Bank of Nova Scotia is trading at $97.23 (+5.40%) in pre-market, with no credible company-specific announcement identified on September 24, 2026, to explain the increase. - Scotiabank’s over $100 billion Canadian financing commitment was announced September 14 and appears stale rather than a new catalyst. - Broader financials are down 1.72% pre-market, diverging from the bank’s gain; sector or macro weakness does not explain the move.
