Silver Price Today (Dec. 25, 2025): XAG/USD Holds Near $72 After Record High — Latest News, 2026 Forecasts, and What Happens Next

December 25, 2025 — Silver prices are pausing near historic highs on Christmas Day, after a blistering year-end rally pushed spot silver into fresh record territory. With many major financial markets shut or running on holiday-thin liquidity, today’s price action is less about fresh positioning and more about consolidation — but the bigger story is that silver has entered what several analysts describe as “price discovery” after breaking multi-year resistance and posting one of its strongest years on record. Trading Economics Silver price today: where XAG/USD stands on 25.12.2025 Spot silver was around $71.9 per ounce on December 25, 2025,

Gold Price Today: XAU/USD Holds Near $4,480 After Breaking $4,500 — Latest News, Drivers, and 2026 Forecasts (Dec. 25, 2025)

December 25, 2025 — Gold is entering the Christmas break near historic highs after a dramatic late‑year surge that pushed the metal through the psychological $4,500 per ounce level and up to fresh records earlier this week. In holiday-thinned conditions, spot gold has been hovering around the mid‑$4,400s to ~$4,480, following an intraday record near $4,525 set during Christmas Eve trading. Reuters The bigger story, however, is not just “gold price today” — it’s why the rally has been so relentless into year-end, and what major banks and market strategists think happens next in 2026, with forecasts clustering from the

Global Stock Markets on Dec. 25, 2025: Thin Christmas Trading, Asia Mixed, Gulf Slips — and the 2026 Outlook Turns to AI and Rate Cuts

Global stock markets are spending Christmas Day in “low-liquidity mode,” with most major Western exchanges shut and investors leaning on the final full sessions of the year for direction. The tone is broadly constructive: U.S. equities headed into the holiday at fresh record closes, while parts of Asia traded mixed-to-firmer in thin volumes. Meanwhile, Gulf equities eased as softer oil prices pressured the region’s heavyweight energy-linked markets. Reuters With calendars thinned out and year-end positioning largely done, the conversation has shifted quickly from “what happened” in 2025 to “what could break” or “what could extend” the rally in 2026—especially around

US Stock Market Today (Dec. 25, 2025): S&P 500 and Dow End Christmas Eve at Record Highs as 2026 Outlook Turns to AI, Earnings, and Fed Rate Cuts

NEW YORK — December 25, 2025. Wall Street is closed for Christmas Day, but the story investors are taking into the holiday is anything but quiet: U.S. stocks left off at fresh records, the “Santa Claus rally” window has begun, and strategists are already sketching a 2026 roadmap built around three swing factors—artificial intelligence investment, corporate profit growth, and the Federal Reserve’s next moves on rates. New York Stock Exchange The timing matters. With trading paused, markets are in “reflection mode”—digesting where prices ended the final full session before year-end positioning accelerates and before the calendar flips into a U.S.

Dow Jones Industrial Average Holds Record Close as Wall Street Closes for Christmas: DJIA Santa Rally Watch, Fed Rate-Cut Bets, and 2026 Outlook

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is spending Christmas Day at a fresh record—even though U.S. stock markets are shut today, Thursday, December 25, 2025. The blue-chip Dow Jones index last traded in Wednesday’s shortened Christmas Eve session, when it rose 288.75 points (0.60%) to close at an all-time high of 48,731.16. Reuters That record close is more than a holiday headline. It’s a snapshot of what has defined the market’s late-2025 push: a renewed bid for AI-linked names, resilient (if uneven) U.S. data, and a steady drumbeat of debate about how far the Federal Reserve will go with rate

Bank of America Stock (BAC) After Hours Today (Dec. 25, 2025): What to Know Before the Market Opens Tomorrow

Bank of America Corporation (NYSE: BAC) is heading into Friday’s reopening session with a key wrinkle: U.S. stock markets were closed today, Thursday, Dec. 25, for Christmas, so there was no “after-the-bell” price action in the usual sense. The most recent “close” investors can anchor to is Wednesday’s Christmas Eve early-close session. New York Stock Exchange That matters because BAC is sitting near fresh highs, liquidity is thin in holiday weeks, and the next wave of catalysts (rates, bank regulation, and the Q4 earnings runway) can move large-cap financials quickly when volume is light.
