    Question

    Dow Rises 1.6% Ahead of Q3 Results Projecting EPS Rebound to $0.70

    Direct answer

    Dow Inc. gained 1.6% to close at $28.65 during a session in which the S&P 500 declined 0.76%. The materials producer has experienced a 6.5% decline over the trailing month but is seeing positioning support ahead of scheduled Q3 reporting on October 22, 2026. Consensus projections anticipate Q3 revenue of $11.3 billion, representing a 13.28% year-over-year gain, with earnings per share expected to reach $0.70 compared to depressed prior-year comparisons. Traders are evaluating whether pricing power in base chemicals is establishing a durable cyclical trough.
