American Airlines stock in focus as winter storms snarl travel and oil ticks higher

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 02:43 ET — Market closed.

Chevron stock on watch as oil climbs late Sunday ahead of U.S. open

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 22:52 ET — Market closed Oil prices rose nearly 1% late Sunday on renewed Middle East tensions, setting the tone for Chevron Corp when U.S. equity trading resumes on Monday.
