MIAX slides as year-end trading thins — what traders are watching next

MIAX slides as year-end trading thins — what traders are watching next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:19 ET — Regular session. Miami International Holdings, Inc. shares were down 2.2% on Wednesday midday, a softer tape in thin, year-end trading for the exchange operator. The stock last traded at $44.70, down $0.99 from the previous close, after moving between $44.05 and $46.00 in the session. (https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/stock/miax) MarketWatch Why it matters now: MIAX has become a closely watched “picks-and-shovels” bet on derivatives activity — and into the final sessions of the year, investors often focus less on new headlines and more on positioning, liquidity and supply-demand shifts in recently listed names.

Apple stock slips in year-end trading as tech drags; what investors watch next

Apple stock slips in year-end trading as tech drags; what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:07 ET — Regular session Apple shares dipped on Wednesday as investors continued to trim exposure to large technology names into the end of the year. The iPhone maker’s stock was down 0.2% at $272.63, after trading between $271.78 and $273.58. The move mattered because Apple’s enormous weighting in major indexes often makes it a bellwether for shifts in risk appetite on quiet days, when small flows can move prices more than usual. U.S. stocks were modestly lower in holiday-thin trading, extending a late-December drift that has undercut expectations for a “Santa Claus rally,” a
Broadcom stock slips today as insider sale filings hit tape in thin year-end trade

Broadcom stock slips today as insider sale filings hit tape in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:12 ET — Regular session Broadcom Inc. shares slipped in midday trading on Wednesday, down 0.7% at $347.36. The stock touched a session low of $345.43 as the final U.S. trading session of 2025 stayed choppy. The pullback matters because the semiconductor group is heading into 2026 with investors split on how much AI-driven spending can keep offsetting margin pressure from custom chips. Broadcom is a bellwether for that trade because it sells both AI-related silicon and enterprise software through VMware. Year-end trading can magnify small moves, and insider transactions draw extra attention in thin

Regencell Bioscience (RGC) stock slides nearly 5% in year-end trading as volatility persists

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:51 ET — Regular session Regencell Bioscience Holdings Limited shares were down 4.8% at $21.79 as of 11:51 a.m. ET, after trading between $21.44 and $23.11 in a choppy session. The move came without any new company announcements. Regencell’s investor-relations site lists its most recent press release dated Oct. 31, and the latest SEC filing on EDGAR is its annual report filed the same day. Regencell Bioscience -+1 The pullback also tracked a softer tape across Wall Street on the final trading day of 2025, with trading volumes muted heading into the New Year’s holiday.

Genmab stock slides today as GMAB shelves acasunlimab; Merus takeout steps in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:38 ET — Regular session Genmab A/S (GMAB) shares slid on Wednesday, down about 3.3% at $30.44 in New York trading, as investors weighed a late-stage pipeline cut and the closing steps of a major acquisition. The Nasdaq-listed ADR touched $30.36 after opening at $31.42. Genmab said on Dec. 29 it will discontinue further clinical development of acasunlimab following a portfolio review and said the move does not change its full-year 2025 financial guidance. “Although the data have been encouraging, the compelling opportunities we see in our late‑stage pipeline led us to focus our investments,”

Tesla stock today slips as TSLA braces for Q4 deliveries after Tesla posts analyst consensus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:55 ET — Regular session Tesla shares were down about 0.2% at $453.58 in late morning trading on Wednesday, extending a muted move as investors focused on near-term demand signals into year-end. The stock traded between $452.42 and $458.39 in the session. The market’s attention is on Tesla’s fourth-quarter and full-year production and delivery report due Friday, a closely watched update that investors use as an early read on demand before earnings. Analysts polled by Visible Alpha expect Tesla deliveries of about 432,810 vehicles for the quarter, down roughly 13% from a year earlier after

AMD stock today: Shares edge higher as traders eye Lisa Su’s CES keynote

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:58 ET — Regular session Shares of Advanced Micro Devices rose about 0.3% to $215.92 in late-morning trading on Wednesday. The stock has ranged from $213.61 to $217.54 so far in the session. The move comes with investors squaring year-end positions and looking ahead to near-term catalysts in early January, including AMD’s scheduled appearance at the CES tech show in Las Vegas. AMD AMD heads into the close of 2025 after a sharp run that has shifted attention toward what comes next in the AI chip race. MarketWatch reported the stock has gained about 78%

Nvidia stock ticks higher after China H200 supply report; NVDA eyes CES, earnings

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:52 ET — Regular session. Nvidia shares edged higher on Wednesday after a report said the company has approached Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co to ramp production of its H200 chips for Chinese customers. The stock was up 0.7% at $188.82 in late-morning New York trading. Reuters The development matters because Nvidia’s data-center products sit at the center of the AI spending boom, and any change in China access can swing expectations for demand and supply. The H200 is a graphics processing unit, or GPU — a specialized chip used to train and run AI models.

Meta stock today: META slips after Reuters scam-ad “playbook” report as Manus AI deal stays in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:57 ET — Regular session Meta Platforms shares dipped on Wednesday after a Reuters investigation said internal documents showed the Facebook and Instagram owner developed a “global playbook” to fend off pressure to crack down on scammers and delay tougher checks on advertisers. Meta was down 0.4% at $663 by 11:57 a.m. ET, after closing at $665.95 on Tuesday. The documents said Meta estimated universal advertiser verification — an identity check before ads run — could cost about $2 billion to implement and reduce revenue by up to 4.8%, while Google has said it has

Microsoft stock slips in late-morning trade as year-end tech selling weighs on megacaps

Microsoft stock slips in late-morning trade as year-end tech selling weighs on megacaps

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:52 ET — Regular session Microsoft (MSFT) shares fell 0.5% to $484.89 in late morning trading on Wednesday, after opening at $487.55. The stock has traded between $484.35 and $488.30, valuing the software maker at about $3.85 trillion. The dip matters now because Microsoft is one of the heaviest weights in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq, and year-end positioning can sway index performance. Wall Street’s major indexes slipped in holiday-thin trading, extending a late-December tech wobble that has tested the usual “Santa Claus rally” — a seasonal pattern that often sees stocks rise in the

Micron stock slips today as China’s CXMT targets $4.2 billion DRAM IPO

Micron stock slips today as China’s CXMT targets $4.2 billion DRAM IPO

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:00 ET — Regular session Micron Technology, Inc. shares were down about 1.8% at $287.35 in late-morning New York trading on Wednesday. The stock has ranged from $284.45 to $293.91 so far in the session, with about 9.2 million shares traded. The move matters now because Micron has become a high-sensitivity bet on memory pricing, where profits can swing quickly when supply or demand shifts. After a sharp run this year, investors have shown less tolerance for headlines that hint at fresh capacity. Micron has been among the strongest S&P 500 performers in 2025, with

Nasdaq Keeps PLTS Trading Halted With No Reason Listed as Bengaluru ‘My Room, My Rules’ Row Spreads Online

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:28 ET Nasdaq kept trading in Platinum Analytics Cayman Limited (PLTS) halted on Wednesday, with the reason listed as “not available” as of 10:23 a.m. ET, according to a Reuters market notice. TradingView The halt matters because it prevents investors from buying or selling the shares while they wait for clarity, a bigger issue in thin year-end trading when price swings can be sharper once a stock reopens. Nasdaq normally assigns a code when it pauses trading — including “news pending,” used when material news is expected, and “additional information requested,” which can follow a

Why Life360 stock is sliding today as year-end trading hits tech names

Why Life360 stock is sliding today as year-end trading hits tech names

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:12 ET — Regular session Life360, Inc. shares were down 4.4% at $63.79 in morning trading, after moving between $63.79 and $67.05. The Nasdaq-listed stock was off $2.94 from Tuesday’s close and had traded about 108,000 shares. The move comes as investors close the books on the final trading day of 2025, a stretch that often brings thinner liquidity and sharper price swings in smaller growth stocks. Wall Street’s major indexes were slightly lower and tech stocks extended losses as markets looked ahead to the path of U.S. interest rates into 2026. “The economy showed

PSLV stock today: Sprott Physical Silver Trust slides as silver retreats — what investors are watching

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:08 ET — Regular session Sprott Physical Silver Trust (PSLV) slid 4.3% to $24.14 in Wednesday trading, tracking a renewed drop in silver prices after a record-setting run. The move matters because PSLV is one of the most heavily traded, exchange-listed ways to get exposure to physical silver, making it a quick read on sentiment when the metal turns volatile. Spot silver was down about 5% near $73 an ounce after hitting a record $83.62 on Monday, and it is up more than 150% year-to-date, Reuters reported. “The short-term is very choppy … but we
XPeng stock slides 6% today as Chinese EV shares retreat in thin year-end trade

XPeng stock slides 6% today as Chinese EV shares retreat in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:11 ET — Regular session XPeng Inc’s U.S.-listed shares slid about 6% on Wednesday, down 6.0% at $19.99 by 11:11 a.m. ET. The late-year session often brings thinner liquidity, which can magnify moves in higher-risk names. For investors in Chinese EVs, the timing matters because fresh demand signals arrive in early January, when manufacturers typically publish monthly delivery figures and China rolls out updated consumer incentives. XPeng’s ADRs (American depositary receipts, the U.S.-traded version of its shares) opened at $20.50 and hit a low of $19.87 before paring losses. The stock traded as high as

ICL stock rises about 3% as fertilizer prices cool — what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 11:00 ET — Regular session ICL Group Ltd shares were up about 3.4% at $5.73 in morning trading on Wednesday, after touching $5.75 at the session high. The stock opened at $5.53 and traded as low as $5.55, with about 1.2 million shares changing hands. The move lands as investors gauge pricing signals for crop nutrients heading into 2026, after a late-December pullback in retail fertilizer prices. DTN said seven of eight major fertilizers it tracks were lower in the fourth week of December, including diammonium phosphate (DAP) — a common phosphate fertilizer — down

Via Transportation stock rises today as VIA trims post-IPO slump in New York trade

Via Transportation stock rises today as VIA trims post-IPO slump in New York trade

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:45 ET — Regular session Shares of Via Transportation Inc climbed about 3% to $30.38 by late morning on Wednesday, after trading as low as $29.40 and as high as $30.51. About 110,000 shares had changed hands. The bounce matters because Via is still in the early months of life as a public company, when liquidity and valuation can swing sharply on small shifts in sentiment. Investors are also trying to map a contract-heavy public transit business onto a quarterly earnings calendar. Via sells software that helps transit agencies and cities run on-demand shuttles and

Why TeraWulf (WULF) stock is up today: KBW upgrade flags AI leasing pivot and $1.3B Texas financing

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:44 ET — Regular session Shares of TeraWulf Inc rose about 4.4% to $11.64 in morning trading on Wednesday after Keefe, Bruyette & Woods upgraded the stock to Outperform and raised its price target to $24 from $9.50. TipRanks The call matters because crypto miners are increasingly being valued as power-and-real-estate plays, not just bets on bitcoin prices. Investors have been looking for steadier revenue streams as bitcoin mining margins swing with token prices, network difficulty and electricity costs. TeraWulf has been pushing deeper into renting out data-center capacity to customers running artificial intelligence workloads,

Polestar stock jumps as BBVA discloses 8.4% stake and Geely backstop details surface

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:37 ET — Regular session Polestar Automotive Holding UK PLC shares rose 4.4% to $20.38 in morning trading on Wednesday after a regulatory filing showed Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria (BBVA) held an 8.4% stake. The bank reported beneficial ownership of 7,755,946 Class A American Depositary Shares (ADSs) as of Dec. 23 and disclosed a put option arrangement tied to Geely affiliates. SEC The disclosures matter because Polestar’s funding and potential dilution remain central to the equity story, and fresh ownership data can signal how recent capital has been placed. For traders, the terms around new

Molina Healthcare stock rises again after Michael Burry touts insurer; Feb. 5 earnings in focus

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 10:30 ET — Regular session Molina Healthcare Inc shares were up 2.1% at $174.33 by 10:30 a.m. ET on Wednesday, after trading between $170.03 and $176.33 earlier in the session. The move matters because Molina has been highly sensitive to shifts in sentiment after cutting its 2025 profit outlook in October on higher medical costs, particularly in its Affordable Care Act marketplace business. “Approximately half of our underperformance is driven by the Marketplace business,” CEO Joseph Zubretsky said at the time. Reuters Investors are now looking to the company’s next update for signs that medical-cost
