Linde stock today: LIN ends Friday up at $429 as yields rise; earnings and key levels ahead

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 3:53 PM ET — Market closed Linde plc shares rose 0.6% to $429.11 at Friday’s close, after trading between $422.34 and $430.73. The industrial gases supplier — a major source of oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen for factories and hospitals — is often treated as a read-through on industrial activity. Reuters That matters now because investors are resetting positions for 2026 with interest rates and growth expectations back in focus, and economically sensitive names are again being used as proxies for the cycle.

Basic materials stocks jump to start 2026 — XLB rises as copper steadies and miners climb

NEW YORK, Jan 3, 2026, 1:42 PM ET — Market closed U.S. basic materials stocks ended the first session of 2026 higher, lifting the Materials Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLB) — an exchange-traded fund that tracks a basket of large U.S. materials companies — 1.7% to $46.12 at Friday’s close. MarketWatch The basic materials group spans miners, chemical makers and building-material producers, leaving it especially sensitive to swings in metals prices and shifts in the economic outlook. With markets reopening after the holiday lull, investors are using early-January trading to recalibrate exposure to cyclical sectors tied to growth. Yahoo Finance

NEW YORK, January 2, 2026, 14:43 ET — Regular session Linde Plc shares rose 0.7% to $429.50 by early afternoon in New York on Friday, after trading between $422.34 and $429.50. The Nasdaq-listed industrial gases supplier opened at $426.28, with about 949,000 shares changing hands. The move matters now because traders are resetting positions for 2026 and looking for early signals on industrial demand.

U.S. stocks traded on a muted footing in the first session of the year,

Linde stock ends 2025 lower as Wall Street shuts for New Year’s Day — what to watch next for LIN

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 3:59 PM ET — Market closed Linde plc shares ended the year’s final trading day down 0.46% at $426.39, with U.S. markets closed on Thursday for the New Year’s Day holiday. Linde+1 The industrial-gases group, a steady large-cap in the materials space, often trades as a read-through on factory demand and large project activity. In holiday-thin conditions, even modest risk-off moves can show up quickly in defensives like LIN. That matters heading into the first full week of 2026. Investors are positioning for how quickly growth cools or re-accelerates, and whether easing financial conditions translate

Linde stock closes higher in thin year-end trade as Fed minutes reset rate bets

Linde stock closes higher in thin year-end trade as Fed minutes reset rate bets

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 20:17 ET — Market closed Linde plc shares closed up about 0.4% on Tuesday at $428.36. The Nasdaq-listed industrial gases maker traded between $423.31 and $429.46, with about 1.5 million shares changing hands. The muted move matters now because year-end positioning has thinned liquidity, making even small shifts in rates and risk appetite show up quickly in large-cap stocks. Investors are heading into the final U.S. trading session of 2025 with fresh signals on interest rates and a short list of economic releases that can move bond yields and equity valuations.

Linde stock edges higher in thin year-end trade as investors eye Fed minutes

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:34 ET — Regular session Linde plc shares edged higher on Tuesday as investors navigated thin year-end trading and awaited fresh signals on U.S. interest rates. The industrial gases company’s stock was up 0.2% at $427.21 by midday, while the SPDR S&P 500 ETF was down 0.1%. The small move matters now because late-December trading can exaggerate price swings. Investors are also watching for central bank clues that could move bond yields and, by extension, valuations across industrial and materials-linked names. “I wouldn’t try to make too much out of anything that happens in a

Linde stock edges higher as tech retreat drags Wall Street in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 13:26 ET — Regular session Linde shares rose 0.3% to $426.07 in early afternoon trading on Monday, after moving between $423.65 and $427.29 in the session. The industrial gases maker held up even as U.S. stocks dipped from record highs in thin, holiday-shortened trading — a setup that can exaggerate moves in individual names. “It’s a very light trading week ahead; volume is low,” said Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at CFRA Research in New York. He pointed to tax-loss harvesting — selling losing positions to offset capital-gains taxes — as one factor that can
