People Inc. suffered the most notable decline, with shares dropping 5% to $35.20. This contraction followed a wider quarterly loss, largely attributed to the falling stock price of MGM Resorts. Similarly, Palantir saw its shares dip 3% to $173.40. Despite the company reporting strong growth in commercial sales, institutional caution remains, with many investors questioning whether the current valuation can sustain itself against potential shifts in the AI landscape.

Market Volatility Hits Tech and Staffing Stocks
After-hours trading on Monday signaled a fragmented market as investors recalibrated positions across the tech and service sectors. While some firms saw double-digit gains following upward revisions to their financial forecasts, others faced sharp pullbacks driven by portfolio exposure and broader concerns over valuation metrics in an AI-driven economy.
Conversely, smaller-cap stocks found momentum through improved forward-looking guidance. Backblaze saw a significant surge of 35%, bringing its share price to $10 after the company raised its full-year revenue outlook. Upwork followed a similar trajectory, climbing 10% to $10.74 as the company bolstered its earnings projections for the upcoming periods.
