Vertiv stock (VRT) ends week higher after a wild swing — what investors watch next

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 04:55 EST — Market closed Shares of Vertiv Holdings Co (VRT.N) ended Friday’s session 0.8% higher, closing at $182.49. The stock capped off a volatile week for data-center infrastructure players, with traders now eyeing Monday’s Fed announcements and major tech earnings reports. The timing is crucial as markets zero in once more on whether AI investments are translating into profits or just swelling costs. “Earnings are the driver,” said Franklin Templeton senior market strategist Chris Galipeau. Apple, Microsoft, Meta, and Tesla are all set to report earnings in the next few days. (Reuters) Vertiv has

Vertical Aerospace stock price (EVTL) slips as Valo New York push meets dilution worries

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 04:46 EST — Market closed Vertical Aerospace Ltd shares closed Friday 2.6% lower at $5.60, on volume of around 1.1 million shares. The stock has dropped close to 7% in the last five trading days. (StockAnalysis) The shift shines a spotlight on a well-known dilemma in early-stage electric aviation: balancing visibility with funding. Investors demand clear evidence from testing and certification, while tracking cash flow as carefully as the progress of the aircraft itself. Vertical has worked to broaden its audience while keeping its balance-sheet options flexible. That mix can attract attention, but it also

USA Rare Earth stock faces Monday test after report of $1.6 billion U.S. stake deal

NEW YORK, January 25, 2026, 04:48 (EST) — Market closed USA Rare Earth (USAR.O) is set to draw attention when U.S. markets reopen Monday, after two sources told Reuters the Trump administration intends to buy a 10% stake in the firm as part of a $1.6 billion funding deal. Shares jumped 9.1% on Friday, closing at $24.77. (Reuters) The context is as much strategic as it is financial. Rare earths—a set of 17 minerals—are embedded in magnets and components powering everything from consumer electronics to military equipment. Washington has ramped up pressure to favor “buy here” supply chains. For USAR

New York, Jan 25, 2026, 04:55 EST — The market has closed. Joby Aviation Inc (JOBY) shares slipped 4.2% to close at $13.93 on Friday. Archer Aviation, another player in the electric air-taxi space, fell roughly 4.4%. U.S. markets were closed Sunday, setting the stage for Monday’s session to act as a reset after a week dominated by headlines. Investors will focus on the Fed’s decision and a wave of major earnings reports, both poised to shape risk appetite. (Reuters) This hits Joby hard since its stock behaves more like a wager on timing than on present sales. When risk

Marks & Spencer share price flat near 361p after UK retail sales beat forecasts — what’s next for MKS stock

London, Jan 25, 2026, 09:39 (GMT) — Market closed Marks and Spencer Group plc (MKS.L) shares ended Friday at 361 pence, slipping 0.06% amid a tight trading band between 359.5p and 368.9p. The British retailer, valued near £7.3 billion, remains under its 52-week peak following a volatile January. (Investing.com) The muted finish is significant since M&S offers an early glimpse into UK household spending—not just at the checkout. Food sales remain steady, but clothing is less reliable. This divide shapes expectations for margins and the spring outlook. Friday’s data revealed a stronger consumer picture than expected. Retail sales volumes climbed

London, Jan 25, 2026, 09:33 GMT — Market closed Shares in Smith & Nephew (SN.L) dropped 0.8% on Friday, ending the day at 1,225.5 pence.

Antofagasta stock faces Monday test after Chile roadblock strike, Centinela fine ahead of Q4 update

London, January 25, 2026, 09:24 GMT — The market has closed. Antofagasta (ANTO.L) shares enter the week under pressure as striking contractors renewed their blockade Saturday on the access road to BHP’s Escondida and Antofagasta Minerals’ Zaldivar copper mines, according to sources. The London-listed stock closed Friday up 1.9% at 3,584 pence (£35.84), recovering from a 2.2% drop the previous day. (Reuters) This matters since Antofagasta’s earnings remain closely tied to copper output and on-the-ground disruptions. The market often prices in those risks quickly, sometimes well before any actual impact on production shows up. This comes at a moment when

(Share Prices) London markets were closed Sunday, leaving traders to kick off Monday focused once more on UK consumer data.

London, Jan 25, 2026, 09:19 GMT — Trading has ended Fresnillo shares ended Friday at 4,168 pence, gaining 2.06% and hitting a fresh 52-week peak. The London market remains closed Sunday, so the next update will arrive when trading resumes Monday. (MarketWatch) It’s significant since Fresnillo focuses primarily on silver, though it also mines gold, and both metals’ prices have dominated headlines. The firm calls itself the world’s top silver producer and a major gold producer in Mexico. (fresnilloplc.com) In London, bullion-related assets found a boost. The FTSE 100 slipped a bit to close the week, yet precious metal miners

Imperial Brands share price: buyback pace and new €15bn bond prospectus sharpen focus for AGM week

London, Jan 25, 2026, 09:26 GMT — Markets have shut down for the day. Imperial Brands (IMB.L) started the new week with shares nudging up slightly, following two late-week announcements that brought funding and capital returns back into focus. The cigarette maker’s finance arm rolled out a new prospectus for a €15 billion debt issuance programme. At the same time, the company kept buying back shares to cancel under its current buyback plan. The mix matters now: buybacks boost earnings per share by cutting the share count, but new debt filings raise concerns about leverage and refinancing amid ongoing attention
