Allstate rose 1.95% as property-and-casualty insurers moved higher while the S&P 500 fell 1.65%, the Nasdaq fell 2.68%, and the VIX moved above 20 (CBOE). The stock continued the defensive rotation already behind its earlier gains, with no new catalyst. Trading volume was below normal, so the move was driven by price rotation rather than unusual participation.
