Australia Stock Market Today (24 December 2025): ASX 200 Slips in Christmas Eve Trade as Banks Drag, Gold Hits Records and the Aussie Dollar Jumps

Sydney, Wednesday 24 December 2025 — Australia’s share market has started Christmas Eve on a softer footing after a strong pre-holiday run, with the S&P/ASX 200 down roughly 0.3%–0.4% in early trade (hovering around the 8,760level) as investors navigate thin liquidity, a surging Australian dollar and a fresh round of central-bank signal watching. ABC+1 The tone today is “risk management” rather than “Santa rally.” Most sectors have drifted lower, and the market’s defensive posture is especially visible in consumer discretionary, utilities and financials, while materials and energyhave been the rare bright spots—helped by commodities strength and the global backdrop.

HONG KONG — Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2025.

HKEX+1 Before the opening bell, Hang Seng futures were last indicated slightly lower, signalling that early moves may be choppy rather than directional — a dynamic that can intensify on half-days when fewer institutional participants are active and price gaps can widen.

Singapore Stock Market Today: SGX Eyes a Quiet Christmas Eve Open After STI’s Record Close (24 Dec 2025)

Singapore stocks head into the Christmas Eve session with the Straits Times Index (STI) sitting at fresh highs, local inflation staying subdued, and Wall Street providing a late-year tailwind after the S&P 500 printed another record close overnight. The main caveat for traders and investors this morning: liquidity will likely be thin, with SGX running a half-day and global desks already in holiday mode—conditions that can amplify small price moves.

Tokyo stocks are heading into the Dec. 24, 2025 opening bell with a familiar end‑of‑year mix: supportive global risk sentiment after another strong U.S. session, but thin holiday liquidity and currency swings that could quickly cap upside—especially for Japan’s exporter‑heavy leaders. Early indicators point to a range‑bound start rather than a decisive breakout. A domestic preview projected the Nikkei 225’s expected range around 50,200–50,700, citing the tailwind from U.S. gains but also the pullback in overseas participation as global investors step away for Christmas. 注目株の株式新聞Web | ニュース・適正株価・銘柄情報Another widely followed pre‑market note likewise flagged a positive bias at the open on U.S. tech strength, while still framing the day as a holiday‑thinned, technical trading
