Dow slips as Nvidia, Goldman drag blue chips in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 13:54 ET — Regular session The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell on Monday as year-end trading turned cautious and several high-priced blue chips slid. Investing.com+1 The pullback matters now because U.S. stocks are heading into the last stretch of 2025 near record levels, when thin holiday volumes can exaggerate moves. Reuters Some investors are watching for a “Santa Claus rally,” a seasonal pattern in which the S&P 500 often rises in the last five trading days of the year and the first two of January, according to the Stock Trader’s Almanac.

Why Goldman Sachs stock is weighing on the Dow in 2025’s final week

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 11:41 ET — Regular session Goldman Sachs shares slid on Monday, underperforming most big U.S. lenders and weighing on the Dow as year-end trading stayed choppy. The stock was down 1.1% at $896.74 in late-morning trade. The move mattered because markets are entering the final three sessions of the year with liquidity thin and investors quick to lock in gains or manage taxes. Wall Street’s main indexes eased from recent highs as technology and materials stocks retreated, Reuters reported. Reuters For banks, the rate outlook is back in focus. U.S. Treasury yields edged lower as

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:19 p.m. ET — Market closed With U.S. stock exchanges shut for the weekend, investors are heading into the final three trading sessions of 2025 watching one big question: does the year-end bid extend into the “Santa Claus rally” window—or does thin holiday liquidity turn routine headlines into outsized moves for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)? The Dow ended the last regular session essentially flat, slipping 20.19 points (‑0.04%) to 48,710.97 on Friday, while the S&P 500 eased 0.03% to 6,929.94 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.09% to 23,593.10, according to Reuters.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 12:01 p.m. ET — Market closed The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is heading into the final stretch of 2025 perched just off record territory after a muted, low-volume return from the Christmas holiday. With U.S. stock markets closed for the weekend, investors are shifting attention to the last three trading days of the year—when thin liquidity, year-end portfolio adjustments, and a pivotal Federal Reserve readout could set the tone for the first week of 2026.

Dow Jones Today: DJIA Slips After Christmas, Holds Near Record Territory — What Wall Street Is Watching Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK (as of 5:02 p.m. ET, Friday, Dec. 26, 2025) — U.S. markets are closed for the day, with the New York Stock Exchange’s core trading session running from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET. New York Stock Exchange The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) finished Friday’s post-Christmas session down 20.19 points (‑0.04%) at 48,710.97, barely changed but still hovering close to all-time highs after a strong year-end run.

Dow Jones Today (26.12.2025): DJIA Hovers Near 48,700 in Thin Post‑Christmas Trading as Fed-Cut Bets Stay in Focus

NEW YORK — 26.12.2025 (10:14 a.m. EST) — The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) was little changed in late-morning trade Friday as U.S. equities digested a quiet, low-volume “bridge” session following the Christmas holiday. Around 10:14 a.m. EST, the Dow traded near 48,698, down about 0.1%, after opening close to 48,712 and staying within a narrow early range. Investing The muted action isn’t surprising for the day-after-Christmas session, when many institutional desks remain lightly staffed and liquidity can be thin. Still, the Dow’s ability to hold near record territory keeps attention on the late-December Santa Claus rally window and on

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.

US Stock Market Open Dec. 26, 2025: Dow and S&P 500 at Record Highs, Fed-Cut Bets, and Nvidia’s Groq Deal in Focus

Wall Street reopens on Friday, December 26, 2025, after the market shut for Christmas Day and capped a holiday-shortened week with fresh record closes. The setup heading into the post-Christmas session is unusually “clean”: no big earnings slate, a light U.S. macro calendar, and a market that has been climbing on easing-rate expectations and a renewed bid for AI-linked mega-caps—all in thin liquidity that can magnify moves in either direction. Reuters Below is what investors should know before the opening bell, including the biggest headlines from the last several days, key forecasts/themes strategists are watching, and the calendar items that

NEW YORK — December 25, 2025. Wall Street is closed for Christmas Day, but the story investors are taking into the holiday is anything but quiet: U.S. stocks left off at fresh records, the “Santa Claus rally” window has begun, and strategists are already sketching a 2026 roadmap built around three swing factors—artificial intelligence investment, corporate profit growth, and the Federal Reserve’s next moves on rates. New York Stock Exchange The timing matters. With trading paused, markets are in “reflection mode”—digesting where prices ended the final full session before year-end positioning accelerates and before the calendar flips into a U.S.
