Today on NYSE Live | Cape Canaveral, Fla.–Based Starfighters Space Rings Bell to Celebrate Listing

The NYSE Live broadcast opened with a market overview, highlighting weaker-than-expected Q4 2025 real GDP growth at 1.4% and a December PCE inflation rate of 2.9% year‑over‑year. Analysts linked the GDP miss to a government shutdown drag and noted core private‑sector growth near 2.4%, while inflation remains above the Fed’s target, setting the tone for monetary‑policy expectations. Chief economist Joe Bruceus emphasized that core GDP growth outpaces the long‑run trend and that rising core inflation makes near‑term rate cuts unlikely, even with a potential new Fed chair in mid‑year. Meanwhile, Starfighters Space celebrated its NYSE American listing by ringing the opening bell, and soccer icon Cristiano Ronaldo injected $7.5 million into Herbal Life’s Protocol health platform, propelling the stock up more than 18% after earnings showed 6.5% quarterly growth and 2026 guidance of 1‑6% net‑sales expansion. John D. Simone, Herbal Life’s CFO, described the Protocol technology as a personalized supplement solution leveraging AI and biometrics, positioning the company to benefit from the growing health‑wellness market and complement GLP‑1 therapies. Cadillac’s CEO also previewed the brand’s entry into the 2026 Formula 1 season, underscoring a broader push by legacy manufacturers into high‑visibility motorsport. For investors, the data suggest a continued accommodative financial environment but limited upside from rate cuts, while growth opportunities emerge in space‑tech listings, health‑tech personalization, and automotive branding through F1. The launch of six new ETFs further expands passive‑investment options, reinforcing the NYSE’s role as a catalyst for capital allocation.
