STRETCHEDCONFIDENCE5/5KITT is up 69.5%, with a 42.86% surge in the last five minutes, after announcing a non-binding LOI for up to $50 million in strategic equity financing. Because the funding is uncommitted, subject to negotiation and approvals, and potentially dilutive, the announcement does not support the magnitude of the move.
WHYA 69.5% pre-market jump is far larger than warranted by an unquantified, non-binding financing proposal that may never close and could dilute holders.ANALYZED 09:01 ET · <1 MIN AGO · OPENAI/GPT-5.6-LUNATHE ROW AND SESSION LEVELS AT 09:01 ET

There were no halts, and the stock finished 21.3% below the previous close.
