US Stock Market Today (Dec. 23, 2025): S&P 500 Near Record as Tech Rebound Holds, GDP and Consumer Confidence in Focus

U.S. stocks head into Tuesday, December 23, with the S&P 500 within striking distance of its recent record after Wall Street kicked off the holiday-shortened week with broad gains powered by a renewed tech rebound. The market’s tone is upbeat—but the calendar is doing its usual late-December trick: thin liquidity, compressed hours, and a cluster of economic reports that can still jolt prices even when many desks are half-staffed. Reuters On Monday’s close (reported early Tuesday), the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 227.79 points (0.47%) to 48,362.68, the S&P 500 added 43.99 points (0.64%) to 6,878.49, and the Nasdaq Composite

The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) is entering Tuesday, December 23, 2025, with a distinctly “Santa rally” mood—but with an asterisk: the market is about to digest a rare, post-shutdown catch‑up of major U.S. economic data that could reshape expectations for growth, inflation, and Federal Reserve policy heading into 2026. Reuters+1 That mix—thin holiday liquidity plus heavyweight macro numbers—often produces trading sessions where the Dow looks calm on the surface, but can jolt quickly as algorithms and human beings race to re-price the same handful of themes: consumer strength, corporate profits, interest rates, and the “soft landing vs. slowdown” debate.
