Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM) heads into Friday’s (Dec. 26, 2025) market open with its stock trading near recent highs—but with several fast-moving headlines in the background, from Russia-related legacy assets to a potentially major Iraq deal, plus a fresh long-term growth plan that’s reshaping the company’s investment narrative.

XOM closed at $119.22 on Dec. 24 with about 6.14 million shares traded—lighter-than-normal activity that can matter when liquidity returns post-holiday.

U.S. markets reopen for a full trading session on Friday, December 26, 2025, after the Christmas Day closure—setting up a post-holiday tape where headlines can move mega-cap tech faster than usual because liquidity is often thinner.

Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) heads into the Friday, Dec. 26, 2025 U.S. market open with investors balancing two powerful forces: policy-driven price pressure on GLP‑1 drugs and pipeline-driven growth potential that keeps Lilly at the center of the obesity and diabetes mega-trend. Because Christmas Day (Dec. 25) is a market holiday and Christmas Eve (Dec. 24) was an early close, the next “real” price discovery for LLY happens when trading resumes Friday morning—often with thinner holiday-week liquidity that can exaggerate moves.

Berkshire Hathaway (BRK.B, BRK.A) Stock: What to Know Before the Market Opens on Dec. 26, 2025

Berkshire Hathaway Inc. stock heads into Friday’s post-Christmas session with a rare combination of “big picture” catalysts: a historic CEO handoff scheduled for January 1, 2026, a record cash-and-Treasury-bills war chest, and a portfolio that continues to shift away from Apple even as Berkshire initiates a new stake in Alphabet. With U.S. equities returning to a full trading day on Dec. 26 after the holiday closure, investors watching BRK.B and BRK.A are likely to focus less on short-term technical signals and more on what Berkshire’s balance sheet and leadership reshuffle say about 2026.
