Looking ahead to today, Banco Santander has no major earnings release or annual meeting explicitly scheduled for September 21, 2026 in the latest public calendars, but recent corporate actions still frame sentiment. As TradingView summarized, Banco Santander's EUR 558.9 million share buyback completed between September 10 and September 16, 2026 and the court decision overturning the 677 million AXA payout remain fresh factors for investors as the US session on September 21, 2026 approaches.
