IREN stock slips today as year-end tech jitters hit AI data-center plays

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:56 ET — Regular session Shares of IREN Ltd fell 1.4% to $38.87 in midday trading on Tuesday, pulling back after an early climb to $39.94. The slide matters because IREN has become a high-beta proxy for two crowded trades at once: bitcoin-linked miners and AI data-center buildouts. That mix can amplify moves when liquidity thins late in the year and investors rotate out of riskier growth names. Reuters It also keeps attention on capital needs. IREN is building out AI infrastructure, and traders have stayed sensitive to any hint of equity dilution or added

GE Aerospace stock is up today as GE shares steady after ex-dividend reset

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 13:05 ET — Regular session GE Aerospace shares edged higher on Tuesday, up about 0.2% at $312.2 in afternoon trading in New York. The move comes in holiday-thin markets, when light liquidity can make small shifts in positioning look bigger than they are. For GE, the calendar matters: the stock began trading ex-dividend on Monday, meaning new buyers no longer qualify for the next quarterly payout. GE fell 1% on Monday and finished about 2% below its 52-week high of $318.06 set last week, while peers Honeywell and RTX slipped less, MarketWatch data showed. MarketWatch

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:55 ET — Regular session AbbVie Inc. shares fell 0.8% to $228.89 in midday trading on Tuesday. The stock ranged between $228.66 and $231.55 after opening at $230.77, with volume near 795,000 shares. The move came as Wall Street traded with little direction in holiday-thinned turnover, leaving the Dow down 0.24%, the S&P 500 off 0.09% and the Nasdaq lower by 0.07% around midday, Reuters reported. Investors were awaiting minutes from the Federal Reserve’s Dec. 9-10 meeting, when it cut rates by 25 basis points — a quarter of a percentage point — but signaled

T-Mobile stock is up today: TMUS holds steady as Fed minutes loom in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:45 ET — Regular session Shares of T-Mobile US, Inc. (TMUS) were up about 0.2% at $203.55 in midday trade on Tuesday. The stock has traded between $202.00 and $203.71 so far in the session.

Why Newmont stock is up today: gold rebounds and Fed minutes loom

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 13:00 ET — Regular session Newmont Corp shares rose 2.7% to $102.48 by 12:44 p.m. ET on Tuesday, after trading between $100.31 and $102.70. Volume stood at about 3.36 million shares. The move mattered because it followed a sharp reversal in precious metals and mining stocks on Monday, when Newmont was the worst-performing stock in the S&P 500, down nearly 6%. CME’s higher margin requirements — the cash traders must post to hold futures positions — added to the pressure across metals-linked trades. Investopedia Gold’s direction remains the main macro driver for the sector at

Pan American Silver stock today: PAAS climbs as silver rebounds after margin shakeout

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:49 ET — Regular session Pan American Silver Corp (PAAS) shares rose 2.1% to $53.36 by 12:49 p.m. ET on Tuesday, tracking a rebound across silver-linked miners. The stock traded between $52.44 and $54.32, with about 2.6 million shares changing hands. The move matters because silver has been whipsawed into the final days of the year, and miners often magnify those swings. For producers, revenue moves with the metal while many operating costs remain relatively fixed in the short run. That operating leverage can boost cash flow quickly when silver rises, but it can also

Orla Mining (ORLA) stock edges higher as gold rebounds; Fed minutes in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:51 ET — Regular session Shares of Orla Mining Ltd (ORLA) rose about 0.7% to $13.80 in midday trading on Tuesday on the NYSE American. The stock touched $14.23 and $13.71 so far in the session. The move mirrored a rebound across precious-metals miners after bullion swung violently at the start of the week.

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:45 ET — Regular session Crocs Inc shares rose 0.6% to $86.49 in midday trading on Tuesday, stabilizing after Monday’s sharp decline. The stock fell 6.2% in the prior session and sits about 30% below its 52-week high. investing.com The move matters because late-December liquidity can amplify swings, especially in consumer-facing names that sit at the intersection of rates and spending. Crocs has been caught in that crosscurrent after a volatile stretch into year-end. Investors are trying to separate short-term tape action from the bigger question: whether Crocs can keep demand steady while protecting margins

Gold Fields stock rebounds as gold steadies, with Fed minutes next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:43 ET — Regular session Gold Fields Limited shares rose about 2.5% to $44.69 in midday trading on Tuesday, recovering some ground after the prior session’s selloff. The U.S.-listed ADR traded between $44.07 and $45.47. The bounce matters because gold-linked assets have been swinging sharply into year-end, a period when thin liquidity can exaggerate price moves. Gold and silver slid hard on Monday after the CME raised margin requirements — the cash traders must post to hold futures positions — prompting profit-taking. Investopedia Investors also have a fresh catalyst later on Tuesday: minutes from the

Reddit stock price today barely moves as CTO share-sale filing and AI-search thesis collide

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:33 ET — Regular session Reddit shares were little changed on Tuesday, holding near $234.60 in midday trading, as investors digested an insider sale disclosed in a regulatory filing and a fresh round of bullish talk on the company’s role in AI-driven search. The muted move matters because Reddit has been one of the market’s standout winners since its March 2024 debut, and attention is shifting from momentum to whether the platform can keep turning AI-driven attention into ad dollars.
