Big Tech Stocks Today: Nvidia’s Groq Licensing Deal, Apple’s China iPhone Signal, Tesla’s Safety Probe — What Investors Should Watch Before Monday

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 12:36 p.m. ET — Market closed U.S. stock markets are shut for the weekend, but Big Tech stocks are heading into the final stretch of 2025 with momentum still intact—and fresh headlines that could shape trading when the opening bell returns Monday. On Friday’s quiet, post-Christmas session, Wall Street finished only marginally lower, with major indexes slipping by fractions even as investors kept an eye on the seasonal “Santa Claus rally” window and year-end positioning. Reuters For Big Tech, the story into Monday is less about sweeping index moves and more about a handful of

Data Center Stocks Today: Nvidia’s Groq Deal, AI Power Bottlenecks, and What Investors Need Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 12:55 p.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) The U.S. stock market is closed for the weekend, but the “data center stocks” trade isn’t taking a holiday. In the final stretch of 2025, investors are still pricing a simple reality: AI growth is increasingly constrained not by software ambition, but by the physical stack—chips, servers, networking, cooling, and, most critically, electricity. Friday’s thin, post-Christmas session ended with major indexes fractionally lower but still near all-time highs, leaving markets focused on year-end positioning and the next week’s catalysts. Data center-linked names remain in the spotlight after Nvidia’s

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:59 a.m. ET — Market closed Gold is heading into the final week of 2025 near historic highs after a powerful, late-December surge across precious metals—one that has been amplified by thin holiday liquidity, expectations for U.S. interest-rate cuts in 2026, and renewed safe-haven demand tied to geopolitics. In the latest U.S. trading session on Friday, spot gold rose 1.2% to about $4,531.41 an ounce in afternoon trade after touching an all-time high of $4,549.71, according to Reuters.

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:59 a.m. ET — Market closed Global stock markets head into the weekend with risk appetite still intact—but with liquidity thin, headlines amplified, and a packed “week-ahead” narrative taking shape around U.S. rate expectations, a potential Federal Reserve leadership change in 2026, and fresh signs of uneven growth in China. With U.S. exchanges closed Saturday and most major bourses shut for the weekend, investors are using the downtime to digest Friday’s quiet finish on Wall Street and reassess positioning for the final three trading sessions of 2025—Monday through Wednesday—when volumes can be light enough to

(NYSE: PG) enters the final trading days of 2025 with its share price hovering around the mid-$140s, a level investors have been debating for weeks as Wall Street weighs year-end positioning, interest-rate expectations, and whether defensive consumer staples deserve a bigger role in 2026 portfolios. With U.S. markets closed for the weekend, the most important question for PG shareholders is less about minute-to-minute price action and more about what could move the stock when trading resumes Monday—especially with thin holiday liquidity, looming Federal Reserve signals,

NEW YORK, Dec. 27, 2025, 11:29 a.m. ET — Market Closed PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) enters the final stretch of the year with U.S. markets closed for the weekend and investors balancing two forces that often collide in late December: thinner liquidity and positioning ahead of a new year. On Friday’s abbreviated post-holiday tape, Wall Street finished nearly unchanged, snapping a short winning streak but staying close to record territory—an environment that typically rewards “defensive” consumer-staples names, even if day-to-day moves are muted. Reuters For PepsiCo stock, the setup into Monday’s reopen looks less about weekend headlines and more about

(NYSE: NOW) stock is heading into the final three trading days of 2025 with investors balancing two very different forces: a thin, holiday-driven tape that can exaggerate moves, and an unusually consequential strategic shift as the enterprise software leader pushes deeper into cybersecurity with its planned Armis acquisition. With U.S. markets closed for the weekend, NOW shareholders are looking back at a quiet Friday session that left the broader market near record levels—and looking ahead to what could be a more reactive open on Monday as Wall
