After-hours trading in CAH on the NYSE runs from 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM ET on trading days, immediately after the regular session closes. Not every broker offers the full window, and liquidity thins sharply after about 6:30 PM ET.
An after-hours move that carries into the next session becomes an opening gap, and CAH's gap history is the best guide to what happens next: 0% of CAH gap-ups have fully filled, and 100% of gap-downs have filled over the past 5 years. Fill rates this high mean a large after-hours move is more often faded than extended.
CAH is expected to report earnings around Nov 5, 2026 before the open (estimated), with an estimated EPS of $2.95. Earnings are the most common cause of a large after-hours move, since most companies report after the close.
