Bitcoin price today slips under $88,000 as year-end trade thins; Coinbase, miners mixed

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 13:40 ET — Regular session Bitcoin slipped below $88,000 on Wednesday as trading remained thin into the end of the year and investors weighed the outlook for U.S. interest rates. The world’s largest cryptocurrency was last down 0.7% at $87,753. Ether, the second-largest token, was little changed, up 0.1% at $2,974.81. The move matters now because bitcoin is headed for its first annual loss since 2022 after a sharp pullback in risk appetite late in the year. Trump Media and Technology Group said it will distribute a new digital token to shareholders, a sign of
Robinhood stock slips as HOOD releases December trading snapshot and traders eye crypto softness

Robinhood stock slips as HOOD releases December trading snapshot and traders eye crypto softness

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 12:46 ET — Regular session Robinhood Markets, Inc. shares eased on Wednesday after the trading app published a late-December snapshot of customer activity that investors watch for clues about quarter-end momentum. The update matters because Robinhood’s results are sensitive to trading activity, especially in options and cryptocurrency, where small changes in volumes can move transaction-based revenue. With the year winding down, traders have been looking for signs that retail participation is holding up into quarter end, even as activity in digital assets has cooled from earlier peaks. Robinhood shares were down about 0.3% at $115.11

SoFi stock dips in premarket as thin year-end trading keeps investors cautious

NEW YORK, December 31, 2025, 08:33 ET — Premarket SoFi Technologies Inc (SOFI.O) shares were down about 0.7% at around $26.37 in premarket trading, MarketWatch data showed. (MarketWatch) The move comes on the final trading day of 2025, with U.S. markets shut on Thursday for New Year’s Day and volumes expected to remain light. (Reuters) That matters because thin liquidity can amplify day-to-day swings, especially in “high-beta” stocks — shares that tend to move more than the overall market. SoFi closed Tuesday at $26.56, down nearly 1% on the day, according to historical pricing data. (StockAnalysis) The stock has now
MercadoLibre stock closes higher as year-end trading thins; Fed minutes keep rates in focus

MercadoLibre stock closes higher as year-end trading thins; Fed minutes keep rates in focus

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 20:48 ET — Market closed MercadoLibre Inc (MELI) shares closed up 0.3% at $2,020.88 on Tuesday, after trading between $1,997.46 and $2,028.95. Volume was about 294,000 shares. The muted move mattered because liquidity has been thin into the year-end, and small shifts in rate expectations can swing the prices of higher-growth stocks. Investors often adjust what they are willing to pay for future earnings when interest rates move. That rate sensitivity stayed front and center after minutes from the Federal Reserve’s Dec. 9-10 meeting showed officials divided on how much more to cut in 2026.

Booking Holdings (BKNG) stock slips after Fed minutes; traders eye what’s next

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 19:36 ET — After-hours Booking Holdings shares ended Tuesday down 0.26% at $5,427.15 and eased 0.16% to $5,418.57 by 7:18 p.m. ET in after-hours trading, the session after the New York close. Trading in the stock itself was muted, with about 135,000 shares changing hands, roughly half its 65-day average volume. That kind of light tape can make small shifts in risk appetite show up faster in high-priced consumer names. The timing matters because investors are heading into the final U.S. trading session of the year with interest rates back in focus. Booking is often

T-Mobile stock is up today: TMUS holds steady as Fed minutes loom in thin year-end trade

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:45 ET — Regular session Shares of T-Mobile US, Inc. (TMUS) were up about 0.2% at $203.55 in midday trade on Tuesday. The stock has traded between $202.00 and $203.71 so far in the session. The modest move came as U.S. stocks hovered near flat in a holiday-truncated week, with communication services among the day’s stronger pockets and investors awaiting minutes from the Federal Reserve’s Dec. 9-10 meeting later in the day. “It’s just a healthy rebalancing of allocations more so than an emotionally driven sell-off,” said Mark Hackett, chief market strategist at Nationwide, referring

Uber stock ticks higher after COO option exercise filing as traders await Fed minutes

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:24 ET — Regular session Uber Technologies, Inc. shares rose 0.9% to $82.22 in midday trading on Tuesday, outperforming a slightly softer broader market in thin year-end volumes. The move matters because liquidity is light in the final sessions of the year, amplifying the impact of routine corporate disclosures and macro headlines on single stocks. Investors are also waiting for minutes from the Federal Reserve’s December meeting, a detailed account of policymakers’ rate discussion due later Tuesday. “I wouldn’t try to make too much out of anything that happens in a holiday-shortened week,” Art Hogan,
Lumentum stock rebounds today after Monday slide as year-end trading stays thin

Lumentum stock rebounds today after Monday slide as year-end trading stays thin

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 12:08 ET — Regular session Lumentum Holdings Inc (LITE.O) shares rose 1.3% to $377.59 in midday trading on Tuesday, paring part of the prior session’s slide. The stock traded between $370.00 and $380.32, with about 800,000 shares changing hands. The move comes as U.S. equities drifted in a narrow range in the final week of the year, with major index proxies little changed to lower. The SPDR S&P 500 ETF (SPY) was down about 0.1%, while the Nasdaq-100 tracker Invesco QQQ was nearly flat. That backdrop matters for Lumentum because thin holiday trading can exaggerate

Pattern Group stock (PTRN) jumps 4.6% into year-end as traders hunt a floor

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 05:56 ET — Premarket Pattern Group Inc. shares climbed 4.6% in the prior session, closing at $12.38 and setting the stock up for a closely watched open in thin year-end trade. The move lifted the company’s market value to about $2.18 billion, based on Monday’s close. (https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/ptrn/history/) (https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/ptrn/market-cap/) That matters now because the final week of the year often brings lighter liquidity — fewer orders in the market — which can amplify price swings, especially in newer listings. Pattern has been choppy since it joined Nasdaq in September. The stock’s bounce also came against a
Circle stock today: CRCL slips as year-end trading thins and prediction-market bets come into focus

Circle stock today: CRCL slips as year-end trading thins and prediction-market bets come into focus

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 20:41 ET — Market closed Circle Internet Group, Inc. shares ended down about 0.9% at $80.51 on Monday, after trading between $79.00 and $82.96 as volumes thinned in the final week of the year. The move matters because Circle is one of the most visible publicly traded plays on stablecoins — cryptocurrencies designed to hold a steady value, typically pegged to the U.S. dollar — and the stock has become sensitive to shifts in risk appetite and rates. Circle’s core earnings engine is reserve income, the interest generated on assets held against its USDC stablecoin.

Marvell stock slips today as chips cool into year-end; MRVL traders eye Fed minutes and CES

NEW YORK, December 29, 2025, 8:42 PM ET — Market closed Marvell Technology Inc (MRVL) shares fell 0.6% to $85.76 on Monday, with the Nasdaq-listed chipmaker trading between $84.21 and $86.09 as markets headed into the final trading days of the year. Marvell supplies data infrastructure semiconductor solutions spanning the data center core to the network edge, and also develops chips tailored to specific customer designs for artificial intelligence and other networking-heavy workloads. Reuters That mix leaves the stock sensitive to shifts in risk appetite around AI-linked hardware, especially when investors rebalance positions into year-end. Semiconductors were mixed on the

XRP slips below $1.90 as traders watch $2 ceiling and year-end crypto flows

NEW YORK, Dec 29, 2025, 5:05 PM ET — After-hours. XRP eased on Monday, trading near $1.85 and drifting lower after another attempt to push back above $1.90 faded. CoinMarketCap+1 The move matters now because XRP has been tracking broader crypto direction into the final days of the year, when thinner liquidity can exaggerate swings and force leveraged traders to cut positions quickly. The Economic Times Macro signals have also shaped the tape, with markets leaning toward U.S. rate cuts next year, a theme that has supported risk assets from equities to crypto, traders said.
