Intel stock dips in year-end trade as Nvidia’s $5 billion stake stays in focus for INTC

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:02 PM ET — After-hours Intel Corp (INTC) shares fell about 1.0% in Wednesday’s regular session to $36.90 and were little changed in after-hours trading. The stock ranged from $36.84 to $38.01 on the day, with volume around 51 million shares. The move tracked a tech-led dip that pulled the S&P 500 down 0.73% and the Nasdaq off 0.76% in holiday-thin trading, Reuters reported. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 16:50 ET — After-hours Robinhood Markets, Inc.

Oracle stock slips into after-hours as tech fades on final day of 2025

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 4:48 ET — After-hours Oracle Corp shares were down 1.2% at $194.91 shortly after the close on Wednesday, as trading thinned into the New Year holiday. The move matters now because Oracle has become a bellwether for investor appetite for big-ticket cloud infrastructure spending tied to artificial intelligence. With the calendar turning, portfolio managers are rebalancing exposure and scrutinizing cash needs across the AI supply chain. For Oracle, the debate has centered on how quickly cloud demand converts into profit while the company ramps spending on data centers — large, long-lived projects that can weigh

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 16:43 ET — After-hours Strategy Inc shares fell 2.3% to $151.95 in after-hours trade on Wednesday, after swinging between $151.44 and $157.48 earlier in the day.

Bitcoin is on track for its first yearly loss since 2022, after struggling to recover from an October peak above $126,000, Reuters reported. “Bitcoin

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 4:34 PM ET — After-hours Shares of Advanced Micro Devices Inc (AMD) slipped 0.5% in after-hours trading on Wednesday, and were last at $214.16. The modest move came as investors squared positions in high-profile technology names ahead of the New Year’s Day market holiday, a period when lighter trading can exaggerate price swings. For AMD holders, the timing matters because the stock sits at the center of the market’s artificial-intelligence trade — and investors are looking to 2026 for clearer signals on demand and margins as competition in AI chips tightens.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 16:36 ET — After-hours Alphabet’s Class C shares (GOOG) edged down 0.2% in after-hours trading on Wednesday to $313.80, after a muted year-end session that left the stock inside a $312.34 to $315.37 range.

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 4:28 PM ET — After-hours Amazon.com (AMZN.O) shares slipped 0.7% to $230.82 in after-hours trading on Wednesday after a soft finish to the last regular session of 2025.

Meta stock slips after-hours as scam-ad scrutiny mounts, Manus AI deal draws focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 4:35 PM ET — After-hours Meta Platforms (META) shares slipped about 0.9% in after-hours trading on Wednesday, hovering near $660. The Facebook and Instagram owner traded between $659.35 and $667.08 in the session. The year-end move comes as investors weigh two forces that can pull in opposite directions: Meta’s push to add new AI features and the risk that tougher fraud rules raise costs or slow ad sales. With liquidity thinning into holidays, company-specific headlines can have an outsized impact. Meta still relies on advertising for the bulk of its revenue, which makes brand safety
