As U.S. markets closed for the weekend on Saturday, Dec. 20, 2025, PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) stock was coming off a Friday close near $148 and a year that has been more “steady consumer-staples grind” than breakout rally.

Below is a detailed, investor-focused breakdown of the most current news, forecasts, and analyses investors were watching around

lululemon athletica inc. (NASDAQ: LULU) is closing out the week of Dec. 20, 2025 with a rare combination of catalysts that can move a stock fast: a CEO exit and succession search, better-than-expected quarterly results, an expanded buyback authorization, and a reported $1+ billion activist stake from Elliott Investment Management. The headlines helped reignite trading interest in LULU stock—but they also underscored why the shares have struggled through 2025: slowing momentum in the Americas, margin pressure tied to promotions and costs, and intensifying competition in athleisure.

ServiceNow, Inc. (NYSE: NOW) heads into the weekend with investors still digesting one of the most turbulent stretches the enterprise software leader has seen this year: a fresh stock split, a confirmed AI acquisition closing, and intense market debate over whether a rumored $7 billion cybersecurity deal would be a smart strategic leap—or an expensive distraction.

Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: LW) is back in the market’s spotlight this weekend—and not because investors suddenly stopped liking French fries. After reporting second-quarter fiscal 2026 results that beat Wall Street expectations on revenue and adjusted earnings, Lamb Weston shares still fell sharply as investors zeroed in on what management said comes next: continued discounting, unfavorable price/mix, and higher international manufacturing costs that could keep profitability under pressure into the back half of the year.

Rio Tinto (RIO.L, NYSE: RIO) Stock: Latest News, Forecasts, and Analyst Outlook as of Dec. 20, 2025

December 20, 2025 — Rio Tinto plc stock heads into the weekend with a lot of narrative gravity: a new CEO’s strategy reboot, fresh spending on long-life iron ore supply, an Australian government move to protect a key aluminium asset, and a legal overhang tied to sanctions-era fallout.
