Apple Stock (AAPL) News, Forecasts and Analyst Targets for Dec. 20, 2025: AI Roadmap, iPhone 17 Demand and App Store Regulation in Focus

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) heads into the December 20, 2025 weekend near record territory after a year defined by two intertwined storylines: sustained iPhone pricing power and an investor debate over whether Apple’s “Apple Intelligence” push can translate into a durable upgrade cycle in 2026—without sacrificing the high-margin Services engine that helps justify Apple’s premium valuation. With U.S. markets closed on Saturday, the most current reference point is Friday’s close: Apple stock ended Dec. 19 at $273.67 (up 0.54%) and traded slightly lower after hours, while Apple’s market capitalization hovered around $4.04 trillion.

Toronto Stock Exchange News Dec. 20, 2025: TSX Hits Record Close as Metals and Tech Rally, 2026 Forecasts Turn Bullish

TORONTO — The Toronto Stock Exchange is heading into the final stretch of 2025 with momentum that’s hard to ignore—and harder to neatly explain with “Canada’s economy is gloomy” headlines alone. On the last trading day before this weekend, the S&P/TSX Composite Index closed at a record 31,755.77, up 1% on the day, 0.7% on the week, and 28.4% year-to-date, putting 2025 on track for its strongest annual gain since 2009. Reuters Because Dec. 20, 2025 falls on a Saturday, markets are closed today—meaning investors are using the weekend to digest Friday’s breakout, year-end positioning, and a flood of 2026

FRANKFURT — Saturday, 20 December 2025. With the Frankfurt Stock Exchange shut for the weekend, investors are digesting Friday’s final session before the Christmas stretch: the DAX ended the day modestly higher around the 24,300 level, while a flurry of market-structure headlines—from Europe’s first equities consolidated tape to a renewed debate about ultra-low-latency tactics on Eurex—kept Frankfurt at the center of Europe’s capital-markets conversation.

Euronext in 2025: Latest News, Stock Forecasts and Analysis as Europe’s Market Plumbing Gets Rewired

Euronext isn’t just “a stock exchange operator” anymore. In late 2025 it’s behaving more like a full-stack piece of European financial infrastructure: trading venues, clearing, settlement and custody (through its CSD network), fixed income via MTS, ETFs via a newly integrated marketplace, plus a growing set of subscription software and data businesses. That mix is exactly why Euronext keeps showing up in the same conversations as the EU’s long-running ambition to make Europe’s capital markets less fragmented—and more globally competitive. As of 20 December 2025, the most consequential Euronext storylines are clustering around three big themes: Below is the full

HONG KONG — As of December 20, 2025, the Hong Kong Stock Exchange is heading into 2026 with a familiar mix of ambition and operational fine print: boost market liquidity, lower barriers for retail investors, and keep the IPO machine moving—without letting standards slip. Over the past week, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX)—the exchange operator—has launched a major consultation to standardise “board lot” trading units, published final conclusions on tightened ongoing public float rules that start in January 2026, and continued to host headline-grabbing listings as the city’s IPO rebound gains credibility.

SHENZHEN / BEIJING — December 20, 2025. The Shenzhen Stock Exchange (SZSE) is closed on Saturday, but the story of Shenzhen-listed equities is still moving—because the most important forces driving prices right now are not limited to the trading day. Heading into the final stretch of 2025, investors are weighing a familiar China-market mix: selective optimism around innovation and “new economy” themes, a persistent drag from property-sector stress, and close attention to market-rule tweaks that can change liquidity in a hurry.

SHANGHAI / BEIJING — December 20, 2025. The Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) is heading into the final stretch of 2025 with a familiar China-market cocktail: a consumer-led bounce, policy-driven thematic trades, and a tightening web of market governance—plus a notable step in opening the exchange bond market to overseas institutions. Friday’s onshore session (Dec. 19) delivered the headline that traders love because it’s both simple and symbolic: the Shanghai Composite briefly reclaimed the 3,900 level intraday, before ending the day just under it—still up, still green, and still pulling attention back to “old economy” consumer names after a long tech-led

Tokyo Stock Exchange Update (Dec. 20, 2025): BOJ Rate Hike, Yen Volatility, New ETFs, and the 2026 Outlook

Tokyo Stock Exchange (TSE) investors head into the weekend with a familiar Japanese-market paradox: the Bank of Japan (BOJ) has pushed rates to a three-decade high, yet the yen is still weakening—forcing portfolio managers to rethink what “tightening” actually means for Japanese equities going into year-end and early 2026. Reuters+1 With Tokyo markets closed on Saturday, December 20, 2025, the story is less about today’s tape and more about how Friday’s policy signals, currency swings, and exchange-level rule enforcement are setting up the next act on the Tokyo Stock Exchange—across blue-chip exporters, banks, small caps, ETFs, and the steadily intensifying

London, 20 December 2025 — The London Stock Exchange (LSE) heads into the final full trading week before Christmas with a rare combination of momentum and uncertainty: the FTSE 100 is pressing toward the 10,000 milestone, helped by heavyweight miners, defence names and globally diversified earnings — even as the UK economy looks soft, consumer data stays choppy, and policymakers signal that future rate cuts won’t be a straight line.

December 20, 2025 — The Nasdaq Composite heads into the weekend with a familiar vibe: optimism powered by AI and semiconductors, tempered by nagging questions about valuations, rate cuts, and whether the “AI buildout” is starting to look more like a capital-intensive endurance sport than a quick profit machine.

Reuters At the same time, NYSE’s parent, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE), is using year-end to underscore a third theme: capital formation is back.
