NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:26 a.m. ET — Market closed Procter & Gamble Co. (NYSE: PG) enters the final trading days of 2025 with its share price hovering around the mid-$140s, a level investors have been debating for weeks as Wall Street weighs year-end positioning, interest-rate expectations, and whether defensive consumer staples deserve a bigger role in 2026 portfolios. With U.S. markets closed for the weekend, the most important question for PG shareholders is less about minute-to-minute price action and more about what could move the stock when trading resumes Monday—especially with thin holiday liquidity, looming Federal Reserve signals,

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:29 a.m. ET — Market Closed PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) enters the final stretch of the year with U.S. markets closed for the weekend and investors balancing two forces that often collide in late December: thinner liquidity and positioning ahead of a new year.

Trump told NBC he is considering $2,000 tariff rebate checks but has not committed, saying any payout would likely come later in 2026. The IRS warns taxpayers to ignore texts and emails about “stimulus payments” and verify notices through official channels.
