U.S. stocks climbed Tuesday with several companies posting impressive gains. Academy Sports rose 5% after beating earnings expectations, while Tronox surged nearly 25% on rare earth financing news. Alexander & Baldwin jumped 38% on a $2.3 billion buyout deal.

The major indexes had a solid Tuesday session, with the Dow Jones climbing more than 100 points as investors digested a wave of corporate news and earnings results.

Leading the charge was Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (ASO), which saw shares jump 5% to $51.28 following better-than-expected third-quarter earnings. The sporting goods retailer posted adjusted earnings per share of $1.14, comfortably ahead of the $1.06 analyst consensus. Revenue came in at $1.384 billion, up 3.0% year over year, though that figure fell short of the Street's $1.403 billion estimate. Investors clearly focused on the earnings beat rather than the modest revenue miss.

But Academy Sports wasn't alone in notching impressive gains. Here's a rundown of the other big winners from Tuesday's session.

Massive Movers

Alexander & Baldwin Inc (ALEX) absolutely soared, surging 38% to $20.89 after announcing it will go private in a $2.3 billion all-cash transaction. That's the kind of premium that gets shareholders' attention.

Diginex Ltd (DGNX) jumped 25.2% to $9.93. The company reported H2 2025 revenue of $2 million.

Tronox Holdings PLC (TROX) rocketed 24.7% higher to $4.67 on news that could reshape its rare earth ambitions. The company announced it received coordinated, non-binding and conditional Letters of Support/Interest from Export Finance Australia and the Export-Import Bank of the United States for up to $600 million in limited or non-recourse financing. That potential funding would support development of Tronox's rare earth supply chain, a strategic priority given global demand dynamics.

Mama's Creations Inc (MAMA) climbed 18.3% to $13.23 after delivering third-quarter financial results that exceeded analyst expectations.

Healthcare and Tech Gains

STAAR Surgical Company (STAA) rose 13% to $26.58 after Alcon amended its merger agreement to acquire the company for $30.75 per share in cash. The updated terms gave shareholders more clarity on the deal structure.

Telesat Corporation (TSAT) gained 12.8% to $32.35 after announcing a strategic partnership with the Government of Canada and MDA Space to deliver a next-generation military satellite communications solution.

CeriBell, Inc. (CBLL) advanced 11.3% to $22.49 following FDA 510(k) clearance for its proprietary delirium monitoring solution, a significant regulatory milestone.

Obook Holdings Inc. (OWLS) gained 10.8% to $7.99 on news of a collaboration with Visa to launch the OwlPay Cash app for remittances.

XOMA Royalty Corporation (XOMA) jumped 10.1% to $33.57.

More Notable Gainers

Teleflex Incorporated (TFX) surged 9.5% to $131.24 after announcing the sale of its Acute Care, Interventional Urology, and OEM businesses for $2.03 billion. Portfolio streamlining moves like this often get positive reception from investors looking for focused growth strategies.

Nextdoor Holdings, Inc. (NXDR) gained 9.4% to $2.0350.

CS Disco, Inc. (LAW) rose 9.1% to $8.96.

Clear Secure, Inc. (YOU) rounded out the winners with a 7.8% gain to $35.13 after announcing a contract with CMS to modernize identity verification on Medicare.gov beginning in early 2026. Landing a government contract of that scale represents a meaningful validation of Clear's technology platform.
