Plug Power stock ends 2025 higher after analyst upgrade — with a key share-vote ahead

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:30 ET — Market closed Plug Power shares ended the year on a firmer note after Clear Street upgraded the hydrogen fuel-cell maker, even as U.S. equity markets went dark on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. TipRanks+1 The upgrade matters heading into the first trading day of 2026 because Plug’s stock has been volatile and investors remain focused on financing risk at cash-hungry clean-energy names, where new share issuance can quickly dilute existing holders. TipRanks+1 It also lands as shareholders head toward a late-January vote that could expand Plug’s ability to issue stock.

NIO stock set for a fresh test after record December deliveries as U.S. market reopens

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:30 ET — Market closed NIO Inc said it delivered a record 48,135 vehicles in December, capping a record quarter for the Chinese electric-vehicle maker. Its U.S.-listed shares last closed at $5.10, down 7.4%, with Wall Street shut on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:15 ET — Market closed Vertiv Holdings Co shares ended the final trading session of 2025 down 1.5% at $162.01, as U.S. markets stayed closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day. Reuters The move matters because Vertiv has become a closely watched proxy for spending on data centers, including power and cooling gear needed for AI-heavy computing loads. That makes the stock sensitive to shifts in risk appetite as investors reset positions at the start of a new year. Vertiv Holdings Co.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 19:15 ET — Market closed Pan American Silver Corp (NYSE: PAAS) shares last closed down about 1.7% at $51.81 on Dec. 31, trimming gains into year-end after a sharp run-up for precious metals. Yahoo Finance The pullback matters because 2026 is starting with bullion prices still near record territory, and silver miners tend to magnify swings in the underlying metal as investors reset risk.

Cisco stock today: CSCO heads into Jan. 2 ex-dividend as Wall Street reopens

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 7:07 PM ET — Market closed Cisco Systems (CSCO) shares will return to trading on Friday with the stock set to go ex-dividend, a calendar event that can sway near-term price action. The shares last closed down about 0.5% at $77.03. The timing matters because Jan. 2 marks the first U.S. trading day of 2026 and post-holiday liquidity — how easily shares change hands without moving the price — can be thin. Dividend-related flows can magnify moves when company news is light. Cisco heads into the reopening after U.S. stocks ended 2025 lower, with the

U.S. stock markets were closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day, according to the NYSE holiday calendar.
