NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:18 ET — Market closed. Oracle Corp (ORCL.N) shares fell 1.17% to $194.91 on Wednesday, tracking a dip in U.S. stocks as 2025’s final session ended.

Netflix stock in focus as record NFL Christmas streams land ahead of key earnings

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 10:10 ET — Market closed. Netflix shares will get their first chance to react on Friday after the streaming company said its Christmas Day National Football League broadcasts set U.S. viewership records, underscoring its push into live programming and advertising. https://www.reuters.com/business/media-telecom/netflix-christmas-day-nfl-streams-set-us-viewership-records-2025-12-31/ Why this matters now: live sports has become a rare appointment-viewing draw that can command higher advertising rates, helping streamers sell ads and keep subscribers engaged when churn risk rises.

National Stock Exchange of India stock today: Nifty ends flat as cigarette tax slams ITC, autos steady the market

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 09:47 ET — Market closed India’s Nifty 50 ended little changed on the National Stock Exchange of India (NSE) on Thursday, as auto gains offset a sharp selloff in cigarette makers after New Delhi raised taxes on cigarettes.

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 09:45 ET — Market closed Petrobras’ preferred shares (PETR4.SA) last closed up 0.29% at 30.82 reais after a key union accepted a counteroffer from the state-run oil company and suspended a strike launched earlier in December, easing fears of operational disruption.
