Cognizant is trading 4.37% up at $62.62, with no clear catalyst identified.
- It closed at $60.00 on September 11, 2026.
- Broader markets are weaker, with Nasdaq futures down 1.71%, so market sentiment does not explain the gain.
- A scheduled September 14 settlement hearing involves a proposed $5.5 million payment to the company; no fresh announcement explicitly links it or other news to the pre-market move.
