Silver Price Today (Dec 25, 2025): Spot Silver Holds Near $72 After Fresh Record High — What’s Driving XAG/USD Now

Silver is spending Christmas Day doing something traders love and hate in equal measure: calming down after a historic sprint. After ripping to a new all-time high around $72.70 per ounce, spot silver (XAG/USD) is now holding near the $72 area in thin holiday trading, with prices hovering roughly $71.5–$72.0 depending on the feed and timestamp. Dawn That “depending on the feed” line isn’t a cop-out—it’s the reality of a market that trades globally, across time zones, with liquidity noticeably reduced around Christmas.

Gold Price Today (December 25, 2025): Spot Gold Pares Gains Near $4,475 After Record $4,525 Breakout

Updated: Thursday, December 25, 2025 — Gold prices are taking a breath on Christmas Day after a blistering, record-setting sprint that pushed spot bullion through the psychological $4,500-per-ounce level. In thin holiday trading, spot gold eased to around $4,479 per ounce after earlier touching a fresh all-time high near $4,525, with traders locking in profits into the year-end break. Reuters That “pause” is happening on top of a much bigger story: 2025 has turned into a historic year for precious metals, with gold’s rally increasingly tied to a potent mix of rate-cut expectations, a softer U.S. dollar, and persistent geopolitical

U.S. Stock Market Today (Dec. 25, 2025): Wall Street Closed for Christmas After Dow and S&P 500 Hit Fresh Records

Wall Street is taking the day off. The U.S. stock market is closed today, Thursday, December 25, 2025, for the Christmas Day holiday, pausing trading after a holiday-shortened Christmas Eve session that sent the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 to new all-time closing highs. New York Stock Exchange With no regular-session trading in stocks today, the “U.S. stock market today” story is really about three things: where the major indexes left off, what headlines are likely to matter when trading resumes, and why the year-end “Santa rally” narrative is suddenly back in the driver’s seat.

Dow Jones Today (Dec. 25, 2025): DJIA Holds a Record Close as Wall Street Shuts for Christmas — What’s Next for the Santa Rally

NEW YORK — December 25, 2025 — The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is spending Christmas Day at an all-time closing high, even though U.S. stock markets are dark today.

Vanguard Says Flip the 60/40 Portfolio for 2026: Bonds Back, AI Risks Rising

Vanguard Says Flip the 60/40 Portfolio for 2026: Bonds Back, AI Risks Rising

December 25, 2025 — The classic 60/40 portfolio (60% stocks, 40% bonds) has long been the shorthand for “balanced” investing. But heading into 2026, one of the world’s most influential asset managers is pushing a noticeably different message: the next decade may reward a more bond-heavy mix—not because growth is collapsing, but because markets are pricing in a lot of good news, especially in U.S. mega-cap tech and AI. The timing is striking. With the S&P 500 closing at a record high on Christmas Eve and investors looking ahead to 2026, the debate over whether AI enthusiasm is “the new

BROOMFIELD, Colo. (Dec. 25, 2025) — A twin‑engine Beechcraft Super King Air 200 touched down at Rocky Mountain Metropolitan Airport (KBJC) near Denver with a twist that’s rippling across aviation: the airplane effectively landed itself using Garmin’s Emergency Autoland technology, in what Garmin and multiple aviation outlets describe as the first confirmed real‑world start‑to‑finish activation of the system during an actual emergency. ABC News While early air‑traffic audio and automated radio calls referenced “pilot incapacitation,” the aircraft’s operator later clarified that both pilots remained conscious and deliberately chose to let the automation complete the landing after an abrupt pressurization problem—an
