CARR · PEAD → 0

Carrier Global reported Q3 2026 EPS of $0.87 on 2026-10-29, beating the $0.81 consensus by $0.06 (+7.4%).

Print-day reaction was -1.3% versus the prior close, as the stock sold off despite the EPS beat — a classic "buy the rumor, sell the news" dynamic. The overnight gap into T+1 extended the pressure, adding another -1.5% to the downside open. Over the following two trading days (T+1 through T+3), the stock drifted +3.2%, reversing the initial reaction and recovering most of the post-earnings loss. Cumulative abnormal return of +0.7% versus SPY.US leaves CARR in neutral PEAD territory — neither confirming nor reversing with enough force to warrant a directional read; holding window runs through 2027-01-26.
