Shopify stock price holds near $138 after Friday close — what to watch before Monday

New York, January 25, 2026, 16:00 EST — The market has shut for the day. Shares of Shopify Inc ticked higher Friday, ending at $137.89 following a turbulent week for growth stocks. Investors are gearing up for a busy slate of economic data and earnings releases that might rattle markets. With U.S. markets closed over the weekend, Shopify shares head into Monday caught between shifting interest rate forecasts and a new wave of big-tech earnings that might rattle risk appetite. For SHOP, this matters—its price moves have acted more like a volatile tech name than a steady retail stock. On

BlackRock stock: 3 things to watch for BLK before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 15:40 EST — The market has closed. BlackRock shares slipped 0.86% to close at $1,129.91 on Friday. The stock is set to resume trading Monday as investors digest a recent analyst upgrade alongside a calendar full of macroeconomic data and earnings reports. (Yahoo Finance) Why this matters now: BlackRock’s fee base depends on assets under management — the client money it handles — which can shift rapidly with stock and bond market moves. Volatile markets can quickly alter revenue forecasts, even if the company itself remains steady. The Federal Reserve’s Jan. 27–28 meeting falls squarely

Bitcoin cracks $90K floor and slips below $88,000 ahead of Fed week

NEW YORK, Jan 25, 2026, 15:37 EST Bitcoin dipped under $88,000 on Sunday during light weekend trading, continuing a retreat seen across major cryptocurrencies. The move comes ahead of the U.S. Federal Reserve meeting and a packed slate of Big Tech earnings. (CoinDesk) Traders are keeping a close eye on this, as crypto has faltered whenever markets factor in higher-for-longer interest rates. With borrowing costs elevated, leverage becomes costly and risk appetite often dries up quickly. This week arrives at a tricky moment for positioning. Major earnings reports have the power to rattle broader markets, and bitcoin tends to behave

Amgen stock price slips from record close as AMGN heads into earnings and the obesity-drug race

Amgen stock price slips from record close as AMGN heads into earnings and the obesity-drug race

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 15:31 EST — The market has closed. Amgen shares ended Friday down 0.7% at $344.75, pulling back after a run that nearly took the biotech giant to record highs ahead of the weekend. About 3.8 million shares changed hands, LSEG data shows. This matters as Amgen (AMGN.O) has turned into a popular “defensive growth” pick for certain investors—offering steady cash flows and a major potential boost from its obesity pipeline. But the upcoming catalyst could disrupt that stability. Amgen hit its record closing price of $347.07 on January 22, with the 52-week peak slightly higher

Intuitive Surgical stock price: what to watch Monday after ISRG’s 2026 da Vinci outlook and tariffs hit focus

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 15:28 EST — Market closed. Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) shares closed Friday at $523.99, slipping roughly 0.4% following the company’s cautious growth forecast for 2026. U.S. markets will resume trading on Monday. The main question now: Is Intuitive’s forecast for procedure growth cautious, or a sign that hospital demand is genuinely slowing? “Procedure growth” measures how many surgeries use its systems, a key figure since it fuels recurring sales of instruments, accessories, and service. Leerink Partners’ Mike Kratky said the guidance “leaves room for upside,” boosting his price target to $622 from $600, while maintaining an

Abbott Laboratories stock faces a Monday test as ABT hovers near a 52-week low

Abbott Laboratories stock faces a Monday test as ABT hovers near a 52-week low

New York, January 25, 2026, 15:23 EST — Market closed Abbott Laboratories shares head into Monday weighed down, following last week’s selloff and another wave of broker price-target downgrades. Timing is crucial. Abbott, known as a defensive healthcare stock, suddenly saw its volatility spike, pushing portfolio managers to rethink their “steady compounder” stance just as the market prepares for a packed schedule of macro updates and earnings reports. Traders are now focused less on pinpointing a bottom in one session and more on whether the stock can stay above recent lows without facing another round of estimate cuts. Abbott closed

Boeing stock price steadies near $252 as earnings week opens — what investors watch next

New York, January 25, 2026, 15:22 ET — The market has closed. Boeing (BA.N) shares ended Friday up 0.3%, closing at $252.15. This week, any brief update on cash flow or production could carry more weight than the usual daily trading. (Yahoo Finance) That’s the current situation: Boeing has the orders lined up, but investors want to see those planes actually flying off the production line and generating cash. The company is working to maintain factory output amid ongoing pressure from regulators and customers. On Friday, the U.S. Commerce Department’s International Trade Administration announced that American companies secured 121 foreign

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 15:32 ET — Market closed. Amphenol Corp shares closed Friday roughly 1% lower, retreating ahead of a crucial week for the connectivity firm while U.S. markets remained closed over the weekend. (StockAnalysis) Amphenol is set to release its fourth-quarter results Wednesday, and investors won’t just be focused on the headline figures. The key will be the company’s outlook for demand in 2026. The stock surged through January but remains vulnerable to shifts in sentiment tied to industrial and data-center spending. (Nasdaq) The timing is tricky.
