When bond yields rise or markets turn defensive, dividend-heavy names can move fast. Global markets were on edge after Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell said the Trump administration had threatened him with a criminal indictment, raising fresh questions over central bank independence. “Trump is pulling at the loose threads of central

Clorox stock (CLX) ends week higher: what to watch on dividend, Glad shift, ERP fallout

NEW YORK, January 11, 2026, 17:20 EST — Market closed. Shares of The Clorox Company (NYSE: CLX) rose about 1.9% to $106.19 on Friday, their third straight gain, and beat smaller moves in Procter & Gamble and Colgate-Palmolive as U.S. stocks advanced. Volume was 1.9 million shares, below the stock’s 50-day average, and the close left Clorox about 35% under its 52-week high. (MarketWatch) Why it matters now: investors are still trying to gauge how quickly Clorox can steady shipments after a U.S. enterprise resource planning, or ERP, transition — software that runs ordering, inventory and billing — that disrupted

London, Jan 11, 2026, 09:45 GMT — Market closed. Experian (EXPN.L) shares climbed 2.1% on Friday, ending at 3,478 pence and outpacing gains in the FTSE 100 during a session cut short by the weekend closure of London markets. Despite the jump, the stock remains roughly 15% below its 52-week peak, with trading volume notably lighter than usual. (MarketWatch) With the market closed, fresh tape is scarce.
