Infosys Stock (INFY) on December 21, 2025: NYSE “Mystery Spike,” Buyback Wrap-Up, and Fresh Analyst Targets Ahead of Q3 Results

Infosys Limited (NSE: INFY, BSE: 500209, NYSE: INFY) is ending the week in an unusual spotlight: its U.S.-traded ADRs briefly rocketed to near $30 before volatility halts, while the India-listed shares moved far more calmly—an eye-catching divergence that has sparked a wave of explanations, from data-feed glitches to short-squeeze mechanics. Infosys+1 As of the latest available U.S. session data (markets are closed Sunday), Infosys’ ADR last traded around $20.22, after an exceptionally wide intraday range (roughly $18.45 to $29.97) and outsized volume of ~118.7 million shares—numbers that are wildly abnormal for what is typically a lower-volatility large-cap IT services name.

Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR) Stock News, Buyback Details, and Analyst Forecasts as of Dec. 19, 2025

Rolls-Royce Holdings plc shares are ending 2025 with the kind of momentum that makes both optimists and skeptics feel uncomfortably awake. The FTSE 100 aerospace-and-defence heavyweight has been riding a powerful mix of improving fundamentals, defence-driven orders, and shareholder returns—while also facing the classic “too far, too fast?” valuation debate. In the latest market action, Rolls-Royce stock rose 3.81% to £11.44 on Thursday, Dec. 18, outperforming the broader session and sitting about 4.35% below its 52‑week high of £11.96 (Sept. 29), according to MarketWatch data.

London — December 18, 2025 — Rolls-Royce Holdings plc shares have spent much of 2025 doing what jet engines do best: generating thrust. The stock’s big re-rating has put it back on the everyday investor radar, but the story in late December isn’t just “up a lot.” It’s why it’s up, what management is doing with the cash, and which parts of the business could keep surprising (or disappoint) as the company heads into full-year results season. As of December 18, Rolls-Royce (LSE: RR.) was trading around 1,102p, within a 1,101p–1,129.5p day range, and inside a 52-week range of 557p–1,195p,

British American Tobacco (BATS.L / BTI) Stock: Today’s Buyback Update, Dividend Dates, and 2026 Outlook (Dec. 17, 2025)

British American Tobacco (BATS.L / BTI) Stock: Today’s Buyback Update, Dividend Dates, and 2026 Outlook (Dec. 17, 2025)

British American Tobacco p.l.c. (BAT) entered mid-December with its share price near multi-year highs, and the news flow on Wednesday, December 17, 2025 is very “capital allocation meets governance”: the company disclosed another daily share repurchase under its ongoing buyback programme and filed a director declaration under UK listing rules. Meanwhile, investors are still digesting BAT’s early-December FY2025 pre-close trading update, where management reaffirmed its medium-term growth algorithm but signaled that 2026 performance is likely to land at the lower end of its target range—largely because the U.S. vaping market remains distorted by illicit competition and uneven enforcement.
