NASDAQ Today (Dec. 21, 2025): Nasdaq Composite Near 23,300 Ahead of Nasdaq-100 Rebalance, Fed Signals, and Nasdaq’s 23-Hour Trading Proposal

The Nasdaq is heading into Christmas week with a familiar late-December cocktail: holiday-thin liquidity, a “Santa Claus rally” watch, and the kind of tech-led price action that can look calm in the headline… right up until it isn’t.

Reuters That rebound matters because it re-centers attention on two things Nasdaq traders obsess over in late December: seasonality and rates.
