Here’s a roundup of notable U.S. premarket stock movers:

• Oil stocks such as Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) and Chevron (NYSE:CVX) gained ground, tracking a rise in crude prices.

• Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) shares edged higher after the company launched its autonomous ride-hailing service for select users.
• Estée Lauder (NYSE:EL) ticked up after Deutsche Bank upgraded the stock, highlighting the company’s strategic push to diversify its revenue beyond the Chinese market.
• Circle Internet Group (NYSE:CRCL) surged over 5% following the U.S. Senate’s passage of new stablecoin regulations last week—a landmark development for the cryptocurrency sector.
• Li Auto (NASDAQ:LI) saw gains after the Chinese electric vehicle maker announced plans to launch a new SUV later this year.
• Northern Trust (NASDAQ:NTRS) rose on reports from the Wall Street Journal that Bank of New York Mellon (NYSE:BK) had approached the firm about a possible merger.
• On the downside, Compass Pathways (NASDAQ:CMPS) fell after the biotech firm reported that a late-stage trial showed its experimental psilocybin-based treatment significantly reduced symptoms of treatment-resistant depression.
