Focus: US
Market Close: Tue, 23 December 2025
Daily Insights
US stock markets rose in a low-volume session ahead of the holidays, marking the fourth straight day of gains. The S&P 500 hit a new record closing high, driven by strength in energy and tech stocks.
Stronger-than-expected third-quarter GDP data (annualized growth revised to 4.3%, the fastest in two years, fueled by consumer spending and exports) supported sentiment, though it slightly reduced expectations for near-term Fed rate cuts.
Consumer confidence fell for the fifth straight month to 89.1 in December, reflecting job and income concerns, but this had limited impact amid holiday-thinned trading.
Pre-holiday caution kept volumes light, with markets set for an early close on Christmas Eve (December 24) and full closure on Christmas Day.
Overall, the session reflected optimism for a year-end "Santa Claus rally," with major indexes poised for strong 2025 finishes despite narrow breadth.
