U.S. equity markets are operating on regular business hours, with trading taking place between 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. ET.While Dec. 31 falls just ahead of the New Year’s Day holiday, it is not a market holiday for U.S. equities. Investors will have one last opportunity to rebalance portfolios, book tax-related trades, or adjust positioning before the start of 2026. That said, trading volumes on the final day of the year are often lighter than usual, which can occasionally amplify price moves.<img src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/koyfin_20251230_055519239_png_923d55e78d.webp" alt="koyfin_20251230_055519239.png"><h2 class="st-heading-2">How Did US Markets Perform In 2025?</h2>As the curtain falls on 2025, U.S. equities are wrapping up a year marked by resilience, volatility, and shifting expectations around interest rates.The S&amp;P 500, as tracked by the SPY ETF, delivered strong annual returns, in large part due to robust corporate profits and continued enthusiasm for artificial intelligence.

These next seven days, starting tomorrow, are higher more than 77% of times.

That’s the best possible mix for both equities and longer-duration assets,” he said.<h2 class="st-heading-2">What If Santa Fails To Show Up?</h2>But what happens when a Santa Claus rally fails to materialize? According to a report by Seeking Alpha citing Ari H. Wald, head of technical analysis at Oppenheimer, the subsequent one or two quarters tend to be below average for equities.“Since 1928, the S&amp;P 500 has averaged a 1% loss in the subsequent three months following a negative [Santa Claus rally] vs. an average 2.6% gain following a positive [one]. If Santa should fail to call, bears may come to Broad &amp; Wall,” Wald said in a recent note, according to the report.<h2 class="st-heading-2">Here’s How US Equities Have Fared Year-To-Date</h2><figure class="table"><table class="ck-table-resized" style=";"><colgroup><col style="width:50%;"><col style="width:50%;"></colgroup><tbody><tr><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">Index</td><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">Year-to-date change, as of Dec. 23, 2025</td></tr><tr><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">Dow Jones Industrial Average</td><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">13.86%</td></tr><tr><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">S&amp;P 500</td><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">17.48%</td></tr><tr><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">Nasdaq Composite</td><td style="border:1pt solid #000000;padding:5pt;vertical-align:top;">22.01%</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>Meanwhile, U.S. equities declined in Wednesday’s pre-market trade.

While Dow Jones futures were down by 0.08% at the time of writing, the S&P 500 futures gained 0.28%.

The S&amp;P 500 index surged past the 6,700 level for the first time, reaching a record high, as investors brushed aside concerns that the U.S. government shutdown would impact equities.At the time of writing, the S&amp;P 500 index was hovering at 6,703, up by 0.23% for the day. Analysts at Fitch Ratings stated that the government shutdown “does not have near-term implications” for the United States' credit rating, according to a&nbsp;<a class="st-link-external" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.wsj.com/livecoverage/stock-market-today-government-shutdown-10-01-2025/card/fitch-says-shutdown-has-no-rating-implications-for-now-alE07deY34CamL5LJEqe">report</a> by The Wall Street Journal.Weak jobs data raised the hopes of an interest rate cut later this month, after a report by ADP showed that private payrolls&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/private-payrolls-decline-32000-september/chCYdhBR3ak">declined</a> 32,000 in September, while Wall Street expected an addition of 45,000 jobs during the month.

He added that this could point to downside risks for equities, the U.S. dollar, and Treasury yields, according to the report.Earlier on Wednesday, Vice President JD Vance addressed reporters at the White House and warned that federal employees could face layoffs if the shutdown continues. “We don’t necessarily want to do it, but we’re going to do what we have to keep the American people’s essential services continuing to run,” he told reporters.&nbsp;However, when asked why the Trump administration is expecting layoffs when past shutdowns have typically resulted in furloughs, Vance said no final decisions had been made yet.White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed that layoffs could begin as soon as the next two days.At the time of writing, the&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/SPY">SPDR Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF Trust</a> (DIA), which tracks the Dow Jones index, was up 0.15%.
