DENVER, Colo., Aug 13, 2025 (247marketnews.com)- Wall Street is kicking off the morning with a bullish tailwind as several momentum names notch new 52-week highs, driven by surprise earnings beats, biotech catalysts, and heavyweight institutional backing.
WEBTOON Entertainment (NASDAQ:WBTN) shares surged into new territory after reporting Q2 2025 revenue of $348.3 million, an 8.5% YoY increase, with a net loss narrowed to $3.9 million from $76.6 million a year ago. Adjusted EPS came in at $0.07, down from $0.18, but above expectations. The standout catalyst? A blockbuster content deal with Disney to adapt IP from Marvel, Star Wars, and 20th Century Studios into its signature vertical-scroll format.
CEO Junkoo Kim called WEBTOON the “global destination for comics,” and with Q3 revenue guidance of $380M–$390M, the street appears to agree. The stock is setting fresh 52-week highs as it becomes a top narrative in the digital media space.
Venu (NYSE:VENU) continues its relentless climb, aiming for Cenorium’s $22.30 price target, after Vanguard Group disclosed a new 861,911-share stake worth $13 million in its latest 13F filing. The investment gives Vanguard roughly 2.3% ownership of the entertainment and venue disruptor, a bold institutional endorsement.
Further bullish momentum came from Aramark’s $10.125 million strategic investment and CEO J.W. Roth’s personal $5 million commitment to the company’s innovative NNN FireSuites project, a fusion of hospitality, real estate, and immersive entertainment.
The stock’s relentless upward trend underscores a growing consensus: VENU isn’t just building venues, it’s building an empire.
Cognition Therapeutics (NASDAQ:CGTX) joined the breakout ranks after announcing that the FDA has greenlit the design for its Phase 3 program of zervimesine (CT1812), a potential treatment for Alzheimer’s disease. The pivotal study will focus on patients with low p-tau217 levels, which prior studies showed responded with a 95% reduction in cognitive decline versus placebo.
This endorsement marks a major regulatory milestone and sends a clear signal to the market: CGTX is now a serious contender in the neurodegenerative space.
Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD) powered to a fresh 52-week high as momentum in AI semiconductors shows no signs of cooling. Institutional flows continue to chase AI-enabling infrastructure, and AMD remains a core holding in that trade. No major news today, but technicals and volume tell the story, investors want exposure to GPU horsepower.
Sapiens (NASDAQ:SPNS), a global provider of software solutions for the insurance industry, tagged new highs today. While earnings were posted last week, investor enthusiasm hasn’t slowed, with strong top-line growth and recurring revenue models keeping the bid under shares. No new headlines this morning, but SPNS is quietly carving out a leadership role in enterprise insurance tech.
Hudbay’s (NYSE:HBM) breakout comes amid ongoing bullish sentiment around copper, tied to constrained global supply and increasing demand from electric infrastructure. Hudbay’s diversified base metals portfolio and recent operational updates have caught the attention of materials-focused funds, pushing the stock into new highs.
Shares of Bloom Energy (NYSE:BE), a provider of solid oxide fuel cell tech, ripped to new highs as clean energy stocks enjoyed a broad rally. Tailwinds include favorable regulatory conditions, improved revenue guidance from peers, and increased interest in hydrogen and grid alternatives.
Uranium Energy (NYSEAMERICAN:UEC) climbed to a new 52-week high amid sustained investor interest in nuclear power as a clean energy solution. Spot uranium prices remain elevated, and with growing geopolitical support for nuclear, UEC continues to attract both retail and institutional flows.
Applied Digital (NASDAQ:APLD) also made the breakout list, with investors bullish on its high-performance computing and AI infrastructure capabilities. The company has attracted increasing attention from hedge funds seeking under-the-radar exposure to AI data centers, making APLD one of the more speculative — but hot — names on the board.
Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO)touched an all-time high, riding the wave of its AI chip dominance, recent earnings strength, and robust demand across networking and data center infrastructure. With the VMware acquisition now integrated, analysts see upside from synergies and product breadth. It’s a juggernaut in motion.
