HKEX stock ends 2025 slightly lower as Hong Kong IPO rush sets up 2026 catalysts

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 08:33 ET — Market closed Shares of Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd (0388.HK) slipped 0.24% to HK$407.60 on Wednesday, as investors weighed a year-end rush of Chinese IPO launches and broader China-linked risk appetite. Hong Kong markets are shut on Jan. 1 for the New Year holiday and reopen on Jan. 2. Investing For HKEX, the operator of the city’s stock exchange, activity is the product. More IPOs and higher turnover — the total value of shares traded — generally translate into higher fee income, while quieter markets tend to crimp revenue. That linkage

Euronext stock holds near €128 into New Year’s Day closure — what’s next for ENX shares

Euronext The small move leaves the pan-European exchange operator starting 2026 with investors focused on what usually drives its fee pool: market activity. More volatility typically means more trading, and exchanges tend to collect more fees when investors transact more often. That sensitivity matters in January, when flows often reset after a holiday lull. Euronext’s cash and derivatives markets are closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day across its venues, and U.S. markets

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 08:08 ET U.S. stock markets are closed on Thursday for New Year’s Day, with trading set to resume on Friday, Jan. 2. AP News The shutdown matters for investors and companies that typically rebalance portfolios and place orders around the turn of the year, only to see executions pushed to the next session. Wall Street ended 2025 with double-digit gains, even as major indexes slipped in the final session of the year in holiday-thinned trading. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity.

Icahn Enterprises (IEP) Stock Ends 2025 Up as Wall Street Shuts for New Year’s Day—What to Watch Next

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 07:57 ET — Market closed Icahn Enterprises L.P. shares rose in the last U.S. session of 2025, while Wall Street is shut on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. The partnership’s units last closed up 3.5% at $7.55. New York Stock Exchange That year-end pop matters because IEP often trades like an income vehicle, with price action shaped by flows as much as fundamentals. Thin liquidity — fewer buyers and sellers — can magnify moves, especially around holidays and quarter-ends. IEP’s gain came as the S&P 500 fell 0.74% on Wednesday in holiday-thinned trading.

PBF Energy stock jumps 4% to end 2025 as EIA fuel builds hit refiners’ radar

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 07:31 ET — Market closed PBF Energy Inc shares finished the last U.S. trading session up more than 4%, outperforming larger refiners as investors parsed new U.S. fuel inventory data into year-end. U.S. markets are closed on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. The move matters now because refiners’ earnings swing with the crack spread — the gap between crude oil costs and prices for fuels such as gasoline and diesel. That spread has been whipsawed by weekly supply-and-demand signals and shifting expectations for early-2026 consumption. Traders also had one eye on 2025’s sharp
