P&G stock dips after Fed minutes as year-end trading thins — what investors watch next

P&G stock dips after Fed minutes as year-end trading thins — what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:30 ET — After-hours Procter & Gamble shares were last down about 0.3% at $144.05 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, after trading in a narrow $143.58-$144.60 range during the session. The move came as Wall Street drifted lower in light year-end volumes after the Federal Reserve released minutes from its December policy meeting. The Dow fell 0.2%, the S&P 500 slipped 0.14% and the Nasdaq lost 0.23%, Reuters reported. Reuters Why it matters now: late-December trading can exaggerate sector rotations because big investors often step back and liquidity thins. The Fed minutes underscored a live

QBTS stock: D-Wave Quantum steadies near $26 after hours as traders eye CES and Qubits events

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:16 ET — After-hours Shares of D-Wave Quantum Inc (QBTS) edged up 0.3% to $26.25 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, after a choppy session that ranged from $26.03 to $27.46. About 36 million shares changed hands. The move keeps the stock in focus as quantum-computing pure plays swing sharply into year-end. Investor’s Business Daily said the group has seesawed since a late-December pop as traders took profits and holiday volumes thinned. Investors.com D-Wave is still up more than 200% in 2025, magnifying day-to-day moves tied to risk appetite and headlines on when quantum systems translate
GE Aerospace stock barely moves after Fed minutes; next catalyst is Jan. 22 earnings

GE Aerospace stock barely moves after Fed minutes; next catalyst is Jan. 22 earnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:23 ET — After-hours GE Aerospace (NYSE: GE) shares closed up 0.1% on Tuesday at $311.79 and were unchanged in after-hours trading, after moving between $310.66 and $312.93 during the session. StockAnalysis The jet-engine maker edged higher as Wall Street ended slightly lower in thin, year-end trading after investors parsed Federal Reserve minutes. “At the end of the day, solid corporate profits can make up for a lot of sins,” said Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group. Reuters That backdrop matters for GE now because rate expectations feed directly into valuations for industrial
Salesforce stock (CRM) slips after-hours as year-end tech trade cools and Fed minutes bite

Salesforce stock (CRM) slips after-hours as year-end tech trade cools and Fed minutes bite

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:23 ET — After-hours Salesforce (CRM) shares slipped 0.1% in after-hours trading on Tuesday to $265.92. The stock opened at $266.66 and traded between $265.38 and $268.21 during the regular session, with volume around 3.3 million shares. The late-day drift matters because year-end trading is thin, and small orders can move large-cap software names more than usual. With 2026 positioning under way, investors are quick to trim risk when the tape softens. Salesforce sits at the intersection of two themes that have dominated markets into the close of 2025: interest-rate expectations and a race to

Russia’s nuclear-capable Oreshnik missiles appear in Belarus as Ukraine peace talks tighten

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:13 ET Russia on Tuesday released video of what it said was the deployment of its nuclear-capable hypersonic Oreshnik missile system in neighbouring Belarus, placing the weapon on combat duty for the first time. Reuters Why it matters now is geography. Belarus borders Ukraine and NATO members Poland, Lithuania and Latvia, and the move would bring Russian missiles closer to European targets. The announcement also lands as Washington presses Moscow and Kyiv to close a deal to end the war, with both sides still at odds over territorial control and post-war security guarantees. Russia’s state

Bank of America stock today: BAC drifts lower as Fed minutes keep rate path in focus

Bank of America stock today: BAC drifts lower as Fed minutes keep rate path in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 18:13 ET — After-hours. Bank of America shares slipped 0.1% in Tuesday’s regular session and held near $55.28 in after-hours trading. The stock traded between $55.18 and $55.64, with about 17.4 million shares changing hands. That matters now because the interest-rate outlook feeds directly into net interest income — what a bank earns on loans minus what it pays on deposits. When rates fall, that spread can narrow if deposit costs do not drop as quickly as loan yields. Bond markets are also recalibrating for 2026 after the Federal Reserve cut rates by 75 basis

CoreWeave stock slips after-hours after insider sale filing; CRWV traders watch what comes next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:53 ET — After-hours CoreWeave shares fell 1.4% to $73.90 in regular trading on Tuesday and slipped 0.3% after the bell to $73.70. The stock move landed as investors weighed an insider sale disclosed in a regulatory filing, a headline that can carry extra weight in holiday-thin markets when volumes are light and price swings can widen. SEC CoreWeave has become a closely watched proxy for artificial-intelligence infrastructure spending, and traders remain quick to react to signs of added share supply or shifts in sentiment around capital intensity. In a Form 4 filed on Monday,

Lam Research (LRCX) slips after report China tightens “50% domestic tools” push

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:52 ET — After-hours Lam Research shares were last down 1.2% at $173.78 in after-hours trading on Tuesday, after ranging between $173.51 and $177.26 in the regular session. Applied Materials fell 1.2% and KLA slipped 1.3%, while Dutch rival ASML rose about 0.6%. The move followed a Reuters report that China is requiring chipmakers to use at least 50% domestically made equipment when building or expanding capacity — a shift that could squeeze foreign tool suppliers. The report said the policy is being enforced through procurement tenders tied to state approvals and is already nudging

Citigroup stock slides after $1.2 billion Russia-exit hit; investors eye Jan. 14 earnings

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 5:35 PM ET — After-hours Citigroup shares fell on Tuesday after the bank disclosed that selling its remaining Russia business will trigger a roughly $1.2 billion pre-tax loss. Reuters The update lands days before the year ends and weeks ahead of Citi’s fourth-quarter results, when investors will see the impact of the accounting charge and any knock-on effects on capital and expenses. Reuters Citi said the loss is “largely related to the currency translation adjustment,” a bookkeeping line that records gains or losses when a foreign unit’s accounts are converted into U.S. dollars.

Natural gas price today: UNG stock ticks up after hours as Henry Hub futures settle below $4

Natural gas price today: UNG stock ticks up after hours as Henry Hub futures settle below $4

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:47 ET — After-hours U.S. natural gas futures settled lower on Tuesday as warmer early-January forecasts cooled demand expectations, while the United States Natural Gas Fund (UNG) ETF was modestly higher in after-hours trading. The price action matters now because gas markets are entering the core winter heating period, when small changes in temperature outlooks can quickly swing demand and prices. Those swings spill into popular natural-gas ETFs such as UNG, which many investors use as a stock-like proxy for gas futures. A U.S. government storage report released Monday showed working gas in storage fell

AI stocks today: Meta rises on Manus buy as Nvidia slips and Fed minutes keep rates in focus

AI stocks today: Meta rises on Manus buy as Nvidia slips and Fed minutes keep rates in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:48 ET — After-hours Meta Platforms rose on Tuesday after the Facebook owner said it would acquire Chinese-founded artificial intelligence startup Manus, keeping the spotlight on “agent” software that can act on a user’s behalf. The move matters now because Big Tech’s AI spending cycle is shifting beyond chatbots toward tools designed to do work, not just answer questions. Deals and funding rounds are one way companies try to buy speed in a crowded market. It also lands into year-end positioning, when light volumes can exaggerate moves and investors rebalance away from crowded winners. Rate

Gold price stock today: GLD steadies after wild swing as Fed minutes, margin hike keep traders cautious

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:43 ET — After-hours Gold prices rebounded on Tuesday, helping gold-linked stocks hold firmer in U.S. after-hours trading after a sharp two-day swing. The timing matters. Year-end liquidity is thin, and that has made price moves look bigger and faster than many traders expected. Investors are also repricing the path for U.S. interest rates after the Federal Reserve’s latest meeting minutes highlighted divisions on policy, keeping the dollar and yields in focus. The SPDR Gold Shares exchange-traded fund (ETF) — a stock-like fund backed by physical bullion — was up 0.1% at $398.89 in late

Dow Jones today: DJIA slips after Fed minutes; Boeing pops on $8.6B Pentagon deal

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:41 ET — After-hours The Dow Jones Industrial Average ended Tuesday slightly lower as investors parsed Federal Reserve minutes and trimmed exposure into year-end. The blue-chip index fell 94.87 points, or 0.2%, to 48,367.06. Reuters The soft finish comes with one more U.S. trading session left in 2025, a period when reduced liquidity can magnify small shifts in positioning. For the Dow, which is price-weighted, moves in higher-priced components can have an outsized impact on the index. Trading stayed subdued in a holiday-thinned market, with many investors already winding down activity for the year, the

Meta’s Manus AI deal lifts META as S&P 500 slips in thin year-end trade; Fed minutes in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:42 ET — After-hours U.S. stocks finished modestly lower on Tuesday, with Meta Platforms climbing on an AI acquisition that helped offset weakness in technology and financial shares. The S&P 500 fell 0.14% to 6,896.24, the Nasdaq Composite slid 0.23% to 23,419.08 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dipped 0.20% to 48,367.06. Reuters The subdued close mattered because trading desks are heading into the final session of 2025 with holiday-thinned liquidity, a setup that can exaggerate price swings. Investors have also started to rotate within the market after last week’s rally pushed the S&P 500
Cisco stock slips in year-end trade as Fed minutes keep CSCO investors cautious

Cisco stock slips in year-end trade as Fed minutes keep CSCO investors cautious

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:34 ET — After-hours Cisco Systems’ shares closed down 0.49% on Tuesday and edged up slightly in after-hours trading, tracking a muted late-December tape for U.S. technology stocks. The timing matters. With only a handful of sessions left in 2025, thin liquidity can amplify moves in large-cap names, and investors are rebalancing portfolios ahead of early-January data and policy events. Cisco sits near the center of that recalibration because investors treat it as a read-through on enterprise IT budgets and the networking buildout tied to artificial intelligence workloads. Cisco closed at $77.41 and traded as

Coinbase stock dips after-hours as Needham slashes target, flags weak crypto volumes

Coinbase stock dips after-hours as Needham slashes target, flags weak crypto volumes

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:20 ET — After-hours Coinbase Global shares slipped in after-hours trading on Tuesday after Needham lowered its price target on the crypto exchange operator, pointing to a weaker outlook for trading activity. TipRanks The call matters because Coinbase’s results are closely tied to trading volumes — the amount of buying and selling on its platforms — which can cool when price momentum fades and retail investors step back. TipRanks That dynamic is back in focus heading into year-end, when liquidity thins and swings in crypto-linked stocks can be amplified by small shifts in risk appetite.

Visa stock today: V slips after hours after SEC filing details class B conversion-rate cut

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 5:24 PM ET — After-hours. Visa Inc shares were down about 0.3% in after-hours trading on Tuesday after the payments processor disclosed in a Form 8-K — a filing used to report major events to investors — that it updated the conversion rates on its class B-1 and B-2 common stock following a $500 million deposit into its U.S. litigation escrow account. Visa said the B-1 conversion rate fell to 1.5491 from 1.5549 and the B-2 rate fell to 1.5108 from 1.5223, cutting the “as-converted” class B-2 share count by about 1.38 million and the

Boeing stock moves after-hours on $8.6 billion Pentagon F-15 deal for Israel

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:29 ET — After-hours Boeing stock rose about 0.6% to $218.50 in after-hours trading on Tuesday after the Pentagon said it awarded the company an $8.6 billion contract for the F-15 Israel Program, covering 25 new F-15IA fighter jets with an option for 25 more. Work will be performed in St. Louis and is expected to run through Dec. 31, 2035, the Pentagon said. The announcement came after U.S. President Donald Trump met Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Florida, Reuters reported. The defense award matters because Boeing investors have been looking for clearer line-of-sight

Sandisk stock today: SNDK slips after-hours as company sets Jan. 29 earnings date

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:33 ET — After-hours Sandisk Corp (SNDK) slipped in after-hours trading on Tuesday after the company set Jan. 29 for its next earnings report. Shares were last down 1.6% at $240.22. Business Wire The calendar update lands as Sandisk heads into the final two sessions of the year with a stock that has been among 2025’s biggest S&P 500 gainers. That has kept traders on alert for outsized swings around even routine company updates. Kiplinger Investors use Sandisk’s results as a read on demand and pricing for NAND flash — the memory used in storage
AST SpaceMobile stock rises today after insider-buy filing as options heat up on BlueBird rollout

AST SpaceMobile stock rises today after insider-buy filing as options heat up on BlueBird rollout

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 17:15 ET — After-hours AST SpaceMobile, Inc. shares rose on Tuesday and were last up about 4.3% at $74.68 in after-hours trading, extending a volatile stretch for the satellite-to-smartphone company. The move matters because investors are trying to pin down how quickly AST can turn recent launch milestones into repeatable deployment — and, eventually, commercial service that supports the stock’s premium expectations. In the near term, traders have been keying off any new disclosures on insider activity, partner readiness and derivatives positioning as proxies for sentiment ahead of the company’s next operational updates.
