Via Transportation stock tumbles 6% to start 2026 as yields rise and data week looms
NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 20:53 ET — Market closed Via Transportation, Inc. (NYSE: VIA) shares fell 6.3% on Friday to close at $27.18, after trading as low as $27.17, market data showed. The drop stands out because Via is a recent IPO and trades like a growth stock — a category that can swing sharply when investors reprice interest-rate expectations. That timing matters with markets heading into the first full week of 2026 and a heavy U.S. data calendar that could reset the outlook for Federal Reserve policy, starting with the monthly jobs report on Jan. 9.
