1. What’s moving the stock today
Tradeweb Markets (TW) is trading lower today as the market digests its Q1 2026 earnings update and, in particular, management’s commentary that 2026 adjusted expenses are trending toward the top half of the company’s $1.10 billion to $1.16 billion guidance range. The selloff reflects a classic “good numbers, higher costs” reaction: investors are weighing how incremental spending could temper operating leverage even as activity levels remain strong.
