Walmart stock slips as exec lines up share sale while Nasdaq-100 entry nears

New York, January 14, 2026, 16:45 EST — After-hours Walmart Inc. (WMT) shares slipped on Wednesday and were little changed after the bell after a regulatory filing showed a senior executive planned to sell stock. The retailer ended down about 0.3% at $120.04, after trading between $119.05 and $121.22. The timing matters because Walmart is sitting near recent highs and is days away from a major index change that can pull in forced buying. Traders have been treating the stock like a defensive haven in choppy tape, and also a “tech-ish” retail play, which makes even routine insider paperwork worth

SGX shares set for Monday spotlight as Nasdaq dual-listing rule push heads for Feb 8 deadline

Singapore, January 12, 2026, 07:55 SGT — Premarket update Shares of Singapore Exchange Ltd are under the spotlight ahead of Monday’s open as Singapore’s central bank and SGX Regulation take steps to ease dual listings with Nasdaq.

Singapore, Jan 11, 2026, 15:20 SGT — Market closed Singapore Exchange Ltd (SGXL.SI) shares closed up 1.2% on Friday at S$17.51, as new consultations tied to a planned Nasdaq dual-listing route kept the exchange operator in focus.
