Wall Street Anticipates Mega Tech Earnings in Upcoming Week

On Thursday, the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 experienced gains, driven by Tesla’s positive earnings forecast and a decline in Treasury yields from a three-month peak. Despite declines from some corporate results, these factors buoyed market sentiment.

(NASDAQ:TSLA)Tesla shares surged by 21.9%, poised to increase its market capitalization by over $140 billion. This followed the company’s robust third-quarter profits and a surprising prediction of 20% to 30% sales growth next year.

The Consumer Discretionary sector benefited from Tesla’s performance, rising by 3.24%. Senior investment strategist Charlie Ripley of Allianz Investment Management described Tesla’s results as exceptional.

Although Wall Street indexes rose, tracking positive earnings from Tesla, they were still affected by losses incurred during the week. Persistent concerns surrounding the upcoming presidential election and expectations of slower rate cuts contributed to this.

Furthermore, fears of deteriorating geopolitical conditions in the Middle East, particularly with Israel preparing a strike against Iran, dampened risk appetite. 

The third quarter earnings season will reach its zenith next week, as five prominent tech giants, collectively known as the “Magnificent Seven,” are slated to disclose their financial results.

Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ: GOOGL) will initiate the reporting cycle on Tuesday, followed closely by Meta Platforms Inc (NASDAQ: META) and Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT) on Wednesday. The week’s lineup will culminate with Apple Inc (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN) announcing their earnings on Thursday.

These five companies hold a significant portion of the overall market capitalization on Wall Street. Therefore, their earnings are anticipated to serve as a bellwether for the broader market’s performance. Particular attention will be paid to the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) as a potential major earnings driver, considering the substantial capital expenditures being invested in this rapidly expanding sector.
