USPS confirms July 4 shutdown, parcel investors brace for split in mail, markets

USPS confirms July 4 shutdown, parcel investors brace for split in mail, markets

Saturday’s Independence Day has led to an unusual schedule for shippers and markets in the U.S. The mail is still running Friday, but cash equity markets aren’t. For United Parcel Service and FedEx investors, this is more than a simple holiday statement. The worry is about just how much low-cost parcel volume now relies on USPS rates and last-mile work. The Postal Service said Post Offices will be closed on July 4 for Independence Day, with regular mail and retail service back on July 6. Locations and deliveries will operate normally on July 3. Big Island Now reported the same schedule for Post Offices in Hawaii on July 1.

Nasdaq bounce hides thin megacap recovery as US stocks end

Nasdaq bounce hides thin megacap recovery as US stocks end

U.S. stocks climbed Monday, but the close didn’t fully back up the day’s upbeat numbers. The Nasdaq led gains, S&P 500 rose over 1%, and the Dow crossed 52,000. Even so, there weren’t many fresh highs and breadth stayed moderate. The move seemed more about big-cap names bouncing than a real broad rally heading into the end of the quarter. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 358.34 points, or 0.69%, ending at 52,234.45, according to Reuters. The S&P 500 finished up 78.74 points, or 1.07%, at 7,432.92. The Nasdaq Composite climbed 464.42 points, or 1.84%, closing at 25,761.96.

Ondas Inc. ONDS stock rises as Russell 3000 add meets short-interest test

Ondas Inc. entered Monday with an index bid on one side and a heavy short base on the other. The stock was quoted at $8.01 in premarket trade at 7:02 a.m. EDT, up 18 cents from Friday’s $7.83 close, with 458,640 shares changing hands before the bell.

Nasdaq hours in New York run from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. EDT, and Nasdaq’s 2026 holiday calendar lists the next U.S. closure as July 3 for Independence Day, not June 29.

SpaceX stock eyes $8 billion index hurdle as shares stumble in first week after IPO

SpaceX stock eyes $8 billion index hurdle as shares stumble in first week after IPO

Space Exploration Technologies Corp., also called SpaceX, starts the week facing a new IPO test. This time it’s about if index funds can keep up demand for a $2 trillion company, where the public float is thin and capital demands remain high. U.S. cash equities are closed for the weekend. SpaceX last changed hands at $153.23, up 13.5% from its $135 IPO but still down roughly 32% from the 52-week peak at $225.64.

Hecla Mining (NYSE:HL) heads into Monday after heavy volume and silver move

Hecla Mining Company goes into Monday without U.S. market action Sunday. The stock finished Friday with a late rally, but index-related trading made the tape hard to read. Hecla finished Friday at $15.54, up 39 cents or 2.57%. Shares traded from $15.13 to $15.98 during the session. Volume hit 112.44 million, about 604% of the 65-day average. In after-hours, another 33.5 million shares traded hands and the stock ticked higher to $15.64.

CoreWeave Surges After Nasdaq-100 Move but Debt Worries Linger

CoreWeave Surges After Nasdaq-100 Move but Debt Worries Linger

CoreWeave shares rallied again Tuesday as traders weighed a possible index move and new concerns about leverage at the AI infrastructure firm. The stock last traded at $116.95, up $10.24, hitting an intraday high of $118.03 with a market cap of about $61.6 billion. The jump followed Monday’s market debate over whether investors are missing the value of CoreWeave’s customer deals or underestimating how much it will cost to fund them. Nasdaq puts CoreWeave in the Nasdaq-100, joining Astera Labs, Nebius, Rocket Lab and Teradyne before the open on June 22. The Nasdaq-100 is tracked by more than 200 products and manages over $800 billion worldwide, according to Nasdaq. “This move reflects both our growth and the emergence of AI as one of the defining technologies of our time,” CoreWeave CEO Michael Intrator said. Barchart said index additions can drive buying from ETFs and funds tracking the index.

Nasdaq Sees More Moves After Hours Following U.S. Strike on Iran

Nasdaq Sees More Moves After Hours Following U.S. Strike on Iran

Futures on major U.S. stock indexes dropped in after-hours trade Tuesday. Oil moved higher as the U.S. military launched strikes on Iran, pressing risk-off sentiment. That same tone had earlier sent the Nasdaq lower during Tuesday's cash session. Futures are contracts that track where indexes could open. Tech stocks had already dropped by the close, with investors selling growth names. A few hours later, U.S. Central Command said it carried out “self-defense strikes” at 5 p.m. Washington time. That came after President Donald Trump pledged a response to a U.S. Apache helicopter being shot down.

Wall Street on Edge as Nasdaq AI Losses Deepen Before CPI, IPOs

U.S. stocks closed mixed Tuesday. A quick bounce in tech faded, sending the Nasdaq down hard. The S&P 500 also slipped as traders pulled back from AI high-flyers and weighed new uncertainty out of the Middle East. The Dow Jones Industrial Average added 15.98 points, or 0.03%, finishing at 50,801.99. The S&P 500 slipped 39.47 points, or 0.53%, to 7,366.26. The Nasdaq Composite tumbled 314.38 points, or 1.21%, ending at 25,615.28. Tech stocks picked up Friday’s losing streak after a brief recovery on Monday, with the S&P 500 technology index down more than 4% at its low and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index most recently off 3.8%, Reuters said.

Wall Street’s Fear Gauge Flashes An Odd Signal As Stocks Hit Records

Wall Street’s Fear Gauge Flashes An Odd Signal As Stocks Hit Records

Wall Street’s so-called fear gauge just slipped under 20 again, yet traders aren’t seeing the classic green light that usually comes when equities notch fresh highs. The Cboe had the VIX spot at 18.02 as of Monday, down 3.69%. The index, according to Cboe, tracks anticipated short-term swings based on S&P 500 options. The timing hits just as a jam-packed market week kicks off. S&P 500 and Nasdaq notched new record closes Monday, undeterred by looming megacap earnings, a slate of U.S. growth and inflation numbers, the Federal Reserve’s rate call, and new developments out of the Middle East.

Stock Market Closed on Good Friday 2026? NYSE, Nasdaq Shut as Jobs Report Lands

Stock Market Closed on Good Friday 2026? NYSE, Nasdaq Shut as Jobs Report Lands

U.S. equities will go dark Friday, April 3, for Good Friday. The New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq are both scheduled to halt trading after Thursday’s normal close, according to their published 2026 calendars. Markets are slated to resume regular hours on Monday, April 6. Timing is key here. The Labor Department’s March jobs report lands Friday at 8:30 a.m. ET, but equity traders are left without a normal session to respond. This follows a Thursday when Wall Street futures slipped and oil prices rose, after President Donald Trump made fresh remarks about Iran.

Bitcoin Price This Week: BTC Holds Near $70,000 After Fed, Oil Shock and ETF Outflows

Bitcoin Price This Week: BTC Holds Near $70,000 After Fed, Oil Shock and ETF Outflows

Bitcoin hovered close to $70,400 on Saturday, holding steady after a sharp pullback late in the week erased gains that had pushed it up toward $75,000. The token was recently quoted at $70,419, having dipped under $70,000 on Thursday and reaching as high as $74,300 earlier this week. This week, bitcoin moved more like a rates-sensitive play than any kind of haven from global turmoil. IG Group’s Chris Beauchamp floated the idea of a “haven niche” early on, but by Friday, oil prices were rallying, bond yields had spiked, and spot bitcoin ETFs trading in the U.S. were seeing renewed outflows.

XRP Price Today: Why Ripple’s Token Is Stuck Near $1.43 Despite the SEC’s Commodity Call

XRP Price Today: Why Ripple’s Token Is Stuck Near $1.43 Despite the SEC’s Commodity Call

As of 11:48 a.m. EDT on Friday, XRP was trading at $1.44 according to CoinDesk. Over on CoinGecko, the token hovered around $1.43, off roughly 1.3% over the last 24 hours, with a market cap of about $87.5 billion. Ripple’s token remained below the $1.52 mark from March 17, though it was still showing a 2.4% gain over the week. This matters right now: U.S. regulators just put XRP squarely in the “digital commodity” camp this week—a designation the SEC reserves for tokens whose price stems from active crypto networks and basic supply-demand, not business rights. For XRP and Ripple, after years tangled in legal battles, that’s about as clear a signal as U.S. regulators have sent so far.

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard’s BVNK Deal Puts Trade Finance Tokenization – and Solana – in Focus

Mastercard has struck a deal to acquire BVNK for as much as $1.8 billion, intensifying the race among heavyweight financial firms looking to embed blockchain into everyday payments and trade finance. Unveiled Tuesday, the agreement hands the card giant a stronger position in stablecoin infrastructure—digital tokens tied to currencies like the dollar—across remittances, business transactions, and payouts. The timing matters because a string of recent experiments is starting to converge. Just last week, Aon reported what it says is the first stablecoin insurance-premium payment handled by a major broker—settling with USDC on Ethereum and PayPal USD over Solana. Earlier, in a February report, Citi detailed its own internal proof of concept with PwC and Solana, converting a bill of exchange into a token and running it through a full simulated issuance-to-settlement workflow.

Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq Partners With Kraken on Tokenized Stocks, Eyes 2027 Launch

Nasdaq announced Monday it's developing a new system for tokenized shares—those built on blockchain technology—and has enlisted Payward, the company behind crypto exchange Kraken, to help create the link between established stock markets and blockchain platforms. This is significant at this moment, with a top U.S. exchange stepping further into tokenized equities only days after banking regulators decided lenders won’t face additional capital requirements for blockchain-based securities. SEC staff, back in January, stated that tokenized shares may be handled as traditional ones provided holders retain essentially the same rights and privileges.

Nasdaq’s ‘Fast Entry’ Nasdaq-100 Rule Could Rush SpaceX-Scale IPOs Into the Index

Nasdaq’s ‘Fast Entry’ Nasdaq-100 Rule Could Rush SpaceX-Scale IPOs Into the Index

Nasdaq has put forward a “Fast Entry” rule aimed at letting certain new heavyweights join the Nasdaq-100 in just 15 trading days, cutting down the current wait that stretches for months. Timing is crucial. A surge of major IPOs, like Elon Musk’s SpaceX and AI firm Anthropic, is gearing up for 2026. Funds tied to indexes might have to hold back or shell out more once these new entrants join the lineup.

Wall Street is shut for MLK Day — the 2026 U.S. market holiday calendar and the crypto ETF catch

Wall Street is shut for MLK Day — the 2026 U.S. market holiday calendar and the crypto ETF catch

U.S. stock markets, including the New York Stock Exchange and Nasdaq, will be closed Monday in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Trading picks back up Tuesday. The next full-market closure won’t be until Presidents Day on Feb. 16, 2026. The timing is crucial since the U.S. operates on a T+1 settlement cycle—meaning trades settle one business day after the trade date—for most stocks and ETFs. With Monday a holiday, trades executed late last week won’t settle until Tuesday, delaying the cash and share exchange by a full day.

S&P 500 Nears 7,000 as Santa Claus Rally Window Opens: Dow and Nasdaq Cap Strong 2025 With Fed Minutes Ahead

U.S. stocks headed into the final stretch of 2025 clinging to record territory—an unusually calm setup for a week that’s famous for thin trading, year-end portfolio adjustments, and a seasonal pattern investors watch closely: the “Santa Claus rally.” On Friday, December 26, Wall Street finished essentially flat after a multi-session climb, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average closing at 48,710.97, the S&P 500 at 6,929.94, and the Nasdaq Composite at 23,593.10. The moves were tiny—down fractions of a percent—but the bigger story was the calendar: the market is now inside the Santa Claus rally window and just about 1% away from the psychological 7,000 milestone on the S&P 500.
