SMCI stock slips near $30 as Nvidia cools in year-end trade; what to watch

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:46 ET — Regular session Super Micro Computer shares fell about 1.1% to $30.29 in late afternoon trading on Monday, after swinging between $29.82 and $31.12 earlier in the session. The move matters now because year-end positioning is thinning liquidity and magnifying day-to-day swings in high-volatility tech names. Supermicro is treated as a proxy for spending on data-center builds, particularly systems that bundle advanced graphics chips into full server racks. With only a few sessions left in 2025, risk appetite has started to look more selective across AI suppliers. U.S. stocks dipped in light, holiday-shortened

DRDGOLD stock sinks as gold pulls back — what moved DRD today

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:07 ET — Regular session U.S.-listed shares of South Africa’s DRDGOLD Limited were down about 8.3% at $30.55 in afternoon trading on Monday, as gold-linked equities sold off. The stock opened at $31.37 and has traded between $30.25 and $33.15 so far in the session. The slide mattered because gold miners often move more than the underlying metal. Their costs tend to be slow to change, so swings in the gold price can quickly reshape profit expectations. That sensitivity comes into focus near year-end, when funds and commodity desks rebalance and lock in gains. Thin

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:46 ET — Regular session Synopsys, Inc. (SNPS) shares were up 0.4% at $479.18 in afternoon trading on Monday. The chip design software maker traded between $471.28 and $484.33. The move stood out as the broader market drifted lower into year-end.

Nvidia dips on Intel stake filing as AI stocks cool; DigitalBridge jumps on SoftBank deal

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:00 ET — Regular session Nvidia shares slid on Monday after Intel disclosed in a filing that the AI-chip designer had completed a $5 billion investment in the chipmaker, as a broader retreat in heavyweight technology stocks weighed on AI-linked names. Reuters+1 The move matters now because AI leaders have been central to this year’s U.S. equity run, and thin holiday trading can magnify swings as investors adjust positions into year-end. Reuters Investors are also tracking big-ticket infrastructure and partnership moves for clues on where the next wave of AI spending will land in 2026

MongoDB stock slides as “MongoBleed” exploitation warning puts database security in focus

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:18 ET — Regular session MongoDB Inc (MDB) shares were down about 2.2% at $426.35 in afternoon trading on Monday, after swinging between $421.11 and $435.80 earlier in the session. The decline put a spotlight on a cyber risk that can matter quickly for database providers: patching cadence. When a vulnerability can be exploited without a login, security teams often move to lock down internet exposure before they do anything else. That urgency can ripple into spending decisions.

MercadoLibre stock today: MELI edges higher as year-end trading stays thin

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:28 ET — Regular session. MercadoLibre, Inc. shares were up 0.4% at $2,014.52 on Monday afternoon, after trading as high as $2,037.13 and as low as $1,986.98. The Latin American e-commerce and payments bellwether is heading into the final three sessions of 2025, a stretch when lighter liquidity can make small moves look bigger than they are. That timing matters because investors often use liquid growth stocks to fine-tune exposure before year-end rebalancing, even when there is little fresh company-specific news.

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:32 ET — Regular session Verizon Communications Inc shares (VZ) edged up 0.1% to $40.53 in afternoon trading on Monday after the telecom operator said it will report fourth-quarter 2025 earnings on Jan. 30.

Wells Fargo stock dips in late trade as yields ease; Fed liquidity, earnings date in focus

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 15:25 ET — Regular session Wells Fargo & Company shares were down 0.6% at $94.66 on Monday afternoon, giving back ground after an early rise and underperforming their intraday high. The move matters because banks remain tightly linked to the interest-rate outlook heading into year-end. Even modest swings in yields can change expectations for what lenders earn on loans versus what they pay for deposits. Trading conditions are also thin in the final week of the year, which can exaggerate sector moves. That has left investors watching rates and liquidity gauges as closely as company

At 3:28 p.m. ET, the stock was down $3.04 from its previous close, after earlier hitting $234.98.
