New York, January 19, 2026, 11:19 EST — Market closed. AbbVie Inc shares ended Friday at $214.35, slipping $2.44, or roughly 1.1%.

Palantir stock price today: PLTR slides into a closed U.S. market, with earnings next up

New York, Jan 19, 2026, 11:00 EST — The market has closed. Palantir Technologies’ shares fell 3.4% on Friday, ending the session at $170.96. U.S. markets will be closed Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, so no trading will take place until Tuesday.

(New York Stock Exchange) Risk appetite took a hit outside the U.S., with European-listed shares of key American tech giants slipping. Markets were shaken after President

Johnson & Johnson stock price slips ahead of Jan. 21 earnings in holiday-shortened week

New York, January 19, 2026, 10:36 (EST) — Market closed Johnson & Johnson shares ended Friday down 0.4%, closing at $218.66. Investors are cautious ahead of the holiday-shortened week and the company’s earnings report due Wednesday. Timing is key. J&J stands out as one of the first major healthcare companies to lay out 2026 figures, and in a market already pricing in expectations, guidance often carries more weight than a small beat or miss. Tariff news added to the tension. While U.S. cash equity markets were closed Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, stock futures dropped after President Donald

New York, Jan 19, 2026, 10:09 EST — Market closed. Walmart (WMT.O) shares closed Friday higher by 0.42%, at $119.70. U.S. markets will be closed Monday for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, setting up the next trading test for Tuesday’s open.

Broadcom stock price: AVGO faces Tuesday test after $351 close as tariff jitters hit tech mood

(Yahoo Finance) That matters because Broadcom has turned into a proxy for the AI buildout — not just chips, but the networking and software plumbing that keeps data centers running. When macro mood sours, this stock often gets swept up with the rest of the semiconductor trade. The pause also leaves traders leaning on headlines rather than price.
