Analog Devices stock slips as year-end tech dip cools semis; what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:49 ET — Market closed. Analog Devices (ADI) shares slipped on Tuesday, ending down 0.3% at $274.82 as chip stocks drifted lower into the final stretch of the year. StockAnalysis The move matters because liquidity is thin in the holiday-truncated week, which can amplify relatively small shifts in positioning across semiconductors and other growth-linked stocks. Reuters Investors also digested minutes from the U.S. Federal Reserve’s December meeting, keeping interest-rate expectations in focus for rate-sensitive technology shares. Reuters ADI traded between $274.59 and $277.10 during the session after opening at $276.70, market data showed. StockAnalysis The

Union Pacific stock slips as rivals press regulators to reject Norfolk Southern merger filing; UNP sets Q4 earnings date

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:43 PM ET — Market closed Union Pacific Corporation shares fell 0.6% to close at $233.11 on Tuesday, as investors digested fresh pushback from rival railroads seeking to derail the company’s merger application with Norfolk Southern on procedural grounds. Yahoo Finance+1 The filings matter because the merger is entering a gatekeeping phase at the U.S. Surface Transportation Board, the federal regulator that oversees freight-rail competition and approves major rail combinations. If the board decides the application is incomplete, the review clock effectively resets. Surface Transportation Board+1 That timing risk is front and center for Union
Deere stock slips ahead of ex-dividend day as Fed minutes hit year-end trade

Deere stock slips ahead of ex-dividend day as Fed minutes hit year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 10:44 PM ET — Market closed Deere & Company (DE) shares were last down 0.05% at $469.94 after U.S. markets closed on Tuesday. The stock traded between $469.00 and $473.10 during the session. The move comes with Deere due to trade ex-dividend on Wednesday. “Ex-dividend” means the shares change hands without the right to the next dividend payment, so buyers on or after that date generally do not receive it. StockAnalysis That matters at year-end, when lighter liquidity can amplify small, technical flows. For dividend-paying stocks, positioning around the ex-dividend date can also pull demand

Seagate (STX) stock slips as 2025 AI-storage rally cools — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:25 ET — Market closed Seagate Technology Holdings plc shares fell 0.4% to close at $280.08 on Tuesday, after trading between $278.90 and $284.09. The pullback matters because Seagate has been one of the market’s standout “AI infrastructure” winners this year, riding demand for data storage as cloud companies build out data centers. With the calendar turning, investors are reassessing how much of that story is already in the stock. That debate has sharpened into year-end, when positioning can shift quickly and high-flying names often see profit-taking. Traders are also looking ahead to the company’s

IBM stock slips in thin year-end trade as tech rotation bites; eyes turn to Jan. 28 earnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 21:44 ET — Market closed International Business Machines fell 1.2% on Tuesday, ending at $302.05 as the stock eased back from recent highs in the final stretch of the year. Yahoo Finance The timing mattered. Liquidity tends to thin late in December, and that can amplify moves when investors rebalance portfolios heading into year-end. IBM has still gained about 37% so far in 2025, and Tuesday’s drop pushed it below key near-term trend levels that chart-focused traders track. A 50-day moving average — a simple trend gauge that smooths prices over 50 sessions — stood

Nu Holdings stock beats the market in thin year-end trade — what NU investors are watching next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:12 ET — Market closed Nu Holdings Ltd. (NYSE: NU) shares climbed 1.3% to $16.88 on Tuesday, ending higher even as Wall Street posted a modest decline in the penultimate session of 2025. The move mattered because liquidity is thin into year-end, which can magnify day-to-day swings and drive fast rotations between crowded trades and laggards. For Nu, the bounce comes after a weaker month. The stock has fallen about 4.7% over the past four weeks, leaving investors watching whether the next earnings update can reset sentiment. Nu traded between $16.60 and $17.11 during the

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:04 ET — Market closed Eaton Corporation plc shares edged lower on Tuesday, closing down 0.18% at $320.86, as Wall Street drifted modestly lower in light year-end trading. StockAnalysis+1 The move comes with markets heading into the final U.S. equity session of 2025, when thin liquidity can amplify even small shifts in risk appetite. Investors are also repositioning around interest-rate expectations, a key driver for industrial and infrastructure-linked stocks such as Eaton. Reuters Minutes from the Federal Reserve’s last policy meeting of the year — the detailed record of policymakers’ debate — showed divisions over

Silver snaps back after record-high whipsaw as India gold, silver prices swing into 2026

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 21:44 ET India’s silver futures jumped on Tuesday after a sharp one-day selloff from record highs, and gold futures also rebounded on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX). Silver’s March 2026 contract rose 7.59% to 241,458 rupees per kg and gold’s February 2026 contract gained 1.42% to 136,855 rupees per 10 grams, while benchmark prices from the India Bullion and Jewellers Association (IBJA) showed both metals lower, Jagran reported.

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:02 ET — Market closed. CrowdStrike Holdings, Inc. (CRWD) shares closed down about 0.1% at $475.63 on Tuesday after a filing showed the cybersecurity firm approved a new performance-based equity award for Chief Executive George Kurtz. The award is for a target 300,000 performance stock units — stock grants that vest only if targets are met — and can pay out between zero and 600,000 shares based on CrowdStrike’s three-year total shareholder return, or stock gains including dividends, versus S&P 500 constituents.

Palo Alto Networks stock flat after insider sale filings; PANW traders eye next earnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 22:06 ET — Market closed Palo Alto Networks shares finished flat on Tuesday after regulatory filings showed stock sales by two top executives, in muted year-end trading. SEC+1 The disclosures matter now because thin holiday liquidity can amplify reactions to company-specific signals, even when the transactions are routine. Investors also head into the final sessions of the year looking for clues on 2026 demand across cybersecurity budgets. The trades were reported in Form 4 filings, the SEC document insiders must file to disclose changes in their holdings. Both executives said the sales were made under

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 21:29 ET — Market closed Carvana Co. shares fell 0.9% on Tuesday to close at $429.55, after trading between $429.05 and $435.70. Volume was about 1.33 million shares, and the stock was little changed in after-hours trading, which takes place electronically after the 4 p.m. close. StockAnalysis The dip matters because Carvana has become a high-beta, heavily traded name after a sharp run this year, making it sensitive to shifts in risk appetite. The online used-car retailer also sits at the intersection of consumer demand and borrowing costs, with financing central to how many buyers

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 21:32 ET — Market closed DoorDash, Inc. shares closed down 1.25% at $228.13 on Tuesday, extending a second straight session of declines. Yahoo Finance+1 The timing matters because U.S. stocks will trade regular hours on Wednesday, the final session of 2025, before markets shut for New Year’s Day. Year-end positioning can magnify moves when liquidity thins.

Cadence Bank stock is stuck at $42.11 after Huntington deal — what CADE holders watch next week

7 February 2026
New York, Feb 7, 2026, 07:02 (EST) — Market closed. Cadence Bank shares (CADE) last traded at $42.11 on Jan. 30 and have been marked inactive, leaving investors with little to watch on the ticker itself heading into Monday’s U.S. session.
