Skillz Platform is trading 6.25% up at $8.84 as technology-led market sentiment improves.
- The Nasdaq Composite is up 0.62% and the S&P 500 is up 0.47%, supporting risk assets and likely contributing to the move.
- No clear company-specific announcement explains the August 13, 2026 advance. Firy, formerly Skillz, is scheduled to release second-quarter results after the market closes, which may be adding investor interest. An $80 million secured-note redemption is scheduled for August 14.
