Silver Price Today (Dec. 26, 2025): Spot Silver Hits Record $75 as Rate-Cut Bets and Tight Supply Supercharge the Rally

Silver is ending 2025 with a bang loud enough to rattle the bullion vaults. On Friday, December 26, spot silver surged to a fresh all-time high above $75 per ounce, as a mix of rate-cut expectations, a softer U.S. dollar, geopolitical unease, and persistent supply tightness pushed investors back into precious metals. Reuters Silver price today: the latest spot and futures levels Silver’s move isn’t just a “nice up day”—it’s a high-velocity continuation of a rally that’s been accelerating through December. Here’s where the market stood in widely followed benchmarks: Small differences between “spot,” “XAG/USD,” and “futures” prints are normal—each

Copper Hits Record in China and Jumps in New York as Tariff Uncertainty Fuels a 2026 Supply Squeeze — and a “Phantom Deficit” Debate

Copper Hits Record in China and Jumps in New York as Tariff Uncertainty Fuels a 2026 Supply Squeeze — and a “Phantom Deficit” Debate

December 26, 2025 — Copper closed out the post‑holiday week with a fresh surge that underscores just how unusual—and how politically sensitive—the global metals market has become. Prices pushed to all‑time highs in Shanghai and jumped again in New York, as traders weighed tightening feedstock signals for 2026 against a tariff-shaped supply chain that is increasingly split into “U.S. copper” and “everyone else’s copper.” The Business Times Behind the rally is a collision of forces: persistent concentrate tightness, mine disruptions that have kept investors on edge, and the lingering question of how far the United States will go in expanding

Gold Price Today Hits Record High Near $4,530 as Fed Rate-Cut Bets Spark Year-End Safe-Haven Rush

Gold Price Today Hits Record High Near $4,530 as Fed Rate-Cut Bets Spark Year-End Safe-Haven Rush

Gold price today (Friday, December 26, 2025) surged to fresh all-time highs, extending a breakout above the psychologically loaded $4,500 level as traders leaned into a familiar cocktail: safe-haven demand, expectations of easier U.S. monetary policy, and thin holiday liquidity that can turn a normal move into a dramatic one. Reuters Spot gold touched a new record peak of $4,530.60 per ounce in early Asian trading before easing back toward the $4,500 area—still up on the day. Reuters reported spot gold at $4,501.44 around 0209 GMT, and later at $4,511.70 around 0704 GMT, reflecting continued bid-side pressure even after the

US Stock Market Today (Dec. 26, 2025): Dow, S&P 500, Nasdaq Return From Christmas With “Santa Rally” Season in Focus

NEW YORK — U.S. stocks head into Friday’s session (December 26, 2025) with Wall Street trying to extend a late-year push that has already lifted major indexes to fresh records. Trading is expected to be lighter than usual—many desks are thinly staffed, and several overseas markets are closed—making prices more prone to quick swings even when the headlines feel quiet. Investing The big question for “US stock market today” coverage isn’t just whether the Dow Jones Industrial Average, S&P 500, and Nasdaq can add to this week’s gains—but what kind of rally this is: a steady, fundamentals-driven grind higher, or

Dow Jones Today (Dec. 26, 2025): DJIA Slips After Record Close as “Santa Rally” Meets Holiday-Thin Trading

NEW YORK — The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is back in action on Friday, December 26, 2025, after U.S. markets were closed for Christmas Day. After notching a fresh record close in the pre-holiday session, the blue-chip index has cooled a touch in early post-Christmas trading, with liquidity expected to stay thin as many desks remain lightly staffed and large parts of Europe observe Boxing Day. Reuters At last check, the Dow’s real-time “derived” reading was hovering around 48,637, down roughly 0.2% (about 100 points) from the prior close, after the index last officially closed at 48,731.16.

Nuvama Wealth Stock Split Explained: Why Shares Show an “80% Fall” on Dec 26, 2025 — Plus DCM Shriram Demerger, Ram Ratna Bonus and Hilton Rights Issue in Focus

Indian markets reopened after the Christmas trading holiday to a familiar kind of investor whiplash: price screens flashing what looks like a sudden collapse in a well-followed stock — even though nothing “crashed” in the underlying business. The headline move on Friday, December 26, 2025 was in Nuvama Wealth Management, where several trading apps and watchlists appeared to show a plunge of nearly 80% at the open. But the apparent fall was mechanical, driven by Nuvama’s 1:5 stock split (sub-division) taking effect.

British Airways faces customer leadership vacuum as Chief Customer Officer Calum Laming set to depart in March 2026

LONDON — December 26, 2025 — British Airways is heading into 2026 with a major question hanging over one of its most visible priorities: the customer experience. Multiple aviation and travel outlets reported this week that Calum Laming, British Airways’ Chief Customer Officer (CCO), is expected to leave the airline at the end of March 2026—and that no successor has been publicly named. SSBCrack News The timing is awkward. Boxing Day traditionally marks a surge in travel bookings and public attention for airlines—and British Airways has launched its annual sale window, running through late January.

In early December, Unilever completed the demerger of its ice cream business into The Magnum Ice Cream Company, then followed with a share consolidation designed to keep per‑share metrics comparable post-split.
