PepsiCo Stock (NASDAQ: PEP): Markets Closed for the Weekend as Investors Weigh Year-End Trading and PepsiCo’s 2026 Outlook

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:29 a.m. ET — Market Closed PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) enters the final stretch of the year with U.S. markets closed for the weekend and investors balancing two forces that often collide in late December: thinner liquidity and positioning ahead of a new year. On Friday’s abbreviated post-holiday tape, Wall Street finished nearly unchanged, snapping a short winning streak but staying close to record territory—an environment that typically rewards “defensive” consumer-staples names, even if day-to-day moves are muted.

Canada Tax Changes 2026: New Federal Tax Brackets, 14% Rate Cut, TFSA & RRSP Limits, CPP and EI Updates

Canada Tax Changes 2026: New Federal Tax Brackets, 14% Rate Cut, TFSA & RRSP Limits, CPP and EI Updates

As Canada heads into 2026, the tax story is less about one dramatic overhaul—and more about a cluster of meaningful “moving parts” that will show up in paycheques, contribution room, and planning decisions throughout the year. The headline change is a lower federal tax rate on the first slice of taxable income. But Canadians will also see inflation-adjusted bracket thresholds, updated registered-account limits (TFSA and RRSP), higher CPP ceilings (including CPP2 for higher earners), and a fresh round of Employment Insurance updates. Meanwhile, ahead of the 2026 filing season, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) has been under pressure to improve
