India Stock Market Today (Dec 26, 2025): Sensex Slips ~300 Points, Nifty Near 26,050 as IT & Financials Drag in Thin Year-End Trade

New Delhi, December 26, 2025 — The Indian stock market traded in the red on Friday as Dalal Street reopened after the Christmas holiday, with thin year-end volumes and a lack of fresh domestic triggers keeping sentiment cautious. By late morning, IT and heavyweight financial names were among the key drags, while select metals and PSU/railway-linked counters drew buying interest.

Frencken Group Limited (SGX:E28) Stock: Latest News, Share Price, Analyst Forecasts and 2026 Outlook (Dec 26, 2025)

SINGAPORE — Dec. 26, 2025 — Frencken Group Limited shares were trading around S$1.40 on Friday, Dec. 26, after a busy stretch of headlines that included a 3Q2025 business update, multiple broker note revisions, and fresh attention from strategists looking ahead to Singapore’s 2026 market themes. Investing For investors tracking the counter (ticker SGX:E28, commonly shown as E28.SI), the near-term debate is unusually crisp: Frencken’s semiconductor-linked momentum is improving, but analysts and management have also flagged pockets of softness—especially around analytical life sciences demand and a recalibration of order flows tied to a key European semiconductor customer ecosystem.

MMTC Share Price Surges on Massive Volume Today (Dec 26, 2025) as Shangar Decor Attempts a Technical Rebound

Mumbai/New Delhi | December 26, 2025 — A mixed session for Indian equities turned into a standout day for select small-cap and micro-cap counters, led by MMTC Ltd, which vaulted higher on unusually heavy trading activity. Meanwhile, Shangar Decor Ltd—a micro-cap that has been under pressure for months—showed signs of a short-term bounce that chart-watchers are tracking for a possible “recovery” setup.

DBS Group Holdings (SGX: D05) Stock Hits Fresh Highs: Dividend Engine, S$8B Capital Return Plan, and the 2026 Outlook (Dec 26, 2025)

SINGAPORE (Dec. 26, 2025) — DBS Group Holdings Ltd (SGX: D05) is ending 2025 in the kind of territory long-term bank investors like: near the top of its 52-week range, supported by hefty shareholder payouts and a wave of “Singapore as a safe haven” capital flows. But with interest rates no longer a one-way escalator, the 2026 debate is shifting from “how high can net interest income go?” to “how well can DBS protect margins — and keep fee income growing — as rates drift lower?” As of Dec. 26, 2025, DBS shares were around S$56.29, after a previous close

Singtel Stock (SGX:Z74) on 26 Dec 2025: Latest News, Analyst Targets, Forecasts and What to Watch in 2026

Singapore Telecommunications Limited (Singtel) has spent much of 2025 behaving less like a sleepy incumbent telco and more like a hybrid telecom + digital infrastructure story—helped by asset recycling, capital returns, and renewed attention on data centres and regional associates. As of 26 December 2025, Singtel shares traded around S$4.59–S$4.60, up about 1.1% on the day and still not far from recent highs. SG InvestorsThe bigger question investors are wrestling with into 2026: can Singtel keep compounding “steady telco cashflows” with “infrastructure-style growth,” while containing the real-world operational and regulatory risks that come with being a critical national and regional

OCBC Stock (SGX:O39) on 26 Dec 2025: Latest News, Analyst Forecasts, Dividend and 2026 Outlook

Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited (OCBC) is closing out 2025 with its share price hovering near record territory—an eye-catching finish in a year where Singapore bank stocks have been pulled between two big forces: falling rate tailwinds turning into margin headwinds, and a surge in fee-driven wealth activity that’s been doing the heavy lifting for earnings. On 26 December 2025, OCBC shares were trading at S$19.860 (up 0.40% on the day at the time of the snapshot), with a day range of S$19.660 to S$19.890 and a 52-week range of S$14.350 to S$19.950—a very “near-the-ceiling” setup heading into year-end positioning and

Singapore Stock Market Today (26 Dec 2025): STI Edges Higher as Thin Holiday Trade Absorbs Strong Factory Data and 2026 Outlooks

SINGAPORE — Singapore shares ended slightly firmer on Friday, 26 December 2025, as the Straits Times Index (STI) held near year-end highs despite holiday-thinned liquidity across Asia. The session’s tone was shaped by a mix of local growth signals—notably a strong jump in Singapore’s factory output—alongside global cross-currents from record precious-metal prices, a shifting US rate-cut narrative, and fresh policy and corporate developments that investors see as supportive for Singapore equities going into 2026. Investing Market Wrap: Straits Times Index closes higher, tests a 52-week high The benchmark STI closed at 4,642.18, up 5.84 points (+0.13%) on the day. Trading

Xero Limited Stock (ASX:XRO) on 26 December 2025: Latest News, Forecasts, Analyst Targets, and Key Catalysts for 2026

Xero Limited stock is spending Boxing Day (26 December 2025) in “market-closed, investors-thinking” mode. The ASX is shut for the public holiday, following an early close on Wednesday, 24 December. Australian Securities Exchange As of the last session (24 December 2025), Xero (ASX:XRO) closed at A$112.78, capping a bruising year: the stock’s 2025 range spans roughly A$108.20 to A$196.52, and the “This Year (2025)” performance shown by one major market data provider is down about 32%. Intelligent Investor That drawdown is why Xero is still a headline name even on a quiet calendar day: it’s not a microcap story. Xero’s

Westpac Banking Corporation (ASX:WBC) heads into the final stretch of 2025 with its share price still sitting near multi-year highs—but with a noticeably more cautious tone in analyst price targets. With the ASX closed for Boxing Day (Friday, 26 December 2025), investors are using the holiday lull to digest a busy run of updates on strategy, regulation, governance and the evolving scam-and-cybersecurity arms race that is reshaping how banks allocate tech spend.

Macquarie Group (ASX:MQG) Stock News and Forecasts: ASIC Settlement, Dividend, and Analyst Targets as of Dec. 26, 2025

December 26, 2025 Macquarie Group Limited—often called Australia’s “millionaires factory” for its investment-banking pedigree and performance-linked culture—heads into the final week of 2025 with investors balancing three big forces: a diversified earnings engine that can shine when markets and dealmaking cooperate, a regulatory headline cycle that refuses to fully go away, and a set of analyst forecasts that still imply upside—just not the kind that comes without footnotes. As of Dec. 26, 2025, Macquarie Group shares are quoted around A$205.03, reflecting the most recent close from Dec. 24 (with local market holidays affecting trading days).

DroneShield Limited Stock (ASX:DRO): Latest Contract Wins, Governance Reset, and Analyst Forecasts as 2026 Nears

SYDNEY, 26 December 2025 — DroneShield Limited (ASX:DRO) heads into the final stretch of 2025 with two fresh catalysts on investors’ screens: another military-linked contract win in Asia Pacific and a formal governance “reset” designed to rebuild confidence after a sharp, controversial sell-off in November. Because the ASX cash market is closed on Boxing Day (Friday, 26 December), the most current tradable reference point for DroneShield shares is the last ASX session before the holiday break. The ASX trading calendar shows Boxing Day (26 December) as closed, following the Christmas-period schedule. Australian Securities Exchange As of the most recently reported

Fortescue Ltd Stock (ASX:FMG) on 26 December 2025: Latest News, Iron Ore Outlook, Analyst Forecasts and 2026 Watchlist

Fortescue Ltd (ASX:FMG) heads into the final week of 2025 in a familiar tug-of-war: the company remains one of the ASX’s most direct “iron ore price” plays, but the narrative around Fortescue stock is widening again—toward copper, supply-chain bottlenecks at Port Hedland, and the longer game of decarbonising steel. Boxing Day (December 26, 2025) adds a practical wrinkle for investors: the Australian Securities Exchange is closed today, so price discovery is paused locally while global macro headlines keep moving.
