Stock Market Today

  • Celsius stock rebounds in 2025; outlook for 2026 hinges on organic momentum and Alani Nu deal
    January 18, 2026, 4:41 AM EST. An investor who predicted Celsius Holdings' rebound in 2025 argues the rally could persist into 2026. Celsius shares rose about 74% in 2025, vs. the S&P 500's 16% gain. The 2024 decline of roughly 52% is framed as a temporary issue: Q3 2024 revenue fell 31% year over year amid distributor inventory with PepsiCo. The view that consumer demand remained intact underpinned a later rebound. Through the first three quarters of 2025, the company reported strong top-line growth; market share was rising and distribution expanding. In April the firm closed the large acquisition of Alani Nu for $1.65 billion, a reminder that organic growth will be complemented by acquisitions. In the 13 weeks to Sept. 28, brand retail sales grew 13% YoY. The author also took on more shares on Jan. 17, 2025, betting on continued momentum.
