On this episode of Stock Movers:

Listen for comprehensive cross-platform coverage of the US market close as heard on Bloomberg Television, Bloomberg Radio, and YouTube with Romaine Bostick, Katie Greifeld, Carol Massar and Tim Stenovec.

- Workday (WDAY) shares rose today after Elliott Investment Management unveiled a $2 billion-plus investment in Workday Inc., sending its shares up as much as 10% Wednesday. The activist investor said Workday Chief Executive Officer Carl Eschenbach and his team have made “substantial progress” in recent years driving growth and customer retention, according to a statement Tuesday. Workday announced on its analyst day on Tuesday a $1.1 billion acquisition of artificial intelligence company Sana. It also said it is partnering with Databricks Inc., Salesforce Inc. and Snowflake Inc. to allow access of human resources and finance data on its platform. “We are pleased with our dialogue with the team and believe the plan announced at today’s financial analyst day represents a significant enhancement of Workday’s operating model and capital allocation framework,” Elliott said in the statement.

- Krispy Kreme (DNUT) shares rallied today after FBI Director Kash Patel commented on his purchases of Krispy Kreme Inc. and ON Semiconductor Corp. stocks during his testimony in Congress. Patel explained that he’s long liked to trade stocks and said that in this case he simply saw “good investment” opportunities in Krispy Kreme Inc. and ON Semiconductor Corp.

- Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Inc. (CBRL) shares fell today after the company offered sales guidance for the current fiscal year that missed expectations, suggesting the brand is still dealing with the fallout from its controversial logo change. Revenue in fiscal 2026, which ends next summer, is projected to be in a range of $3.35 billion to $3.45 billion, the company said in a statement Wednesday. Analysts are expecting sales of $3.52 billion in the period, according the average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg. The mid-point of Cracker Barrel’s range suggests sales will remain similar to the past two years, when growth has stagnated. The outlook assumes foot traffic at existing stores declines 4% to 7% in the coming year.
