Cisco Stock (CSCO) After Hours on Dec. 24, 2025: Holiday Close, Today’s News & Forecasts, and What to Watch Before Markets Reopen

Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) wrapped up the Christmas Eve session essentially flat and then nudged modestly higher in thin after-hours trading—an unsurprising setup given that U.S. equities closed early at 1:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2025 and remain closed on Thursday, Dec. 25 for Christmas.

AI Stocks Today (Dec. 24, 2025, 5:02 p.m. ET): Nvidia’s Reported $20B Groq Deal, Snowflake M&A Talk, and Wall Street’s 2026 AI Outlook

As of 5:02 p.m. ET on Wednesday, December 24, 2025, the “AI trade” is closing out a holiday-shortened session with fresh momentum — and a new set of questions investors can’t ignore. On one hand, U.S. benchmarks pushed to new records during the early Christmas Eve close, a classic “Santa rally” setup supported by easing-rate expectations and renewed appetite for mega-cap tech and AI names. On the other hand, today’s biggest AI headlines aren’t just about chips and models anymore. They’re increasingly about dealmaking, data-center financing, capital-expenditure transparency, and regulatory pressure on how AI assistants get distributed to consumers. Reuters+1

Updated: 5:01 p.m. ET, Wednesday, December 24, 2025 Wall Street wrapped up a holiday-shortened Christmas Eve session with fresh records, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 finished at all-time closing highs and the Nasdaq added to its year-end advance. Thin trading volume and an early close shaped the day’s tone, but investors still found reasons to buy—helped by upbeat labor-market data, a rebound in AI-linked shares, and renewed debate over how far the Federal Reserve will cut rates in 2026.
