Gasoline prices wobble: UGA gasoline ETF dips after EIA flags big U.S. inventory build

Gasoline prices wobble: UGA gasoline ETF dips after EIA flags big U.S. inventory build

New York, Jan 15, 2026, 07:12 EST — Premarket The United States Gasoline Fund (UGA) closed down 1.7% on Wednesday at $64.63 and was indicated around that level in early premarket trade, as wholesale gasoline prices slid again after a sharp U.S. inventory build. (Investing.com) Gasoline trades carry extra weight right now because pump prices feed quickly into household budgets and inflation measures, and can change the tone for consumer and rate-sensitive bets. Moves in wholesale gasoline can filter into retail prices with a lag, but markets react first. The latest inventory numbers also hit at an awkward time for

Dow Jones ETF DIA slips as big-bank earnings and fresh inflation data keep Wall Street cautious

New York, January 14, 2026, 10:03 EST — Regular session The SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (DIA) dipped $1.10, roughly 0.2%, to $490.84 during Wednesday’s morning session, following a retreat in the Dow Jones Industrial Average. Other U.S. equity benchmarks also fell, with SPY shedding about 0.5% and QQQ dropping close to 1.0%.

Gold price breaks $4,600 record; GLD ETF and gold stocks jump on Powell probe

Gold price breaks $4,600 record; GLD ETF and gold stocks jump on Powell probe

New York, Jan 12, 2026, 12:35 (EST) — Regular session SPDR Gold Shares climbed 2.4% on Monday, buoyed by gold prices soaring past $4,600 an ounce—a new record. That jump sparked renewed interest in gold-backed assets. The ETF, which mirrors bullion and trades like a stock, last changed hands at $424.45. (Financial Times) This move matters because it’s no longer just about commodities. It’s about rates and politics. Gold usually gains traction when investors question the direction of interest rates and the steadiness of policy. Spot gold climbed 2.5% to $4,620.56 an ounce in late morning trading, after hitting a

XRP price drifts near $2 as crypto fund outflows grow and ETF filings shift the backdrop

NEW YORK, Jan 12, 2026, 11:07 AM EST — Regular session XRP slipped about 0.5% on Monday, settling near $2.09. The token remains trapped in a tight range, leaving both bulls and bears frustrated. (CoinMarketCap) This shift is significant because inflows into listed crypto products now serve as a sharp gauge of risk appetite, particularly early in the year when portfolios adjust and liquidity tightens. XRP, in particular, has attracted a rising number of U.S.-listed funds, heightening its sensitivity to news that would have barely registered a year ago. The move comes as markets continue to adjust to shifting interest-rate

Dow Jones ETF drops as Trump’s credit-card cap plan and Fed subpoena fight hit banks

NEW YORK, Jan 12, 2026, 10:26 EST — Regular session The SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust (DIA) dropped roughly 0.5% Monday morning, mirroring a pullback in blue-chip shares. The market weighed fresh political pressure on the Federal Reserve alongside the White House’s move to limit credit-card interest rates. (Reuters) That’s significant for the Dow since it’s price-weighted, so stocks with higher prices have a bigger impact on the index’s movement. MarketWatch calculated that early declines in American Express and Visa alone shaved roughly 155 points off the Dow’s drop. (MarketWatch) Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in a video
