Goldman Stays Golden ✨

The online personal styling business might’ve been a solid bet during the ZIRP era, but it has really taken a beating in the post-pandemic world. Today, we heard from Stitch Fix and ThredUp, battling for survival in the public markets. 📦

First up, Stitch Fix reported a $0.29 per share loss on $330.40 million in revenues. Both numbers missed estimates of a $0.22 loss and $330.88 million. Looking ahead, the company’s third-quarter revenue guidance of $300 to $310 million also missed expectations. 🔻

It’s another day, which means investors and traders were buying anything in the semiconductor space that isn’t tied down. Let’s see what you missed. 👇

First up, chip-equipment company Applied Materials soared to new all-time highs after citing “artificial intelligence” momentum during its earnings call. Adjusted earnings per share and revenues both topped expectations, while its current-quarter expectations also beat estimates. 🏭

Zoom Video Communications hasn’t made headlines for many good reasons lately, scraping the bottom of its range as a public company as investors look for other opportunities. However, the stock is jumping today on better-than-expected results, so let’s take a look. 👇

The video chat software vendor’s adjusted earnings per share of $1.22 on $1.15 billion in revenues topped expectations of $1.15 and $1.13 billion. Revenue growth remains anemic, rising just 3% YoY, but the company’s cost-cutting has helped it drive positive earnings vs. last year’s loss. 

Palo Alto Networks is getting pounded by sellers after hours, dragging the rest of the sector down with it. Let’s see what happened. 👇

The cybersecurity giant reported adjusted earnings per share of $1.46 on revenues of $1.98 billion. Unfortunately, that’s where the good news ended.
