undefined | Stocks making the biggest moves premarket: Sysco, CrowdStrike, Alcoa & more

**Stocks Leading the Premarket Action**
The pre‑market session highlighted a mix of sharp declines and strong gains across several sectors. Sysco, the wholesale food distributor, slid 4.5 % after announcing a $29.1 billion acquisition of Jetro Restaurant Depot, which the company said would be “immediately accretive” and close in its fiscal third quarter of 2027. Avis saw its shares tumble more than 9 % following a massive 48 % rally the week before; investors appeared to be taking profits after the rental firm benefited from heightened travel demand caused by a Department of Homeland Security funding impasse at U.S. airports.

**Materials, Cybersecurity and Defense Winners**
Alcoa rallied over 9 % as aluminum prices rose more than 4.5 % after Iranian missile strikes disrupted critical infrastructure in the Middle East, boosting expectations for higher metal prices. Cybersecurity leader CrowdStrike gained roughly 2.5 % after Wolfe Research upgraded the stock to “outperform,” citing increasing cyber risks linked to artificial‑intelligence technologies, while Morgan Stanley named it a top pick despite a 21 % decline in 2026 on earlier AI‑related concerns. Defense contractor Leidos added about 2.5 % after completing its $2.4 billion acquisition of Entrust, a move aimed at expanding its footprint in the energy‑infrastructure market and meeting rising power‑sector demand.

**Tech Platforms and Memory Chip Rebound**
Trading platforms Robinhood and Coinbase each rose more than 2 % as cryptocurrency prices recovered, with Bitcoin up 2.5 % and back above $67,000. Expedia saw a 2.5 % gain after Jefferies upgraded the online travel company to a buy rating, citing strong earnings growth despite AI‑related worries and travel‑demand headwinds from the Middle East conflict. Memory‑chip stocks—including SanDisk, Seagate Technology and Micron—rebounded about 2 % following a brief sell‑off triggered by Google research that had investors fearing a slowdown in chip demand.

Virtually all restaurants that I have tried in my area serve the same Sysco french fries: unnaturally crunchy, blatantly ultraprocessed, with no natural flavors whatsoever. A profoundly disappointing eating experience every time.

My dad was a top research chemist, and he told me long ago that the fast food chains used chemical processes to subtract all natural flavors from their food, particularly their french fries. They then added chemical flavors to give them a standardized taste. Those chemicals were manufactured at large factories in New Jersey, he told me.

Of course back then local restaurants would still make their own fries, mostly. Only the fast food chains had the money and the will to standardization to develop and use those standardized chemical flavors.

But Sysco has changed that. I can now name exactly ONE restaurant which makes its own french fries the old fashioned way, by slicing potatoes and frying them in oil or fat. The taste and texture are simply incredible. It's a huge chicken restaurant, and I don't eat chicken, but I go there and order the fries and other sides to go. They're very successful, so I'm hoping they will stay in business a long long time!

Watching this, I was reminded of a Japanese documentary segment covering the main warehouse of the food distributor that services the majority of ramen shops in the country. The mood of the segment was, "Isn't this so cool! So much stuff here! Tell us more about your wonderful company!"
