Keppel Ltd stock (SGX:BN4) is ending 2025 with a very specific kind of momentum: the kind built from steady share buybacks, repeatable asset monetisation, and a strategy that markets increasingly read as “asset-light, recurring-income, value-unlocking Keppel” rather than the legacy conglomerate of years past. Keppel+1 As of Dec 23, 2025 (Singapore time), Keppel’s share price was S$10.30, up 0.98% on the day (as at 14:08), after closing S$10.20 on Dec 22.

SINGAPORE — December 23, 2025. Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC), Singapore’s second-largest bank by assets, is ending 2025 with its stock hovering just below a fresh all-time high, as investors focus on dividends, capital returns and the bank’s fast-growing wealth franchise—while also keeping an eye on margin pressures in a cooling rate environment.

Bank of America Stock (NYSE: BAC) Today: Latest News, Analyst Price Targets, and 2026 Outlook (Dec. 22, 2025)

Bank of America Corporation (NYSE: BAC) opened the holiday-shortened week with its stock pushing near fresh highs, as investors weighed a year-end “Santa rally” in equities against a packed calendar of late-week U.S. economic releases. In intraday trading on Monday, Dec. 22, BAC hovered around $56 per share, putting it close to its 52-week high zone and extending a strong late-2025 run for U.S. money-center banks. Investing.com+1 At the same time, Bank of America itself delivered a headline that is resonating beyond Wall Street: the company announced $10 million in zero‑interest lending to support Los Angeles-area residents and small businesses

Citigroup Stock Hits a Fresh 52-Week High as Regulators Ease Oversight and Wall Street Updates 2026 Outlook

Dec. 22, 2025 — Citigroup Inc. (NYSE: C) is ending the year with momentum. In Monday trading, Citigroup stock pushed to a new 52‑week high and traded around $118, extending a powerful 2025 rally that has been driven by a mix of turnaround execution, capital return, and—most recently—regulatory overhang starting to lift. Investing.com+1 For investors trying to separate signal from noise, today’s Citi story is less about a single headline and more about a cluster of developments that collectively support the “simplification + risk-control repair + returns” thesis CEO Jane Fraser has been selling for years—now with outside validation from

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (SGX: BS6) Stock: Latest Price, News, Analyst Forecasts and 2026 Outlook (Dec 22, 2025)

Yangzijiang Shipbuilding (Holdings) Ltd (SGX: BS6) started the week on the front foot, rebounding after a late-week pullback and putting the spotlight back on the group’s massive order book, “green vessel” mix, and a debate that refuses to die: is the stock still cheap for what it’s building—and when it’s delivering? As of Dec 22, 2025 (14:39 SGT), BS6 traded at S$3.45, up S$0.08 (+2.37%), with ~6.49 million shares traded and an intraday range of S$3.39 to S$3.45.

Healthcare Stocks Outlook (Dec. 21, 2025): Drug-Price Deals, ACA Premium Shock, and 2026 Catalysts Investors Are Watching

Sunday, December 21, 2025 — With U.S. markets heading into a holiday-shortened final trading stretch, healthcare stocks are back in focus as investors weigh a year-end “Santa rally” against a fast-moving policy backdrop that is unusually direct for the sector: drugmakers cutting prices through White House deals, insurers staring down a subsidy cliff tied to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), and a new wave of biotech dealmaking and capital-markets activity that is reopening risk appetite. Reuters+4Reuters+4The Washington Post+4 Below is a comprehensive roundup of the key healthcare stock news, forecasts, and sector analyses circulating on December 21, 2025, along with

CoreWeave Stock (NASDAQ: CRWV): Latest News, Analyst Forecasts, and 2026 Outlook as of December 21, 2025

CoreWeave, Inc. (NASDAQ: CRWV) has become one of the most watched—and most debated—AI infrastructure stocks of 2025. As of December 21, 2025 (a Sunday, with U.S. markets closed), CoreWeave shares are sitting near $83, after a sharp late-week rebound that followed weeks of volatility and “AI bubble” hand-wringing across Wall Street. The timing matters: the stock’s latest surge didn’t come from a single earnings print. Instead, it arrived at the intersection of (1) new/renewed bullish coverage from Wall Street, (2) fresh credibility signals from government and NVIDIA, and (3) investor anxiety about leverage, customer concentration, and data-center execution risk—the “boring”

Lam Research Stock Week Ahead (LRCX): Analysts Lift Targets as AI Chip Spending Outlook Brightens Into a Holiday-Shortened Market

Week ahead: Dec. 22–26, 2025 (report written Dec. 21, 2025) Lam Research Corporation (NASDAQ: LRCX) is heading into the Christmas week on a surge of optimism that has pushed the semiconductor equipment maker to fresh highs—powered by bullish analyst notes, strong AI-driven demand signals from the chip ecosystem, and improving expectations for 2026 capital spending. The catch for traders: next week’s calendar is short and liquidity can be thin, which can magnify both breakouts and pullbacks. Below is a detailed, news-driven look at what’s moving Lam Research stock right now—and what matters most in the coming week. Where Lam Research

Amazon Stock AMZN Week Ahead Outlook for Dec 22–26 2025: OpenAI Talks, AWS AI Chip Momentum, and a Holiday-Shortened Market

Amazon.com Inc. enters the week of December 22–26, 2025 with investors balancing two forces that often collide at year-end: a thinly traded holiday market and an unusually dense stream of AI-driven headlines that keep Amazon stock (NASDAQ: AMZN) in focus. Shares last traded around the $227 area heading into Sunday, after finishing Friday, December 19 at $227.35. StockAnalysis That puts AMZN in a familiar late-2025 range—close enough to recent highs to keep bulls engaged, but still far enough from the year’s peak to leave room for “catch-up” narratives into 2026. This week-ahead report (dated 21.12.2025) breaks down what matters most
Software and Platform Stocks Week Ahead: AI Spending Scrutiny, Cloud Security Mega-Deals, and Holiday-Shortened Trading (Dec. 22–26, 2025)

Software and Platform Stocks Week Ahead: AI Spending Scrutiny, Cloud Security Mega-Deals, and Holiday-Shortened Trading (Dec. 22–26, 2025)

Dec. 21, 2025 — Software and platform stocks head into the Christmas week balancing two powerful forces: a thinner, holiday-shortened market that can amplify price swings, and a still-evolving narrative around the AI buildout—specifically, when massive infrastructure spending turns into measurable profits. By Friday’s close, investors were once again talking about a potential “Santa Claus rally,” but the setup feels different than in a typical year. The sector’s winners are increasingly defined by platform leverage (cloud ecosystems, cybersecurity suites, and data/AI tooling) rather than simple “growth at any price.” At the same time, several high-growth SaaS names face tougher comparisons

Cybersecurity Stocks Week Ahead: Palo Alto Networks, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Zscaler and Okta in Focus (Dec. 22–26, 2025)

The final full stretch of 2025 trading arrives with a familiar contradiction: holiday-shortened markets, but no shortage of cybersecurity catalysts. With U.S. stock markets scheduled to close early on Wednesday, Dec. 24 (1:00 p.m. ET) and remain closed on Thursday, Dec. 25, liquidity is expected to thin out—often amplifying single-headline moves in high-momentum groups like cybersecurity.

New York, Feb 7, 2026, 05:50 EST — Market closed. Exxon Mobil shares ended Friday up 2.03% at $149.05, notching a fresh 52-week high as energy stocks tracked a broad U.S. equity rally into the weekend.
