In the realm of stocks experiencing significant gains, several companies have made noteworthy moves recently. One such company is WiMi Hologram (WIMI), which saw its share price surge by 30.94%. This increase came after WiMi announced that its development team had proposed a digital quantum coprocessor based on FPGA technology, capturing investor interest and driving the stock upward.

Similarly, CorMedix (CRMD) experienced a 29.89% rise in its stock price. This boost was fueled by the company reporting Q4 2024 revenues of $31 million and projecting full fiscal year revenues of $43 million. Additionally, CorMedix expects its Q4 EBITDA to surpass $12 million as it plans to expand its DefenCath product across dialysis and inpatient sectors. The company also reported total cash and investments of $52 million, emphasizing a cost-neutral approach moving forward.

Aurora Innovation (AUR), witnessing a 29.08% increase, has partnered with Continental and NVIDIA to scale the deployment of autonomous trucks. This collaboration is seen as a significant step forward in the autonomous vehicle industry, which has boosted investor confidence in Aurora's long-term prospects.

Getty Images (GETY) saw its shares rise by 24.12%, marking a three-day streak with a cumulative increase of 51.18%. The driving force behind this rally is the announcement that Getty Images will merge with Shutterstock, creating a $3.7 billion visual content company, thus potentially increasing market influence.

Inari Medical (NARI) climbed 22.23% over two days, with a total increase of 59.63%. The rise followed a revised stock rating by Wells Fargo to 'neutral' from its previous stance, and an increased target price set at $80, indicating a positive outlook for Inari’s future performance.

Conversely, several stocks faced declines in the market. Acelyrin (SLRN) plummeted 36.96%, adding to a two-day loss of 42.41%. This drop came after an update on the mid-stage trial data for its eye disease medication, which failed to meet investor expectations.

Vuzix (VUZI) also saw a substantial decrease, falling 21.86%. This decline is part of a broader market weakness affecting tech stocks due to recent economic data and rising yields, alongside investor concerns over a pullback in NVIDIA shares.

NeoVolta (NEOV) experienced a 19.51% drop after announcing critical changes in its board and executive leadership, causing uncertainty about the company's future direction.

Apogee Enterprises (APOG) decreased by 19.02% over two days, adding to an aggregate two-day loss of 19.89%. Its stock fell in reaction to a gloomy forecast for its fiscal year 2025, causing concern among investors.

Lastly, Serve Robotics (SERV) fell by 18.70% as the company plans to raise $80 million through direct issuance, leading to a pre-market drop in share price as investors reacted to the dilution of existing shares.
