BillionToOne (BLLN) stock slides 4% in thin year-end trade as investors look to January catalysts

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:27 ET — Regular session. Shares of BillionToOne (BLLN.O) fell about 4% on Wednesday, sliding $3.49 to $81.61 in afternoon trading. The stock has traded between $81.25 and $89.36, with about 243,000 shares changing hands. The move came on the final trading day of 2025, when liquidity is typically thin and price swings can look bigger than the underlying news. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity, pointing to profit-taking when liquidity is low.

Why Super Micro (SMCI) stock is down today: an exec retirement filing meets year-end AI trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 15:16 ET — Regular session Super Micro Computer, Inc. shares fell 1.7% to $29.15 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, after a regulatory filing showed the AI server maker’s head of operations will retire at year-end. The stock traded between $29.12 and $29.86. The timing matters because Super Micro’s customers care less about buzzwords and more about delivery schedules, power draw and cooling. Any hint of execution risk can move the stock quickly, especially into year-end when liquidity thins and position-squaring can exaggerate swings. The company said Senior Vice President of Operations George Kao will retire

Alignment Healthcare stock rises today despite new insider-sale filings, with ALHC near $20

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:50 ET — Regular session Alignment Healthcare, Inc. shares rose about 3.4% to $19.90 in mid-afternoon trading on Wednesday, after earlier touching $19.93 as the stock fluctuated between $18.83 and $19.93. The move came as investors weighed a cluster of insider-transaction disclosures that can shape sentiment in smaller healthcare names, especially in thin year-end markets. Liquidity has been patchy heading into the New Year holiday, a setup that can magnify price swings. “Profit-taking opportunities” tend to show up “when liquidity was low,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:52 ET — Regular session Cytokinetics, Incorporated shares rose 3.7% to $63.63 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, after touching $64.40 earlier in the session. The stock traded as low as $60.87, while the S&P 500 tracker and Nasdaq 100 fund were both down about 0.4% to 0.5%.

The company has said the drug should be available in the U.S. in the second half of January and will be distributed under a REMS program —

F&G stock drops nearly 3% as Fidelity National’s share distribution hits on Dec. 31

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:56 ET — Regular session Shares of F&G Annuities & Life Inc (FG) fell 2.9% to $30.90 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, after touching a session low of $30.90. The stock traded as high as $32.09 earlier in the day.

That matters now because distributions like this can reshape short-term trading. They often bring in shareholders who didn’t choose the stock and may sell quickly, increasing

Freedom Holding stock today: FRHC slides 3% in year-end session as markets drift lower

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:07 ET — Regular session Freedom Holding Corp (FRHC) shares fell about 3% on Wednesday, sliding to $121.99 in afternoon trading after touching an intraday low of $121.64. The drop lands on Wall Street’s final session of 2025, when trading often thins out as investors close books and rebalance portfolios. In a low-liquidity market — meaning fewer buyers and sellers to absorb trades — smaller orders can move prices more than usual. U.S. stocks drifted lower in holiday-thin trading, with tech weighing on the major indexes. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have

Trump offshore wind freeze heads to court as judge seeks classified evidence in Dominion case

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:45 ET A U.S. federal judge in Virginia has delayed Dominion Energy’s bid to quickly restart offshore construction on its Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project, as the court seeks access to classified material the Trump administration says underpins its stop-work order. The next hearing is set for Jan. 16, after the judge directed the government to submit the classified information to the court by Jan. 9 and to say by Dec. 31 whether it would share that material with Dominion’s security-cleared lawyers.

India fires two Pralay missiles back-to-back in salvo test, signalling induction is near

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:29 ET India’s Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) on Wednesday test-fired two indigenously developed Pralay missiles in quick succession off the coast of Odisha, in a user evaluation trial that officials said underscored the system’s readiness for service. The test matters because user evaluation trials are a late-stage proving process, typically involving the military “users” who will operate the system, and are usually among the final steps before formal induction. It also comes as India continues to strengthen its domestic weapons programme and expand conventional strike options, against the backdrop of long-running rivalry with

CoreWeave stock drops as insider sale filing hits thin year-end trade — what’s next for CRWV

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:40 ET — Regular session CoreWeave Inc shares were down 3.1% at $71.63 on Wednesday afternoon, after an insider sale disclosure drew attention in thin year-end trading. The stock hit a session low of $71.46. The timing matters because trading conditions are patchy heading into the New Year’s Day holiday, when lower liquidity can amplify moves in single names. For a recently listed company with a volatile tape, incremental supply can weigh on sentiment even without new fundamental news. Investors have also been sensitive to funding and dilution risk in capital-intensive AI infrastructure plays. CoreWeave

UHS stock sinks today after CEO contract extension filing — here’s what moved the shares

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:23 ET — Regular session Universal Health Services, Inc. shares were down 2.75% at $218.87 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, extending losses as the hospital operator underperformed its peer group. The stock was down $6.19 from Tuesday’s close and touched $218.59 at the session low, with about 293,000 shares traded. The move matters now because governance and pay disclosures can become a catalyst in thin year-end trading, when investors reassess leadership incentives and stewardship.

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

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:16 ET — Regular session Pitney Bowes Inc.’s NT 43 — its exchange-listed notes due 2043 — fell 3.0% to $21.04 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, after opening at $21.65. The security traded between $21.00 and $21.72, with volume around 50,000 shares as U.S. 10-year yields moved higher. Investing.com The move matters because NT 43 trades like a stock but behaves like a bond: when market interest rates rise, fixed-rate income securities often fall as investors demand a higher yield. Liquidity can also thin late in the year, amplifying price swings in niche, income-focused listings.
