Newmont stock rises as gold rebounds; Raymond James lifts $111 target

Newmont stock rises as gold rebounds; Raymond James lifts $111 target

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:32 ET — Regular session Newmont Corp shares rose about 2.2% to $102.00 in midday trading on Tuesday. The gain puts the world’s largest listed gold miner back in sync with bullion after an abrupt bout of profit-taking jolted metals markets this week. The timing matters because investors are repositioning into year-end, and gold has become a crowded macro trade tied to rate expectations and geopolitical risk. Newmont fell 5.6% on Monday as precious metals sold off sharply, leaving the stock primed to swing with any bounce in gold. Barron’s Spot gold rose 0.9% to

CoreWeave stock edges higher after insider-sale filings; what CRWV investors are watching next

CoreWeave stock edges higher after insider-sale filings; what CRWV investors are watching next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:16 ET — Regular session CoreWeave (CRWV) shares inched higher on Tuesday after late Monday regulatory filings disclosed stock sales tied to a senior executive and director. The disclosures matter because CoreWeave remains a high-volume, high-volatility AI infrastructure name, and investors have been closely tracking insider selling and financing as the company scales data center capacity. Insider trades can sway sentiment in companies like CoreWeave that require heavy upfront spending, especially after the firm warned earlier this quarter that a third-party data center delay would pressure its outlook. The Nasdaq-listed shares were up about 0.5%

Merus stock halted today as Genmab buyout closes: what happens to MRUS shares and the $97 cash payout

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:14 ET — Regular session Merus N.V. shares were halted on Tuesday after Nasdaq said the final merger step in Denmark’s Genmab’s $97-a-share cash acquisition closed before the market open, leaving the stock set for suspension on Dec. 31. Merus last traded around $90 late Monday, about 7% below its prior close, according to market data. NASDAQ Trader Why it matters now: Merus said in an SEC filing that a “back-end” merger — a squeeze-out step that follows a tender offer — and a related share cancellation took effect late Monday, leaving no common shares

Lumentum stock rebounds today after Monday slide as year-end trading stays thin

Lumentum stock rebounds today after Monday slide as year-end trading stays thin

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:08 ET — Regular session Lumentum Holdings Inc (LITE.O) shares rose 1.3% to $377.59 in midday trading on Tuesday, paring part of the prior session’s slide. The stock traded between $370.00 and $380.32, with about 800,000 shares changing hands. The move comes as U.S. equities drifted in a narrow range in the final week of the year, with major index proxies little changed to lower. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) was down about 0.1%, while the Nasdaq-100 tracker Invesco QQQ was nearly flat. That backdrop matters for Lumentum because thin holiday trading can exaggerate

Why AngloGold Ashanti stock is rising today: gold rebounds as Fed minutes loom

Why AngloGold Ashanti stock is rising today: gold rebounds as Fed minutes loom

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:28 ET — Regular session AngloGold Ashanti plc shares rose 1.9% to $86.57 in late morning trading on Tuesday, as a rebound in gold helped lift mining stocks after a volatile start to the week. The move matters now because miners often trade like “leveraged” bets on bullion. When gold moves, investors quickly reprice expected cash flow because many operating costs do not move day-to-day. Tuesday’s rebound also comes with a major macro event on deck. Markets are braced for the release of Federal Reserve meeting minutes later in the session, which can shift bond

Salesforce stock today: CRM ticks up as Fed minutes loom in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:06 ET — Regular session Salesforce (NYSE:CRM) shares inched higher on Tuesday as investors positioned ahead of U.S. Federal Reserve minutes due later in the day. The stock was up about 0.2% at $266.84 in midday trading. Federal Reserve The Fed release matters now because interest-rate expectations can quickly reset valuations for growth stocks, including subscription-based software companies. Investors often use the minutes to gauge whether policymakers are leaning toward more rate cuts or a longer pause.

Canada’s 2026 TFSA limit is $7,000 as tax brackets rise: key CRA dates ahead

Canada’s 2026 TFSA limit is $7,000 as tax brackets rise: key CRA dates ahead

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:34 ET Canada’s federal income tax brackets for 2026 will rise 2% with inflation and the lowest federal rate will be 14%, Canada Revenue Agency payroll tables show. The first bracket runs to C$58,523 and the top threshold begins at C$258,482, the tables show. Canada Why it matters now: employers set January payroll withholdings in days, and households are already lining up their first-quarter cash flows and registered-account contributions. The new year also brings a fresh set of deadlines for the 2025 tax season. Missing a filing date or misreading contribution room can quickly turn

Intel (INTC) stock jumps after Nvidia closes $5 billion share purchase

Intel (INTC) stock jumps after Nvidia closes $5 billion share purchase

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:30 ET — Regular session Intel shares rose 3.8% to $38.08 in morning trade on Tuesday after the chipmaker confirmed Nvidia had completed a $5 billion stock purchase. The transaction lands as Intel looks to reinforce its finances after years of missteps and capital-intensive production expansions, with the Nvidia investment seen as a key lifeline. Reuters In a Form 8-K — a filing companies use to disclose material events between quarterly reports — Intel said it issued and sold 214,776,632 shares to Nvidia for $5.0 billion in cash, or $23.28 per share, and that the

Harmony Gold (HMY) stock rebounds in premarket as gold steadies after CME margin jolt

Harmony Gold (HMY) stock rebounds in premarket as gold steadies after CME margin jolt

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 08:30 ET — Premarket Harmony Gold Mining Company Limited’s U.S.-listed shares were up 3.4% at $20.63 in premarket trading on Tuesday, steadying after a sharp selloff in the gold complex a day earlier. Public The bounce matters because gold-linked stocks have been trading in lockstep with bullion as a late-year rally pushed precious metals to record territory. When futures exchanges raise margin — cash required to hold a contract — leveraged traders often trim positions quickly, amplifying moves across the sector. Gold rebounded on Tuesday, with spot prices up 1.3% at $4,387.29 an ounce, as

P&G stock slips as consumer staples lag — what Wall Street is watching next

NEW YORK, Dec 30, 2025, 12:04 ET — Regular session. Procter & Gamble shares fell modestly on Tuesday, trading at about $143.77, down 0.6% on the day in the middle of the U.S. session. The broader Consumer Staples sector was also lower, keeping pressure on household-products names even as investors typically lean on defensives when growth stocks wobble. For P&G specifically, there was no company announcement flagged in the latest tape that clearly explained the intraday move, leaving the stock trading in line with sector flows. That matters because staples have been trading more like rate-sensitive equities this year: when

Home Depot stock slips today as housing signals shift and Fed minutes loom

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:43 ET — Regular session Home Depot (HD.N) shares fell 0.6% to $345.48 in late morning trading on Tuesday, extending a choppy run for housing-linked retailers as investors weighed fresh housing indicators and a key Federal Reserve update due later in the day. The move matters now because Home Depot’s sales tend to track housing activity and household confidence. When mortgage rates and home turnover shift, so does demand for big-ticket projects and contractor work. Markets are also in a year-end stretch where small changes in rate expectations can swing rate-sensitive stocks. The Fed’s minutes

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 11:41 ET — Regular session Sandisk Corp shares rose 0.8% to $246.30 in late morning trade on Tuesday after dropping as much as 3.1% earlier in the session. The stock ranged from $236.64 to $246.84. The year-end tape has put Sandisk back on watchlists because it has been one of 2025’s biggest winners. Kiplinger recently ranked SanDisk as the S&P 500’s top gainer for the year, up about 594%, alongside storage and memory peers Western Digital, Micron Technology and Seagate Technology.
