Twitter (TWTR) late Thursday warned of rising expenses and a possible slowdown in user growth, sending shares more than 12% lower in premarket trading.

Dow stock Chevron fell about 2.5% in Friday's premarket, shortly after the U.S. oil major reported a first-quarter adjusted per share earnings decline of over 30% to 90 cents.

Chevron's earnings sank on winter storm production losses, weaker margins and the absence of asset and tax items that benefited year-ago profit. (Reuters)

Shares were steady in the premarket. (Reuters)
