SINGAPORE (24 Dec 2025) — Singapore shares ended the Christmas Eve session slightly lower, with trading activity muted as investors headed into the festive break and liquidity thinned across global markets.

Canada Stock Market Today (Dec. 24, 2025): TSX Slips From Record Highs in Holiday Trading as Miners Cool Off and the Loonie Firms

Canada’s stock market ended Christmas Eve on a slightly weaker footing, with the S&P/TSX Composite Index easing back from this week’s record territory as profit-taking hit materials and mining names in a holiday-shortened sessionthat kept trading volumes light. The pullback was modest—but the day’s moves carried a clear year-end message: after a powerful run powered by precious metals, financials, and resource-linked momentum, investors appear increasingly selective about where they take risk into the final stretch of 2025 and the start of 2026.

UK Stock Market Today (24 December 2025): FTSE 100 Slips in Christmas Eve Trade as BP’s Castrol Sale and SolGold Takeover Lead Headlines

LONDON — UK shares ended Christmas Eve in the red after a holiday-shortened session defined by thin volumes, modest profit-taking and deal-driven stock moves. The FTSE 100 closed down 0.19% at 9,870.68, while the FTSE 250fell 0.16% to 22,314.50, as traders largely stepped back ahead of the two-day UK market closure for Christmas and Boxing Day. (investments.lloydsbank.com) With the London Stock Exchange operating an early close and much of Europe also running on reduced hours (or shut), the day’s action was less about macro shocks and more about specific corporate catalysts—most notably BP’s landmark Castrol divestment, and SolGold’s agreed takeover—alongside positioning into year-end after a standout 2025 for UK

Mumbai: Indian equities ended marginally lower on Wednesday, December 24, 2025, as holiday-thinned volumes kept benchmark indices range-bound and limited follow-through on global risk-on cues.
