London — December 23, 2025 — NatWest Group Plc stock (LSE: NWG, NYSE ADR: NWG) is back in the spotlight after pushing to a new 52‑week high of 648.80p in today’s trading session, extending a powerful rerating that has lifted the shares by roughly 62% over the past year.

BP PLC Stock on Dec. 23, 2025: Share Price, New CEO Meg O’Neill, Castrol Sale Talks, Buybacks, and 2026 Oil Outlook

BP PLC stock is ending 2025 with a familiar mix of Big Oil fundamentals and BP-specific drama: a surprise leadership reset, a high-stakes divestment agenda (with Castrol at the center), and a market that’s trying to price 2026 oil demand against an oversupplied-looking crude backdrop. As of Tuesday, December 23, 2025, investors are digesting what BP’s board appears to be signaling: “more discipline, fewer detours.” The big question for BP shares (LSE: BP. / NYSE: BP) is whether that message translates into higher cash flow, lower net debt, and steadier shareholder returns—or simply another chapter in the company’s multi-year strategic

Unilever PLC Stock (ULVR, NYSE: UL): Latest News, Forecasts and Analyst Outlook as the Magnum Spin-Off Reshapes the Group (Dec. 23, 2025)

Unilever PLC stock is heading into year-end with a rare combination of “boring-staples” defensive qualities and very non-boring corporate action. The company has now completed the demerger of its ice cream business into The Magnum Ice Cream Company (TMICC) and executed a share consolidation (reverse split) designed to keep per-share metrics comparable post-spin. At the same time, management is pitching a sharper growth story—more beauty and wellbeing, more premium innovation, and a bigger U.S. deal pipeline—while analysts debate whether the “new Unilever” can finally deliver stronger, more reliable volume growth. Here’s what matters for Unilever PLC stock as of December

RELX PLC Stock (LSE: REL, NYSE: RELX): Buyback Update, 2026 Results Date, and Fresh Analyst Forecasts (23 Dec 2025)

RELX PLC stock is back on investors’ radar heading into year-end, not because of a splashy acquisition or an earnings surprise, but because the company is doing what high-cash-generation businesses love to do: shrinking the share count, tightening capital structure, and leaning hard into AI-enabled subscription products that keep customers paying through good cycles and bad. As of the latest close (22 December 2025), RELX shares traded around 3,046p in London, with a 52-week range of 2,970p to 4,205p—a reminder that 2025 has been a “great business, moody market” kind of year for the stock.
