Nike, AeroVironment And Coinbase Are Among Top 10 Large Cap Gainers Last Week (June 23-27): Are The Others In Your Portfolio?

Benzinga examined the prospects for <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">many investors' favorite stocks</a> over the last week — here's a look at some of our top stories.
Wall Street surged this week as easing geopolitics and a potential pause in U.S.-China tariffs lifted sentiment. The S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq hit record highs, boosted significantly by Nvidia (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), whose stock jumped by about 10% to record its highest valuation — $3.8 trillion — overtaking Microsoft (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) as the world's most valuable company
The tech rally reflected strong earnings from Nvidia's AI-centric chip business and supplier Micron (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MU#NASDAQ">MU</a>), while broader market gains were bolstered by renewed risk appetite in equities.
Next week, investors will track the June jobs report, rhetoric on tariffs — including the July 8 "Liberation Day" deadline — and upcoming July 4 tax‑and‑spending legislative actions that could influence rates and yields.
Benzinga provides daily reports on the stocks most popular with investors. Here are a few of this past week's most bullish and bearish posts that are worth another look.

<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/tech/25/06/46081553/nvidias-jensen-huang-sparks-quantum-stock-frenzy">"Nvidia's Big Moment Is Back—Stock Soared 500% The Last Time This Happened"</a>, by Piero Cingari, reports that Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) is forming a bullish golden cross — a 50-day moving average crossing above the 200‑day — after recovering from earlier tariff-induced weakness, which historically has preceded massive rallies, with gains as high as 800%, fueled by easing U.S.-China trade tensions and strong earnings.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NYSE">PLTR</a>) shares reached record highs — up roughly 500% over the past year and 93% year-to-date — driven by strong momentum (Benzinga Pro momentum score of 99), surging AI and government contracts including a $795 million U.S. Army deal, and positive Wall Street sentiment such as Loop Capital's raised price target.

AeroVironment Inc.

What To Know: The drone and defense contractor reported fourth-quarter earnings of $1.61 per share, above analyst expectations of $1.42, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Quarterly revenue came in at $275.1 million, beating the consensus estimate of $242.7 million and representing a 40% year-over-year increase.

12 Industrials Stocks Moving In Wednesday's Intraday Session

Stifel analyst Jonathan Siegmann reiterated the Buy rating on AeroVironment, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVAV#NASDAQ">AVAV</a>) on Wednesday <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/AVAV/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">with a price forecast of $240</a>.
The company released its fourth-quarter results after Tuesday&#8217;s closing bell. AeroVironment reported quarterly earnings of $1.61 per share, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/06/46083155/aerovironment-stock-sinks-despite-better-than-expected-q4-report-heres-why" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">which beat the $1.42 analyst consensus estimate</a>.
Quarterly revenue came in at &nbsp;$275.05 million, beating the Street estimate of&nbsp;$242.69 million.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/06/45896929/trump-launches-aviation-overhaul-archer-joby-new-horizon-aerovironment-rally-as-us-targets-drone-evtol-supersonic-comeback" rel="noreferrer noopener">Trump Launches Aviation Overhaul: Archer, Joby, New Horizon, AeroVironment Rally As US Targets Drone, eVTOL, Supersonic Comeback</a>
The analyst reiterated a Buy rating on AeroVironment, citing its strong positioning as a pure-play next-gen defense tech firm with accelerating sales and earnings, which he predicts to fuel investor interest and support multiple expansions.
In the recently reported quarter, Siegmann noted that the outperformance was entirely due to stronger-than-expected Loitering Munitions, or LMS, revenue of $138 million, well above their $95 million forecast.
Following the update, management issued the fiscal year 2026 guidance, which aligned with Siegmann&#8217;s earlier projections and the previously filed S-4.
The analyst also viewed the planned acceleration in capital expenditure spending positively, expecting investors to increasingly favor organic growth efforts in next-gen defense technology.
Adjusted EBITDA of $62 million (22.4% margin) surpassed Siegmann&#8217;s estimate of $53 million (22.5%) and the $55 million consensus (22.7%). The beat was mainly due to stronger revenue and lower SG&amp;A and R&amp;D costs as a percentage of sales, though partially offset by a lower gross margin of 39.5% versus the expected 42.0%.
Siegmann also noted that fourth quarter adjusted EBITDA was higher than all but four of the company&#8217;s annual EBITDA results since fiscal year 2025.
On the earnings call, analysts questioned the sharp 48% quarter-over-quarter drop in the company&#8217;s unfunded backlog.
Management explained this was tied to the expiration of an Army IDIQ contract under PEO Missiles &amp; Space for Switchblade drones.
The Army has since shifted procurement to a different IDIQ contract managed by PEO Soldier.
According to the analyst, all Switchblade-related obligations in the current U.S. government fiscal year have come through the PEO Soldier contract, highlighting continued demand under the new vehicle.
The recent merger with BlueHalo expands the company&#8217;s footprint into key defense areas like space, counter-drone systems, and missiles, core priorities for the Department of Defense.
Siegmann expects a sharp increase in organic EBITDA contributions from both the legacy AeroVironment business and the newly added BlueHalo operations.
Price Action: AVAV shares are trading higher by 21.6% to $234.97&nbsp;at last check Wednesday.

AeroVironment Posts Better-Than-Expected Earnings, Joins QuantumScape, Bumble, BlackBerry And Other Big Stocks Moving Higher On Wednesday

AeroVironment shares are trading higher after the company reported better-than-expected Q4 financial results.

U.S. futures were flat on Wednesday after a positive day of trading on Tuesday. Futures of major benchmark indices were slightly positive.
Investors hoped the ceasefire between Iran and Israel would hold and help calm geopolitical tensions. President Donald Trump declared Tuesday that a ceasefire between the two adversaries was back in effect, even as reports of renewed hostilities raised doubts about its durability.
&#8220;Israel is not going to attack Iran. All planes will turn around and head home, while doing a friendly ‘Plane Wave&#8217; to Iran,&#8221; Trump posted on Truth Social, adding, &#8220;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/politics/25/06/46072859/trump-says-israel-is-not-going-to-attack-iran-after-ceasefire-violation-turn-around-and-head-home">the Ceasefire is in effect!</a>&#8220;
The 10-year Treasury bond yielded 4.29% and the two-year bond was at 3.79%. The CME Group's FedWatch <a href="https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/interest-rates/cme-fedwatch-tool.html">tool</a>&#8216;s projections show markets pricing a 79,3% likelihood of the Federal Reserve keeping the current interest rates unchanged in its July meeting.

Insights From Analysts:
Jurrien Timmer of Fidelity Investments said in a series of X posts that the S&amp;P 500 index was rangebound as it flirts with the all-time high and is heavily dependent on the movement of the Magnificent 7 stocks.
&#8220;The correction this year held at the 2021 high, and so far the recovery has been bounded by the 2025 high. That seems like a reasonable range to me,&#8221; he said.
He also predicted that the 20% &#8216;V&#8217; shaped recovery in the index from April lows could turn &#8220;to an M from here.&#8221; He pointed out that &#8220;there are only a few historical analogs left in which the market continues to make new highs so soon after drawing down 20%.&#8221;

Talking about the market breadth, he highlighted that the market has narrowed again, with only half of the stocks in the S&amp;P 500 trading above their various moving averages.
Meanwhile, he said the Magnificent 7, which led the downside in March and April, has led the upside in May but remains below its all-time high set in December. &#8220;Given the degree of concentration of these companies, wherever the Mag 7 goes, so goes the index as a whole.&#8221;
