Gold price near $4,500 keeps GLD in focus as CPI week begins

New York, January 11, 2026, 12:16 EST — Market closed. SPDR Gold Shares (GLD), the gold-backed ETF, closed Friday at $414.47, gaining 0.7% after hitting an intraday peak of $415.29. (Investing.com) U.S. markets were closed on Sunday, leaving gold-linked stocks hovering near record highs as the week begins. The next big shift will probably hinge on macroeconomic factors rather than miners’ production levels. Gold has acted as a barometer for rates and risk. Sharp moves are common when investors flip between betting on “Fed cuts” and “Fed on hold.” Spot gold climbed 0.5% to $4,496.09 an ounce Friday afternoon, set

Dow Jones hits record close — CPI and big-bank earnings are next

NEW YORK, January 11, 2026, 12:07 PM (EST) — Market closed The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended Friday at a record 49,504.07, climbing 237.96 points. U.S. hiring slowed, but not enough to derail bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts this year. “Payrolls were a little bit light relative to consensus, but still fairly strong numbers,” said Tim Ghriskey, senior portfolio strategist at Ingalls & Snyder. (Reuters) As the cash market rests over the weekend, investors face two key hurdles come Monday: inflation figures and the kickoff of fourth-quarter earnings, anchored by the major banks. The Dow kicked off 2026 with

Rigetti stock slips after 108-qubit quantum system delay — what to watch before Monday

New York, January 11, 2026, 12:09 EST — The market has closed. Rigetti Computing (RGTI) shares dropped 2.1% Friday following an update on the timeline for its upcoming 108-qubit system. The quantum-computing company’s news served as a fresh example of how quickly smaller, milestone-focused tech stocks can react to shifts in their roadmaps. The stock closed at $24.72. (StockAnalysis) This update matters because investors have pegged hardware progress as the key metric in the sector. Any delay in the next system, even by a few weeks, can throw off expectations about when customers will actually start using the machine for

P&G stock: 3 things to watch before Monday’s open

P&G stock: 3 things to watch before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 11:34 EST — Market closed Procter & Gamble (PG) shares ended Friday roughly 0.2% higher, closing at $141.87. The modest gain kept the consumer-staples giant essentially flat heading into the weekend. This is crucial now since the next market move will probably hinge on interest rates. Even a slight change in inflation expectations can nudge Treasury yields and shake up “defensive” stocks — the reliable earners investors turn to when growth feels uncertain. P&G occupies a central spot in that dynamic. The company sells everyday essentials, and its earnings often influence investor views on pricing

Home Depot stock jumps as mortgage-rate plan jolts housing trade ahead of CPI week

NEW YORK, January 11, 2026, 11:24 (ET) — Market closed Home Depot (HD) shares rose 4.2% on Friday, January 9, to close at $374.64, finishing the week on a sharp upswing ahead of Monday’s open. The move came as housing-linked stocks rallied after President Donald Trump ordered $200 billion of mortgage-backed securities purchases — bonds backed by pools of home loans — in a bid to bring down housing costs. Brian Jacobsen, chief economic strategist at Annex Wealth Management, told Reuters “every little bit will help push mortgage yields lower,” but he added the policy could also fuel demand and

Micron stock jumps on fresh $390 target — what to know before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 11:13 AM EST — Market closed Micron Technology (MU.O) jumped 5.5%, closing Friday at $345.09 following a price target boost from Mizuho. The iShares Semiconductor ETF also climbed 2.9%, highlighting widespread gains ahead of the weekend. (TipRanks) This shift is significant since Micron is now a key barometer for data-center demand and memory prices. Friday’s surge tightens the margin for any letdown when upcoming reports arrive. With U.S. markets closed Sunday, Monday’s open will reveal if buyers continue pushing or start cashing out. Micron stands as one of the rare suppliers of high-bandwidth memory, or

Mastercard stock heads into CPI week after ex-dividend drop — what to watch next

New York, January 11, 2026, 10:41 EST — Market closed. Mastercard Incorporated shares slipped 0.8% Friday to $575.63, retreating ahead of a packed week of U.S. economic data and earnings reports. The payments firm has tracked alongside other “quality growth” stocks, making it vulnerable to shifts in rate-cut expectations. (MarketBeat) Here’s why it matters now: Mastercard’s fees move with card spending and international travel, making the company a real-time gauge of consumer activity. When inflation jumps unexpectedly, bond yields can spike, pushing markets to quickly revalue high-multiple payment networks. Friday’s action coincided with a dividend-related technical.

AMD stock slid Friday as chip index hit record — what to watch before Monday’s open

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 10:26 (EST) — Market closed. Advanced Micro Devices (AMD.O) shares slipped 0.7%, ending Friday at $203.17, falling behind a late-week uptick in the semiconductor sector. With U.S. markets closed Sunday, all eyes turn to Monday’s open for the next move. (Yahoo Finance) The Philadelphia Semiconductor Index (.SOX), a key barometer for chipmakers, surged 2.7% to a record high on Friday, driven by Broadcom and Intel’s nearly 11% jump. Intel gained steam after President Donald Trump described his meeting with CEO Lip-Bu Tan as “great,” while the Supreme Court held off on ruling about the legality

ASML stock jumps 7% into the weekend as analysts bet on a 2026 EUV upcycle

Amsterdam, Jan 11, 2026, 16:46 CET — Markets have closed. ASML Holding’s U.S.-listed shares jumped 6.7% to close at $1,273.88 in the latest session. The boost came on renewed analyst enthusiasm, linking the Dutch chip-equipment giant’s 2026 outlook to AI-driven demand and a recovery in memory spending. (Investing.com) This matters because ASML controls a critical bottleneck in advanced chip manufacturing. If major chipmakers continue ramping up AI-related capacity, ASML’s lithography equipment could score a fresh wave of orders—even as investors argue over whether 2026 will bring a “pause” or more growth. The company has promised to share more on its

The stock heads into Monday’s session under pressure after a volatile week for major pharmaceutical firms.

Amazon added that eligible customers with commercial insurance might pay as little as $25 for a single month’s supply. The timing is key as the

Berkshire Hathaway stock slips into Monday: BRK.B holders brace for CPI and bank earnings

New York, Jan 11, 2026, 10:06 EST — Market closed Berkshire Hathaway’s Class B shares (BRK.B) slipped 0.13% to finish Friday at $499.10, starting the week on a weaker footing after U.S. stocks hit new highs. Class A shares (BRK.A) also dipped, closing near $748,060, down roughly 0.1%.
