Technology Stocks Today: AI Leaders, Fed Minutes, and Year-End Rotation Set the Tone for Nasdaq Into Monday

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 1:10 p.m. ET — Market closed U.S. technology stocks head into the final three trading days of 2025 with a familiar tug-of-war: bullish momentum in the major indexes and AI-driven megacaps on one side, and renewed scrutiny of valuations and AI infrastructure spending on the other. With U.S. equity markets shut for the weekend, attention shifts to Sunday evening index futures and to the catalysts waiting in the holiday-thinned week ahead—most notably Federal Reserve meeting minutes and a handful of key economic releases. Stock index futures tied to the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 resume trading

Data Center Stocks Watch: Nvidia Headlines, Power-Grid Crunch, and Fed Minutes in Focus Before the Next Wall Street Session

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 1:03 p.m. ET — Market closed Data center stocks are heading into the final trading days of 2025 with a familiar set of tailwinds—and a growing list of real-world constraints investors can’t ignore. The AI buildout that helped power much of this year’s equity gains remains the dominant demand driver for everything from GPUs and networking gear to cooling systems and “four walls” colocation space. But as Wall Street heads into a holiday-shortened week, thin liquidity, year-end positioning, and the market’s next read on the Federal Reserve are likely to decide whether the sector starts

Space and Defense Stocks: RTX, Lockheed, Boeing, Rocket Lab in Focus as Geopolitics and Year-End Trading Set Up Monday’s Session

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:59 p.m. ET — Market closed U.S. stock exchanges are shut for the weekend, leaving space and defense investors to parse a dense batch of late-week headlines and year-end macro signals before trading resumes Monday morning. The New York Stock Exchange’s core trading session runs 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET, meaning the next real “price discovery” window for aerospace and defense names arrives with Monday’s open—likely in thin, end-of-year liquidity where headlines can move stocks faster than fundamentals. New York Stock Exchange+1 That thin-liquidity backdrop is important: Wall Street ended Friday’s post-Christmas session nearly

Quantum Computing Stocks: IonQ, Rigetti, D-Wave and QUBT Slide Into Year-End—What to Watch Before Monday’s Open

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:45 p.m. ET — Market closed (Weekend). Quantum computing stocks are heading into the final trading week of the year with a familiar mix of promise and turbulence—exactly the kind of setup that can amplify both opportunity and risk when liquidity is thin. In the most recent regular session (Friday), several of the best-known “pure-play” quantum names posted sharp declines even as the broader U.S. market largely drifted in quiet, post-holiday trade. IonQ (IONQ) finished at $46.00, down about 7.6%. Rigetti Computing (RGTI) closed at $22.38, down roughly 8.6%. D-Wave Quantum (QBTS) ended at $25.29,

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:46 p.m. ET — Market closed (weekend) Wall Street’s cash equity market is closed this Sunday, but Big Tech stocks are still the center of the conversation heading into the final week of 2025—especially as investors weigh record-high index levels against a growing debate over how quickly artificial intelligence spending will translate into durable profits. The backdrop is bullish on paper: the S&P 500 is hovering near a major psychological marker, and the Nasdaq has posted another strong year. But the tone beneath the surface is evolving.

With index futures set to reopen Sunday evening and year-end positioning in full swing, investors are preparing for a Monday session where electric-vehicle names could swing sharply on thin liquidity and fast-moving news flow.

With the S&P 500 hovering near record territory after a quiet, low-volume post-Christmas session, investors are heading into the final trading days of 2025 weighing two powerful—and conflicting—narratives: the continued buildout of AI infrastructure that keeps lifting chip and cloud leaders, and a growing drumbeat of skepticism about valuation, deal structures, and how the AI boom is being financed.

Bitcoin Price Today: BTC Holds Near $88,000 as U.S. Stock Market Closed; ETF Outflows and Holiday Liquidity Keep Traders on Watch

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:18 p.m. ET — U.S. stock market closed Bitcoin (BTC) traded around $87,856 on Sunday afternoon in New York, holding inside a tight band after a holiday week defined by thinning liquidity and renewed attention on U.S.-listed spot Bitcoin ETF flows. The world’s largest cryptocurrency posted an intraday high near $87,955 and a low around $87,418, underscoring how even modest order flow can move prices when many desks are lightly staffed late in the year.

For U.S. investors, the cash equity market is closed today for the weekend, with attention shifting to when index futures reopen later Sunday and how global cross-asset signals—oil, the U.S. dollar, and record-setting precious metals—set up Monday’s

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:15 p.m. ET — Market Closed (Weekend) Wall Street is closed Sunday, giving investors a brief pause after a sleepy post-Christmas session that still left the major U.S. stock indexes parked near record territory — and on track to finish 2025 with strong double-digit gains. The next real test arrives Monday, when the final three trading days of 2025 begin. With liquidity often thin at year-end, headlines can move markets more than usual — and traders will be watching for signs that the “Santa Claus rally” continues, as well as fresh clues on the Federal

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 12:19 p.m. ET — Market closed With U.S. stock exchanges shut for the weekend, investors are heading into the final three trading sessions of 2025 watching one big question: does the year-end bid extend into the “Santa Claus rally” window—or does thin holiday liquidity turn routine headlines into outsized moves for the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA)? The Dow ended the last regular session essentially flat, slipping 20.19 points (‑0.04%) to 48,710.97 on Friday, while the S&P 500 eased 0.03% to 6,929.94 and the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.09% to 23,593.10, according to Reuters.

(NYSE: V) heads into the final trading days of 2025 with U.S. markets shut for the weekend and investors weighing two familiar forces for mega-cap payment stocks: a year-end, low-liquidity tape and a steady stream of macro and regulatory headlines that can quickly reset sentiment when trading resumes Monday.
