Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) Stock: Latest News, FY26 Outlook, and Analyst Forecasts as Gold Prices Stay Elevated

Updated 21 December 2025 Evolution Mining Limited (ASX: EVN) is ending 2025 with the kind of momentum that makes gold miners impossible to ignore. The stock last closed at A$12.62 (19 December, the most recent ASX trading session before the weekend), with a market value around A$25.6 billion—after a powerful 12-month run that has re-rated the company from “solid producer” to “market heavyweight.” Fintel+2Yahoo Finance+2 But big rallies have a habit of attracting two things at once: fresh optimism and sharper scrutiny.

CSL Limited Stock (ASX: CSL) Outlook on 21 December 2025: Seqirus Spin-Off Delay, Buyback Momentum, and Analyst Price Targets

CSL Limited (ASX: CSL) heads into the final stretch of 2025 with its share price still under pressure—but with a growing stack of “things that matter” piling up beneath the surface: a sizeable on‑market buyback steadily absorbing stock, a major US manufacturing investment designed to reinforce its plasma-therapy moat, and a high-profile strategic reset that’s trying to simplify a complex, three‑engine biotech into something the market can price with less guesswork. As of the most recent trading day (Friday, 19 December 2025), CSL shares closed at A$175.08, after a volatile month that saw the stock slide from the mid‑A$180s toward

LONDON (21 December 2025) — The Bank of England has cut the UK base rate (Bank Rate) by a quarter-point to 3.75%, taking it below 4% for the first time in almost three years and setting up a pivotal start to 2026 for mortgages, savings and household budgets. Bank of England+1 But while the headline move sounds straightforward, the impact will land at different speeds depending on whether you’re on a tracker, a lender’s standard variable rate, or a fixed deal — and the Bank is also warning that future rate cuts are no longer a “given” and will be

Sydney — The Australian stock market is closed today (Sunday), but investors aren’t exactly switching off. With the S&P/ASX 200 finishing the last session higher and SPI 200 futures pointing to a modest lift when trading resumes on Monday (22 December), attention is shifting to a lighter holiday calendar, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s next signals, and a major index reshuffle that could drive stock-specific volatility even if the broader market stays calm.

National Australia Bank Limited (ASX: NAB) is heading into the final stretch of 2025 with a familiar “big bank” cocktail of tailwinds and headaches: resilient earnings, steady shareholder returns, and a macro backdrop that can turn on a single inflation print.

Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) is heading into the final stretch of 2025 with the same two forces pulling its share price in opposite directions: a market-leading retail banking franchise that investors treat like a “core holding,” and a valuation that many analysts still struggle to justify. Because 21 December 2025 falls on a Sunday, Australian equities aren’t trading today. The most recent pricing snapshot is therefore from Friday’s close (19 December 2025)—and it shows CBA stabilising after a volatile second half of the year, even as rate expectations swing again.
