🟢 Hershey is trading 7.4% up in after-hours trading; reported late-session jump lacks independent confirmation

Hershey is trading at $172.90, up 7.38%, with no verified October 5 after-hours company announcement explaining the move.

• The international leadership change was announced October 1, not during this after-hours session.
• Nasdaq rose 2.69% and the S&P 500 gained 0.67%; this provides context but does not establish the cause.
• Available reporting described shares as little changed after hours earlier on October 5, so the reported late-session jump lacks independent confirmation.
