Did These 3 Magnificent Seven Stocks Deliver Tricks or Treats This Earnings Season?

    Date:

    So far, the third-quarter earnings season has been full of treats. According to FactSet, 37% of S&P 500 companies have reported. Of those, 75% have beaten earnings estimates and 59% have beaten sales estimates.

    But with 170 S&P 500 companies releasing earnings this week, we’re seeing more tricks than treats. This includes reports from five of the Magnificent Seven: Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL), Amazon.com, Inc. (AMZN), Apple, Inc. (AAPL), Meta Platforms, Inc. (META) and Microsoft Corporation (MSFT).

    Now, one member, AI chip leader NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA), reports on November 21. And the other Magnificent Seven stock, Tesla, Inc. (TSLA), reported last week. (We reviewed TSLA’s earnings in last Thursday’s Market 360.)

    Wall Street pays close attention to their earnings because the Magnificent Seven stocks aren’t your average tech stocks – they were huge benefactors at the beginning of the artificial intelligence craze. Not to mention that they make up a significant percentage of the S&P 500’s market capitalization.

    The big question on Wall Street’s mind is: Are their investments in AI paying off in profits?

    So, in today’s Market 360, we’ll dig into Alphabet’s, Meta Platforms’ and Microsoft’s earnings reports. I’ll also share if they are good buys following their results. (We will review Amazon and Apple during your Saturday Market 360, so be on the lookout for that.)
