CNA Financial (CNA) reported earnings 30 days ago. What's next for the stock?

CNA Financial reported a disappointing Q1 2026, with combined ratios exceeding 100% across specialty and commercial lines. Specialty lines, historically profitable, suffered from reserve strengthening and higher claims in professional liability, raising concerns about underwriting discipline. Investment income offset underwriting losses, but reliance on portfolio returns underscores the need for remediation in core insurance operations.

CNA's Q1 earnings miss estimates as higher claims and a weaker combined ratio pressure underwriting, offsetting modest premium and investment income gains.
