US Stock Market Today: S&P 500 Hovers Near Record Highs in Thin Post‑Christmas Trading — What to Watch Into Year‑End

Wall Street is back from the Christmas break for a single, full trading session — and the tone so far has been calm, cautious, and close to record territory.

US Stock Market Open Dec. 26, 2025: Dow and S&P 500 at Record Highs, Fed-Cut Bets, and Nvidia’s Groq Deal in Focus

Wall Street reopens on Friday, December 26, 2025, after the market shut for Christmas Day and capped a holiday-shortened week with fresh record closes. The setup heading into the post-Christmas session is unusually “clean”: no big earnings slate, a light U.S. macro calendar, and a market that has been climbing on easing-rate expectations and a renewed bid for AI-linked mega-caps—all in thin liquidity that can magnify moves in either direction.

US Stock Market Today (Dec. 24, 2025): S&P 500 Near 7,000 After Record Close as Wall Street Trades a Short Christmas Eve Session

U.S. stocks head into Christmas Eve with momentum—and with one big caveat: time. Markets are open Wednesday, Dec. 24, 2025, but the session is shortened, setting up a low-liquidity trading day where even small order flows can look bigger than they are. Futures were cautious in the early hours after Tuesday’s record-setting finish for the S&P 500, as investors balance strong economic growth data against still-sticky inflation and shifting expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts.
