Freshpet stock slides as Fed minutes loom in thin year-end trade (FRPT)
NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 1:59 PM ET — Regular session Freshpet, Inc. shares were down 3.5% at $60.84 by 1:59 p.m. ET on Tuesday, extending a choppy stretch for the pet food maker’s stock. The slide stood out against an otherwise muted session, a reminder that thinner year-end liquidity can exaggerate moves in single names. The stock’s drop also comes hours before the Federal Reserve releases minutes from its December policy meeting at 2 p.m. ET — a closely watched readout that can shift rate expectations and, by extension, valuations for stocks priced on future growth. https://www.reuters.com/business/final-fed-minutes-2025-shed-light-policy-divisions-2025-12-30/ U.S. stocks
