September 18, 2026 in numbers
Halliburton Inc. (ISIN US4062161017, NYSE: HAL) finished the September 18, 2026 session at USD 33.64, down from a previous close of USD 34.03, which represents a loss of 1.15 percent for the day per NYSE data from Yahoo Finance. The shares traded in a tight intraday range between a low of USD 33.58 and a high of USD 33.96, with total volume reported at 18,581,814 shares, notably above the recent average volume of 11,575,955 shares according to the same quote overview. The current close sits within a 52-week range of USD 21.46 to USD 43.59, leaving the stock appreciably below its 52-week high while still well above the 52-week low, based on the latest summary figures presented with the quote data.
Measured against this 52-week span, the September 18, 2026 close places Halliburton shares roughly USD 10 below the 52-week peak and about USD 12 above the 52-week trough, underlining a mid-range position in the recent trading history. The elevated trading volume on September 18, 2026 contrasted with the average activity level and indicates that investor participation was stronger than usual during that session. In the broader context, the stock’s modest one-day loss came as the shares continued to trade well inside their established 52-week corridor, suggesting that the move was contained within the prevailing volatility range rather than marking a test of either extreme.
Dividend timetable today
Today, September 21, 2026, Halliburton faces investor attention primarily because the company’s next quarterly dividend payment of USD 0.17 per share is scheduled for September 23, 2026 for holders of record as of the recent ex-dividend date on September 2, 2026, according to the dividend calendar provided by eToro. With the payment date now approaching, dividend-focused investors may reassess their positioning in the stock ahead of the open today, even though the price has already adjusted for the ex-dividend date earlier in the month. More broadly, the upcoming cash distribution supports ongoing income expectations from the shares as Halliburton heads into today’s US trading session.
