EU Stock Markets Today (24 December 2025): STOXX 600 Flat on Christmas Eve as BP Castrol Deal, Sanofi’s Dynavax Move and Record Metals Set the Tone

EU stock markets traded in a distinctly “holiday mode” on Wednesday, December 24, 2025, with liquidity thinning sharply as several exchanges either closed entirely or ran shortened sessions for Christmas Eve. The STOXX 600—a widely followed pan-European benchmark that investors often use as a proxy for the region—was flat at 588.93 by 08:09 GMT, pausing after a run of fresh highs earlier in the week. Reuters The muted headline move, however, masked a handful of themes that still mattered to investors positioning into year-end: energy shares were supported by firmer oil, miners followed another surge in precious metals, and large-cap deal news brought individual names back into focus—even in a shortened session.

Abbott Laboratories Stock After Hours (ABT): FDA Win, Holiday Trading Dynamics, and What to Watch Before the Dec. 24 Open

ABT shares closed at $124.54 (-0.53%) and in after-hours trading were last indicated around $124.20 (-0.27%) as of the evening session. Yahoo Finance With markets set for an early close on Dec. 24, and macro data arriving before the opening bell, the setup for Wednesday is less about “big volume conviction” and more about headline sensitivity, thinner liquidity, and risk management—especially for large-cap, widely held healthcare names like Abbott.

Dec. 21, 2025 — International Business Machines Corporation (NYSE: IBM) heads into a holiday-shortened week with investors balancing two competing narratives: a multi-month rerating driven by hybrid cloud and AI optimism, and a more cautious near-term setup defined by thin liquidity, macro headlines, and ongoing scrutiny of valuation. IBM shares last closed at $300.98 (Dec. 19), after swinging through a volatile mid-December range that took the stock from above $311 down toward the mid-$295s before stabilizing near the psychologically important $300 mark.
