Super Micro (SMCI) stock slips into year-end after SEC filing flags operations shake-up

Super Micro (SMCI) stock slips into year-end after SEC filing flags operations shake-up

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:49 ET — After-hours Super Micro Computer shares slid on Wednesday in thin year-end trading, as investors weighed a leadership change disclosed in a regulatory filing and a broader pullback in technology stocks. The move matters because Super Micro’s valuation has remained tightly tied to confidence in execution — shipping high-end server systems on time while managing margins in a competitive AI hardware market. It also lands as the company closes its fiscal second quarter on Dec. 31, setting up a fresh read on demand and delivery cadence when it next updates investors. Super Micro

Goldman Sachs stock slips after hours as Wall Street ends 2025 lower; GS earnings in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:38 ET — After-hours Goldman Sachs Group Inc (GS) shares fell about 0.6% to $879 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, after trading between $876.75 and $886.26 during the regular session. About 1.2 million shares changed hands. The slide followed a modest year-end drop across U.S. equities as investors trimmed risk ahead of the New Year holiday. For Goldman, a bellwether for trading and dealmaking, attention is already shifting to January’s earnings season. Why it matters now: bank shares tend to react sharply when the outlook for interest rates changes. That is because rates influence loan

Visa stock ends 2025 lower: why V slipped today and what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:32 ET — After-hours Visa Inc. shares fell on Wednesday, ending the year’s final session down 0.8% at $350.71. The stock was little changed in after-hours trading. The slide matters because Visa is a bellwether for digital payments, and its shares often move with expectations for consumer spending and travel. With 2025 closing out, investors used thin liquidity to square positions and rotate risk ahead of January data. U.S. stocks also ended lower in the final session of 2025, with the S&P 500 down 0.74%, the Nasdaq down 0.76% and the Dow down 0.63%, Reuters

Applied Digital (APLD) stock rises after hours as bullish analyst targets stack up ahead of Jan. 7 earnings call

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:23 ET — After-hours Applied Digital Corp shares were up 1.8% at $24.52 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, as investors weighed fresh bullish analyst commentary heading into the company’s next earnings update. The stock traded between $23.97 and $25.93 during the day, with about 29.0 million shares changing hands. The move matters because Applied Digital has become a high-beta wager on the buildout of artificial-intelligence computing capacity, where access to power, data-center space and specialized chips can dictate growth. With results due next week, traders are looking for clarity on demand and funding as the

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:22 ET — After-hours International Business Machines Corp shares fell 1.9% to $296.21 in after-hours trading on Wednesday after sliding in the year’s final session, according to market data. The move capped a subdued finish to 2025 for U.S. stocks, with the S&P 500 down 0.74% and the Dow off 0.63% in the final session as trading volumes stayed light and markets prepared to close on Thursday for New Year’s Day, Reuters reported.

AST SpaceMobile (ASTS) stock slides today as AT&T sets satellite beta timeline; insider buy filing in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:14 ET — After-hours Shares of AST SpaceMobile fell 2.7% on Wednesday, pulling back after a 4.5% rise a day earlier, as traders weighed new partner and regulatory signals into year-end positioning. StockAnalysis The pullback matters because AST SpaceMobile has become one of the market’s more volatile ways to bet on “direct-to-device” connectivity — using satellites to connect to standard, unmodified smartphones when users are outside cell-tower range. Google AT&T’s latest update put fresh attention on the near-term buildout needed for service, including ground infrastructure and a limited beta program. That timeline is a key

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:13 ET — After-hours IREN Limited (IREN) shares fell 1.4% to $37.77 at Wednesday’s close, extending a three-session slide to end the year. The stock edged up 0.1% to $37.81 in after-hours trading after moving between $37.20 and $39.03 in the session, with about 20.7 million shares changing hands.

NASA Mars goes radio-silent as solar conjunction stalls MAVEN recovery efforts

NASA Mars goes radio-silent as solar conjunction stalls MAVEN recovery efforts

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:11 ET NASA has entered a planned communications blackout with its Mars missions as a solar alignment known as conjunction begins, delaying efforts to re-establish contact with the MAVEN orbiter that has been silent since early December, the agency said. NASA said the pause starts Dec. 29 and it does not expect contact with any Mars missions until Jan. 16. NASA Science The timing matters because solar conjunction cuts off the routine back-and-forth needed to keep spacecraft operating smoothly and to troubleshoot anomalies. It also freezes recovery work on MAVEN at a moment when engineers

Chili’s takes aim at McDonald’s value meals with $10.99 deal as diners balk at fast-food prices

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 18:14 ET Chili’s Grill & Bar took aim at McDonald’s, Wendy’s and Burger King on Wednesday, arguing that fast-food value meals no longer feel like a bargain and promoting its own $10.99 burger-and-sides deal. The post landed as McDonald’s CEO Chris Kempczinski told investors, “We continue to see a bifurcated consumer base,” a reference to spending splitting between higher- and lower-income diners. Fox News+1 The exchange matters now because value is becoming a front-line battleground in U.S. dining, with more consumers watching every dollar as food inflation and higher menu prices squeeze budgets.

Walmart stock slips after hours as fresh insider filings and app outage hit the tape — what’s next for WMT

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 5:58 PM ET — After-hours Walmart Inc. shares were down about 0.5% in after-hours trading on Wednesday, extending a modest decline into the close of the year’s final session as investors weighed fresh insider disclosures and a recent digital outage. The timing matters because Walmart heads into 2026 after a strong 2025 run, leaving investors sensitive to any signals that management is trimming exposure or that key systems are vulnerable during peak shopping windows. The broader backdrop was also unsupportive. Wall Street’s major indexes ended 2025 lower in thin holiday trading, and “I do not

The stock was down 1.4% at $26.18, after trading between $26.08 and $26.90 with about 33.8 million shares changing hands.

The 10-year Treasury yield rose 3.5 basis points — one basis point is 0.01 percentage point — to 4.163% after jobless-claims data showed an unexpected dip in applications for unemployment benefits, a Reuters report said.
