Stocks are down more than -0.6% in premarket trading as investors digest a surprisingly strong May labor market reading. Nonfarm payrolls rose by 172,000 last month, more than double the 85,000 consensus estimate and roughly in line with April's revised 179,000 gain. The unemployment rate held steady at 4.3%, matching forecasts.

Walmart (WMT) is down -0.4% in premarket trading after launching Subway delivery through its Express Delivery service, the retailer's first restaurant integration, now live across six states with 30-minute delivery and plans to expand to roughly 1,400 stores by late summer. WMT executives flagged broader ambitions to bring in-store quick-service tenants into the delivery ecosystem, noting nearly all fast food chains sit within five miles of a WMT location, rattling rivals DoorDash (DASH), down -2%, and Uber (UBER).

Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. (MSGS) moved higher in premarket trading after setting a 52-week high yesterday, driven by the New York Knicks' playoff run now three games from the franchise's first NBA championship since 1973. Analysts view the timing as favorable with MSGS exploring a tax-free spin-off separating the Knicks and its Rangers hockey franchise into two standalone public companies. MSGS shares are up +14% over the past six weeks.

Peloton Interactive (PTON) has acquired Skōp, a Pilates-focused startup, as a "central plank" in its strength-training ecosystem, part of the company's ongoing turnaround. CEO Peter Stern called Pilates a category "ripe for the same kind of experiential reinvention we brought to cardio," with Skōp adding form-tracking technology and specialized R&D capability. PTON's existing Pilates content saw engagement up +48% YoY in Q3, and industry data identifies Pilates as the fastest-growing fitness category in the U.S.

Nvidia (NVDA) CEO Jensen Huang confirmed that Samsung Electronics (SSNLF), SK Hynix (HXSCL), and Micron Technology (MU) have all been qualified to supply HBM4 chips for NVDA's next-generation Vera Rubin AI platform.

Vera Rubin is slated for Q3 deliveries and is built around clusters of NVDA's Vera CPUs and Rubin graphics cores, with terabytes of HBM4 per server system.
