Astera Labs (ALAB) Stock: Weekend Market Close, Fresh Filings, Analyst Targets, and What to Watch Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 10:46 p.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) Astera Labs, Inc. (Nasdaq: ALAB) is heading into the final trading days of 2025 with a familiar setup for high-beta semiconductor names: thin year-end liquidity, heightened sensitivity to AI-infrastructure sentiment, and a steady drip of filings that can move the conversation even when there’s no headline catalyst. With U.S. equity markets closed for the weekend, the latest “hard” reference point for ALAB is Friday’s close (Dec. 26): shares finished at $167.26, down 1.59% on the day after trading between $166.10 and $172.88, on volume of roughly 2.0 million

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 10:50 p.m. ET — Market closed Carvana Co. (NYSE: CVNA) heads into the final full trading week of 2025 with a familiar mix of ingredients: a still-hot momentum narrative, a newly “institutionalized” shareholder base after its S&P 500 inclusion, and the kind of valuation that makes both bulls and bears speak in italics. With U.S. equity markets closed for the weekend, investors are digesting Friday’s quiet, post-holiday tape and a batch of late-week commentary that frames a simple question for Monday’s open: is CVNA’s 2025 surge “done,” or just taking a breath before the calendar

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 9:25 a.m. ET — Market closed Saudi Arabia’s stock market is heading into its weekend pause with investors focused on three forces that have dominated recent sessions: softer oil, bank-heavy index performance, and thin year‑end liquidity.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 9:18 a.m. ET — Market closed Mexico’s main equity market is closed today for the weekend, giving investors a rare, quiet window to digest what was—despite thin holiday liquidity—another milestone week for Mexican stocks.

With the SIX Swiss Exchange shut for the weekend and trading thinned by year-end holidays, investors are heading into the next session with a familiar late-December cocktail: record-level equity benchmarks, light liquidity, and outsized sensitivity to global macro headlines.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 9:00 a.m. ET — Market closed. Singapore Exchange (SGX) heads into the final weekend of the year with two cross-currents that matter for both Singapore equities and the exchange operator itself: a quiet, liquidity-thinned post‑Christmas session that left the Straits Times Index (STI) essentially unchanged, and a fresh burst of macro data showing Singapore’s manufacturing engine still growing at a double‑digit pace—though slower than October’s surge.

The Korea Exchange (KRX) heads into the final full week of 2025 with two big narratives colliding: a powerful, semiconductor-led equity run that has pulled foreign capital back into Seoul—and a fast-moving regulatory and market-structure response from the bourse itself, aimed at keeping the rally liquid without letting surveillance slip.
