Mastercard stock steadies in premarket as Trump’s 10% credit-card cap talk keeps MA in focus

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 07:30 EST — Premarket Mastercard shares ticked up 0.2% in premarket on Wednesday, reaching $546.01 after Tuesday’s close at $544.99. The payment giant has been caught in a wider selloff amid renewed political concerns over U.S. credit-card fees. (StockAnalysis) President Donald Trump’s plan to cap credit-card interest rates at 10% for one year beginning Jan. 20 has sparked debate, though details on enforcement remain scarce. Wall Street analysts say such a broad cap would probably need congressional approval, and they see slim chances of it passing. Still, the headline alone has rattled the sector. (Reuters)

Visa stock hit again by Trump’s 10% credit-card rate cap push as traders eye Jan. 20

New York, January 14, 2026, 05:25 ET — Premarket Visa Inc shares dropped 4.5%, ending Tuesday at $327.88. The move was notable for a Dow component, following renewed White House pressure on credit-card fees that rattled payments stocks. The selloff boils down to one key factor: President Donald Trump proposed a one-year cap of 10% on credit-card interest rates starting Jan. 20, effectively setting a legal maximum on what issuers can charge. JPMorgan’s Chief Financial Officer Jeremy Barnum slammed the plan as “very bad for consumers,” warning the bank would have to scale back credit availability. Trump also backed reducing

Visa stock slides nearly 5% as Trump’s credit-card rate cap plan hits payment networks

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 16:17 EST — After-hours Visa (NYSE: V) shares dropped nearly 5% Tuesday after President Donald Trump proposed a one-year cap on credit-card interest rates, intensifying pressure on the payments sector.

Last week, Trump proposed a 10% cap on rates but didn’t specify enforcement details. Wall Street experts say passing such a cap would probably need new legislation. A

New York, Jan 13, 2026, 10:53 AM ET — Regular session Shares of Visa (V) dropped 5.1% to $325.85 by late morning Tuesday, deepening a selloff in payment stocks sparked by President Donald Trump’s call for a one-year cap on credit card interest rates.
