Mastercard stock slips with payments peers as year-end trading thins; MA eyes Fed minutes

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 21:31 ET — Market closed Mastercard Inc shares fell 0.3% to $577.90 on Monday, after trading between $577.01 and $581.99. The move mattered because year-end liquidity is thinning, amplifying small shifts in risk appetite across large-cap stocks. Investors also start repositioning for January, when macro data and central bank signals typically regain control of price action. For payments stocks, the rate outlook has become a near-term driver. Expectations for 2026 policy easing can support spending and travel volumes that generate fees for card networks, while higher yields can pressure equity valuations. Wall Street’s main indexes

Visa stock slips in after-hours as Wall Street cools in year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 19:08 ET — After-hours As of 7:08 p.m. ET, Visa Inc. shares were down 0.1% at $354.61 in after-hours trading. The stock traded between $353.83 and $356.54 on the day.

Visa is watched as a proxy for consumer and business activity because it earns fees when card payments run over

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 2:10 p.m. ET — Market closed. Mastercard Incorporated (NYSE: MA) heads into the final full trading week of 2025 with investors balancing three cross-currents: resilient consumer spending signals, ongoing legal and regulatory overhang tied to merchant and ATM fee litigation, and a Wall Street outlook that remains broadly bullish even as the stock trades near recent highs.

Reuters With U.S. stock exchanges shut for the weekend, investors’ immediate question is less about what’s trading right now and more about what could move the financial sector when the next session begins—especially in a holiday-thinned tape where modest flows
