| 2 | Stripe will not buy PayPal. Gap replaces Old Navy CEO
↗️ Workday (WDAY) +1%. The provider of enterprise cloud applications reported better‑than‑expected results, but quarterly subscription revenue guidance of $2.515 billion (up 12%) points to modest deceleration.
↘️ Autodesk (ADSK) -4%. The design and engineering software maker beat revenue and EPS expectations. However, full‑year EPS guidance came in slightly below estimates.
↘️ Rubrik (RBRK) -6%. The cloud security company beat expectations and raised its guidance. Apparently, investors are ready to take profits at current levels, and the "buy the rumor, sell the news" dynamic played out.
↘️ Marvell Technology (MRVL) -7%. The chipmaker reported slightly better‑than‑expected results, but without any major surprises. The company now expects fiscal 2027 revenue growth of roughly 45% to $12 billion, up from the previous guidance of $11.5 billion. Fiscal 2028 revenue is expected at $18 billion, versus the prior forecast of $16.5 billion.
↗️ Gap (GAP) +16%. The apparel retailer appointed seasoned industry executive Michael Francis as the new CEO of Old Navy, its largest brand, in an effort to turn around the struggling division. The decision came as the company beat quarterly profit estimates thanks to improved pricing. Gap also raised its full‑year profit guidance, partly driven by strong results from the Gap brand itself.
↗️ Affirm Holdings (AFRM) +12%. The "buy now, pay later" platform delivered a stellar EPS result of $4.62, far exceeding the analyst consensus of $0.85, and also issued strong next‑quarter revenue guidance.
↘️ SentinelOne (S) -3%. The cybersecurity company gave disappointing quarterly and annual profit guidance, overshadowing better‑than‑expected revenue and margin improvement.
↗️ Solstice Advanced Materials (SOLS) +14%, Element Solutions (ESI) +1%. Solstice Advanced Materials terminated its merger agreement with Element Solutions and announced a $500 million buyback.
↘️ PayPal (PYPL) -14%. Bloomberg reported that fintech company Stripe and private investment firm Advent International have withdrawn their bid to acquire the payments giant.
↗️ Elastic (ESTC) +23%. A developer of software for data collection, storage, search, analysis, and visualization. The company beat expectations and gave an optimistic outlook. | 2 210 |
| 3 | CrowdStrike and Okta posted strong results. Trian Fund will not buy Wendy's
↗️ Synopsys (SNPS) +1%. The leader in semiconductor design automation beat EPS expectations and raised its full‑year guidance. The stock initially fell 6–7% after the report but moved into positive territory in pre‑market trading.
↗️ Salesforce (CRM) +10%. The enterprise CRM software provider reported better‑than‑expected results. The key growth driver was demand for its AI‑powered solutions.
↗️ CrowdStrike (CRWD) +9%. The cybersecurity company reported a record quarter and raised its full‑year 2027 revenue guidance to a range of $5.99–$6.01 billion.
↗️ Okta (OKTA) +17%. Another cybersecurity company reported above‑expectation results and now expects revenue growth of 10‑11% for the year, above analyst estimates.
↘️ HP (HPQ) -12%. Results beat forecasts, but investors remain concerned about potential margin pressure due to a sharp rise in memory chip and display panel prices in the personal systems and printing segments.
↗️ Nutanix (NTNX) +6%. The cloud computing company reported above consensus. Next‑quarter revenue guidance matched analyst expectations.
↗️ Veeva Systems (VEEV) +8%. The company develops cloud software and analytics for the pharmaceutical, biotech, and medical industries. The report beat consensus, and the company raised its full‑year guidance thanks to record CRM and Falcon AI performance. Commercial subscriptions grew 13% year‑over‑year. Jefferies analysts raised their price target from $250 to $295 after the report, maintaining a "Buy" rating.
↗️ Dollar General (DG) +7%. The discount retailer beat forecasts, raised its full‑year profit guidance, and announced an AI partnership with RELEX Solutions. The deal will enable the deployment of an AI‑powered forecasting, replenishment, and distribution platform across all Dollar General's North American operations.
🪙 Bitcoin again broke above $80,000 but has not yet held above that level. BTC is currently trading at $79,500.
↘️ Build‑A‑Bear Workshop (BBW) -13%. The company sells stuffed animals and offers an interactive make‑your‑own experience. Revenue missed consensus. Management lowered its full‑year revenue expectations for the second time this year — to $500–$525 million, down from $530–$550 million. The company also announced the departure of its Chief Development Officer, David Henderson.
↘️ Wendy's (WEN) -14%. Reuters reported that Nelson Peltz's Trian Fund Management has walked away from a potential buyout of the burger chain.
↗️ Amkor Technology (AMKR) +8%. A provider of semiconductor packaging and testing services. BofA Securities assigned the stock a "Buy" rating with a $70 price target, implying approximately 45% upside. The bank's analysts forecast EPS growth from $1.51 in 2025 to $3.41 by 2028 (a CAGR of about 31%), driven by higher capacity utilization and a shift toward a higher‑margin product mix. | 2 214 |
| 4 | Nvidia delivered
🔘 Revenue: $96.2 billion vs. $92.2 billion forecast (+106% YoY), of which $89 billion came from data centers.
🔘 EPS: $2.22 vs. $2.10 (+120% YoY).
💼 Nvidia will acquire Hugging Face, the open‑source AI model repository, for $12.9 billion.
The company forecast $108 billion in revenue for the next quarter, even if Chinese data centers contribute zero revenue. At that run rate, Nvidia's annual sales would surpass Apple and Google, trailing only retail giant Amazon.
Jensen Huang commented: "AI has reached its inflection point. It’s doing useful work. Its tokens are productive and profitable. Now, compute is revenue." He believes the risk associated with rising AI investments remains "low."
Vera Rubin is now in full production, with racks already running at partner sites. "The AI infrastructure buildout is at full steam. Vera Rubin, now in full production, was built to power exactly this moment," the CEO said.
Stocks rose 5% after the report. | 2 217 |
| 5 | What to get done before summer ends
Time to down that last iced latte. September doesn’t favor bulls — it’s the only month with a consistently negative average return over the past 98 years (around −1.2%). The index fell in roughly 55% of Septembers, and nine of the 40 largest monthly S&P 500 declines occurred in September.
After Labor Day, which falls on September 7 this year, trading volumes usually pick up, funds begin rebalancing, and volatility increases.
What to get done before it starts:
♦ trade the Nvidia earnings report (out today after market close);
♦ review your portfolio;
♦ check your plan, close positions that were opened for a couple of days back in July;
♦ update your Favorites by adding our top 10 stocks for the second half of the year;
♦and stop calling averaging down a “strategic accumulation.”
The next few weeks will be eventful:
🔘 Today, August 26, GDP, PCE, and Nvidia earnings.
🔘 August 27–29 — the annual Jackson Hole symposium.
🔘 September 4 — the US jobs report.
🔘 September 10-11 — PPI and CPI.
🔘 September 15–16 — the Fed meeting.

| 6 | Intuit revenue slowed. Semtech nearly doubled data center revenue year‑over‑year
↘️ Intuit (INTU) -10%. Earnings per share and revenue beat expectations, but the full‑year revenue guidance disappointed: the range of $23.28–$23.51 billion came in below the consensus of $23.72 billion. Expected growth slowed to 9–10% compared to 14% in 2026. The company attributed the slowdown to weak Mailchimp sales, continued declines in desktop product sales, and lower average revenue per TurboTax customer due to changes aimed at attracting more users. Leading Wall Street banks downgraded Intuit to "Neutral" on Wednesday, citing deteriorating growth outlook and signs that competitive pressure is spreading beyond TurboTax.
↘️ Zoom Communications (ZM) -6%. Revenue grew thanks to strong enterprise business growth, but quarterly profit guidance came in below analyst expectations.
↘️ nCino (NCNO) -7%. The banking software developer beat revenue estimates, but investors reacted negatively to modest quarterly revenue guidance of $161.25–$163.25 million. The market is concerned about lengthening sales cycles among regional bank clients.
↗️ Box (BOX) +2%. A cloud content management and file storage platform. Box reported slightly better‑than‑expected EPS and revenue and raised its full‑year revenue guidance, driven by demand for Enterprise Advanced and AI solutions.
↘️ Spyre Therapeutics (SYRE) -10%. The biotech company reported that its drug candidate for rheumatoid arthritis did not meet the internal efficacy threshold to advance as a monotherapy.
↗️ Semtech (SMTC) +4%. The semiconductor supplier reported above‑expectation results, driven by rapid growth in the data center networking equipment segment, where revenue surged 91% year‑over‑year. Quarterly guidance also significantly exceeded consensus.
↗️ J.M. Smucker (SJM) +4%. The packaged food manufacturer reported results well above expectations and raised its full‑year profit guidance.
↘️ Bath & Body Works (BBWI) -3%. The personal care and home fragrance retailer reported EPS and revenue above expectations, but quarterly profit guidance came in below consensus.
↗️ Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF) +9%. The casual apparel, footwear, and accessories retailer reported EPS and revenue that beat analyst expectations and raised its full‑year guidance. "We achieved record second‑quarter sales and posted our 15th consecutive quarter of growth," said CEO Fran Horowitz.
↘️ Kohl's (KSS) -8%. A major retail chain. EPS beat expectations, but sales fell 0.9% year‑over‑year. Investors had been hoping for a clear turnaround in the company's prolonged revenue decline. Kohl's plans to resume buybacks of up to $100 million.
↗️ Photronics (PLAB) +17%. A leading global manufacturer of photomasks, critical components for chip and display production. EPS and revenue beat expectations. According to CEO George Macricostas, the company successfully navigated the temporary delays in semiconductor development releases seen earlier in the year and continues to invest in capacity expansion in the U.S. and South Korea.
📊 Consumer inflation (PCE) for July:
🔘 Month‑over‑month: +0.2% (forecast +0.1%, previous -0.1%);
🔘 Year‑over‑year: +3.7% (forecast +3.6%, previous +3.7%);
🔘 Core PCE year‑over‑year: +3.3% (forecast +3.3%, previous +3.3%).
📊 Q2 2026 GDP: +1.5% q/q (forecast +1.5%, previous +2.1%). | 2 207 |

| 8 | Nike's restructuring drags on. Bitcoin approaches $80k
↘️ Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) -16%. The sporting goods retailer reported earnings per share below expectations and lowered its full‑year guidance. Profit lagged due to the costly integration of Foot Locker, which Dick's acquired in September 2025 for $2.4 billion — selling, general, and administrative expenses surged. Management had previously called the second quarter a period of the most significant pressure.
↘️ On Holding (ONON) -2%, Lululemon Athletica (LULU) -2%. Competitor stocks are falling following DKS's report.
↗️ Bloom Energy (BE) +6%. Congressional financial disclosures showed that Nancy Pelosi opened a significant new position in BE. The company is focused on clean energy technologies.
🪙 Bitcoin reached as high as $81,000 today but has not yet been able to hold above $80,000. BTC is currently trading around $79,000.
↘️ Nike (NKE) -3%. RBC Capital analysts confirmed that the company's restructuring process under CEO Elliott Hill is taking longer than expected.
↗️ Kura Oncology (KURA) +10%. A developer of cancer drugs. CEO Troy Edward Wilson bought 100,000 shares of the company yesterday at an average price of $12.39 per share, for a total of about $1.24 million. Notably, this is Wilson's second large open‑market purchase in recent weeks — on August 17, he bought 100,000 shares for $1.11 million.
↗️ Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) +2%. Raymond James analysts upgraded AMD to "Strong Buy." The firm estimates the server processor market will grow at a 44% CAGR over five years, reaching approximately $201 billion by 2030, including $33.5 billion in traditional data center processors, $83 billion in AI‑head processors, and $85 billion in agentic processors. "AMD offers the strongest combination of direct earnings leverage, datacenter positioning and market-share gains," wrote analyst Simon Leopold. | 2 217 |
| 9 | Top trading ideas for this week
🔴 Crypto stocks: Strategy (MSTR), Coinbase Global (COIN), BitMine (BMNR), Circle Internet Group (CRCL). Trump called on Congress to pass the CLARITY Act. Cryptocurrencies showed strong growth last week, and crypto stocks rebounded from their lows by an average of 25%. Given how far these stocks are from their highs, there is still decent medium‑term potential. We expect elevated volatility.
🔴 Marvell Technology (MRVL). Report on August 27 after market close. One of the beneficiaries of the AI boom in networking chips and data infrastructure. On August 19, Marvell disclosed an agreement with Google to develop semiconductor products. The giant was also granted a warrant to purchase up to 58.97 million MRVL shares at $206.58 per share. Marvell is up 198% over six months, and we expect high volatility after the report.
🔴 Nvidia (NVDA). Report on August 26 after market close. Several significant news items came out over the summer. CEO Jensen Huang announced a new chip for AI agents, the company made progress in efforts to sell chips in China, and it closed deals to finance data center construction. A lot depends on Nvidia's results for the broader market — a significant portion of recent economic growth has been driven by AI infrastructure build‑out, investments in chips, memory technology, energy infrastructure, and even construction equipment. The investments are so large that the Fed is tracking their impact on inflation. Investment banks remain bullish. For example, Bank of America maintains a "Buy" rating with a $350 price target.
🔴 Intuit (INTU). Report on August 25 after market close. A developer of financial and tax software for small businesses and individuals. The stock is down 47% since the start of the year, but it has entered an uptrend over the last month and is starting to recover. Medium‑term prices look quite attractive, but it's better to wait for the report and the company's guidance. In May, the company laid off about 17% of its staff to reallocate resources toward AI. Investors will be evaluating the full‑year guidance, the pace of generative AI integration (including AI assistants in QuickBooks and TurboTax), and margins following the recent restructuring.
🔴 Rubrik (RBRK). Report on August 27 after market close. A cloud‑based cybersecurity and data management company. +99% over six months, with the stock approaching all‑time highs. The company has fully transitioned to a SaaS subscription model, providing stable recurring revenue. We expect strong moves in the stock after the report.
⚠️ High risk, for professionals.

| 10 | Bitcoin +25% for the week. Nvidia earnings and Warsh speech ahead
↗️ Major U.S. indices closed the week in the red: the SPY fell 1.37%, while the Nasdaq lost 2.41%. Top gainers included Merck (+12%) and BHP Group (+11%). The week's rocket was Moderna, which surged 129% following news of its successful melanoma vaccine trial. The most notable declines came in Arm Holdings (-12%), Intel (-12%), and Walmart (-10%).
🪙 The cryptocurrency market showed strong growth, driven by a combination of large-scale inflows from the U.S. Treasury and statements from Trump. On August 19, the President met with representatives of the crypto and financial industries at the White House and once again called on lawmakers to pass a "fair version" of the CLARITY Act. Bitcoin surged 25%, reaching nearly $80,000 and triggering a cascade of short liquidations. BTC is currently trading at $77,350, while Ethereum is at $2,440, up 29% over 7 days.
🏦 On Wednesday, preliminary Q2 U.S. GDP data will be released, followed by the PCE inflation gauge on Friday — a key metric often cited by the Fed. Also on Friday, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh will speak at the annual Jackson Hole Economic Symposium. Investors will be looking for hints on the future trajectory of monetary policy and interest rates.
📄 The most anticipated event of the week is Nvidia's earnings report on Wednesday after the close. Any significant surprise in the report could have ripple effects across the semiconductor and AI markets. Also reporting in the coming days: CrowdStrike, Salesforce, Marvell Technology, Autodesk, Workday, PDD Holdings, Intuit, and Synopsys.

Platform fees are only the tip of the iceberg that traders see. Behind every stock-market trade is a chain of intermediaries:
platform ➡️ custodian (holds the assets) ➡️ liquidity provider (executes orders) ➡️ settlement organization (processes the funds) ➡️ partner banks (deposits/withdrawals).
The more participants involved in the process, the greater the potential for delays — and the longer it can take for funds to move from deposit to purchase.
On UTEX, settlements are built around digital assets. Since there are no banks or fiat currencies in the chain, you get access to all instruments, and the minimum deposit is $0. By comparison, at Interactive Brokers, for example, only professional clients (under PRIIPs rules) can buy ETFs, while margin trading requires at least $2,000 in the account.
🪙 USDT is the single settlement currency within UTEX. Fund your account with crypto or by card, and you’re ready to enter the market — getting from an idea to your first trade takes just minutes. Withdrawals are just as straightforward — you can send USDT directly to your wallet.

↗️ Ross Stores (ROST) +8%. The discount retailer raised its full‑year profit forecast and projected quarterly comparable sales growth above Wall Street expectations.

↗️ BJ's Wholesale Club (BJ) +1%. Total revenue for the wholesale club chain rose 16% for the quarter and beat consensus. Value‑focused shoppers are turning to BJ's for bargains. The company also raised its full‑year EPS guidance | 2 246 |
| 14 | Why funding exists
Traditional futures have an expiration date, so their price typically converges with the underlying asset (such as oil, gas, or metals) as that date approaches.
For example: it's delivery (expiration) day. Real oil is trading at $80, but the futures contract is somehow at $95. Smart traders will sell the expensive future at $95 and simultaneously buy cheap physical oil at $80. Arbitrageurs pocket a nearly risk-free profit and quickly pull the futures price back toward $80.
Perpetual futures (perps) have no expiration — they can stay open for months or years. On top of that, markets can get very bullish, with people strongly convinced the price is going up. If they pile into a perp, its price starts climbing. There's no expiration to keep it in check, so the perp keeps getting more expensive — traders keep buying because the price keeps rising.
Say spot Brent is at $90 and the Brent perp is at $100. Arbitrageurs step in again: they buy oil (or spot) at $90 and short the perp at $100. Even if oil rallies to $120, their spot position gains +$30, the perp loses –$20, and they still walk away with +$10 in profit.
Thousands of traders will spot that opportunity, and the prices will converge. But what if the gap is tiny?
Say spot is $90 and the perp is $90.10. The potential profit is just $0.10. Factor in fees, slippage, and risk, and most arbitrageurs won't bother.
That gap can stick around for weeks. That's why exchanges introduced funding: if the perp is consistently above spot, longs pay shorts. Shorting becomes more attractive, and the perp comes back down. And vice versa.
In this way these two mechanisms work together: arbitrage closes big gaps, and funding keeps small imbalances from lingering too long.

| 15 | Crypto comes alive, BTC above $71K. Alibaba's profit hit by AI investments
↘️ Advance Auto Parts (AAP) -16%. The auto parts, accessories, batteries, and maintenance products retailer reported revenue that missed expectations, and its fiscal 2026 guidance disappointed investors.
↗️ Deere (DE) +3%. The agricultural equipment manufacturer reported higher profit and sales. Growth in construction equipment production helped offset weakness in the agricultural segment.
↗️ Ultragenyx (RARE) +6%. A developer of innovative treatments for rare and ultra‑rare genetic diseases. The FDA granted accelerated approval to GENGLYCOS — a gene therapy for glycogen storage disease type I in patients aged eight and older. For the first time, the therapy targets the root cause of the disease rather than just managing symptoms. Chief Medical Officer Eric Crombez noted that the therapy's ability to regulate glucose levels could potentially reduce the risk of severe or life‑threatening hypoglycemia in patients. Several analysts have already raised their price targets on RARE.
↗️ Webull (BULL) +10%. The digital broker reported its strongest quarterly results since going public. EPS and revenue beat Wall Street consensus.
↘️ Wolfspeed (WOLF) -11%. The semiconductor manufacturer reported a much larger quarterly loss than expected.
↘️ CrowdStrike (CRWD) -2%. The cybersecurity company saw its CTO depart to launch an AI‑focused fund in the cybersecurity space, according to Bloomberg. This is a significant management change for CrowdStrike as it operates in a rapidly evolving market increasingly shaped by AI.
↘️ Walmart (WMT) -5%. EPS and revenue beat expectations, but U.S. comparable store sales — a key measure of whether existing stores are selling more — rose only 2.6%, the slowest quarterly growth since 2020. Excluding new pharmacy pricing rules, growth would have been 3.4%, still below the 3.8% forecast.
↘️ Alibaba Group (BABA) -5%. EPS came in below expectations, while revenue was roughly in line. AI‑related capex was higher than expected, significantly squeezing operating margin. Revenue from the cloud and AI‑powered computing services segment grew 45% year‑over‑year. Additional negative pressure came from multiple securities fraud class‑action lawsuits filed against the company in recent weeks.

| 17 | Moderna's breakthrough in skin cancer treatment – stock doubles in premarket
🚀 Moderna (MRNA) +82%, Merck (MRK) +8%. The pharma giants announced that Moderna's mRNA vaccine Intismeran, in combination with Merck's immunotherapy Keytruda, demonstrated success in a late‑stage clinical trial for skin cancer treatment. Interim results showed that Intismeran achieved a reduction in melanoma recurrence rates and prevented the spread of cancer to other parts of the body. The combination confirmed the efficacy of a new personalized treatment approach. Intismeran and Keytruda could become a new treatment option for the deadliest form of skin cancer.
↗️ Estée Lauder (EL) +6%. The cosmetics company reported better‑than‑consensus results and forecast 2027 profit above expectations. Estée Lauder is banking on sustained demand for premium fragrances and strong performance in key markets as it executes its turnaround strategy. “In addition, we are raising our outlook for an even stronger adjusted operating margin, as we double down on our strengths to further diversify growth across product categories and geographies, including accelerating growth in North America,” said CEO Stéphane de La Faverie.
↘️ Target (TGT) -2%. Second‑quarter results beat expectations. Target is progressing with its turnaround plan: the retailer is reorganizing its grocery sections, adding more snacks, and introducing new Lego sets. The company reported that it is winning back customers weary of inflation who had shifted to competitors in recent years in search of lower prices on food and other essentials. Full‑year guidance was raised.
↘️ Lowe's Companies (LOW) -2%. The home improvement retailer cut its full‑year sales forecast. CEO Ellison cited pressure from sluggish spending on big‑ticket projects. Due to elevated loan rates, homeowners have scaled back on costly renovations and remodels, while higher mortgage rates and rising home prices are weighing on the broader real estate market.
↗️ Analog Devices (ADI) +2%. The chipmaker reported better‑than‑expected results and issued quarterly guidance above consensus.
↘️ La‑Z‑Boy (LZB) -16%. The furniture manufacturer, creator of the legendary reclining chair, reported EPS and revenue below expectations due to an unexpected decline in sales.
↘️ Mercury Systems (MRCY) -9%. A manufacturer of electronics and computing systems for the aerospace and defense sectors. Record order volumes, but EPS came in below expectations. Investors are concerned about the pace of profitability recovery and near‑term margin pressure.
↗️ Keysight Technologies (KEYS) +1%. The software and hardware manufacturer reported above‑expectations results, with quarterly guidance also beating consensus.
↗️ SK Hynix (SKHY) +3%. Bloomberg reports that the South Korean memory chipmaker announced a $29 billion buyback and raised its dividend. | 2 241 |

↘️ Fabrinet (FN) -9%. A manufacturer of optical enclosures, precision optics, electromechanical, and electronic devices. Revenue and EPS beat expectations, but investors focused on weaker profitability metrics, negative free cash flow, and soft near‑term profit guidance.
🚀 Amylyx Pharmaceuticals (AMLX) +31%. The company announced that its Phase 3 LUCIDITY study of avexitide for post‑bariatric hypoglycemia met its primary endpoint. Amylyx plans to file a new drug application with the FDA by the end of 2026. The FDA had previously granted avexitide Breakthrough Therapy and Orphan Drug designations for this indication. Post‑bariatric hypoglycemia affects about 8% of U.S. residents who have undergone surgery, approximately 160,000 people. There are currently no FDA‑approved treatments for this condition.
↗️ Duolingo (DUOL) +4%. Davidson upgraded the language‑learning platform from "Neutral" to "Buy" and raised its price target to $160. Citi also raised its target from $101 to $140. Duolingo also announced the acquisition of London‑based animation studio Animade.
↘️ Klarna (KLAR) -18%. The Swedish fintech reported better‑than‑expected EPS and revenue but lowered its full‑year revenue guidance to a range of $4.08–$4.16 billion, significantly below the consensus of $4.42 billion. Klarna also announced the departure of CFO Niklas Neglén and CMO David Sandström in early 2027.
↗️ Home Depot (HD) +2%. The largest home improvement retailer reported solid results, with EPS and revenue above expectations. The company reaffirmed its 2026 guidance. | 2 233 |
| 20 | Top trading ideas for this week
🔴 Estée Lauder (EL). Report on August 19 before market open. The cosmetics company's shares rose in May when Estée Lauder walked away from buying Spain's Puig. A slow uptrend has been forming on the chart since April. Overall, the medium‑term potential looks decent, and prices are still reasonable. If the report doesn't disappoint, it could be a buy.
🔴 Deere & Co (DE). Report on August 20 before market open. The stock has shown decent intraday moves after the last two earnings reports. For those who like expensive, volatile stocks.
🔴 Klarna Group (KLAR). Report on August 18 before market open. The Swedish fintech went public on September 10, 2025, at $40 per share. By February 2026, the stock bottomed around $12 and has since recovered to $20. The BNPL ("Buy Now, Pay Later") model is the company's core product. Clients can split payments in online stores into several interest‑free equal installments or opt for short‑term financing. There is still medium‑term potential, but it's better to wait for the report. The stock gained 26% over the quarter following strong results in the previous report. Not for intraday trading.
🔴 Target (TGT). Report on August 19 before market open. One of the largest U.S. retail chains. We have repeatedly recommended taking a closer look at this stock for the medium term. TGT is up 58% since the start of the year – congratulations to those who followed the advice. Unfortunately, prices are no longer as attractive, but Target often moves well and predictably intraday after earnings.
🔴 Baidu (BIDU). Report on August 18 before market open.
Alibaba Group (BABA). Report on August 20 before market open. Two iconic Chinese companies. Completely unpredictable, but they can be highly volatile after earnings reports.
