Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) Outlook: All Share Near Record Highs as Precious Metals Surge Sets Up Monday Reopen

Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) Outlook: All Share Near Record Highs as Precious Metals Surge Sets Up Monday Reopen

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:31 a.m. ET — Market closed The Johannesburg Stock Exchange (JSE) heads into the final trading stretch of 2025 with a familiar year-end cocktail: holiday-thinned liquidity, a powerful precious-metals rally, and a softer U.S. dollar backdrop that tends to favor emerging-market assets and commodity-heavy equity markets like South Africa’s. With both U.S. markets and the JSE shut on Sunday, investors are using the quiet window to position for Monday’s reopen—especially after gold, platinum, and silver pushed deeper into record territory late last week, a move with outsized implications for JSE heavyweight miners and the rand-linked

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:29 a.m. ET — Market closed Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO) heads into the final trading week of 2025 with Wall Street still debating a familiar trade-off: explosive AI infrastructure demand versus the margin pressure that can come with lower-margin “systems” revenue and a richer AI mix.

SIX Swiss Exchange Today: Swiss Stocks Hold Near Record High as Markets Reopen After the Holiday Break — What Investors Need to Watch

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:28 a.m. ET — Market closed Zurich’s SIX Swiss Exchange is dark today — as it is every Sunday — but “closed” doesn’t mean “quiet.” With the Swiss market heading into one of its first full sessions since the Christmas shutdown, investors are using the weekend to game out a familiar year-end problem: how much of the recent rally is real conviction, and how much is thin liquidity plus seasonal optimism.

NEW YORK, Dec. 28, 2025, 9:33 a.m. ET — Market closed Singapore Exchange (SGX) heads into the final trading days of 2025 with a familiar year-end cocktail: thinner liquidity, elevated sensitivity to global rate expectations, and a steady drumbeat of positioning into the new year. With U.S. stock markets closed for the weekend, attention shifts to Asia’s Monday open—where Singapore investors will be balancing strong domestic manufacturing signals against a global macro backdrop that remains dominated by the Federal Reserve’s next move.

After a soft finish on Friday, the Nifty 50 is still hovering near record territory, and the next session’s tone is likely to be set by a familiar year-end cocktail: thin liquidity, foreign flows, macroeconomic data releases, and a calendar that’s about to flip to 2026.
