meta for its hyperscale data center in Northeast Louisiana, under which the latter would shoulder the full cost of service, including resilience and storm-related investments that otherwise would be borne by existing customers.
Additionally, Meta would contribute to The Power to Care program, energy efficiency initiatives, incremental carbon-free nuclear energy solutions, as well as renewable energy options, including up to 2,500 megawatts of additional solar.
This, in turn, could support $2 billion in additional savings for Entergy customers, on top of the $650 million announced previously.
“This agreement reflects what’s possible when strong partners align around long-term growth and value,” Entergy Corp. (NYSE:ETR) President and CEO Phillip May said.
“Working with our customers, regulators and state leaders, we are making targeted investments that strengthen reliability, support economic development and deliver meaningful benefits to customers—all while keeping energy rates affordable, which aligns perfectly with Meta’s Ratepayer Protection Pledge and Entergy’s Fair Share Plus pledge,” he added.
3. First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE:AG)
First Majestic soared by 7.04 percent on Friday to close at $20.68 apiece, as investors loaded portfolios in mining stocks amid the rally in prices of precious metals.
During the session, the spot prices of silver and gold were up by more than 2 percent, as investors poured funds into the assets to mitigate risks from the ongoing tensions in the Middle East.
The cautious sentiment was further fueled by Israel’s announcement on the same day that it would continue to attack Iran for failing to heed its warning against attacking the Israeli civilians.
Optimism, however, spilled over to mining stocks on expectations that the current surge in prices would bolster their profit margins in the future.
First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE:AG) is one of the largest silver producers in the world, with operations in Mexico and the US. It owns and operates various mine sites, namely San Dimas, Los Gatos, Encantada, and Santa Elena, among others.
Last year, First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE:AG) swung to a net income of $211 million from a $101.9 million net loss in 2024. Revenues soared by 124 percent to $1.26 billion from $560.6 million year-on-year.
2. ADMA Biologics Inc. (NASDAQ:ADMA)
ADMA Biologics snapped a five-day losing streak on Friday, soaring 11.58 percent to finish at $9.25 apiece after debunking a short seller report that criticized the company for allegedly issuing misleading information about its growth.
In a statement, ADMA Biologics Inc. (NASDAQ:ADMA) denied Culper Research’s criticism of the demand for Asceniv, saying that it has increased over the past two years based on distributor and customer data.
Additionally, it refuted claims of channel stuffing, saying that there was a “misunderstanding” as distributors must maintain a level of safety stock to ensure that patients prevent from missing treatments.
ADMA Biologics Inc. (NASDAQ:ADMA) also said that its financial statements were clean and that independent auditors reviewed the books with an unqualified opinion.
“ADMA is committed to leading a new age of manufacturing, marketing, and commercializing specialty biologic products for the prevention and treatment of infectious diseases in the immunocompromised and other patients at risk for certain infections, and creating long-term value for its stockholders,” it said.
Despite the clarification, a shareholder law firm remained firm on investigating the short seller report to see if the listed firm may have violated federal securities laws.
1. Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U)
Unity Software climbed by 13.57 percent on Friday to close at $19.46 apiece after raising its preliminary revenue growth outlook for the first quarter of the year, on the back of strong performance from its Vector business.
In an updated report, Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U) said it now expects revenues to reach $505 million to $508 million, or 3.7 percent to 5.2 percent higher than the $480 million to $490 million targeted previously
Adjusted EBITDA is also expected to be between $130 million and $135 million, as compared with the $105 million to $110 million earlier.
The projected results were attributed to the strong performance of Unity Vector, a $155 million projected revenue from Create, and $352 million from Grow.
“Unity Vector continues to deliver robust growth each quarter, driving results meaningfully above our guidance. Today’s actions will accelerate Vector’s impact on our business, enhancing both revenue growth and profitability,” Unity Software Inc. (NYSE:U) CEO Matt Bromberg said.
Meanwhile, the company is embarking on a new growth initiative that would see its exit from two businesses, namely ironSource Ads Network and Supersonic game publishing.
