AFJK jolts higher in premarket as Aimei Health extends a wild run into year-end

AFJK jolts higher in premarket as Aimei Health extends a wild run into year-end

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 05:02 ET — Premarket Aimei Health Technology Co., Ltd shares rose 38% to $114 in premarket trading on Wednesday, extending Tuesday’s outsized move in the Nasdaq-listed blank-check company. The stock ended the prior session up 89% at $82.58 after trading in a wide range. StockAnalysis The spike matters because Aimei’s share count shrank sharply after recent redemptions, a setup that can amplify price swings when even modest buying hits a thin market. In a Dec. 2 filing, the company said shareholders redeemed 3,942,661 public shares for about $44.8 million, and that it would have about

Profusa stock whipsaws: PFSA dips premarket after 78% surge on debt restructuring

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:32 ET — Premarket Profusa Inc shares were down about 12% at 10.7 cents in premarket trading on Wednesday, after soaring 78% to 12.2 cents in the prior session as investors reacted to the company’s debt restructuring. Tuesday’s session saw the stock trade between 10.8 cents and 17 cents, with volume jumping to about 822 million shares. StockAnalysis The moves matter because Profusa is a thinly traded, penny-stock name where small shifts in financing terms can dominate price action. For existing shareholders, the central question is dilution — how many new shares might be created

Urgent.ly stock jumps again in premarket as ULY extends a volatile run

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:26 ET — Premarket Shares of Urgent.ly Inc surged 26.8% to $3.50 in premarket trading on Wednesday, after the roadside-assistance software provider ended Tuesday up 52.5% at $2.76. StockAnalysis The outsized move is drawing attention to Urgent.ly’s thin trading profile and a recent corporate update that reset the clock on a key shareholder vote. That matters now because microcap stocks can gap sharply when order flow concentrates ahead of scheduled events. Finviz+1 Urgent.ly said in a Form 8-K — a filing used to disclose major corporate events — that it convened and then adjourned its

Vanda Pharma stock jumps premarket after FDA approves Nereus, first new motion-sickness vomiting drug in decades

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:27 ET — Premarket Vanda Pharmaceuticals’ shares surged about 18% in premarket trading on Wednesday after the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved its motion-sickness vomiting drug, Nereus (tradipitant). StockAnalysis+1 The approval matters now because Vanda is moving from a long-running regulatory story to a commercial one, with investors shifting quickly to questions of launch execution, insurance coverage and pricing. The company said it expects to launch Nereus in the coming months. Reuters+1 It also gives Vanda a fresh catalyst heading into year-end trading, when extended-hours moves can be amplified by thinner liquidity. Shares closed

NIO stock steadies in premarket as China rolls out 2026 trade-in subsidies for EVs

NIO stock steadies in premarket as China rolls out 2026 trade-in subsidies for EVs

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:12 ET — Premarket Shares of China’s NIO Inc were little changed in early premarket trading on Wednesday after climbing 3% in the previous session, as traders weighed fresh signs Beijing will keep leaning on consumer support into 2026. The focus is on policy, not company headlines. For EV makers, demand in China can turn quickly on rebates, financing incentives and price cuts — and investors have been hunting for visibility into early-2026 orders. The timing matters, too. Year-end trading can be thin, and China-linked American depositary shares (ADSs) often swing more than usual when

Stock Market Today: S&P 500 futures slip on New Year’s Eve as Meta’s Manus deal fuels AI chatter

Stock Market Today: S&P 500 futures slip on New Year’s Eve as Meta’s Manus deal fuels AI chatter

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:34 ET — Premarket U.S. stock index futures edged lower early Wednesday, setting up a cautious start to New Year’s Eve trading as investors weighed a fresh burst of dealmaking in artificial intelligence against a late-year pullback in big tech. The final session of the year tends to bring lighter volumes, and that can magnify moves as funds rebalance portfolios and adjust risk before year-end statements and benchmark resets. The S&P 500 is up about 17% so far this year and the Dow has logged a long monthly winning streak, leaving little tolerance for surprises.

Vodafone Idea gets Cabinet AGR dues freeze: payment pushed to FY32-FY41 after relief package

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 03:54 ET India’s cabinet has approved a relief package for Vodafone Idea, freezing the telecom operator’s adjusted gross revenue (AGR) dues at 87,695 crore rupees and deferring payment to fiscal years 2032 through 2041, the Economic Times reported on Wednesday, citing PTI sources. (https://m.economictimes.com/news/newsblogs/breaking-news-live-updates-december-31-2025-happy-new-year-2026-delhi-weather-aqi-fog-alert-uttarakhand-tourists-modi-trump-russia-ukraine/liveblog/126262168.cms) The decision matters because Vodafone Idea has faced a large statutory bill that has weighed on its ability to raise funding and invest in its network. It also lands in a market where India’s private telecom sector is led by Reliance Jio and Bharti Airtel, leaving little room for a weakened

Australian mortgage brokers end 2025 with rate cuts, bank shake-ups and an AI push — here’s what stood out

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 03:55 ET Australian mortgage brokers wrapped up 2025 with momentum from falling interest rates and a growing share of home-loan origination, even as bank rule changes and regulators’ scrutiny kept the sector on its toes. Mortgage Professional Australia said the October-to-December quarter was one of the year’s most unpredictable stretches, marked by “shock lending decisions” and fresh regulatory pressure alongside shifting Reserve Bank of Australia expectations. https://www.mpamag.com/au/news/general/2025-in-mortgages-final-quarter-sends-brokers-out-with-a-bang/560554 Why it matters now: brokers are heading into 2026 with more borrowers shopping around as rates ease, but also with lenders tightening policies in pockets of the market

Vodafone shares near £1 as buyback filing hits and valuation debate sharpens

Vodafone shares near £1 as buyback filing hits and valuation debate sharpens

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 03:53 ET Vodafone shares hovered just below the £1 level on Wednesday, trading at about 99.22 pence in London, as the telecoms group continued a steady run of share buybacks into year-end. (https://www.investing.com/equities/vodafone-historical-data) The move matters because the one-pound mark is a psychological threshold for retail and institutional investors in the U.K., where Vodafone is a heavyweight in the FTSE 100. It also comes as trading volumes thin out around the holidays, making price levels and corporate buying programmes more visible in daily market moves. In a regulatory filing on Tuesday, Vodafone said it repurchased

New Year’s supermarket opening times UK: Tesco and Asda cut hours as Aldi shuts Jan. 1

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 03:53 ET Britain’s Aldi will close its UK stores on New Year’s Day, according to the discounter’s holiday opening hours. ALDI The timing matters because Wednesday is New Year’s Eve, a peak day for last-minute grocery runs ahead of celebrations. New Year’s Day is a UK bank holiday, and shorter trading windows can leave fewer options for shoppers. Retailers are publishing holiday schedules branch by branch, and hours can differ sharply between big supermarkets and smaller convenience formats. Most chains are directing customers to check store locators for specific sites before travelling. In London, local

AI stocks today: Nvidia’s China H200 chip rush puts chipmakers in focus before New Year trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 03:59 ET — Market closed Nvidia (NVDA.O) has approached contract chipmaker Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co (2330.TW) to ramp output of its H200 graphics processing units — chips used to train and run artificial-intelligence models — as demand from Chinese tech firms jumps, sources told Reuters. Chinese companies have ordered more than 2 million H200 chips for 2026, far above the roughly 700,000 units Nvidia holds in inventory, the people said. TSMC is expected to begin work on expanded output in the second quarter of 2026, and the plan depends on whether Beijing clears H200 imports

EQT stock wobbles premarket as U.S. natural gas futures slide after weather-driven rally

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 04:06 ET — Premarket EQT Corp shares were last down about 0.5% in extended trading early Wednesday, tracking a pullback in U.S. natural gas futures. Investing.com+1 The move matters because producers’ revenue is tied to natural gas prices, which can swing sharply in winter as heating demand rises and falls with the weather. This week’s volatility has been amplified by strong liquefied natural gas (LNG) export demand — LNG is natural gas cooled into a liquid for shipment — which can tighten the domestic market when export plants pull more fuel from U.S. pipelines. hellenicshippingnews.com
