XPeng Stock (NYSE: XPEV) Surges on Qatar Launch as Wall Street Weighs 2026 AI Plans, Deliveries, and Analyst Price Targets

NEW YORK — As of 12:03 a.m. ET on Saturday, December 27, 2025, U.S. stock markets are closed for the weekend. XPeng Inc. (NYSE: XPEV) last traded around $20.78, after a volatile Friday session that saw the stock jump roughly 6% on the day and trade between about $19.55 and $21.18.
