Icahn Enterprises (IEP) stock ends 2025 with a pop — here’s what investors are watching next

NEW YORK, January 1, 2026, 03:09 ET — Market closed Icahn Enterprises’ depositary units last climbed 3.4% in the final trading session of 2025, bucking a broader year-end slide in U.S. stocks. The units settled at $7.55 on Wednesday. MarketWatch The move matters because liquidity is thin around year-end, and investors are repositioning into the first full session of 2026 after markets shut for New Year’s Day. That can amplify swings in smaller, higher-yield names. MarketWatch+2New York Stock Exchange+2 Attention has also centered on a recent disclosure tied to Icahn Enterprises’ quarterly distribution.

Snowflake (SNOW) stock slips under $220 into year-end close as insider sale filings surface

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:17 ET — Market closed Snowflake Inc. (SNOW) shares fell 1.2% on Wednesday to $219.36, leaving the stock near the low end of the day’s $218.70-$222.35 range in the final U.S. session of 2025. The move matters because Snowflake sits in a high-growth pocket of software where valuations tend to swing with rate expectations and liquidity. Year-end trading can exaggerate those moves as funds rebalance and investors trim positions. Company-specific headlines were limited, but a cluster of new insider filings put share sales and transfers back on traders’ screens. Those disclosures can draw scrutiny even

The stock was down 0.3% at $225.88 in after-hours trading.

Wells Fargo stock ends 2025 lower as banks slip; WFC earnings and key US data ahead

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:18 ET — Market closed. Shares of Wells Fargo & Co (WFC) fell 1.18% to close at $93.20 on Wednesday, extending a four-session slide into the last trading day of 2025. Volume was light at about 7.6 million shares, and the stock finished about 2.8% below its 52-week high of $95.85.

KLA stock slides 2% in year-end trade as chip-equipment names fade; what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:12 ET — Market closed. KLA Corp shares (KLAC) fell 2.3% to $1,215.08 on Wednesday, tracking a pullback in semiconductor equipment stocks in thin year-end trading. The move matters because KLA is widely watched as a read-through on chipmakers’ spending, and the sector has been sensitive to interest-rate swings. Higher yields can pressure long-duration growth stocks — companies whose valuations lean heavily on future earnings. Reuters Treasury yields moved higher after new U.S. jobless claims unexpectedly fell, reinforcing a “higher-for-longer” rates debate heading into 2026. Initial claims dropped by 16,000 to 199,000 for the week

Applied Materials stock drops again as China’s “50% local tools” push weighs on AMAT

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:07 ET — Market closed Applied Materials shares fell 1.1% to $256.99 on Wednesday, extending a two-day slide into the year’s final session as chip-equipment stocks tracked policy-driven headlines out of China. China is requiring chipmakers to use at least 50% domestically made equipment for any new semiconductor manufacturing capacity, Reuters reported, a step that would steer orders toward local suppliers and away from foreign toolmakers. The policy is not publicly documented and is being enforced through state approval processes and procurement tenders, with officials pushing for levels above 50% and an eventual goal of

Oklo stock ends 2025 near $72: what’s driving OKLO and what investors watch next

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:05 ET — Market closed Oklo Inc. shares were last up about 0.2% at $71.76 on Wednesday after the U.S. market close, capping a muted year-end session for the nuclear start-up. The near-flat finish matters because Oklo’s stock has been driven less by current earnings and more by expectations for when it can license and deploy its first reactors. That puts investors’ attention on regulatory timelines and how the company funds its buildout. Oklo+1 Oklo is developing what it calls the Aurora “powerhouse,” part of a wave of so-called small modular reactors (SMRs) — smaller

The decline came as Wall Street ended 2025’s final session lower in holiday-thin trade, with the Nasdaq down 0.76% and the S&P 500 off 0.74%, Reuters reported. “It’s perfectly fine in any bull market to have moments of cost,” said Giuseppe Sette, co-founder and president of Reflexivity, pointing to profit-taking when liquidity was low. Reuters The year-end drift matters because the market’s gains have been driven by the artificial intelligence trade,

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 21:11 ET — Market closed Caterpillar Inc shares slipped about 0.8% on Wednesday to close at $572.87, as U.S. stocks ended the year’s final session lower. MarketWatch+1 The move matters because Caterpillar is widely treated as a read-through on capital spending, from construction equipment to mining and energy projects. With 2026 starting amid shifting rate expectations and trade uncertainty, investors are using late-year price action as a quick gauge of risk appetite.
