Tesla fell 0.8% in premarket trading after ending up 5.5% on Monday. The electric-vehicle maker on Monday teased a major announcement, sharing a short video on social-media platform X that showed the headlights of a vehicle surrounded by darkness. A separate video showed a Tesla wheel or fan spinning and ended with the date "10/7." What Tesla will unveil Tuesday isn't known but the company for months has teased the launch of a more affordable model.

Advanced Micro Devices rose another 3.5% in premarket trading following a 24% gain Monday as the chip maker announced a long-term deal to become a key supplier to OpenAI's artificial-intelligence infrastructure buildout. OpenAI received a warrant to purchase up to 160 million shares of AMD stock at 1 cent each, representing roughly 10% of AMD's total shares outstanding. AMD's market cap grew $63.36 billion to $330.6 billion on Monday, according Dow Jones Market Data, the stock's largest one-day market cap gain on record.

Chip rival Nvidia was up 0.2% and Broadcom rose slightly in the premarket session following moderate losses Monday.

AppLovin Corporation was down 1% in the premarket session after Bloomberg reported the Securities and Exchange Commission was investigating the data-collection practices of the mobile advertising tech company. An AppLovin spokesperson told Barron's that "generally, we do not comment on the existence or nonexistence of any potential regulatory matters. That said, as a global public company, we regularly engage with regulators and if we get inquiries we address them in the ordinary course. Material developments, if any, would be disclosed through the appropriate public channels." The stock fell 14% Monday.

The U.S. government will take warrants to purchase an additional 7.5% of the stock. Coming into Tuesday, shares have risen 331% over the past 12 months.

Constellation Brands rose 3.6% after the company reduced its fiscal-year guidance even as fiscal second-quarter earnings and sales beat analysts' expectations. The company estimated earnings for the year of $9.86 to $10.16 a share, down from prior guidance of between $10.77 and $11.07. Like many other alcohol and beverage companies, Constellation has struggled lately as younger consumers cut back on drinking alcohol because of rising prices, health concerns, and the popularity of other recreational options. The stock has fallen 37% this year.

Aehr Test Systems posted slightly better-than-expected fiscal first-quarter results, but shares of the semiconductor equipment maker tumbled 20% after the company swung to a loss from a year earlier. CEO Gayn Erickson said the company remained cautious due to ongoing tariff-related uncertainty and wasn't reinstating formal guidance yet, but was "confident in the broad-based growth opportunities ahead across AI and our other markets."

Dollar Tree declined 4.1% to $84.11 after shares of the discount retailer were downgraded to Underperform from Hold at Jefferies and the price target was reduced to $70 from $110.

It produced 3,891 vehicles in the period, with more than 1,000 additional vehicles built for Saudi Arabia for final assembly. The stock fell 0.7% in premarket trading.
