Pinterest, Inc. (NYSE: PINS) is back in the spotlight on December 22, 2025—not because of a surprise earnings report, but because today is a “mechanical catalyst” day for the stock: Pinterest is officially being added to the S&P MidCap 400 as part of S&P Dow Jones Indices’ quarterly rebalance. News Release Archive At the same time, investors are digesting a busy December for the company, including its planned acquisition of connected-TV (CTV) ad platform tvScientific and a fresh round of Wall Street rating changes that highlight a familiar tug-of-war: Pinterest’s improving performance-ad story versus macro pressure in advertising budgets and

Amazon Stock (AMZN) Today: OpenAI Talks, AWS AI Spending, and Ultra‑Fast Delivery Set the 2026 Debate

Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN) heads into the final stretch of 2025 with the market asking a deceptively simple question: Is Amazon about to re-accelerate—or just get more expensive to run? As of Monday, December 22, 2025 (15:31 UTC), AMZN traded around $227.64, after opening near $228.50 and moving between $227.00 and $229.42 intraday. That price action—calm on the surface—sits on top of a pile of big, noisy storylines investors are trying to price in at once: possible OpenAI investment talks, an AI leadership shake-up, new AWS chips and models, and a fresh push into ultra-fast delivery that could reshape how

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) Today: Tech Rebound, Holiday-Week Trading, and the Inflows Story on Dec. 22, 2025

Vanguard Total Stock Market ETF (VTI) is starting the holiday-shortened week in focus as U.S. stock futures rise and investors watch whether a late-year tech rebound can carry into the final trading days of 2025. In premarket action Monday, VTI was modestly higher, reflecting a market tone that has turned more constructive after a choppy stretch earlier this month. TipRanks That backdrop matters for VTI because the fund is often treated as a real-time “temperature check” on the entire U.S. equity market—covering mega-caps, mid-caps, small-caps, and micro-caps in one widely held ETF. Yet, as 2025 has repeatedly shown, broad-market exposure

December 22, 2025 — A holiday-shortened trading week began with a familiar theme powering Wall Street: renewed enthusiasm for artificial intelligence. U.S. stocks moved higher on Monday as tech shares continued to rebound, with investors looking ahead to late-week economic updates and the start of the market’s seasonal “Santa Claus rally” window. Reuters+1 In the middle of that AI-driven narrative, one of the “Magnificent Seven” names is drawing a different kind of attention: Microsoft’s quiet transformation into an income-and-capital-return powerhouse—even though its headline dividend yield remains below 1%.

AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) stock is starting the holiday-shortened week with investors weighing a familiar mix of telecom themes: steady dividends, heavy network investment, and the always-lively push-and-pull between “bond proxy” stability and competitive pressure in wireless. As of 15:18 UTC on Monday, Dec. 22, 2025, AT&T shares traded at $24.315, up about 0.68% on the session (intraday range roughly $24.06–$24.345).

Pfizer Stock Outlook for 2026: Oncology Momentum, Obesity Deals, and the Patent Cliff Investors Can’t Ignore

Pfizer Stock Outlook for 2026: Oncology Momentum, Obesity Deals, and the Patent Cliff Investors Can’t Ignore

As of Monday, December 22, 2025, Pfizer (NYSE: PFE) is once again at the center of a familiar market debate: is this a battered pharma giant destined to stay “dead money,” or a dividend-rich turnaround story that could surprise investors as its pipeline matures? The short-term reality is tough to miss. Pfizer has guided to flat-to-down revenue in 2026, with continued COVID-franchise erosion and an accelerating loss-of-exclusivity cycle. But the longer-term case—outlined in a wave of investor and analyst commentary this month—rests on whether Pfizer can execute in the two areas that matter most to its post-patent-cliff future: oncology and

Dec. 22, 2025 — Uber Technologies (NYSE: UBER) is ending the year with a familiar investor paradox: the business looks stronger on many core metrics, yet the stock has been trading like a company facing an “existential” technology threat. The latest catalyst arrived Monday with a headline that lands directly in the center of that debate—Uber and Lyft said they will work with China’s Baidu to launch driverless taxi trials in the U.K. in 2026, adding another major autonomy partner to Uber’s growing robotaxi web.
