Pitney Bowes NT 43 drops 3% today as Treasury yields rise — what’s next for PBI.PRB

Pitney Bowes NT 43 (PBI-PB) slides 6% into year-end — what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 11:00 ET — Market closed Pitney Bowes Inc. NT 43 (PBI-PB) fell $1.30, or 5.99%, to $20.39 in the final trading session of 2025, after swinging between $21.99 and $20.28 on volume of 583,343. U.S. markets are closed on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. StockAnalysis The move matters because “NT 43” is not common equity — it is exchange-traded debt, meaning it trades like a stock but represents a loan to the company. These securities can gap on shifts in interest-rate expectations and on changes in how much risk investors want to hold.

Regencell Bioscience (RGC) stock slid 8% into the New Year’s Day market shutdown — what’s next

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:46 ET — Market closed. Regencell Bioscience Holdings’ shares last closed down 8.3% at $21 on Wednesday, just before U.S. markets shut for the New Year’s Day holiday.

Corcept Therapeutics (CORT) stock sinks after FDA rebuff; relacorilant outlook resets

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:45 ET — Market closed. Corcept Therapeutics Inc (CORT) shares last ended Wednesday down 50.4% at $34.80 after the company said U.S. regulators were not ready to approve its drug relacorilant for a form of high blood pressure linked to hypercortisolism. U.S. stock markets are shut on Thursday for New Year’s Day.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:34 ET — Market closed ICL Group Ltd (NYSE: ICL) shares last closed up 3.0% at $5.71 on Wednesday. U.S. stock markets were shut on Thursday for New Year’s Day, according to the NYSE holiday calendar.

Potash pricing is in focus after a late-December filing in which ICL said it signed contracts

National Stock Exchange of India stock today: Nifty ends flat as cigarette tax slams ITC, autos steady the market

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 09:47 ET — Market closed India’s Nifty 50 ended little changed on the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) on Thursday, as auto gains offset a sharp selloff in cigarette makers after New Delhi raised taxes on cigarettes.
