The Midday 10
The Midday 10 Thu, Jul 30, 2026 ~60 seconds 12:30 ET
A technology-led tape by midday, with semis pulling the Nasdaq-100 sharply higher while Communications and Staples drag; the broad index reads risk-on but the gains are concentrated.
US midday, intraday quotes (delayed)
The ten lines
- 1
UP IREN Limited
IREN
IREN trades up 27.81% to 37.46 by midday, standing among the session's most explosive movers. No specific catalyst context is supplied, but the move fits the broader AI infrastructure bid running through the tape.
- 2
UP Nebius Group
NBIS
NBIS adds 27.28% to 188.66 by midday, a second AI-adjacent name posting a dramatic intraday gain alongside IREN. The pair suggest demand is running well beyond the large-cap layer of the AI build-out.

UP FormFactor
FORM
FORM rises 27.2% to 106.15 by midday, making it the third name on today's tape to clear 27%. FormFactor's test and measurement exposure to advanced packaging and HBM puts it squarely in the semi-complex rally.
