Stock market open today? NYSE and Nasdaq reopen after New Year’s Day — here are the trading hours

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 09:38 ET Wall Street opened the first trading session of 2026 on Friday after U.S. markets closed on New Year’s Day. Reuters The holiday schedule matters for investors placing orders, moving cash and managing risk after a midweek pause. It can also thin out trading in some assets, which can widen price swings. “The market is looking for direction,” said Matthew Maley, chief market strategist at Miller Tabak, as investors turn to January data for fresh signals. Reuters The Nasdaq said U.S. markets were closed on Thursday, January 1, for New Year’s Day, and that

ASML shares jump after surprise Aletheia upgrade flips outlook on EUV demand

AMSTERDAM, January 2, 2026, 08:58 ET ASML (ASML.AS) shares rose more than 3% on Friday after Aletheia Capital upgraded the Dutch semiconductor equipment maker to “buy” from “sell” and doubled its price target — an analyst estimate of where a stock should trade — to $1,500. Investing The upgrade matters because investors are starting 2026 looking for fresh signals on chipmaker spending after an artificial intelligence-led investment cycle powered demand for advanced manufacturing tools. It also puts the spotlight back on ASML’s order pipeline, a closely watched read-through for the wider semiconductor equipment sector. Reuters Aletheia analyst Warren Lau said

Bitcoin price today: BTC edges toward $90,000 as ETF flows and U.S. jobs data come into focus

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 09:59 ET — Regular session Bitcoin rose about 2% on Friday to $89,555, extending a rebound into the first U.S. trading session of 2026 as buyers again tested the $90,000 threshold. The move comes after bitcoin ended 2025 down more than 6% following a sharp fourth-quarter pullback from an October record above $126,000, a slide that underlined the token’s sensitivity to wider risk appetite. Reuters That matters now because spot bitcoin exchange-traded funds, or ETFs, have become a primary channel for institutional demand and can amplify moves when flows swing. U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs saw

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 09:54 ET — Regular session Spot gold was up about 1% at around $4,369 an ounce in New York morning trade on Friday, pricing data showed. JM Bullion The move keeps bullion on investors’ screens at the start of the year after a blockbuster 2025 run, when safe-haven demand and rate-cut bets helped lift precious metals broadly.

Spot silver was up 3.4% earlier on Friday after hitting an all-time high of $83.62 on Monday, Reuters reported. “Bulls seem to be drawing strength from geopolitical risk and hopes of lower U.S. rates,” said Lukman Otunuga, senior research analyst at FXTM.

The SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (DIA), which tracks the 30-stock index, was down about 0.1%. Why it matters now: the year is starting with U.S. stocks near record territory, but investors are still digesting a late-December pullback and a crowded January calendar.

Tesla stock ticks up after Q4 deliveries miss estimates as 2026 trading begins

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:52 ET — Regular session Tesla shares edged higher in early U.S. trading on Friday after the electric-vehicle maker reported fourth-quarter deliveries that fell short of Wall Street expectations, reviving questions about demand as the new year’s first regular session got underway. The deliveries update matters now because it is one of the first hard readouts on U.S. EV demand after a $7,500 federal tax credit ended in late September, pushing effective prices higher for many buyers.

NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:24 ET — Premarket Transocean Ltd shares rose 0.4% to $4.13 in premarket trading on Friday, a muted move as U.S. markets prepared to open for the first session of 2026. The offshore driller is starting the year with investors still debating what oil prices mean for exploration budgets and long-cycle offshore projects. Those projects can take years to sanction and tend to need stable crude prices before operators commit capital. That matters now because offshore drillers sell time on rigs under multi-month or multi-year contracts, and pricing hinges on how tight the market is.

10-year Treasury yield holds near 4.15% as 30-year touches September high to start 2026NEW YORK, Jan 2, 2026, 09:02 ET

The yield on the U.S. 30-year Treasury briefly climbed to about 4.88% on Friday, its highest since early September, before easing back as buyers returned in the first trading session of 2026. The benchmark 10-year yield held around 4.15%.
