MARA stock slips as bitcoin fails at $90,000; Fed minutes in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:23 ET — Market closed MARA Holdings Inc shares slipped 1.1% to $9.49 in the last session, after trading between $9.38 and $9.84 on volume of about 29.6 million shares. Bitcoin fell about 2% to $87,869. The move matters because bitcoin miners tend to amplify swings in the underlying token. They earn revenue in bitcoin while paying many costs — including power and equipment — in dollars, which can widen the impact of crypto price moves on equity valuations. Bitcoin retreated toward $87,000 after failing to hold above $90,000, a level traders have treated as

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:15 ET — Market closed Rigetti Computing, Inc. (RGTI) shares fell 0.49% to close at $22.27 on Monday and slipped 0.13% in after-hours trading to $22.24. The stock has pulled back about 17% from its Dec. 22 close after a sharp late-December run, and traded between $21.53 and $22.77 on volume of about 33.4 million shares.

Pfizer stock today: PFE holds near $25 as year-end trading turns to Fed minutes and next earnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:31 ET — Market closed Pfizer Inc (PFE) shares were last down 0.3% at $25.00 in after-hours trading, after ending Monday at $25.09. The stock traded between $24.98 and $25.19 in the regular session. With U.S. markets in the final stretch of the year, volumes typically thin and position-adjusting can drive short-term moves. That leaves investors leaning more on the next clear catalyst than on day-to-day headlines. Wall Street’s main indexes ended lower on Monday as megacap tech shares retreated, and traders have the minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last meeting and weekly jobless claims

Bitcoin to $40,000? Macro strategist Luke Gromen trims risk as gold regains ground

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:02 ET Global macro analyst Luke Gromen is trimming his bitcoin exposure and warned the cryptocurrency could slide toward $40,000 in 2026, even as he still expects debt-heavy governments to lean on inflation and weaker currencies. “A move toward the $40,000 range in 2026 is possible,” Gromen said on the RiskReversal podcast. Bitbo His caution is gaining attention as bitcoin trades in thin year-end conditions and has struggled to hold above $90,000.

A higher rating can widen the pool of buyers for a government’s bonds and sometimes ease financing costs.

Bitcoin ATM scam costs Nebraska couple $250,000 as crypto kiosk fraud draws fresh warnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 03:06 ET An 82-year-old and 84-year-old Nebraska couple were scammed out of $250,000 after imposters posing as Amazon and the FBI pushed them to pay through bitcoin ATMs, Western Union transfers and Apple cards, the Lancaster County Sheriff’s Office said.

NEW YORK, Feb 7, 2026, 06:21 EST — Market closed. GE Vernova Inc shares rebounded on Friday, closing up 5.7% at $779.35 after two down sessions. (Yahoo Finance) The bounce came alongside a broad Wall Street rally that pushed the Dow to its first close above 50,000, a session that rewarded big industrial and cyclical names after a rough stretch for parts of tech.
