GlobalFoundries (GFS) stock slides after Wedbush downgrade warns chip downturn will last longer

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:25 ET — Regular session Shares of GlobalFoundries Inc (GFS) fell 2.6% to $35.17 by 2:25 p.m. ET on Wednesday after Wedbush downgraded the contract chipmaker, pressuring the stock on the year’s final trading day. The shares touched $35.03 at the session low.

For GlobalFoundries, the timing matters because its business depends on keeping fabs busy; when customers cut orders, lower utilization means more fixed costs

Endeavour Silver stock falls in New York trade as silver rout hits miners ahead of China export curbs

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:17 ET — Regular session Endeavour Silver Corp (NYSE: EXK) shares fell 2.7% to $9.54 in early afternoon New York trading on Wednesday. The stock traded between $9.42 and $9.89, with about 9.3 million shares changing hands.

CME Group raised margin requirements on gold and silver futures for the

India freezes PPF, SCSS and Sukanya Samriddhi rates for Jan–Mar 2026 — what savers earn now

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:17 ET India’s finance ministry kept interest rates unchanged on a range of post office small-savings schemes for the January–March 2026 quarter, a decision that preserves returns on some of the country’s most widely held household savings products. Public Provident Fund (PPF) stays at 7.1%, while the Senior Citizen Savings Scheme (SCSS) and Sukanya Samriddhi Account remain at 8.2%, the ministry said. The Economic Times The rates matter because they set the floor for low-risk household returns just as the new quarter begins on Jan. 1, and many savers make or adjust contributions around year-end.

Chime stock slides nearly 4% in year-end trade as fintechs wobble

Chime stock slides nearly 4% in year-end trade as fintechs wobble

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:38 ET — Regular session Chime Financial (CHYM.O) shares fell about 3.9% to $25.30 on Wednesday, extending a pullback in the consumer fintech stock on the last trading day of 2025. The shares traded between $25.30 and $26.32 after opening at $26.29. The late-December tape is often noisy. Trading volumes can thin out around holidays, and that can amplify swings as investors rebalance books into year-end. That matters for Chime because newer, growth-leaning fintech listings tend to react quickly when investors rotate between riskier names and defensive corners of the market. Rate expectations also loom

Walmart stock slips in thin New Year’s Eve session after CEO sale filing

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:18 ET — Regular session Walmart Inc. (WMT) shares slipped 0.2% to $111.67 in afternoon trading on Wednesday, a subdued New Year’s Eve session for U.S. equities. The stock traded between $111.32 and $112.24 on volume of about 4.2 million shares. The move mattered less for its size than for its timing. With the year closing and many desks lightly staffed, small headlines and routine flows can move prices faster than usual. Walmart is widely watched as a read-through on U.S. household budgets and price sensitivity, given its scale in groceries and general merchandise. U.S.

Costco stock slips in year-end session as traders eye Jan. 7 sales update for COST

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:14 ET — Regular session Costco Wholesale Corporation shares were slightly lower on Wednesday as Wall Street eased in the final trading session of 2025. The muted move matters because Costco is closely watched as a bellwether for value-focused spending and membership-driven retail, especially heading into fresh monthly sales data in early January. It also comes during thin holiday trading, when smaller orders can have an outsized impact on prices and investors reposition ahead of the New Year’s market break. Costco shares were down $1.28, or about 0.1%, at $864.37 in afternoon trading. The stock

Exxon Mobil stock slips today as oil heads for biggest annual drop since 2020

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:11 ET — Regular session. Exxon Mobil (XOM) shares edged lower on Wednesday, down 0.6% at $120.22 in afternoon trade, after moving between $119.87 and $121.49. The muted move still mattered on the final trading day of the year, with oil prices on track for their steepest annual decline since 2020 and investors recalibrating expectations for 2026 cash flow across the sector. For integrated oil majors like Exxon, small changes in crude prices and refinery profitability can swing sentiment quickly, especially in holiday-thinned trading when liquidity is lighter. Brent crude, the global benchmark, was hovering

GE Vernova stock today: GEV edges lower in thin year-end trade as Wall Street dips

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 14:15 ET — Regular session. GE Vernova Inc. shares edged lower on Wednesday, sliding about 0.4% to $657.30 in afternoon trading as investors pared risk into the final session of 2025. The stock traded between $647.71 and $666.30. The move matters because GE Vernova has become a high-profile way to play rising spending on power generation and grid equipment, a theme tied to the buildout of electricity-hungry data centers. Into year-end, small shifts in positioning can move even large-cap stocks. With the New Year holiday set to interrupt trading and investors rebalancing portfolios, GE Vernova’s

The move tracked a modest dip in major U.S. indexes in the final trading session of 2025, with technology shares among the biggest drags as holiday-thinned liquidity amplified small swings. Reuters Treasury yields ticked higher after new data showed jobless claims fell to 199,000 in the week ended Dec. 27, undershooting economists’ expectations for a rise. Higher yields raise the discount rate investors use to value future profits, a headwind for
