Stocks posted sharp gains Friday after the
S&P 500
ended a streak of finishing higher for eight straight sessions.

These stocks were making moves Friday: 

Plug Power
(PLUG), the hydrogen fuel cell specialist, reported a third-quarter loss wider than a year earlier and revenue that missed analysts’ expectations.
Plug Power
said it “has been negatively impacted by unprecedented supply challenges in the hydrogen network in North America.” Plug Power said it might not be able to fund its operations through the next 12 months from its existing resources and said that raised “substantial doubt about [its] ability to continue as a going concern.” The stock sank 43%.

Shares of
Trade Desk
(TTD) tumbled 18% after the internet advertising platform company’s outlook for the fourth quarter missed analysts’ expectations. Trade Desk said it expects revenue in the period of at least $580 million, below estimates of $610 million. It also forecast adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization of approximately $270 million, below Wall Street estimates of $291 million.

Doximity
(DOCS), the online platform for medical professionals, raised its full-year outlook and said its board authorized the repurchase of up to $70 million of common stock over the next 12 months. Shares were rising 13%.

Illumina (ILMN), the DNA sequencing company, said it expects revenue to fall between 2% and 3% in 2023, compared with previous projections for growth of about 1%, and sees adjusted earnings of 60 cents to 70 cents a share, lower than prior expectations of 75 cents to 90 cents. The stock declined 12% and was the worst performer in the S&P 500 on Friday.

Casino operator

(WYNN) reported third-quarter adjusted earnings of 99 cents a share, beating estimates of 74 cents. Revenue rose to $1.67 billion from $889.7 million a year earlier. Wynn reached a tentative deal with the Culinary and Bartenders unions, averting a strike that was set to begin Friday. The stock was down 5.6%.

Semiconductor company
Synaptics
(SYNA) rose 14% after fiscal first-quarter adjusted earnings and revenue exceeded analysts’ estimates.

U.S.-listed shares of

(GRPN) was down 36% after interim CEO Dusan Senkypl said the e-commerce company’s “business continues to be challenged.” The company said it was reinstating formal guidance and expects fourth-quarter revenue to decline 7% to 14%.
