Shares of online work marketplace Upwork (NASDAQ:UPWK) fell 16.6% in the afternoon session after the company issued disappointing financial guidance for the upcoming quarter and reported a drop in a key user activity metric. The company's revenue forecast for the first quarter of 2026 was $194.5 million at the midpoint, falling 3.1% short of Wall Street's estimates. Adding to investor concerns, Upwork's Gross Services Volume, a measure of activity on the platform, declined by 5.6% year-over-year to 785,000. This weak outlook overshadowed the company's fourth-quarter results, which had beaten analysts' expectations. For the quarter, Upwork reported sales of $198.4 million and an adjusted profit of $0.36 per share, which was 15.5% above consensus estimates.

Shares of analog chips maker onsemi (NASDAQ:ON) jumped 3.1% in the afternoon session after the company reported mixed fourth-quarter results where earnings per share beat analyst estimates, but revenue guidance for the upcoming quarter fell short. The analog chip maker posted an adjusted EPS of $0.64, beating the consensus estimate of $0.62. Revenue came in at $1.53 billion, in line with expectations but representing an 11.2% decline from the previous year. However, the positive earnings surprise was tempered by the company's forecast for the first quarter, which projected both revenue and earnings below Wall Street's projections. Despite the weak outlook, investors appeared to focus on the better-than-expected profit and a strong free cash flow margin of 31.7% for the quarter. The stock's rally represented a significant reversal from an initial 4.6% drop immediately following the earnings release, suggesting a shift in sentiment as the market digested the full report.

Shares of financial services giant Charles Schwab (NYSE:SCHW) fell 6.9% in the afternoon session after the launch of a new artificial intelligence tool by financial software provider Altruist sparked concerns about disruption in the wealth management sector. The tech platform announced a new AI-powered tax planning tool, which triggered a selloff across several wealth management stocks. The news raised worries that artificial intelligence could upend the traditional business models of financial services firms. Other companies in the sector, including Raymond James Financial and Stifel Financial, also saw their stock prices fall as investors reacted to the potential competitive threat posed by new technology.

The investment bank's analysis concluded that MongoDB's business benefited from "durable economics, mission-critical platform roles and tangible AI product innovation." The note suggested these factors provided the company with insulation during a period of uncertainty. Goldman Sachs maintained a constructive outlook, stating that there were "credible paths for AI to reinforce rather than undermine long-term growth" for the software company. The rally also occurred amid a broader advance in technology stocks, which saw the Nasdaq Composite index climb.

The upgrade was based on the analyst firm's expectation for an upswing in the industrial market. KeyBanc noted that this potential upcycle could benefit Park-Ohio if the company successfully executed its internal plans. The new price target represented a 48% premium over the stock's price at the time of the report, signaling strong confidence in its future performance.

Shares of go-to-market intelligence provider ZoomInfo (NASDAQ:GTM) fell 6.4% in the afternoon session after the company issued a weak financial forecast for 2026, which overshadowed its fourth-quarter earnings beat and led to at least one analyst downgrade. While ZoomInfo reported fourth-quarter earnings and revenue that topped analyst estimates, investors focused on the company's muted growth outlook for 2026. The company's guidance for the full year implied only about 1% growth at the midpoint, which analysts at RBC Capital called "underwhelming." In response to the weak forecast, Citizens JMP Securities downgraded the stock to Market Underperform from Market Perform, citing "increasing competition" and concerns about a "persistent 90% net retention rate." RBC Capital and other firms also lowered their price targets on the stock.
