Salesforce stock holds up as year-end tech pullback hits AI bellwethers

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 12:47 ET — Regular session Salesforce shares were little changed in midday trading on Monday, holding near $266 as technology and AI-linked stocks pulled back in the final week of 2025.

BitMine stock nudges up after firm says ether holdings topped 4.1 million ahead of shareholder vote

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 11:28 ET — Regular session Shares of BitMine Immersion Technologies Inc rose in late morning trading on Monday after the company said its ether holdings climbed above 4.1 million tokens and it stepped up outreach ahead of a January shareholder vote.

Ambev ADRs jump 2.5% as Brazil inflation data and dividend payout come into view

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 03:00 ET — Market closed. Ambev S.A.’s U.S.-listed shares ended Friday up 2.5% at $2.43, extending a late-December rebound ahead of a batch of Brazil data and a scheduled cash payout this week.

Philip Morris stock dips as ex-dividend reset hits; eyes on year-end data next

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 22:06 ET — Market closed Philip Morris International shares last closed down 1% at $161.05 on Friday, a move that largely reflected the stock trading ex-dividend for its quarterly payout. Nasdaq+1 The ex-dividend date is the first day a stock trades without the right to the next dividend; buyers after that date do not receive the upcoming payment. Shares often fall by roughly the dividend amount on that reset, which can make the day’s headline move look bigger than the underlying trading.

PepsiCo stock holds near $144 as leadership handoff hits and year-end data looms

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 21:27 ET — Market closed PepsiCo shares ended slightly higher on Friday, last closing at $143.78, as investors moved through a muted post-Christmas session and looked ahead to a leadership handoff in the company’s North America business this weekend. SEC+1 The timing matters because U.S. stocks are in the final stretch of 2025, when thin holiday trading and year-end positioning can magnify small moves. The period also overlaps the so-called “Santa Claus rally,” a seasonal window covering the last five trading days of the year and the first two of the next. Reuters For PepsiCo,

Walmart stock sits near $112 heading into Fed-minutes week and thin year-end trading

NEW YORK, December 28, 2025, 20:37 ET — Market closed. Walmart Inc (WMT) shares last ended up 0.1% at $111.74 on Friday, after a muted post-Christmas session that left the stock stuck near recent lows. The backdrop matters now because the final trading days of the year often bring lighter volumes, making price swings easier to exaggerate in large, widely held names like Walmart.
