Liberty Energy (LBRT.US) secured a $493.2M long-term power equipment contract on September 18 for 2028-2029 delivery, targeting 3GW distributed generation capacity. AAON (AAON.US) reported $627M in Q2 revenue, doubling year-over-year, with BASX thermal management backlog reaching $2.13B and full-year growth guidance raised to 55-60%. Wetour Robotics (WETO.US) surged 59% intraday on September 24 following Vantrapower's launch into transformer supply, recording a 45.96% weekly volatility. Galaxy Digital (GLXY.US) partnered with Sky Protocol on $100M sUSDS integration but saw Q2 revenue decline 14.7% sequentially, underperforming S&P 500 by 3 percentage points. Arqit Quantum (ARQQ.US) jumped 22.21% weekly to $24.60 after Babcock MoU for quantum-secure communications. Pacific Biosciences (PACB.US) advanced its $40M cost-reduction plan while cutting SPRQ-Nx reagent prices by 30% to accelerate clinical adoption, posting $39M Q2 revenue with modest growth. Other tickers showed limited activity: SOFX.US and AXTL.US ETFs tracked sector movements, ASGI.RT.US lacked material updates, and YHGJ.US's AI hardware pivot remains unverified by concrete developments. ### Related Stocks - [LBRT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/LBRT.US.md) - [SOFX.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/SOFX.US.md) - [GLXY.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/GLXY.US.md) - [YHGJ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/YHGJ.US.md) - [PACB.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PACB.US.md) - [ASGI.RT.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ASGI.RT.US.md) - [ARQQ.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/ARQQ.US.md) - [AAON.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AAON.US.md) - [WETO.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/WETO.US.md) - [AXTL.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/AXTL.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Insider Selling: Arqit Quantum (NASDAQ:ARQQ) Insider Sells 494 Shares of Company Stock](https://longbridge.com/en/news/301088111.md) - [Arqit Quantum Insiders Quietly Unload Shares in a Multi-Executive Sell-Off](https://longbridge.com/en/news/301093884.md) - [Pacific Biosciences Collaborates With TychoBio For AI-powered RNA Data Creation; Shares Up](https://longbridge.com/en/news/301048963.md) - [Bank of America Securities Reaffirms Their Buy Rating on Liberty Energy (LBRT)](https://longbridge.com/en/news/300807524.md) - [PacBio partners with TychoBio to generate long-read RNA data for AI-designed rare disease therapies](https://longbridge.com/en/news/301039873.md) --- > **Disclaimer: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.**
