Madison Square Garden Sports shares ticked higher after the New York Knick's secured their first NBA Championship since 1973 by defeating the San Antonio Spurs in Game 5 of the NBA Finals.

MSGS is up significantly with a year-to-date (YTD) return of roughly 49%. Recently, the stock reached an all-time high after the Knick's playoff run, climbing roughly $390.12 gaining over 150% over the past 12 months. The stock is currently trading at $384.68.

Last month, Madison Square Garden Sports Corp. reported its fiscal third quarter results, posting revenue of $432.2 million, beating the FactSet consensus of $429.7 million.

Investors are also watching a proposed spin-off that would split the Knicks and the New York Rangers into two separate businesses. According to a recent analysis from Guggenheim, could help unlock value of MSGS, along with a potential expansion in Las Vegas and Seattle, which is estimated to bring $450 million to $700 million for the Knicks.

Fox has agreed to acquire Roku for $160 per share in cash and FOX Class A stock, putting the valuation of Roku at an enterprise value of $22 billion.

"This is a defining moment for FOX, and a natural extension of the deliberate and focused strategy we have been executing for nearly a decade," Lachlan K. Murdoch, executive Chair and CEO of Fox Corporation, said in a press release.

The acquisition will create a scaled media and technology platform with super release, engagement and monetization capability. The unification is expected to have one of the largest streaming businesses in the U.S. including Tubi and The Roku Channel, reaching over 100 million households.

The combined company will become the third-largest player in U.S. television by share of viewing, with an attractive mix of FOX's sports, news, and entertainment content, alongside streaming services Tubi and The Roku Channel.

FOX plans to keep its capital return program, target about $400 million run-rate cost synergies, fund cash consideration with new debt and cash, and reach pro forma net leverage near 2.8x, inclusive of 50% credit for run-rate cost synergies.

In 2019, Fox reoriented the company around live news and sports and a year later acquired Tubi to become one of the most successful businesses in streaming.

"I'm incredibly proud of what our team has built, and the combination with FOX is an extraordinary opportunity to accelerate our vision, scale faster and innovate more aggressively for viewers, partners and advertisers, "Anthony Wood, founder, chairman and CEO of Roku, said in a press release. The deal is expected to close in the first half of calendar year 2027.

ROKU resumes trading at 7:30 am ET.

The Italian lender said in a statement that Commerzbank's claims were "false and without foundation," adding that "tendered shares are tendered shares."

UniCredit shares were last seen trading up 0.4%, while Commerzbank shares were down 1.8%.

Crypto traders trying to get ahead of the traditional stock market were pricing in more upside for SpaceX Sunday evening, following its highly successful public debut on Friday.

The SpaceX perpetual futures market on Hyperliquid saw a burst of activity around 5 p.m. ET, with the perp jumping from about $166 to above $180 before pulling back.

Because the contract trades with leverage, the move could also be amplified by a short squeeze, where traders who bet against the contract were forced to buy back positions as prices surged.

SpaceX's IPO had the largest buy-in from retail investors in recent history, according to VandaTrack.

The firm told clients that individual investors bought around $118 million worth of shares in the rocket company on balance during the session. SpaceX accounted for more than half of all net buying for single stocks in the session, according to Vanda.

But Vanda said retail traders simultaneously dumped big year-to-date winners last week including Micron, Marvell and Robinhood. Across the board, last week saw the weakest net retail buying since March 2020, Vanda found.

In other words: "The SpaceX IPO was not a boat that lifted all tides for retail investors," Vanda told clients.

SpaceX opened at $150 per share on Friday, marking a roughly 11% gain over its $135 IPO price. Shares surged more than 19% in the session, bringing its market cap above $2 trillion.
