Top Stocks to Buy Today (Dec. 24, 2025): Nvidia, Amazon, Meta, Reddit, Rocket Lab and More as the S&P 500 Nears 7,000

The setup comes with one important wrinkle for investors: today is a shortened session, with the NYSE and Nasdaq closing at 1:00 p.m. ET. New York Stock Exchange+2NASDAQ Trader+2 That early close matters because holiday trading tends to amplify two things at once: price sensitivity (moves can look bigger in thin liquidity) and headline-driven volatility (single notes or

U.S. stock investors are waking up to a market that suddenly feels a lot less “easy.” After Wednesday’s sharp pullback—driven largely by renewed anxiety over how the AI boom gets financed—today’s pre-market setup (Dec. 18, 2025) looks like a classic stock-picker’s tape: big sector dispersion, heavyweight tech volatility, energy strength tied to geopolitics, and a busy earnings slate that can reset narratives in a single conference call. Reuters This article highlights 10 top stocks to buy today—meaning: high-conviction stocks to consider now, backed by today’s (Dec. 18) news, forecasts, and analyst analysis—plus the key catalysts to watch over the next

Updated: 5:00 AM EST (10:00 GMT), Thursday, December 18, 2025 Global equities are starting December 18 on an uneasy footing, with investors reassessing the durability of the AI-fueled rally just as a dense run of central bank decisions and a closely watched U.S. inflation report approach. Overnight, a tech-heavy retreat in the U.S. reverberated across Asia, while early European trading stayed muted with rate decisions due from the Bank of England and the European Central Bank (among others). In U.S. premarket trading, Micron’s strong outlook is helping stabilize sentiment, but markets remain tightly focused on inflation data and policy signals

PepsiCo Stock (PEP): What to Know Before the US Market Opens on Dec. 15, 2025

PepsiCo, Inc. (NASDAQ: PEP) heads into Monday’s session (Dec. 15, 2025; US markets open 9:30 a.m. ET) with investors focused less on “headline growth” and more on whether the company can re-accelerate North America momentum—and do it without sacrificing margins. The near-term backdrop is dominated by one theme: shareholder activism turning into an operating playbook. In just the past two weeks, PepsiCo has moved from reports of settlement talks with activist investor Elliott to laying out a company-backed (and Elliott-supported) set of actions—price investments, portfolio simplification, supply chain and go-to-market review, and cost reductions—alongside preliminary 2026 financial targets.

Updated: December 14, 2025 US-listed EV and clean energy leaders enter the new week with a rare mix of tailwinds and tripwires: a fresh Federal Reserve rate cut that should support long-duration growth stocks, a catch-up “data deluge” after the fall government shutdown, and a policy backdrop that’s now the single biggest swing factor for renewables and EV demand. The story of Dec. 8–14 wasn’t just about individual tickers—it was about the new hierarchy of catalysts: (1) US demand signals after the EV tax-credit reset, (2) whether Big Tech’s power appetite accelerates clean power buildouts or pulls capital toward gas
