Shares of Capital One Financial Corporation climbed 1% to $231.01 on Wednesday, recovering some losses from the previous day ahead of the company’s earnings release scheduled for Thursday.

New York, Jan 16, 2026, 19:39 EST — After-hours trading Shares of Capital One Financial Corporation (COF) ticked up 0.9% to $239.14 in after-hours trading Friday.

Capital One stock rises as traders weigh US credit-card rate cap risk ahead of earnings

New York, Jan 15, 2026, 12:31 PM ET — Trading in the regular session.

New York, Jan 14, 2026, 18:48 ET — After-hours Shares of Capital One Financial Corporation climbed 1.3% to $234.42 in after-hours trading Wednesday, bouncing back after a choppy start to the week for card issuers.

Capital One stock drops again as Trump’s credit-card rate-cap talk shadows lenders

NEW YORK, Jan 14, 2026, 12:12 ET — During the regular session Shares of Capital One Financial Corp dropped roughly 2.4% to $225.95 on Wednesday, lagging behind as investors grew cautious amid Washington’s discussions on limiting credit-card interest rates. The pressure stems from President Donald Trump’s proposal to cap credit-card interest rates at 10% for one year—a move that could severely dent a key profit source for issuers if enacted. Credit-card rates were running around 20.97% in November, based on the Federal Reserve’s consumer credit report referenced by analysts. (Reuters) The timing couldn’t be more awkward.
