Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) wrapped up a holiday-shortened Christmas Eve session with a modest gain — and then drifted slightly lower in thin after-hours trading as investors digested a policy-heavy news cycle around GLP‑1 obesity medicines.

Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ: NFLX) finished a holiday-shortened Christmas Eve session with shares little changed, and the stock remained calm in after-hours trading—exactly the kind of muted tape many investors expect when liquidity thins ahead of a market holiday. The bigger takeaway for shareholders late today wasn’t a sudden price swing. It was a fresh corporate warning from Netflix about a mini‑tender offer that the company says is priced below the prevailing market price, plus the reality that U.S. markets are closed on Christmas Day—meaning the “next open” investors can act on is Friday, Dec. 26, 2025, not Thursday.
