What happened

Dominion Energy (D) fell 0.8% on October 7, 2026, after it scheduled its third-quarter earnings call for October 30, 2026. The company said in a Business Wire notice that the live webcast, slides and other financial information would be available on its investor site. The session was an ordinary session for the stock; that means the price change should not be presented as caused by the announcement, but the call and usual earnings-season updates were the main developments around the company that day.

Closing price over the last 30 trading sessions. On October 7, 2026, D closed at $61.53, down 0.8% on the day and 8.0% lower than 30 sessions earlier.

How big was the move

The stock closed at $61.53 after it fell 0.8%. Trading volume was 0.9 times its 20-day average, and the move was 0.8 times a typical daily move for this stock. The S&P 500 fell 0.2% on the day and the utilities sector median fell 0.3%. Over the last five sessions, Dominion Energy rose 1.7% while the S&P 500 rose 2.0%, leaving the stock 0.4 percentage points worse than the sector median on the day. The stock’s market sensitivity, described by a beta of 0.13, means the stock tends to move less than the market.

Each bar is one day's price change; the outlined bar is October 7, 2026. A typical daily move over the past year was 1.3%, so the latest move equals 0.6 times that. Moves outside the dashed lines (about 2.6%) are unusual.
