Lupin delays VISUfarma close date, doubles down on India obesity-drug push

NEW YORK, Dec 31, 2025, 1:25 ET Lupin said the closing timeline for its acquisition of Dutch eye-care company VISUfarma has been extended, with the transaction now expected to be completed by Feb. 28, 2026.

Lupin Lupin said the VISUfarma transaction is progressing and remains subject to customary closing conditions.

XRP price today: Ripple-linked token slips as year-end trading thins — key levels before 2026

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:42 ET — Regular session XRP, the cryptocurrency tied to payments-focused blockchain firm Ripple, was down about 2.1% over the past 24 hours at $1.83 on Wednesday afternoon in New York.

Silver price today: SLV slides as year-end profit-taking hits the metal

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:35 ET — Regular session Shares of iShares Silver Trust (SLV), a popular proxy for the metal, fell about 6% on Wednesday, tracking a sharp drop in silver prices on the final trading day of 2025.

Traders also had to contend with higher futures “margins” — the cash collateral required to hold leveraged contracts — which can force selling when the bar rises. Reuters Spot silver
