Real Estate Stocks Today: REITs Head Into the Weekend With Rates in Focus and a 2026 Rebound Narrative Building

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 1:41 p.m. ET — Market closed U.S. real estate stocks enter the final stretch of 2025 with a familiar catalyst back in the driver’s seat: interest rates. With Wall Street closed for the weekend, investors in REITs and other real estate equities are using the pause to assess what Friday’s thin, post-holiday session signaled—and what could move the group when trading resumes Monday. The big picture is straightforward: real estate has struggled to keep pace with the broader market this year, but strategists see multiple pathways for a better setup in 2026, particularly if rate

Basic Materials Stocks: Copper Hits Records, Precious Metals Surge, and the Materials Sector Leads—What Investors Need Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 1:41 p.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) Basic materials stocks are heading into the final trading stretch of 2025 with fresh momentum—and it’s being driven less by company-specific headlines and more by a powerful macro cocktail: record-setting metals prices, expectations for easier U.S. monetary policy, and year-end market rotation into cyclical sectors. In the most recent U.S. session (Friday, Dec. 26), trading was light after the Christmas holiday. The major indexes ended fractionally lower, but the market stayed close to record territory. In that subdued tape, the S&P 500’s materials sector stood out as the

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 12:57 PM ET — Market Closed Industrials stocks are heading into the final week of 2025 with momentum still intact—but with holiday-thin liquidity, investors are increasingly focused on what will matter once normal volume returns: defense spending signals, transport demand trends, and whether business investment can stay resilient as rates and tariff headlines continue to shape corporate planning. U.S. equities ended the latest session (Friday, Dec. 26) only slightly lower in quiet, post-Christmas trading, after a strong run into the holiday stretch.

With U.S. markets closed for the weekend, investors are digesting Friday’s post-holiday session and preparing for catalysts that can quickly reset sentiment when trading resumes Monday—especially the next round of U.S. government energy data and any weekend developments tied to Ukraine and Venezuela.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 12:57 p.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) Healthcare stocks are heading into the final trading days of 2025 with a rare mix of “defensive” support and headline-driven volatility—exactly the combination that can matter most when liquidity is thin and investors are rebalancing portfolios into year-end. U.S. stock markets are shut today, but Friday’s post-Christmas session left a clear message: the broader market is still hovering near record levels, and investors have been widening their focus beyond mega-cap technology—an environment that can favor large-cap healthcare even as biotech remains more catalyst-sensitive.

In the final stretch of 2025, investors are still pricing a simple reality: AI growth is increasingly constrained not by software ambition, but by the physical stack—chips, servers, networking, cooling, and, most critically, electricity.

Quantum computing stocks are ending the week on a cautious note after a sharp Friday pullback, even as the broader U.S. market remains close to record levels in what’s typically a thinly traded, post-holiday stretch. In the latest regular session (Friday, Dec. 26), several of the most-followed “pure-play” quantum names fell meaningfully, underscoring the sector’s defining trait for investors: extreme sensitivity to sentiment, liquidity, and narrative shifts—especially during year-end trading conditions.
