S&amp;P 500 futures and Nasdaq 100 futures climbed 0.2% and 0.3%, respectively. <\/p>\n<p>Wall Street is coming off a mixed week for the major averages. A late-week surge in tech stocks helped lift the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq Composite to their third winning week in four, up 0.1% and 0.5%, respectively. The 30-stock Dow, which has outperformed this month, fell 0.7%, snapping a three-week winning streak.<\/p>\n<p>Artificial intelligence stocks enjoyed a resurgence last week after their recent underperformance. Shares of Oracle, a major laggard, jumped after TikTok agreed to sell its U.S. operations to a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2025\/12\/18\/tik-tok-us-sale-china.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">joint venture<\/a> that includes the software giant and private-equity firm Silver Lake. Nvidia also made a comeback. <\/p>\n<p>However, investors are watching to see whether AI stocks can retain their leadership heading into the year-end, especially as investors rotate into cheaper parts of the market amid concerns about lofty tech valuations. There&#8217;s also doubt about whether a &#8220;Santa Claus rally&#8221; will materialize, as the S&amp;P 500 struggles to hold a key technical level.  <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My view a couple of weeks ago was an end of year grind,&#8221; said Justin Bergner, portfolio manager at Gabelli Funds. &#8220;And I think that&#8217;s become an end of year churn.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>The New York Stock Exchange will close early on Wednesday at 1 p.m. ET on Christmas Eve and will be closed Thursday for Christmas Day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Traders work on the floor at the New York Stock Exchange in New York City, U.S., Dec. 17,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":463195,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[133,64,81,135,134,67,132,68],"class_list":{"0":"post-463194","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-business","8":"tag-breaking-news-markets","9":"tag-business","10":"tag-business-news","11":"tag-markets","12":"tag-stock-markets","13":"tag-united-states","14":"tag-unitedstates","15":"tag-us"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/115760254500973250","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463194","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=463194"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463194\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/463195"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=463194"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=463194"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=463194"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
